terday when his famous old mortar went off un-
expectedly while some lads playing with it,
and of the number-Henry Remson, was shot
fifty feet into the top of apple tree a result
of touching spring.
Young Remson is quite badly bruised and shaken

he is guessing hard. for he is threatened with a

IMPRESSIVE PERSPECTIVE

This plan has the advantage. too of giving an
interior of which the whole length is seen

spective and to the impressive effect of the build
ing.
We propose two Chapes at the ends OF the choir
aiSles: the south could be the lady chapel and
the other the chapel of SITS. Peter and Paul who
give title TO the cathedral, or the north chapel
could be the chapel OF St John the Evangelist. the
two chapels thus symbolizing the scene of Cal
vary. An aisle terminating in a mere wall always
has a poor and unsatisfactory effect lt Will be a
great advantage to have Chapels here at the east
ends of the two aisles. each with their screens
and altar and their reredOS.
The chapels at the ends of the aisles would be
used for people during choir services and VIII thus
afford accommodation. An isolated lady chapel
would be place and not useful for those
attending the services conducted in the choir.

During the past year Il looked as

IN rAE MATTER OF CHECKS.
Take Them to the Bank at once and
Save Trouble.

In these days when so much bust.
ness is done by means of checks and
when these little slips of paper dis
charge most of tho obligations be-
tween debtor and creditor it would
seem almost unnecessary to suggest in
q general way the advisability of cash
ing them as quickly as possible. says
the Utica Press. That is what busi
ness men do every day of their lives.
1t often happens. however, that losses
come to people because they postpone
this important process. a compare
lively recent occurrence furnished eX.
amples of this sort. Men Of limited
means held checks, which were good
when given, so long that when pre-
scntcd for payment they were worth
less. The holder, looking at them,
said: II know that such and such Il
bank is perfectly good. My money is
as safe there as IL would be in my own
pocket" That is true If the money
were deposited in your name, and the
only way TO have IL In that good bank
In your name Is to send in the check
and have 1t deposited and so credited.
A man may give q check that l.
good to-day and tomorrow, but which
may not be worth tho paper on which
H. Is written next week Whoever
Keeps a check more than "a hours, If
he can possibly get to a bank, Is tak'
ing more or less risk, according to the
reliability of the maker. The bust.
ness of the country is done in checks
and millions of money changes hands
every day through them as medium
but the good business man, no matter
who sends II, puts the check in the
bank within "a hours of it's receipt
and then the process of actual collec,
ton commences People unfamiliar
with the business sometimes look on a
check for $40 with just as much re-
spcCt as they would on $40 bill. One
is good when it is proven so and the
other Is good anywhere and any time.
Checks are unlike wine, in that they
do not improve with age. When you
get check, even If II be T.. II, Harrl
mans or John D. Rockefellers, take II
right to a bank, have IL cashed and
nut 10 your credit.

they have asked the mayor what
course to pursue in the matter. As
the property owners. many of whom
have not yet finished paying for
their properties, are unable to put

they have no recourse but to sell
their properties and get out.
