THE LATEST.
ANOTHER INNOVATION.
Banking System Introduced In One Of tn
Department Stores.

Banking System Introduced In One of the
Department Stores.
A banking department is the latest
novelty in a large uptown dry goods
store, says New York exchange.
Its object is to be convenience to
the patrons of the establishment and
residents of the neighborhood rather
than to make money for the firm.
1t is to all purposes bank, though
not being chartered it cannot be digni-
fed with this name.
Deposits are made and checks drawn
IN just the same way as they are at any
bank, so that the customer visiting the
store can transact all her business
under one roof.
She can furnish her home, provision
it, purchase her clothes and those of
the rest of her family, have her photo
graph taken and enjoy a delicious
meal, buy flowers for her lawn, take a
nap and pay for all by check drawn
on the proprietors of the store.
The convenience of this banking de-
partment does not end here, for when
the bars and shutters have been put up
on regular banks money is still passing
in and out the teller's window.
Three o'clock goes by without notice
and the fatigued shopper suddenly real
ICES she has forgotten to have check
cashed. This she can have done as late
as five o'clock on other days and nine D.
m. on Saturdays.
Neighboring tradespeople also avail
themselves of this convenience.
Letters of credit to any part of the
world are issued by this shoppers
bank, and foreign money is bought
and sold there at the current rates of
exchange.
Passage on any of the transatlantic
steamers may also be purchased there
and cabins selected in the same place
where steamer chairs and rugs are
bought.

PATTERNS FOR THE BLIND,
Recently Patented Invention of Miss
Marie Stockman, of Germany.

Recently Patented Invention of Miss
Marie Stockman, of Germany.
Miss Marie Stockman, of Germany,
who is said to be now in this country,
has recently patented a series of
printed designs in raised type, by
means of which workers who are blind
are enabled readily to count the
stitches and to determine the colors
needed for any special pattern. In
fact, these designs are much the same
as those with which we are familiar in
Berlin wool work, cross and Gobelin
stitches, the small blocks forming the
design being raised and nodded in
various ways to mark the varieties in
color. If canvas in one of its MANY
forms be chosen, or any other material
having raised thread which the
worker can count by sliding the finger
or needle across it, an intelligent per-
son will with a little preliminary
guidance, soon be able to work cross,
fiat, long and short, tassel and Gobelin
stitches with due attention to colors
and shades of color. 1t will then be
open to her to make borders suitable
for portieres, mantel pieces, besides
cushions, rugs and smaller articles of
many sorts. Hitherto, though many Of
the blind seem to have an extra sense
to enable them to distinguish color by
the feel of the woods and silks, they can
only work with the teacher at hand to
tell them the number of stitches to be
worked with each tint, and the intro.
duction of these raised patterns should
prove great help.

hypothetical Trolley Tunnels.

The trolley car party is as pop.
ular here as in other cities, but it
remained for a Baltimore wit to in
vent an attractive novelty for the
trolley ride. Last week a party
of forty, comprising due proper
ton Of gay youths and maidens
properly chaperoned, started for a
ride to Glyndon. On the return
trip a member suddenly left his
seat and had a long whispered
consultation with the motorman,
whose subject he refused to divulge
to his curious companions. although
stimulated by the rnischievous
twinkle in his eye, they piled him
with questions. On merrily went
the car till, at once, the motorman
sung out:
cat the top of the hill look out
for the tunnel"
The mystified members of the
party looked at him and one anoth-
er in amazement, for no tunnel
could they remember on the road.
But when the top of the hill was
reached they shot into quick dark.
ness, for the motorman had turned
off the electric lights. A peal of
laughter rose as the joke was
seized, and then all over the car
arose sounds of an osculatory ma
ture which the perplexed chaper
ones could not locate, but were
pacifed when told the girls were
only kissing their hands in defer.

at Lake Auburn with long silk line and
a hook OF his own manufacture. In the
afternoon Of one May day he hooked a

three or four times and then broke the
line under the keel of the boat One day
last week he was up there fishing, and
about 500 yards south of the island hooked
salmon which he pulled in by the aid of

The Morning Bird.

A bird sat IN the maple tree,
And this was the song he sung to me:
sob, little boy, awake, arise!
The sun Is high in the morning skies;
The brooks aplsy IN the pasture lot
And wondereth that the little boy
1t loseth dearly cometh not
To share its turbulence and joy;
The grass hath kisses cool and sweet
For truant little brown bare feet.
So come, O child, awake, arise!
The sun is high in the morning skiea."
So from the yvnder maple tree
The bird kept singing unto me,
But that was very lag ago.
did not think. did not know,
Else woald no. have longer slept
And dreauit the precious hours awayI
Else would from my bed have leapt
To greet another happy day
4 day untoached OF care and ruth,
With sweet companionship Of youth
The dear old friends which you andI
Knew in the happy years gone By.
Still in the maple can be heard
the music OF the morning bird,
And still the song is of the day
That runneth DER with childish play,
Still Of each pleasant old time place
And Of the old time friends knew
The pool where hid the furtive dace,
The lot the brook went scampering
through,
The mill. the lane, the Bellaower tree
That used TO love to shelter me,
And all those others knew then,
But which cannot know again.
Alas. from yonder maple tree
The morning bird sings not to me,
Else would his ghostly voice prolong
An evening, not morning song.
And he would tell of each dear spot
knew SO well and cherished then,
As ali forgetting, not forgot,
By him who would be young again.
o child, the voice from yonder tree
Calleth to you and not 10 me.
So wake and know those friendships all
Iwould 20 God could recall.
