HUGE CHECKS.

Enormous Sums Represented by Sits of
Paper.
Checks Cor large amounts seem t,
be the order of the day, but even Sir
Thomas Lipton's large check in pay
ment of import duties covering a GER
tain period of time, the installments
on the purchase of the Anaconda
mines, or on the Coast railroad in
America, which have all amazed the
world in their turn, pale into insignia
canoe compared with those that have
been drawn recently. The payments
made by the French government as
war indemnity to Prussia have hith-
erto held the first rank, in the opinion
of well known fnanciers, as the largest
ever known, but the check drawn for
the largest amount on record repre-
sents the balance ofNthe war indemnity,
with the interest thereon, paid by
China to Japan, namely, G11,00S,S57
les Cd. The Chinese government bor-
rowed, through the Hong Kong and
Shanghai bank, the sum of 6 10000
900 to pay this indemnity. The money
was transferred at the Bank Of Eng
land, from the account of the Chinese
ambassador to the credit of the gov
eminent of Japan; the check bears the
Endorsement of tho Chinese minister
to England, Lofenluh, and that of the
manager of the Bank of England, and
it is also signed by the manager of the
Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking
corporation. This rare piece of paper
is at present in the possession of W.
H. Harris. Another large check was
presented at a well-known bank few
years ago for 2S0,000-that was the
sum paid by the De Beers Diamond
company for the purchase of another
very large diamond mine. The check
in question was signed by two direc-
tors. After it had been paid photo
graphs of the check were taken and
sold for a small sum, and were bought
up rapidly. Another large check was
that drawn on the London and County
bank a few years back by the Great
Indian Peninsular Railway company,
and a short time before this a check
was paid through the clearing house
for over G3,000000, drawn on Messrs.
Glyn & Co., which was paid to the
Bank of England.-Tit-Bits

FOOLISH SUGGESTION.
Getting Up a wonder Bag" for Sick
Friend.

Getting Up wonder Bag" for Sick
Friend.
Some of the suggestions for Christ
mas present-making In the womens
magazines might be collected and pub
lished under the appropriate tltie'
How to Worry Ones Friends, says
the New York Commercial Advertiser.
One suggestion is that one begin two
months before Christmas and prepare
a wonder-bag for some sick frlenu.
The plan outlined is astonishing In It's
simplicity. One writes begging let
tiers to an unlimited number OF per-
sons. asking each one to send pres
ent for the bag. Since these frlends
will probably be scattered far and wide
in the home land and perhaps in for
eign lands as we'll, it will be neces-
sary to begin preparations early--the
earlier the better" When the presents
arrive one packs them in tissue paper
and marks each with the name of the
giyer and ties it with narrow ribbon.
The heavy ones are put at the bottom,
the light ones at the top, those appro-
pirate to the spring near the top and
those suitable for Fourth of July in
the middle, etc, etc. The bag can be
made to last three months, six months
or a wear. 1t all depends on the num-
Der of persons one held up" by mail,
their promptness and generosity and
the curiosity or patience OF tho lndl-
vidual, who may elect to draw out all
the presents in week or to choose one
for every fortnight. The writer cites
instances of these bags being made and
proving sources Of great interest and
pleasure to all concerned. But con-
sidering that most Of us have inn
perative claims on us at holiday times
and limited incomes at all seasons
that even the poorest would feel
ashamed to turn q deaf car to the APP
peal for an invalid, and that most In
yalids have sufficient pride and unself-
ishness to resent this particular way Of
receiving delicate attentions" one Is

The average body temperature o.
what are known as warm blooded ami
mails is little higher than this, BEING
100 degrees Fab, and except in con
stitutional disturbances, this does MOI
vary more than three or four degrees

indeed, seems in good health to be
warmer than 1914 degrees; scarcely any
