STRANGE CHECKS.
The d Assortment Collected by
One Bank Clerk.


A torn linen collar, a piece Of lath, a
cuff and a half dozen other odd OBJ
jects hung above the bank clerks desk.
MY collection Of queer checks" the
young man said. Each Of those things
Is q check. Each was duly honored.
Each has d story.
81 have been collecting queer checks
for three years. That piece Of lath
started me. A western bank honored
the lath for $3.50. 1t was made out as
a check by the owner of u sawmill, who
was out at the plant with his son, thir-
ty miles from any house, and totally
without paper. let alone a check book.
The money was needed to pay off the
hands. The sawmiller wrote on the
lath Just what a check correctly drawn
has on 1t, and he sent his son In to the
bank to get the money and to explain.
The lath check was honored after some
discussion among the banks officers.
THE cuff check was drawn by an
actor who had become slightly intoxi-
Gated, got into a fight and been arrest
ed. He was treated cavalierly In his
cell. They wouldn't give him any pa
per, and he bibed a boy to take the
check to a bank. The boy got the
money, and with 1t the actor paid his
nne. Otherwise he'd have been jailed
for ten days. Thus the cuff check may
b said to have saved a man from pris-
IN.

lar won 4 bet of So, A man bet q wo-
man that a check made on a collar
would be cashed, and OF course he won
