When Abraham was one hundred
forty years old. his wife Sarah
had been dead three years. Isaac was
then forty years old Abraham called
Eliezer, his steward, and directed that
he take ten camels and 90 to the
neighborhood where Abraham was
born, and where his brother Major
still lived. There Eliezer was to find
a suitable bride for Isaac. and bring
her to him.
The story is told with a beautiful
simplicity quite convincing to the un-
preiudiced. The characters described

Clam and Eel in Battle


Michael Morrisey Of Dedham witnessed
one of the strangest battles that Boston
ever heard of when he watched a clam
defeat an eel In fight In the tall grass
along the bank of tho Charles river above
the Cottage Farm bridge.
-MOrrisey had been prOwling along the
shore. when he espied disturbance In the
water about five feet from where he was
standing, says a Boston dispatch to the
New York Sun. Upon investigation the
trouble proved to be an eel making for q
clam which lay In wait for the eel with
jews wide open. The fight started over
what seemed to be a disagreement as to
whether the clam or the eel had right
to occupy the hole over which the clam
had taken its position
The eel tried to snap the tender part Of
the clam. and the clam did not seem to
have sense enough to keep its mouth
shut Perhaps he had tried it. with the
result that the eel nosed it off its resting
place. The clam, on the defensive. would
wait the dart of the eel, and when 1t
thought the right time had arrived would
snap its shell together IN an attempt to
catch the cells head in its grip.

Bank of England authorities chief aim is
to issue a note which is impossible for
anybody to counterfit. Towards this end,
all the parts of the note--the paper, the
water-mark, the ink, the engraving. the
printing-are prepared and done In
special and, as far as possible, secret
manner. At the mills where the paper is
manufactured the most stringent pre-
cautions are taken to prevent any of the
paper being stolen. OF course, there have
been many attempted robberies, but only
once in the year 1852, were thieves suc-
cessful in obtaining any of the paper.
Very shortly afterwards forged notes were
in circulation. The thieves did not enjoy
the triumph long. for within short time
they were captured.
The printing Is done on the bank premi-
ses. The notes are printed in pairs and
come off the machines pressed and dried.
Such notes of different values from E5
to 21,000 are kept in iron safes in one
large room and the average value of the
stock is between eighty and ninety million
pounds Over $1,000 notes of various
values are paid into the bank every day.
On their return the notes are sorted first
into their respective values, then accord
ing to their dates, and finally into their
numerical order. Every note has place
of its own in the bank registers, and inn
mediately the notes are sorted their re-
turn is registered.
A special staff of examining clerks de-
vote their attention to detecting forgeries.
OF late years there have not been many
cases of forged notes, but during the
enighteenth and early part of the nine
teenth centuries the bank suffered severe
losses from counterfeit notes. The story
of the first recorded forgery forms a
| unique chapter in the book of romance
A certain lnen-draper named Vaughn,
was passionately in love with a fair
maiden whose father was a man of con-
siderable wealth. The love-sick swain
knew that the quickest way to win the
girl was to give some proof that he was
man of means. To this end he employ
ed several men to engrave for him a Bank
of England note for 920 When twelve
of these notes had been worked off he
presented themsto his lady fair. Unluckiy
the impression was soon discovered, and
! poor Vaughn was hanged.
ne of ne cleverest and most wonder
ful note forgeries was committed by
school master, who manufactured the
counterfeit entirely with pen and Ink. He
also was unfortenate to live in the hang
Ing days, and, the crime being brought
home to him, he ended his days on the
gallows.
After returned notes have been noted in
| the register they are cancelled. This is
done by cutting off the signature of the
chief cashier which is at the bottom of
the note Thus mutilated, the notes are
| packed into sacks and kept for five
years, when they are burnt. A five years
accumulation amounts to about 100000 900
notes. If they were laid in a pile they
would reach a height almost seven miles,
and they would weigh close upon 12O TONS
SUCH an accumulation would represent an
original value of over ego 100000 900. OF
course, the number Of amount varies from
year to year.

''An Introduction to Political Parties

Ray has very modest purpose, SO the
author states. in the preface
As the title indicates. it is merely an
introduction to the study of political
parties and practical politics. IT is pri-
marily intended to serve as a textbook.
Therefore, no attempt has been made to
make 1t encyclopaedia in scope or ex-
haustive in it's treatment of topics. Sug-
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-10-05

gestiveness and condensation have been
kpt constantly in mind during its prep
aration.
A fuller treatment of a few topics
has seemed wise on account of their
Importance or the nature of the ma
terials available for student use. Some
what extended lists OF references are
to be found at the ends of chapters,
together with suggested questions and
topics. These may be used In different
ways as the basis for collateral read
Ing, for reports before the class; or,
where a large library is not at hand,
they may be made the basis Of a series
of lectures and informal discussions.
1t is believed that the plan of the work
is sufficiently elastic to be adaptable
to both large and small classes in both
large and small institutions. The plan
Is the outgrowth of several years ex-
perience in conducting large classes
having access to comparatively small
library
One of the most hopeful signs in
American politics Is the increasing
prominence which the study of political
parties and practical. as distinguished
from theoretical, politics has come to
occupy in college and university cur
ricula.
IF this textbook succeeds in intro
ducing more college men and women
to wider knowledge of politics, both
past and present, resulting in greater
interest and more intelligent activity
in the political life of their own COM
munities, its chief purpose will be ac-
eomplished." the author says.
