The notes are printed in long mar

vary from Is to $1,000, the largest note
now printed. They cost about two
thirds of 1c each. a single impression
completes the note. specially num-
beled, dated and signed by the cash
Ter. The notes are delivered in pairs,
slid upon q small table at the back Of
the press, whore an employe stands to
examine each one, and see that it is
correctly numbered and perfectly
printed. The numbers run backward,
so that each bundle of 10000 lie in
their natural order when they are
taken away. Thus. the two notes on
each sheet are numbered, say GIGS
and 111GS. and the next pair are G7167
and 77167. The bundles are cut in
two by an ordinary cutter. and it
thus happens that every Bunk of En-
gland note has three rough edges
and one clean one. Great reliance, as
a check upon countcrfeiting, is placed
upon the paper itself, the engraving,
as compared with the American bank
note standard. being less elaborate.
The paper, specially made from pure
linen rags, is strangely thin and re-
markably tough. 1t has peculiar
shade of Wilderness impossible to des-

is made by Il secret process at a
