worhngmal's rather numerous fam
lily to an investigator last autumn.
Quite right, mother" echoed man
near by; you viii never know the
evil we men don't do while we are
busy in our little gardens"
This conversation took place in
France, on one Of the workingmen' 5
gardens, movement for self-help
which is growing each year, says a
writer In the Century. A similar
movement was started in Detroit in
1894 under the name of the Pota
Patch farms; later carried out sue
cessfully in New York and other cities
In the vacant lot farms. while to-day
Philadelphia is beginning her eighth
year Of successful effort.
Nine. Herview, a charitable woman
in Sedan, tired Of aiding the poor by
gifts Of money, attempted to rouse
them to self-help by an offer Of dou-
bling any sum Of money which they
should deposit In the local savings
bank. She rented a small tract Of
land and said to the poor people:
Nov 90 to work"
They did. and as they worked the
taste for 1t grew; they kept steadily
at It, especially as they knew that the
fruits Of their labor would belong to
them, that the vegetables they raised
could be taken to their homes or
sold
Such was the humble beginning in
1893 Of little movement, but one so
simple and practical that 1t grew until
last October, In Paris, there was held
a congress Of workingmens gardens,
attended by 700 delegates, under the
presidency Of M. Aynard Of France.

the Money World-The "Mon-
roe hundred.n

There is one lost art among Grim
inals, one trade which United States
secret service men have seemingly
wiped out to the very last man. This
Is the art of counterfeiting currency,
says the Kansas City Star. Kansas
City bank officials say that for eight
years not one spurious banknote
worthy Of passing comment has been
handled in the money world. They
declare that the day Of successful
counterfeiting has come to an end.
mot banknote which fools the ex-
perts is on the market" said E. F.
Swinney, president Of the First ma
tlonal bank. There Is counterfeit
currency, plenty Of IT," he said, 'but
it's kind detected almost at glance.
Inspection of It quickly reveals the
flaws Usually the work is clumsy
But not since the notorious gang in
Philadelphia which made the famous
Monroe hundred" was wiped out has
there been really clever counterfeit
er at work. At least, we have no rec
ord of any.
The Monroe hundred" was 500
silver certificate with the face OF
President Monroe stamped upon it.
It was Of a series Of 1901, check letter
D, Tillman register, Morgan treasur-
er 1t was an absolutely perfect coun-
terfeit. Experts in the treasury de-
partment we're fooled by it. The notes
became so numerous and ware ac-
cepted so extensively that the gov
eminent called in its entire issue Of
the bill, amounting to several mil
lion dollars, Even now Monroe
hundred is occasionally picked up
and is almost impossible to tell
whether 1t is genuine or not.
THE only difference between the
genuine bill and the counterfeit was
in the shape Of the figures 3 and 4
and the length of the bill. In the fig
ure the lower loop did not extend up
80 far toward the center Of the figure
as 1t should have extended In the
figure the space between the base
and the center cross line was mar
rover than it should have been. The
false bill was one-sixteenth Of an
inch shorter than the genuine.
Such Irregularities would easily
pass the eye Of an expert" Mr.. Swim
ney said. "Of course, If a genuine
biz was laid before you and you had
the opportunity to compare the two.
after some study the defects could be
noted But think Of the number Of
money handlers who had the counter
felt bill who had no opportunity for
such comparison.
The gang which made the Monroe
hundred" was arrested in Philadelphia
In 1899. The plates which printed the
bills we're recovered and the counter.
feiters sentenced to long terms in
prison.
With the end of that gang" Mr..
Swinney said, there seems to have
been an end OF successful counterfeit.
