Red-headed people, as is well known,
are less subject to badness than 9th
ers. A London doctor explains the
matter thus: The hair of the red
headed is relatively thick, one red hair
being almost as thick as five fair or
three brown hairs. With 10000 red
hairs the scalp is we'll thatched, wher.-
as with the same number of fair hairs
one is comparatively bald 1t takes
10000 fair and 5000 brown hairs to
cover adequately an ordinary head.

Controller Dawes Plans to Increase
National Bank Circulation.
Large Increase in Individual Deposit
in tho Banks Of the Country
During tho Past Year.

WASHINGTON, D. G. (speciaD.-Charles
G.. Dawes, Controller Of the Currency, says
in his annual report:
"The number OF banks In operation on
September 7, 1899, was 1895, with a paid-in
capital OF S6O5, ,772, $40. The individual de.
poslts on that date amounted to $780,
s25, ,595.31, and the aggregate resources TO
74.650, 1856, 1884.

turns with those made on September 40.

loans and discounts OF S940. 0.789, ,623.20; IN
amounts due from other banks and bank
ers, $160, ,391 ,S96.68; In specie, 1857 ,225,-
"A, and In aggregate resources, $646.644,- =
0SS.57.
"On September the net deposit liabill-
ties OF the national banks OF the coun-
try aggregated sS,091, 1853 .o16.6s, on which
reserve OF $3.50, ,56S, ,s25.9o, or 2sas per
cent, was held"
In connection with the need OF a larg er
national bank note circulation the Con-
troller says:
"The Controller would recommend legls.
lation authorizing the issuance Of national
bank note circulation to the par OF the de-
posted United States bonds, and that the
additional ten per cent. circulation thus
allowed the banks be subjected to tax at
the rate Of two or three per cent. per an
mum for the time used. which will tend to
prevent Its unrestricted use under normal
conditions, and to save It for use at those
periods OF the year when crops are to be
moved, and in those periods OF panic when
It Is most valuable both to the banks and
the business public as a means OF as.
sisting the generalllquldatIon oil credits.
"With the object OF securing an Increase
In the present bank-note circulation he
would recommend the reduction or abol.
Ishment Of the present taI Of one per cent.
per year on the circulation to ninety
per cent. Of the deposited bonds-the
amount Of the reduction In the tax on our
rency to be collected from the necessary
per cent. OF tax on the capital and surplus
Of national banks II requisite to tae public
revenues.
"To allow the banks to issue UP to the
par OF the bonds, unsubj bjected to addt'
tional tax on the ten per cent. extra eircu-
latlop, will result in their Immediately
taking out their additional circulation
for the purpose Of profit. Exactly the
same rate OF profit could be realized by
the banks upon circulation to ninety per
cont. OF the bonds deposited, taxed at
four-ninths OF one per cent. per annum, as
they could realize upon circulation to the
par OF the bonds at the present tax OF one
per cent" -.
The controller believes that from the
passage OF laws altering as suggested the
rate and method of taxation OF national
bank notes an increase of ut least 300 ,00O.-
900 may be reasonably expected.
