The Heroic Dead

The first three American SOL
diers killed in the trenches in
France are sleeping in French
soil, honored by the American
army and the people and army
of France. Their final inter-
ment took place last week.
With a guard of French infan-
trymen in their picturesque
uniforms of red and horizon
blue standing on one side and
a detachment of American SOL
diers on the other, the flag
wrapped caskets were lowered
into the grave as a bugler blew
taps and the batteries at the
front fired minute guns. AS
. the minute guns went off the
French officer commanding the
division, in this section paid
tribute to the fallen Ameri-
cans. His words, which were
punctuated by the roar of the
guns and the whistle of shells,
touched, both the French and
Americans. In conclusion the |
French officer said: "In the !

ORIGIN OF PAPER CURRENCY
Its Institution Can Be Traced to a
Small Piece of Foreetfulness of
Monarch.

With the almost entire use of paper
tory of its origin may not be uninter-
esting. In the days of the Stuarts mer-
chants used to lodge their reserves of
gold in the tower, and when one day
Charles l, in thoughtless moment, an
nexed a large sum lodged in that way,
and forgot to put it back, the mer-
chants decided that henceforth they
would put no more trust in princes, but
look to the goldsmiths. The gold
smiths thereby became the first bank
ers, and the first goldsmith who hit
upon the novel idea of giving a note,
not only to the person who deposited
gold, but also to the person who came
to borrow, founded modern banking
with an original deposit of $4,000.
The banker gave promise to pay up
to, say f25,0OO, and as long as there
was no immediate demand on the part
of the persons holding these promises
to pay to have that promise converted
into cash business proceeded merrily,
but necessarily there was a limit be-
yond which it was not safe to do this
kind of business, and it was always
possible that something unforeseen
might happen that would bring an I'M
usual number of notes for presenta-
ton. AS matter of fact, this did
happen frequently in the early days,
md finally the government stepped in |
md granted the almost entire monop- |
'ly of issuing notes to the Bank Of |
England
