BURNS AND HIS MARY.

He sang of friendship and duty
And manhood all creeds above,
OF the dear green earth in her beauty
And the dewy glory of love,
But the sweetest, tenderest chord he gave
Was the requiem poured DER his lost
loves grave.
Then life was but futile longing
And earth but a beauteous tomb
But songs. through the silence were
thronging, /.
And glory dwelt in the gloom,
And sorrow the harper skilled and strong,
From the breaking heart drew it's sweet
est song.
When thy grief had heavenward striven
In melody trembling to prayer
Did thy Mary remember in heaven
Her love by the braes of Ayr?
We know not, but earth that heard thee
sing
Must cherish thy song to her latest spring
Deep heart, so lavish in loving!
Oh, hayward and broken heart!
AS safe from our shallow reproving
AS deaf to our praise thou art
Yet thy. song shall thrill us while love
shall last
And thy sorrow move us till death be past.

PAPER MONEY!.
The Kinds OF Currency That Are Used by
Foreign Countries.

The Kinds OF Currency That Are Used by
Foreign Countries.
The Bank of England note is inches
by in dimensions and is printed in
black ink Oh Irish linen water lined pa
per, plain white, with ragged edges.
The notes of the Banque de France are
made of white water lined paper, print
ed in blue and black, with numerous
neurological and allegorical pictures,
and running in denomination from the
% franc note to the 200 franc. South
American currency, 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 languages engraved
on the face.
The German currency is rather ar
tistic. The bills are printed in green
and black. They run in denominations
from to 1000 marks. These latter
bills are printed on silk fiber paper
The Chinese paper currency is in red,
white and yellow, with gilt lettering
and gorgeous little hand drawn devices.
The bills, to the ordinary financier,
might pass for washing bills, but they
are worth good money in the Flowery
Kingdom. Italian notes are of all sizes,
shapes and colors. The smaller bills, 5
and 10 lire notes. are printed on white
paper in pink, blue and carmine inks
and ornamented with finely engraved
vignette of King Humbert.
The 100 ruble note of Russia is barred
from top to bottom with all the colors
of the rainbow, blended as when shown
through a prism. In the center, in bold
relief, stands large, finely executed
vignette OF the Empress Catherine l.
This is in black. The other engraving is
not at all Intricate or elaborate, but is
well done in dark and light brown and
black inks. The Australian bill is print
ed Oh light colored thick paper which
shows none of the silk fiber marks or
geometric lines used in American cur
rency as protection against counter
feiting. Golden Days.
