The Silk Threadsin BaMk Notes.

The paper upon which bank notes art
printed is called obstructive paper, y
because used exclusively by the Govern
ment for the printing of bonds and notes
Tue mills where it is manufactured are
ut Glen Falls, Westchester County, Penn.
An agent of the Treasury Department
receives the paper direct from the hands
Of the manufacturer, and every prccau-
ton is taken to keep any of it from being
lost.
When this obstructive paper" is being
made, scraps of red silk threads are
mixed with the pulp. in a big tank. '',Tht
finished material is conducted to wire
cloth without passing through any screen
which might retain the slkcn threads
Next, an arrangement above the wire
cloth scatters IL shower of blue silk
threads, which fall upon the paper as it
is being formed. The side upon which
the blue silk is deposited is used for the
backs of notes, each thread being so
deeply embedded as to remain perma-
ncntly fixed. The smooth side of the
paper, that in which the red threads
alone are seen, is used for the front Of
the note. Each OF these sheets is reg

How Tea Came to Grow.

ever think how tea came to grove Tell
your next visitor the sto,y. ~ Persian
prince, on his way to meet his bctrothed,
vowed that he would not sleep until he
saw her. After travelling seven days he
stopped to rest under shade tree, and
there, being no longer able to resist the
temptation, he fell into a sound sleep.
When he wakencd up he was so sorry
that he cut off his cyclids and threw
them on the ground. From them grew
the tea plant. 1t is rather unfortunate
that the story stops here, because it
would be interesting to know what the
lady thought Of Il sweetheart without
eyelids, and whether it would be posi-
bic for them to grow again.-Boston

minced with two or three sprigs of pars-
ley; large tomato is peeled and sliced :;
the onion, garlic and parsley arc put in

fish is fried in the same oil; next the to-
mato is added, with Il pinch of powder

for about half an hour. Meanwhile toast
