FOREIGN PAPER MONEY.

Bank Note Currency of Various
Countries in the Old and New
Worlds. =
The Bank Of England note is five
inches by eight in dimensions, and is
printed in black ink on Irish linen wa
ter lined paper, plain white, with rag
ged edges. The notes of the Banque
de France are made of white, water
lined paper, printed in blue and
black, with numerous NEUROLOGICAL
and categorical pictures, and running
in denomination from the 25f note to
the l.OOOf. South American curren-
cy, in most countries, is about the
size and appearance of American bills
except that cinnamon brown and slate
blue are the prevailing colors, and
that Spanish and Portuguese are the
prevailing language engraved on the
face. The German currency is rather
artistic. The bills are printed in green
and black. They run in denomina-
tions from five to 1000 marks. Their
later bills are printed on silk fibre
paper.
The Chinese paper currency is red,
white and yellow, with gilt lettering
and gorgeous little hand-drawn de-
vices. The bills to the ordinary finan-
'cier, might pass for washing bills, but
they are worth good money in the
f1owery kingdom. Italian notes
are of all sizes, shapes and colors.
The smaller 'bills-fve- and ten lire
notes printed ON white paper in
pink, blue, and carmine inks and or
namented with a finely engraved Wig
'nette of King Humbert. The1OOruble
note Russia is barred from top to
bottom with all thecolorsof the rain
bow, blended as when shown through
a prism. In the center, in bold relief,
stands a large finely vignette of the
Empress Catherine /. This is in black.
The other engraving is not at all in
tricate or elaborate, but is we'll done
in dark and light brown and black
inks. The Australian bill is printed
on light.colored thick paper, which
shows none 'of the silk fiber marks or
geometric lines used in American cur
rency as aprot ection against counter.

A BURGLARS STORY.
One Man Who Took a Mean AdVant-
age of Him,

occasionally" said a retired burg
lar to the New York Sun reporter, "a
man transfers to himself in a single
night the accumulations of another
mans lifetime, but these instances are
very rare, and nothing could be furth-
er from the truth than the idea that
burglary is a quick and easy road to
wealth. The fact is that the great
majority of burgl ars make but a scant
living, and to make even that they
must encounter many difficulties and
dangers. The burglar reward, what
ever it may be, is never commensurate
to the risks he takes. >2 -.---
II have myself acquired some pro-
perty, but if I had my life to live over
again should choose some other oc--
cupation than burglary. Indeed, whene
you come to consider theinconvenient
hours and the general worry and un-
certainty OF that business, the wonder
is that anybody should ever 60 into
it. If a man is at all inclined to be
sensitive he should certainly keep out
of it.
II remember, long time ago, going
late one night into a room in which
there was one man sleeping. His
clothes were OH a chair near the head
of the bed. I was bending over those
clothes and was about to take them.
out into the hall, when the man sud-
denly woke up.
without an instant's hesitation he.
threw his arms around me. l was
young then and strong, but this man,
was four times as strong as I was. i
think he could have crushed me if he
wanted to, and he put me out OF the
house with the greatest ease. But be-
fore he did that he carried me over
to the bureau and turned up the light.
AS he looked at me my watch-chain
caught his eye, and do you know that
that man took my watch and chain
and kept them?"

'Unpleasantly Affectionate.

An English traveller in Persia had

of a DINNER and a bed was attractive

INSPIRED THE "CABIN."

A Newl Story as to the Origin OF
Mrs. Stoves Great Novel.
1t is not generally known, but it is
a fact, nevertheless, that Mrs.
Harriet Beecher Stowe got the in
ception other "Uncle TOMS Cabin
while on avisit to the family of thelate
Colonel Marshall Key, at Washington,
this county, says Maysvine, KY,
special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
She had become acquainted with
one OF Colonel Keys daughters while
shewas attending school in the city
in which the great novelist resided.
Afterward Mrs. Stowe visited Miss
Key and spent the summer with her.
Her predictions being against
slavery, she was on the outlook for
anything she could make use of
against it. Frequent sales of slaves
took place in the old court house
yard, and Mrs. Stowe had q good
opportunity to see and hear how
such affairs were conducted and from
other things to note the working of
the institution of slavery. Her fertile
soon seized upon such q
fruitful theme, and the result was
"Uncle TOMS Cabin" a story that
had such a run as few works of fiction
have ever attained.
When the dramatized play was first
produced in New York city, part Of
the scenic performance embraced a
reproduction 6f the old Court house
yard at WASHINGTON, as well as
Taylor's store on the adjoining corner,

could notssee distinctly as her own
name was called; but she arose, strug-
Cling for composure, some one took
her hand and accompanied her
to the front, where loud
burst OF applause greeted her, and
gave her time to regain self-control.
Yet, her voice was pathetically trem-
ulous to the close OF the impassioned
plea she put forth far Recognition;
and, when she closed, she found her
seat amid renewed applause.
Then Bell Prices. name was called,
and she saw that it was Belle who
now occupied the seat next to
her.
Was it she who had escorted her?
The question asked itself again and
again as she listened to the essay in q
tumult OF feeling.
But she was not prepared for what
followed.
AS Belle took her seat, Mr.. Price
arose to award the prize.
Gin awarding the prize" he said,
"the judges have considered it as
lying between the last two contest
e1uoo, UuC Olle Has uQuOrdDly WILL
drawn, stating to the committee that
her effort was assisted by the criti-
cism of another. Therefore, we feel
that the prize is due in all respects to
-Calista Weston"
C'listy stared at Belle in amazement,
but the latter only nodded; while Mr..
Price continued, after the storm of
hand-clapping had ceased
'"This is not all. A gold medal has
been privately prepared for the one
who has led her class in scholarship
and department. as she also leads it
from her seat today upon this stage,
in magnanimity and heroism-Calista
Weston"
There was no doubt this time. 1t
certainly was Belle WHO escorted her
to the front to receive her honors. 1t
was Belle who stood by her through
the misty closing ceremonies, and it
was Belle who afterward introduced
her to those who gathered round for
congratulations, as
"My friend, Calista Weston"
"Can such people be anybody?"
whispered Dave Howe, mischieviously,
in Bellies ear, later.
"Being somebody rests with the
person, after ALL" she quickly replied;
"and Calista has proven that true
worth will compel recognition."-S
