FACE DESIGNS FOR
new bANKNOTES
MEET APPROVAL
cVeagh Orders Change in
Style and Size to Be
Made in 1914.

After a thorough investigation, Sec
rotary OF the Treasury Franklin Mac
Vcagh has approved plain OF system
atizing the designs for United States
notes. coin certificates and national
bank notes. with view to carrying in
to effect an idea of uniformity In por-
trait and general design for notes of
the same denomination and class. at the
same time taking advantage Of the OPP
portunity to change the size OF the
notes The proposed. change has been
ordered by Secretary Macveagh to 20
into effect the first day Of July. 1914.
The present size OF paper money Is
8N inches wide by 1928 inches long.
Bills are to be reduced under the order
Of Secretary Macveagh to az inches
wide by inches long. the present size
OF the Philippine silver certificates.
Face Designs Ready.
The face designs Of the new notes
have been submitted to the Secretary
Of the Treasury by Director Ralph OF
the Bureau OF Engraving and Printing
and now are being considered for APP
proval. II Ia the desire Of Mr.. Mac
Vtagh to make notes more artistic, and
at the Same time to give added security
against counterfeiting.
1t Is estimated by Director Ralph, Of
the bureau. that after the designs are
submitted to his department II will re-
qYire eighteen months to. engrave the
original dies and make the necessary
plates to print the reduced size notes in
such quantities as to expediently re-
place the larger size notes in circula-
ton by redemption and exchange at the
subtreasuries.
The greatest difficulty the Secretary
encountered In the proposed change was
the reduction In size OF national bank
notes, as tho methods now In vogue re-
quire about 1900 plates TO print ma
tional bank notes for the individual
banks and the national bank system
OF the country requires npout 500. 900, 900
worth Of national bank notes per year
to take care of the increased circulation
and redemption of worn notes.
Plan Means Economy.
Mr.. Macveagh has decided upon q
method which will not require more
than 200 plates to do the work. In ad-
dition to the saving Of considerable
money to the banks. there will be an
additional economy Of about $4,000 q
year in the printing Of the national bank
notes. a
The secretary is considering the advi-
sibility of havinE the following por-
traits placed on the several denomina-
change: 81. Washington; %, JEFFERSON;
IS. lincoln; $40, Cleveland; $50, Jack.
son: 80, Grant; $IOO Franklin; $500,

der neck is the crushed stock OF net or null
with the chin bow. This bow must be built Of
soft material. yet there must be body
enough to make II stand out dennantly.
Net or malines are perhaps the most
satisfactory fabrics. The bow must be
fastened at the top OF the stock, with the jabot
fastened at the lower end. The jabot must be
much shorter than those popular during
the Winter.
The woman with the fat neck and face
must wear a high stock Of Irish or point
Venise: her iabot must be long and narrow
and fastened at the base of the stock, with
no sembance OF a bow. Heavy, restraining
iaces are appropriate for the plump neck: the
fine, soft laces for the thin.

The pannier and the ehntE waistcoat are
