D NOTES EASILY DETECTED.
Almost impossible to Impose Upon
Handlers of Money.

Incidentally It is interesting to note
that the skill which enables one to de-
tect a counterfeit comes not from a
study of counterfeits, but from thor
ough and unconscious familiarity with
the genuine. If man were pointed
out to you and you were told that some
day another who much resembled him
would try to impose upon you, you
would be pretty apt to fix his features
in your mind; you would not spend
any time looking at other people who
looked something like him, would you?
And the moment the impostor APP
peared you would note that in this,
that or the other particular he failed
to meet the details OF the other mans
face and figure. Just so 1t is in the
detection of counterfeits. A skillful
teller in a bank, counting money rap
idly, will involuntarily throw out a
note which in the slightest degree de-
parts from the well-known pattern
which is so strongly impressed on his
mental vision. That involuntary act
will nearly always prove to have been
justified, for the bill in 10 cases out of
20 will prove to be counterfeit. 1t Is
because OF this fact that when a re-
quest is received from some one to
loan him a collection of counterfeits
for the instruction of his cashiers, he
is advised to have the young men
study the genuine carefully, and there
will be no trouble in detecting the bad
notes.-National Magazine.

BOY ROSE TO THE SITUATION.
Quick Wit and intelligence Displayed
by Youngster.

His parents are convinced that Clar,
ence will be a great man; the only
doubt is whether it will be as a states
man or scientist. He is only four
years old, and their confidence is
based largely on one incident. The
boy never told of it, and it would have
been lost to history if a neighbor had
not been a chance witness.
Clarence lives in the suburbs, and
has a cat and kittens. One day he
went into the yard next door with one
Of the little ones to play. There was a
big pile of brushwood here, and he
showed his pet into a hole in this.
She crawled so far back that all his eff
forts to get her out were vain.
Had he been a man he would have
pulled the pile of brush apart, but
lacking strength for this he resorted
to cunning. Running home, he soon
returned with the mother cat. He
showed her into the hole after her off
spring, and she soon came out with
the little one between her teeth. Clar-
ence bore them both home in triumph.

ut is a curious thing" said Prof
Henry Bird, an ornithologist of Rye,
N. Y, at the Rennert that birds of
European origin do not adopt the mi.
gratory habits of our native birds. The
English sparrow never seems to get
wise to the advantages of going south
in winter to avoid the rigors of a
northern climate, though he might get
the tip from our wild fowl or the
robin family. OF late years we have
had in Westchester county the start

A German scientist has discovered
that many insects. such as moths and
butterflies. have X.ray sight. This
means that the eyes Of these insects
can see with something similar TO X.
rays objects invisible to human eyes
unless aided by horoscope. If c.
binary sunlight has enough of the X
