Department Gives New
Dignity to Indian Corn

Corn, the American Indians greatest
gift to modern civilization, is given a
new dignity in a bulletin issued today
by the Department of Agriculture,
which speaks of that food grain as
having been the means OF saving from
starvation many of the pioneers of the
early days, who came from other lands
10 settle the new world.
so important was this food in the
days when the country was being set
led,'' the department bulletin declares,
that both natives and colonists, in
their troubles with one another, found
it was greater blow to destroy crops
Of adversaries than to make war upon
them
The departments experts in nutrition
find thai it makes up per cent of the
total food consumed by the people of
The United States.

FOUR DOLLARS BAD
IN EACH 100000
Secret Service Men Reused by
New Counterfeit Like Fire.
men by Gong.

IF Won have 100000 in silver and
100000 in bills hidden away in
wooden sock under the mattress or
boarded in a tin box under an apple
tree, you are probably boarding 81
in counterfeit money.
Nobody knows just how much bad
money is in circulation. for obviously
a perfect counterfeit could never be
detected. But perfection is as scarce
among bad bills as it is among good
men, and after close tabulations COW
ering a period of n year, the United
States Secret Service has come to the
conclusion that not more than 50 in
every 100000 Of silver nor more than
81 in every 100000 of bills is
spurious.
To the Secret Service office there
goes eventually every piece Of coun-
terfeit money discovered. 1t is the
great purifying plant of the stream
of our national currency, though II
is only one OF it's vital functions.
The appearance of a new counterfeit
is 10 the Secret Service what the
clang of the gong is to a fire de-
partment.

feiter, he cannot carry his operations
far until the service has line on
him." his methods, accomplices, and
general characteristics, and his ap-
prehension is usually a matter Of
days.
There Is an erroneous idea very
generally held, that paper money Is
printed on paper manufactured by a
secret process which is carefully
guarded from the public The truth
is that almost any paper house could
make the identical paper, were II not
prohibited by law from doing so. The
matter of getting the silk fibers into
the fabric is comparatively simple
and the appearance of these tiny
shreds, often cleverly initiated with. a
fine pen, not infrequently induces the
inexperienced to accept a counterfeit
bill of which they are suspicious.
With the development OF photo-en-
craving, the shady art of counterfeit
ing received a big impetus. Prior to
that industry only experts could hope
to produce bills that would pass even
casual inspection. And as mans
handiwork always expresses his in
dividuality, the thumb print or
every counterfeit was literally on
every bill he put out.
Today, however, bills may be dupli-
Gated by a purely mechanical process.
But the lines are heavy and uneven.
and while such a reproduction may
expert can spot IL at glance.

A PIANO POINTS

Housewives attention. Do you
know that the actual life Of your
piano depends to a great extent upon
the treatment given it by yourself?
Do, you know that overplaying an
instrument is less injurious tina to
keep it silent? e.
Do you know that a silent" piano
"goes out Of tune" almost as fast as
a piano played regular?
Do you know that the service OF a
competent tuner twice a year is a
medium Of extending the life and get
ting the greatest efficient use Of your
instrument?
A cheap, well made piano, regur
larly attended, sounds better than a
high grade instrument when allowed
to go years without attention.
Have you a high grade piano in
vestment, which is not giving you
it's best efficient service and do you
want it to remain SO?
If you have consider it a poor in
|vestment for then it's use has conde-
scended to a mere home decoration.
Treat your piano to a good tuning
regular, you will surely notice the
difference. If you don't your neigh
bors will.
Many people lavish hundreds Of
dollars annually on auto supplies and
accessories and hesitate in having
their piano tuned even once a year.
AS oil is to the motor the competent
tuners service is to the piano. =

that he had changed his lodgings, and
Mr.. Stuart asked why. er
'"There's q kin o. cauldness sprung
up between me an the man I was lodg.
In wi afore," he said.
"How is that?" MI. STUART asked.
"Weel, they haze some very curious

"What Kind Of words?" MI. Stuart
asked.
The man explained that in Fifeshire
they spoke Of "the ribs Of q: CRATE" not
"the bars" and he went on: 1T Just
