QUEER BANK CHECKS.
A Piece of Lath, Collars and Cuffs That
Have Been Endorsed and Cashed.


Have Been Endorsed and Cashed.
From the Philadelphia Press.
A torn linen collar, piece of lath. a cuff.
and half dozen other odd objects hung
above certain bank clerks desk In this
city.
My collection Of queer checks" the
young man said. each Of those things Is
check. Each was duly honored. Each has
a story.
Il have been collecting queer checks for
three years. That piece Of lath started me-
bank honored the lath for $3.50 It was
made into check by the owner Of a saw
mill, who was out at the plant with his
son. thirty miles from any house, and to-
tally without paper, let alone a check
book. The money was needed to pay on
the hands. The saw miller wrote on the
lath just what a check correctly drawn has
on 1t. and he sent his son into the bank
to get the money and to explain. The lath
check was honored after some discussion
among the banks officers

FREIGHT RATE INQUIRY.
Interstate Commerce Commission Con
tinues Investigation Today.

PHILADELPHIA, November 23.-One OF
the principal witnesses before the inter-
state commerce commission today In the
investigation of the freight d1heront!al
was Edward Francis. general agent or
the Allen line Of steamships, who 1s To-
Gated in Chicago. In answer to questions
Mr. Francis stated that Chicago Is the
competitive point Of freight carriers In
the line of grain shipments. He was asked
the conditions relative to New York and
Philadelphia in respect to obtaining
freight, and said that so far as the Allen
line was concerned the conditions were
equal as to boats sailings and tonnage.
I'm making the through rate from Chi
cago to Glasgow what has been the erect
of an inland rate which Is lower TO Pnll-
adelphia and Baltimore than to New
York;" the witness was asked by Sllas
w. Petit, representing Philadelphia.

adelphia and Baltimore"

Der can send to New York as cheaply as
to other ports, which would receive the
preference?'
New York, I think"
Chairman Knapp, addressing the Wit
ness said:
"As I understand it, at Chicago you sell
space on your steamers. If you need car
goes you can offer lower inland and ocean
rates to and from Philadelphia"
THAT is correct. The shipper has the
option of selecting Philadelphia, with
the privilege of the differential."
"Who gets the differential?" queried
Mr.. Petit.
"If freight Is in demand the shipper
gets it, but If cargoes are plentiful the
carrier receives portion Of 1t.
Mr.. Francis added that during rats wars
the differential always obtained. There
was a time, he said, when the railroads
insisted on equal inland rates to all ports.
and during that period the Allen line did
not get any freight to Philadelphia.
James Bamford. chief clerk of the
Trunk Lines Association. submitted ia
bles and statistics showing the freight
traffic to Philadelphia and New York He
was not examined.

Economizing Vital Force.
From Success.

AS a result of careful study and many
exhaustive experiments the writer Is con-
WINGED that the average man or woman
uses up in the performance Of ordinary
everyday. acts from three to fifteen times
the amount OF vital force necessary. Tho
vitality so wasted Is In many cases suffi-
cient to make all the difference between
weakness and strength. between sickness
and health or between failure and success
The ways in which vitality Is wasted are
many and various We need consider but
two-incorrect posture Of the body and ex-
cessive muscular action. Another and
most far-reaching factor In nervous vital
waste is lack of control of the emotions
A bent body Is strained by Its own weight
so we find that among people having
such bodies the mere act OF holding up
the body In standing. walking and moving
about requires from four to ten times az
much vital outlay as the straight body.
