BERLIN, January 16.--Another issue
Of American Confederate money,
in ten-dollar bills, has been put oa
the market in Germany, and several
prominent merchants have been vie--
timized to the extent of thousands of
dollars. Scores Of others have ac-
cepted the bad bills in smaller
amounts.
A few months ago the Confederate
money, suspiciously bright and clean,
was passed quietly around to unsus-
pecting shopkeepers and to even g.
few visiting Americana who dis
played carelessness in making change.
At that time warning was issued by
the banks and the newspapers adj

WASHINGTON HEAD
FAKEG0N STAMP
First Counterfeit of 2.Cent
Postage Discovered
Since 1895.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 4.-Countsr
feits of tie familiar 2-cent postage
stamp have appeared for the frs.
time since 1895. One Of the new ooun-
terfeits came into the hands OF . local
collector today. 1t is an engraving
the first on record. Two spurious is
sues Of twenty-seven years ago were
Typographical =,
To the casual glance the new coun-
terfeit seems familiar enough, but
comparative examination quickly ex-
poses poor workmanship and reveals
many points Of variance from the
original Washington's head Is shorter
the nose has hook, the eyes seem to
glance furtively to the side instead OF
straight ahead, The queue appears
carelessly knotted and there are
smears where the genuine has deli
cate bits of engraving work.
70 Engraving on the neck of the courl-
terfeit father Of his country is in
dashes. The genuine stamp has Cross
Matching. The button is not well de-
fined in the fake stamp. the lock of
hair hanging over the ear is heavier
and much of the fine detail is missing.
There are no folds Of flesh under the
jaw. :.
The paper Of the counterfeit is
cheaper and thinner and the perfora-
tions number twelve every two cent?
meters instead of eleven.

Boy could give him. But 1t did annoy
him. He wanted to be left in peace
and comfort. and this two-legged
creature was making him most un-
comfortable.
To make matters worse, Sammy Jay
had discovered what was going on and
had at once shrieked the news at the
top OF his lungs. 1t had brought all
the other little people within hearing
and they were quite as excited as
Sammy Jay. Prickly Porky didn't like
such a noise around him. 1t added to
his peevishness. His dull little eyes
grew almost red with anger. He
wished that two-legged creature
would come within reach of his tail.
But Farmer Browns Boy was too
smart for that. He knew all about
that tail and he took the greatest
care to keep beyond reach Of it. He
knew that if it should hit him 1t
would drive many wicked little barb
ed spears into his flesh. So, he kept
at a safe distance and poked and shook
and shook and poked. And Prfckly
Porky grew more and more peevish. and
all the little people looking on grew
more and more excited.
