Look at all Tw0-DOllar Bills.

Government detectives are at their wits end over new and exceedingly dan gerous counterfeit two-dollar bill, which has already gained wide circulation, and is of such expert workmanship as to de- ceive the sharpest of eyes.
 It Is believed that the headquarters of the counterfeiters is in New York-in any event that city is the disturbing cen ter There are hundreds of them about and new complaints come in daily,
 The bill is an imitation of the two dol lar silver certificate. It purports to be oi department series 1806 check letter B 1863. The Hancock portrait is poorly executed, and the color of the seal is 2 bright red instead of dark red of the genuine bill It may also be detected by the fact that the ''i'' in register is not dotted, nor is the ''t'' in states crossed.
 By noting these characteristics trades men may save themselves from loss.
