figures quoted, buy per cent bonds at
the market quotation. use them as a
basis of circulation and make money by
the transaction
Under the new law the bank saves one
half of l per cent year Of the tax on
circulation when the new per cent bonds
are used. 1t is about an even thing to
exchange this As at 1924 for the Is at
1861. The saving of the taxes on bonds
deposited to secure circulation amounts
to about $500 on each 100000. About
$25, 900 in the per cent bonds are
now used as a basis for circulation. The
full tax rate must be paid on them. They
are owned by the banks, and they could
be sold to the treasury at the current
rate thus permitting the purchase of 2
per cent bonds at the market price, W tn
a consequent saving to the bankers Of
the country on their tax on circulation
of over $125,0OO every year.
The advantage of selling bonds to the
treasury may become more apparent
later, when money gets little tighter.

Of the United States, $90,000,000 i'll round

CHICAGO, May 4-The tip Of Prof.
Algia R. Crooks Vandyke beard peers
at the visitor above a heap of envelopes.
A pathway Of envelopes stretches to the
door. His feet are ankle deep in envel-
opes-envelopes Of all shades and sizes;
envelopes of every hue and texture; en-
velopes which emit every perfume from
the faint suggestive breathings of
Cologne to extract of alligator otherwise
known as patchouli He is the most en-
veloped man in the West.
All this because he told the world thai
his lips were virgin of loves kisses.
The writer's of the letters which these
envelopes contain want to marry him.
They want him right away. They will
come after him if he says So They are
willing to pay the preacher. They will
take the boat trip to st. Joseph; they
viii elope to Waukegan; they will hire a
special train and whisk him to New
York; they will charter a steamer and
wed him in old st. Pauls. London.
HE COMES HIGH.
They will unite with MN secretly; they
will give him a blowout so huge and
fierce that the social historian of the 1u-
ture will dismiss the neutrality-suspicious.
derbilt function with q paragraph He
comes high, but they must have him.
Many of the envelopes hold photo
graphs. All styles of feminine beauty are
represented; every degree of petticoatcd
ugliness stares from the cardboards. The
tall, the short, the fat, the thin. the
rounded, the angular, the dark, the
blonde, the juvenescent. the senescent.
young girls with pouting lips and half
closed Turing eyes; Old girls with bas-
relief elbows and startling teeth-all tell
him that to nestle upon his bosom and
share the splendors of his fame would
be as grateful to them as the shadow
of a great rock In a weary country
This convulsive wish to take him away
from all other women is due, Of course,
to the fact that the American neWspa-
pers have made him eligible to stand as
a tOgated statue inc the Hall of Fame.
But the professor is rather inclined to
think it due to the repeated publication
of his likeness. The professor Is paying
the penalties of celebrity. He knows the
agonies undergone by John Coughlin, the
Count Johannes, Richard LIE Galllenne
and other towering figures of the con-
cert, the stage and the lecture platform.
If he maintains his present gait, ahead
of him yawns the living tomb of the pa
ranoiac. There arc evidences that he Is
weakening. When seen this morning his
hands rested upon the pile of misstves,
only ten of which had been opened, and
with black luster eyes he stared at the
doorway.
