The distinctive paper used today is the
result Of the combined experience of the
best experts in that craft throughout the
paper making world. Prior to 1880 II was
manufactured at Glen Mills. near Philadel-
phia, and on that paper was printed many
OF the United States notes, or old green
backs much OF the fractional currency and
the great funded loan OF 19O7-the per
cent bonds. That paper was very expen-
sive. and generally its distinguishing feat
ure was a zone OF tute fiber which ran
crosswise of the note. When the national
bank notes were printed upon this paper
objections were made by the presidents and
cashiers OF those banks because the fiber
caught the pen when they signed the notes.
This resulted in a change in 1879 and 1880
when the contract was awarded to Crane &
Co at Dalton. Mass, and a more accept
able paper was made at n large reduction
In rhe price. The zone OF jute fiber was
abandoned and distributed fiber, made OF
the best OF silk, was adopted. which finally
gave way to single, and then to double
line Of silk thread. which ran lengthwise
OF the note.
The present standard paper Is made OF
pure linen and for notes IL has two mar
row zones OF silk fiber running crosswise
OF the note. and for bonds Il Is so arranged
that a portion OF the silk zone will be on
each coupon.
Formerly the Internal revenue stamp pa
per also contained zones OF Jute fiber. but
now Il is made OF material much cheaper

Treating Wrong Disease.

Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering, as they imagine,
one from dyspepsia, another from heart
disease, another from liver or kidney dis
ease, another from nervous exhaustion or
prostration, another with pain here and
there, and In this way they all present
alike to themselves and their easy-going
and indifferent, or over-busy doctor, sep
arate and distinct diseases for which he,
assuming them to be such, prescribes his
pills and potions. In reality they are all
only symptoms caused by some womb dis
ease. Tho physician, ignorant of the
cause Of suffering. encourages this prac-
tice until large bills are made. The suf
fering patient gets no better, but prob
treatment and consequent complications.
A proper medicine like DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorfte Prescription, directed to the cause
eefwould have entirely removed the disease,
Thereby dispelltng all those distressing
symptoms, and insti tuting comfort in
stead OF prolonged misery. 1t has been
well said that "a disease known is half
cured" In cases almost innumerable,
after all other medicines had failed to
help and doctors had said there was no
cure possible the use Of DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, supplemented when
necessary by medical advice and counsel
lof DR.. Pierce, has resulted in perfect
land permanent cure. The genuineness of
these cures Is attested not only by the
entire disappearance of pain, but by
gain Of flesh, a clear complexion and a
cheerful disposition.

"Put the HeIlum Aport."

It adds to the impresiveness of a
pulpit discourse to dwell at some
length on certain points; but this
sometimes has been overdone.
An earnest preacher who, in warn.
ing sinners against the rocks OF ruin,
had brought up the favorite illustra-
ton of ship in imminent danger of
going to pieces on reef, was prolong-
ing the horror Of the scene, demanding
what must be done, etc., when he was
interrupted by an impatient sailor
among his listeners with:
