BANKS ODD CALLERS

The Bank of England has just dis
pensed with the services of the two
detectives who have stood sentry at its
front door for over a quarter og cen
fury. During the period many were
their odd experiences. for there are
many people at large who think they
own the Bank of England or part of
it. and they call periodically with the
idea of making an inspection of the
premises. Then there is the individual
who would go up to the sentry box,
tap the detective on the arm. and ask
in an undertone, Which is the way to
the cashiers desk? want to change
cheque for million pounds" An
other would ask to be directed to the

heirs to the throne. and that the bank
would be theirs as soon as they had
proved their claim. Even visitors in
rags would call and demand to be al
lowed to count over their securities.

TRoUT's MEMORY

An expert in fish culture, vino be-
lieves that fish have memories, gave
a novel exhibition to support his
theory. In one of the inclosed poolg
at the hatchery under his charge
there was a large trout, which alwayg
came forward to see and be seer
when visitors appeared. It was the
experts custom, after calling particu-
lar attention to that trout, to raise
his cane quickly and hold 1t over tho
water. The performance would have
no effect upon the trout. Then the
expert would produce light trout rod
and appear with it at the side OF tho
pool. Instantly that trout would turn
and flee. hide itself at the far end OF
the Enclosure, and remain there as
long as the rod was in sight. This is
the explanation of the sudden change
in the trout's demeanor: One day,
early in the career of the fish, the ex'
pert. to try a barbless hook he had
devised, cast with one in that pool.
and this trout seized 1t. The hook
penetrated and passed through its up
per jaw, and by the time 1t was re-
leased from the hook it had under
gone an operation that made a last
ing impression upon 1t.

BAKING ECONOMY.

BY the use of perfect baking powder
the housewife can derive as much econ

same, thus making the food sweet and
wholesome and producing sufficient leav-

Very little of this leavening gas is pro-
duced by the cheap baking powders, max
ing it necessary to use double the guam

companions was stranded on desert

months they were picked up by an
American vessel. His companions
were left in Hawaii, but Manjiro, who
became great favorite with the cap
tain. was brought to America, and ed
ucated in New England. He after
wards was the interpreter for Com
modore Perry in his Japanese negotia-
tons.
