that, said the cashier. but these CONS

Well said I. they are filthy looking
and they are filthy They are not all
there either. There are pieces clipped out
OF most of them. In proportion there IS
less Of the original bill In any one OF them
than there is OF original gold in any one
OF the gold pieces That is true said the
cashier. but the Government has stamped
on each that II is worth 50 "Ihen you
admit that the Government stamp on Il
piece OF paper worth nothing makes IL
worth face value and you stu insist
that the Government stamp on piece OF

That's II exactly said the cashier. Now.
II YOU read what II says on the face or
