Destroying Money.
promte.'

Extraordinary precautions are TAX
en- by the United States government
in the destruction of it's worn out and
filthy paper money. The fact that
this money could be used again
makes it necessary that it's destruc
ton should be conducted with care
and that it should be made COM
plete.
All the paper money that passes
through the treasury is sorted and
the old bills are sent to the redemp-
ton division, where they are searched
for possible counterfeits. They are
then counted and tied up into bun
dies Of 100 notes each.
A gseat cancelling machine then
drives four holes through each Of the
bundles, of which careful record is
kept. The piles of bills are then cut
into two parts. one set of halves 60
ing to the Secretary's Office and the
other to the Register.
In each place the halves are again
counted after which they are chopped
by macherery into fragments. Not
satisfied with this, the pieces are then
boiled in hot water and alkali until
reduced to an unacceptable pulp.
This the law allows the treasury to
sell to manufacturers who make it
into novelties, little models of the
White House and the capitol, which
are sold as souvenirs in the Washing
ton stores.
New bills are issued in an amount
equal to those destroyed.-Youth's
Companion.
