Her husband was General Novikoff,
and her brother, Colonel Nicholas Kir-
eef. was one of the best soldiers who
fell in the via-Turkish war OF 1876.
In the battle of Zaitchar. July Is, he
was leading Servian brigade in a
charge when he was shot in the left arm
and neck. A hasty bandaglng detained
him but q few minutes and he pushed
on till his right arm was shattered. He
shouted Forward! Forward, and
moved on till ball penetrated his lungs
The Servians were repulsed, and two
brave soldiers tried to carry him on the
field, but the Turks concentrated their
fire on them and killed both. They
mutilated Colonel Kireefs corpse and
exhibited 1t about their camp, and their
commander, Osman Pasha, refused to
deliver it under flag Of truce:

SOW FRENCH BANK BILLS ARE MADE.

More Than -Four Hundred Persons Arc
Employed in Manufacturing Them.
All bills are issued by the Bank of
France. which carries on the whole proc
ess of manufacture, including even that
Of the paper on which they are printed
and tho ink used. The paper factory is
at La Ferte-sous-J ouarre, where linen
rags are SO treated as to produce paper
of a peculiar quality. This SPECIAL pa
per is made, inspected, cut into sheets
and shipped to Paris under the care Of
two Of the bank officials, who are held
responsible for every sheet.
The sheets are packed in bundles of
1000 in each, and are printed in the
basement of the bank building in Paris.
As with the blank paper, the bills, in
every stage of fabrication, are in charge
of some official, who must account for
every one which has come into his hands,
either by showing it, or q receipt given
for it by the official to whom he has
handed it over. AS the bank has some
times printed 400, 900 bills day, and at
such periods employs about 400 persons
in the printing department, strict &C
counts are necessary to prevent loss, and
an elaborate system of huinbugging and
checking is used.
A series of bills consists Of 1000, which
are numbered from to 1000, and TWEEN
ty-fve series, lettered A, B, c, ETC., and
tied up together, under the name of an
"alphabet." After each operation, the
bills are verified by women, who sign
their names on the band placed around
the bundles. AS there are nine opera
tons, there must be nine notifications,
and the final veriication is repeated, by
a fresh set Of inspectors, so that nothing
can be overlooked. After the bills are
complete they are delivered to the secre-
tary of the bank, who examines them
and gives receipt for them, discharging
the head Of the printing department from
further responsibility. They are then
placed in Che vaults and are withdrawn
for issue only by order Of the governors
of the bank.
The principal difficulty in regulating
the accounts comes from the defective
bills. No bill is allowed to pass the in
spectors which shows spot, an uneven
margin, defect in printing or any other
imperfection, and the bills thrown out
must be recorded in the books with quite
as much accuracy as those which pass
successfully to the final stage. Every
bill rejected by the inspectors is stamped,
and it's place in The series filed by
check. The stamped bills go to the sec
rotary Of the bank, who puts them I'M
der lock and key, and new bills, CORE
spending to the checks, are printed, and
credit is given to the paper mandatory
for the paper necessary to make these.
The accounts of the s'faulted" bills
are carried through the books and for
verifcation the stamped bills them
selves are kept for five years. At the
end of that time, if there has been no
question about them, the regents Of the
bank, the secretary, the examiners, the
chiefs of the printing department, and
the chiefs of the department of bill &C
counts join in signing an order, in pur-
suance Of which they are taken from the
vaults and destroyed.-Le Genie Civile.

Wooden Legs.

Who first invented wooden legs? Vul
can was a cripple, and in consequence
of his difficulty in walking he is said to
have made himself an artificial support
of gold; but, as Mr.. Thoms pointed out
long ago, gold is not for every cripple,
and every myth is backed by reality.
Again, the devil, as represented in the
drawings and engravings of the Middle
Ages, is a compound of Pluto and Vul-
can. The latter was elected from Olym-
pus, the devil was cast out of heaven
Vulcan was frequently figured with a
beard and pointed cap.
In the edition of Tyndale's New Testa-
ment printed by Jugge in 1899 there is
awood cut representing the devil sowing
tares, and wearing not only the Vulca-
nian beard and pointed cap, but also a
wooden leg. Another medieval repre-
sentation of the devil with a wooden leg
may be found in one of the paintings on
the panels of the pulpit in the ancient
little church of Heligoland. 1t is only
fair, however, to point out that the arti.
fetal support in the Tyndale wood cut
resembles more a clumsy, one legged
stool, upon which the lame leg appears
to be doubled up at the knee, than a sub.
stituted wooden limb. After all this
identification, so far as regards costume
and lameness, of the medieval devil and
the ancient Vulcan, although it opens
up curious field of speculation to those
who are learned in matters of compare.
tive mythology, yet throws no certain
light on the question as to when the
wooden leg as we know it-a complete
artificial substitute for lost limb-wa
first invented. All the Year Round.

The Clever Bheel Robbers,

1t is said that once, before the English
had become used to the maneuvers of
the robbers in India, an officer with a
party of horse was chasing small body
of Bheel robbers and was fast overtak
ing them. Suddenly the robbers ran be-
hind rock, or some such obstacle, which
hid them for a moment, and when the
soldiers came up the men had mysteri-
ously disappeared. After an unavailing
search, the officer ordered his men to
dismount beside a clump of scorched
and withered trees, and, the day being
very hot, he took off his helmet and hung
it on branch by which he was standing.
The branch in question turned out to
be the leg of Bheel, who burst into a
scream of laughter and flung the aston
ished officer to the ground. The clump
of scorched trees suddenly became trans
formed into men, and the whole party
dispersed in different directions before
the Englishmen could recover from
their surprise, carrying with them the
officers helmet by way of ophy.-Har-

There is in the city of Brooklyn at the
house of Mrs. A. A. Golden table, the
history of which, without doubt, will in
terest many an old New Yorker. 1t was
made by Peter Cooper, which lends it
the more interest.
1t was at this table that he and his
wife ate their first dinner after they
were married.
In appeai$nce it is much smaller than
the modern dining table. 1t has two
leaves and two end pieces that are at
tached to the leaves by hinges. In all it
is about four feet square. The legs are
long and slender. The wood is of cherry,
and, old as the table is, so carefully has
it been kept by Mrs. Golden there is no
sign of scratch or mar on it.
In his early ventures Peter Cooper was
often unsuccessful. 1t was in 1916, when
he was living at Hampstead, Long Is
land, that he failed in business. A few
days after his failure he held an auction
sale of his household goods, among them
being this table. Mrs. Mary Golden, a
mother-in-law of Mrs. A. A. Golden,
bought it for few dollars. She after
ward used it as dinner table. At her
death, in 1865, she willed it to the pres
ent owner, Mrs A. A. Golden. The Ia.
BILE is one which Mr.. Cooper made with
his own hands, and, it is said, valued il
very highly.-Exchange.
