The Oldest Bank Note.

The trustees of the British Museum
have got hold of great curiosity in the
shape of a Chinese bank note printed in
the middle of the fourteenth century,
several years before the establishment
of the first European bank (said to be
the bank established at Barcelona in
14O1) and three centuries before the
establishments of the Bank of Stockholm
in 1868. The Chinese had bank notes at
a much earlier date, for Marco Polo saw
some of them, printed on the inner bark
of trees, before the end of the thir-
teenth century. 1t is remarkable that
the Chinese had invented all the four
principal modern instruments - the
compass, printing. gunpowder, and
paper currency-long before Europe
had any of them, and yet that they re-
mained almost useless tools in the
hands Of that acute but barren-minded
people. Even their artillery, which
they used centuries before Europe knew
any thing of artillery, appears TO haYs
been of hardly any value to them. They
never seem to have put out their ideas
to interest. but kept them wrapped up
in napkins till they forgot their exist,

noise on the veranda which ran along

Of thieves, and therefore had no arms

with my face not over thirty inches from

into mine. For half a minute it seemed

Preventing stoves From Rusting.

To prevent Russia or planished iron
from rusting during the warm, damp
weather is rather difficult, says Metal
Worker, unless the iron is kept from
the air. AS the iron is a rapid conduc-
tor of heat the moisture in the air is
liable to be condensed on its surface,
which soon forms rust, and SO ruins the
appearance of the iron. Wrapping the
iron in paper or cloth and putting it in
a dry place will keep away much of the
moisture, but the safest way is to cover
the surface of the iron with some sub
stance that is waterproof. If the iron
is covered with a thin coat of boiled
linseed oil, the oil will soon dry and
form covering which can be re-
moved with turpentine when re-
quired. Varnishes of various kinds
have been used for the purpose, and
while they will protect the iron from
rust they are difficult to remove and
will show any scratches. A cheap var
nish can be made by adding six ounces
of resin to one gallon of gasoline, and
by scraping up a small quantity of par
affine and adding to the above, the var
nish win have more body.

MY LITTLE NEIGHBoR.

She stood at the open window,
A picture sweet and fair;
Ny neighbor' little daughter,
A lassie with nut brown hair.
A bonnie, winsome lassie,
With a face like blossom sweet.
+ She stood at the open window,
Watching the busy street.
Homesiek and sad and lonely,
Atthe close of the summer day,
stood at my open window,
On the other side Of the way.
And / saw the little maiden,
So near me, and yet so far;
In her innocent, childish beauty,
AS pure as the angels are.
And smile of radiant beauty,
AS she saw me, flashed over her face,
Like ray Of golden sunshine
That lights up some darkened place,
No more was l sad and lonely,
And gone were the shadows gray,
For that smile of friendly greeting
Had banished the gloom away.
Oh bonnie little maiden,
II wish of mine could bring
Earth's choicest, richest blessings
To thee, on fortunes wing,
How free from care or sorrow
Thy happy life would be-
Ny neighbor's little daughter.
The lassie who smiled at me.
