Raising Paper Money.

Wsverly Independent: One of our
merchants went to the State Bank of
Waverly last Friday to make de-
post. Teller VanDerver, as he
counted the money, found S5 bill
that did not look right and he told
the merchant so. A little examina-
ton revealed the fact that somebody
had done a bungling Job trying to
raise a 81 bill to a IS, by cutting the
figure 8, etc., out of some S5 bills
aud FASTING them on the 81 bill. An
other $40 bill has turned up which has
been split and sent to the treasury de-
partment at Washington for redemp.
tion, but the bill had been so bung-
lingly mutilated that the treasury
officials refused to redeem 1t and they
returned it to the sender. Another 81
bill has turned up that some one tried
to raise to IS bill by using the split
figure %.

A Frightful Accident.

Little Joe Polka lost an eye. and was
otherwise injured by the explosion of
a cannon cracker Monday. He had
placed the cracker in a bottle, and
had lighted the fuse. 1t was slow in
burning, and he picked up the bottle
and blowed on the fuse. Suddenly
the fire ran down to the cracker which
exploded, blowing the bottle to frag-
ments, and sending the pieces Of
glass in the boys face. 1t is thought
that one eye is entirely destroyed and
that he may lose the sight of the
other. He also suffered injury in one
of his hands and a limb. His cries
brought assistance, and a physician
was callediwho dressed his wounds. -

Advice for Vacation.

The vacation season is at hand,
and what is the boy going to do? II
he has a wise parent the boy will
work. Some employment will be
found for him, and he will be the bet
ter for his labor, when school opens
in the fall. He will be healthier,
stronger, purer and more manly. He
will have been taught the most i'm.
portant lesson in life, that of indus
try. His hands may have become
rough, and his skin tanned; his
muscles may ache. and his body grow
weary with long continued exertion,
but there will be sweet repose, and
the animated feeling of having done
something. Such boy may not stand
we'll with romantic girls who dote on
the money spending boy of leisure
the one who parts his hair in the
middle. never misses dance, and has
lots of time for golf-.but he will get
the favorable notice of those who
have the power to help him on in the
world. He will be getting into line
for becoming himself man of infiu-
ence and affairs. The editor of the
Express has a profound respect for the
industrious boy who takes up his
duties cheerfully and accomplishing
ly, and his belief in such boy re-
mains mistaken so long as he abstains
from cigarettes and strong drink. -

A BOunte0uS Increase.

In the spring of 1895, T. j. Coates,
of Perry, owned $l2. so watch which
he traded for its worth in apple trees
Here is what followed: The trees all
grew, and in the spring of 1900 all
put forth blooms and that fall Mr..
Coates harvested about twenty five
bushels. In the fall of 1901, he har-
vested $50 bushels; the autumn of 1902
was bountiful season and he secured
300 bushels and last fall. 1908. the
apple crop fell back to $50 bushels.
This he has sold at an average of 81. %
bushel. During the four seasons
his net income was 5000 OH a $l2.5
