tho veteran story teller. reminds me
Of story I once heard Of bank that

when q clever scheme OF the cashier
saved it from utter ruin. And the
best Of the whole thing was that in
saving the bank the cashier floated a
big issue Of counterfeit money and the
deception was never found out. Here
Is how the thing occurred:
Some of the bank directors and
some Of the officers had been dabbling
in stocks. The crash came and when
1t did some Of the banks officials got
their fingers jammed. It looked to
DO all up with the bank. The run be-
gan and it seemed as IL the old bank
would have to close It's doors for
ever It happened that the cashier
had a brother who was q secret serv-
Ice man. This brother had led raid
on a counterfeiters' den several days
before and had secured several thous-
and dollars worth Of paper money,
which represented some Of the most
beautiful counterfeits ever seen In that
territory. He had placed In the bank
box used by himself and brother this
money. which he was holding as evi-
dence.

yourselves. In telling what books we're
most needed, he makes short list OF
the indispensables. At the head OF ali
he puts the Bible, which, besides Its re-
ligiOus worth, has claim upon every
reader to enable him to understand all
history and literature.
In regard to this. the author men,

the subject as saying that the En-
glish language of the last three centu-
ries has revolved around the English
Bible, AS the earth goes round the sun.
The second book,~it may surprise you
to know, is good history Of America
next, good history Of England; fourth

of those established by the city or by
