The first thing a depositor in bank should learn is how to draw check, for if a check is improperly drawn it may lead to confusion and might bring a loss to the bank and annoyance to the depositor. In the first place, the figures should be plain ly made, so that no question can arise as to the amount If figure is care lessly made, so that it confuses those who handle the check, numberless hours of work may follow. For in- stance, if bank receives check for lists it as $108, it may take many hours time to find the difference, and the entire days work may have to be gone over. The rule should be: New CT make figure that may be mis- taken, and never pass one that is in doubt-correct it by crossing out the bad and making good one alongside.
 Second, the words and figures should agree. The law says that if the two are different, the written words govern, but make both carefully and get them alike.
 Third. Begin the writing well to the left of the writing space, and fill in the unused space with wayy line. Begin the figures well up against the 5 sign, and make the character 00/00 after, but close up against the figures. TTee a p0od black ink and write firmly so that plenty of ink gets into the

about the story of THE Social Score

which makes il a good picture for even

Mics Taln1adge has two roles, one Of
a pretty young woman who has to earn

Here the interesting part begins. for
the woman has two children. a young

catches the secretary minus her dis
guise and falls IN love with her, and
Mayme, the secretary, uses strenuous

High tension nclodrama, which does

 Sovereignty of Honduras.

Washington. on.-President Wilson has practically won his fight for ratifica- tion of the Nicaraguan treaty in the executive session of the Senate. Some of it's most vigorous opponents said the administration had won enough votes to command the necessary two thirds. and they predicted it's ratifi- cation.
 The administration opponents. while they conceded they expected the Mica raguan convention would go through, reiterated they would prevent ratifl- cation of the Colombian treaty to pay an indemnity and express regret for the partition of Panama.
 The Nicaraguan treaty proposes to pay Nicaragua S3,0O0,0O0 for inter. ocean canal rights and naval bases in the Bay of Fonseca. Protests against the naval base feature have been made by Salvador, which con. tends it would violate the sovereignty of Honduras.
 Assurances to Costa Rica, Salvador and Honduras that none of their rights will be violated by the United States acquiring a naval base in the Bay of Fonseca will be incorporated in the ratification resolution on the Nicaraguan treaty which the Senate is expected to pass.

 The text of the statement follows:
 According to further information in our possession, the attack with hand grenades whicn we executed in Champagne, in the region northeast of the Butte de Mesnil, gave us pos, session, after an artillery engagement, or about 300 metres of enemy trenches. A counter attack made by the enemy during the night was re- pulsed completely, and 65 prisoners, of whom one was an officer, remained in our hands.

 The Russian offensive which has been indicated in the reports of the last few days is maturing rapidly over the whole Galician front
 The Germans, according to advices from the scene of hostilities. are on the defensive on three important riv- ers-the Sereth, the Pruth and the Dniester. Czernowitz capital of Buh- owina. is agaln seriously threatened by the Russian advance east of Ra- rancho, as well as by the Russian crossing of the Dniester at UseiecZko, where their troops are firmly en- trenched This move also has had the effect of interrupting one of the most important lines of communities tion between the armies of Gener- als Pfianzer and Von Bothmer.
 A third important Russian advance has been recorded near Zale Szczyky. where fierce counter-attack is de- clared to have been successful in routing the opposing forces and de moralizing the Hungarian troops 70 such an extent that they retired to T new line four miles to the rear. In addition to these breaches announced to have been made in the opposisg lines, the Russians have been active immediately to the northward of Tar nopol. where they have moved slight ly forward. While it is admitted that these operations have no strategicai value, it is believed in military cir Cles that the new Russian offensive has prevented the Germans from with drawing troops from this front. there by lessening the chances of success full attacks on all lines elsewhere.
