Hereafter Anna must find faithful

the story of her sisters insanity, she
sent strongly worded denial of it to
every paper in the region claiming that
the report was "a cruel outrage"

EVERYONE may not know that the
Bank of England notes are made from
new white linen cuttings-never from
anything that has been worn. So
carefully is the paper prepared that
even the number of dips into the pulp
made by each workman is registered
on dial by machinery, and the sheets
are counted and booked to each person
through whose hands they pass. They
are made at Laverstroke, in Hampshire,
and are printed within the building,
there being an elaborate arrangement
for making them so that each note of
the same denomination shall differ in
some particular from the others.

ing her example. and have gained dis
