TO THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING OUT FOR A RAINY DAY. coa-tain- J Mr. Bailee, the broker, bad a new typewriter.

He had been uncomfortably impressed with ber dignity; now she should learn what it was to feel that way toward him. So the next morning he called ber in, and after dictating a few business letters be said: "Now, on the smaller paper, please. Are yon ready? Let me see."

When they are finished let me see them." He thought he detected a slight unbending i& the superior manner of the young woman, but he was not too hopeful. "If those don't impress her," he said, "111 write a letter of regret to the queen tomorrow, and one to Gladstone, telling him I can't come over this summer to spend August with him." When the girl brought in the letters, finished and ready for his signature, he tossed them aside and said: "I will sign carelessly . II VII Al t , teem later, ana iu post mem myseu. He signed them and slipped them in their ' envelopes under bis other papers, where the clerks might not see them, and planned more for the future. On the day following he refused three invitations to dine with distinguished people, him ordered an architect to call and i- port, and wrote to order a diamond necklace. The typewriter girl began to take a Sttle more interest, and said "Yes, sir," instead of simply ?Yes," which was something. He felt that he was getting on. I But on the fourth day she appeared with eveu a colder and more haughty air, and laid three letters down upon his desk. . She always opened his mail for him, and divided the private notes from the business letters. "Here," she said, three notes which I did not know (are whether to hand to you or to the clerk." Bulles glanced at the bottom of one of them and read the naiSi "Charles Burgess." The note ran: "Henry Bulles Dear Sir: I am in receipt of a note signed by you and Bearing the number of your office, which refers to a yacht and an imaginary correspondence which has passed between us on the subject of such a yacht As I do not know you or anything of any such yacht I can only imagine that some one is imposing upon you, and return you your letter.'

"More counterfeit money is in actual circulation than people in general believe," remarked a teller in one of Chi"Of cago's leading banks recently. course only the better class of counterfeits remain in circulation, and even then do not pass undetected long. The detection of a counterfeit bill, however, does not retire it from circulation by any means. A grocer, for instance, who finds a five dollar counterfeit bill in his money drawer at night, is liable to argue that he cannot well afford to lose the amount, and also that a counterfeit which was good enough to deceive him is good enough to deceive some one else. "The next day some customer gets it in change, and ten to one it is passed through a dozen bands before the discovery is again made that it is bogus. But its mission does not end here. Perhaps the last holder of the bill can tell who paid it to him. If so the counterfeit starts to retrace its course, but it rarely goes very for before it Btops, and the whole scheme is worked over again. We frequently have counterfeit money offered for deposit. A merchant may bring in several hundred dollars, and among the bills is a single counterfeit Of course it is thrown out as soon as it is discovered. But where does it go? Into the hands of the man that brought it in. Does he destroy it? Perhaps, if he is a scrupulously honest man." Chicago Mail Cnstom. Railway ticket offices still retain the old name of "booking office," which was appropriate enough in the coaching days, when the names of intending passengers were literally booked. Another curious survival is the practice of eating game and venison "high." We never eat poultry or beef and mutton "high," but game and venison used to be sent long distances and be a considerable time on the road, so that they could hot be received in a fresh state. Hence it became customary and even fashionable to eat them "high," and the practice has endured to the present day. Then there is the old fashioned greeting, "God be with ye." Perhaps not all know that the meaningless words "good-by- " are a compression of the above pious wish. London Tit-Bit-s. Old Eng-Ua- JOHN HALLET AND MISS I LILLIAN Dashing Seriocomic E. R.
