THE PAPER CURRENCY.

The statement to the effect that of fcials of the treasury department are considering changes in the form of the paper currency of the country will in- terest the many handlers thereof when it is understood that the purpose of the contemplated change is economy and increased protection.
 Whatever can be done in the way of economy by any of the departments is bound to have it's appeal. In the mat ter of the paper currency the saving would be effected through making the expensive paper used in making money go farther by having the bills made smaller. Under one plan it would be possible to get five bills from the same sheet of paper that now produces four, and it doesn't appear that this would bring about such chance in the size as to cause any great opposition. It is well known that extensive oper- ations have been carried on in the coun- terfeiting and altering of paper money Should, the form of the paper currency be changed it would be possible to have l bills of different sizes so that a not of one denomination could not be raised to another while by means of other changes in the paper money 1t woul; be possible to make counterfeiting nor difficult.
 Safety and economy, which the de partment refers to in explaining the idea of making a change are bound t 1 be regarded as substantial grounds fo
 such action if it can be shown that sucl would be insured. Certainly less pape ] in making the same amount of none, would effect saving and those wh' have to deal with it should understan
 what will provide greater safeguard
 If varying sizes would not be hui
 sance there is little reason to suppos that the average handler of bills woul
 have any objection. It is the cuttin
 of the vslue that bothers most people,

POSSIBLE REASON

Unusual, but not cruel' said his father.
 For the last six weeks it has been l o'clock when he got home" explained the boys mother. "e always maNe the ex- cuse that the No. cars took long time to cross town and of course when the girl does live such a distance away, it takes time to take her way out there and then come back again way over here.
 Besides that, you recall that the other night when it was raining, that night l had been to the afternoon concert, he came home wearing his rubbers. Why I l never knew Russell to put ,rubbers on be | fore in his whole life, unless I threat ened him and cajoled and begged and [ ordered, singly and all in one breath" ! 'rWe don't need to worry, I guess, murmured Russell's father, again opening his book.
 That's it!" complained his wife. T can warn you and tell you everything and then all the interest you take in our only child is to turn back again to that silly book !'

 Don't blame me if your son suddenly takes to sticking up people"

 And probably shooting people"
 "He has no gun now since he sold tha little revolver"
 ''Jim, I don't know why you don't talk more interest in what I tell you" sai his wife in evaporation.
 "We-e-e-ell," answered her husban reluctantly "this is the week before hi birthday and he told me privately that pool table to put in the library was tn only thing he wished for" Why it would cost- l q know it." answered the easy-goin head of the house, but you see, h thinks he'll sort of pay up in advanc for his birthday present" l T never thought of that" answere } Russells mother with her eyes strayin toward the calendar.-Exchange.

Russell has been acting very stangely of late" observed the boys mother.
 "Is that sop asked the easy-going head of the house, putting his gorednger into the center of his book to hold the place What seems to be the trouble?"
 'sNo trouble whatever" said Russel's mother lifting high her chin. Russell is my son and I wish you to know that there could never be real trouble with a son of mine after the care I used in rearing him.
 Well" commented the easy-going head of the house cautiously What is the er-occasion of his-er-acting strange ly?"
 That's just what I don't know" con- fided Russells mother. He's been so good and thoughtful lately. Tonight right after dinner he carried the roast into the kitchen and asked me if I thought we'd have any more luck keeping Hor- tense if he helped her with the dinner dishes'
 The easy going head of the house glanced toward the living room door sharply and made an effort at rising.
 T told him of course, that it would never do. You see knew that his will ingness to help with the household cares was only temporary phase with hin and that probably after two or three evenings he would forget-or something and then Hortense would expect some 0. us to go out to help her. And I certainly don't want to keep a dog %nd do th' barking myself"
 You don't-what?" asked the easy going head of the house, whose mind hat roamed back to his book in an unguard ed moment and who had heard only tn part about the dog.
 That is, I don't want to pay a mai and do the dishes myself" amended Rus sells mother.
 'cNo, no quite right!" The easy-gofn head of the house. again maneuvered t open the book, but his wife interrupte him.
 Then last night-you know it was hi regular time to call on Kathryn-wel last night he came in at Il and the asked apologetically if he disturbed m by being so late!"

A school teacher had started out early giving a practical lesson on fracttons. Children" she said, 'here is a piece of meat If I cut it in two what should have?"
 Halves" said the class in chorus.
 And if I cut it again?"
 Quarters" came the reply at once.
 And if I cut it again?" "Eighths,'' said half the class, the other half maintaining dignified silence
 Good. And if I cut the pieces again?'
 Dead silence in the class, but one hand was raised in solitary state at the back of the room.

CatarrhaI Deafness CANNOT Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
Catarrhal Deafness requires constitu-
tional treatment. HALLS CATARRH
MEDICINE is a constitutional remedy
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed, Deafness is the result. Unless
the Inflammation can be reduced, your
hearing may be destroyed forever.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system, thus reducing the in
flammation and restoring normal condi-
tiOns.
