are novelty.

WORK HARD AND KEEP ON TOP.
Observance OF Simple Rule Means
Success In Life.

Thirty years ago, in a poor school
house in back district, a boy at the
foot of his class Unexpectedly spelled
word that had passed down the en-
tire class.
Go up. ahead" said the master,
land see that you stay there. You can
If you work hard
The boy hung his head. But the
next day he did not miss a word in
spelling. The brighter scholars knew
every word in the lesson; hoping
there might be chance to get ahead
But there was not single one. Dave
stayed at the head He had been an
Indifferent speller, before, but now he
knew every word.
Dave, how do you get your lesson
so we'll now?" said the master.
Il learn every word in the lesson,
and get my mother to hear me at
night, then go over them in the
morning before 1 come to school. And
l go over them at my seat before the
class is called up
Good boy, Dave!" said the MASTER
That's the way to success; always
work that way and you'll do" o..
Dave to-day is the manager Of big
lumber company, and he attributes hts
start to the words:
GO up ahead. and see that you stay
there. You can if you work hard"
Success may come sometimes unex-
pectedly, but work alone can hold it

Ask yourself what is the bill Of

don't overdo it.
The largest bill is for only $40, 006.

At guess there may be 10000 to 49,.
900 of the gold certificates of the de-
nomination.
There is $4,000 United States note
of which there may be only a hand
full, as against $4,000 of the $4,000 gold
certificates. 1t should be remembered
that any national bank note of the
$4,000 and $4,000 denominations that

The $500 bill runs through all these
