An official of the treasury department j says that not only do American en-J gravers of banknotes excel all others in the artistic quality of their designs, but that they likewise excel in the ingenuity of their provisions against counterfeiting. Jacob Perkins of Newburyport. Mass., invented the method of trans ferrlng designs from hardened steei j plates to steel cylinders and of retransferrlng to flat plates, thus enabling the engraver to devote the time necessary to accomplish his best work in the | original and reproduce it at will. Asa I Spencer, another Yankee, contributed another instrument, the geometric infhe. whloh renders difficult the sue cessful counterfeiting of paper money. ; Most European governments depend for the protection of their paper money upon color work.

Many Italian bank-j notes are easy to counterfeit A few i years ago the Bank of Spain was oblig | ed to abandon its own plant, since its notes were imitated so successfully that the counterfeits were without question accepted by the bank itself. A i private concern now does the work. The Bank of Greece employs the American method, having suffered a sad experience with notes of German, Austrian and English make. The American experts do not hold to the popular notion abroad that the notes of the Bank of England cannot be counterfeited. They contend thatl these famous notes can be imitated] readily enough, for little attempt is made to protect them beyond the use of a watermarked paper. One practical safeguard of great effectiveness is the custom of the Bank of England of canceling every note that is returned to the bank and issuing another in its place. This and the practice of keeping a record of the numbers of all banknotes used in ev i ery business establishment keep alive a keen sense of responflbility, which adds to security.?Philadelphia Record.

Ireland, is a remarkable edifice known as "Johnny Roche's Tower." The whole tower was built by the labor of one man, who subsequently resided in it. This individual, who received no education whatever, also erected a mill, constructing the water wheel after a special design of his own. Long before the introduction of the bicycle he went about the country in a wheeled vehicle of his own construction propelled by foot power. His last feat was to build his tomb in I the middle of the river bed. John i Roche died, but was not interred in the strange burying place which be selected for himself, his less original relatives deeming such a mode of sepulture unchristian.?London Strand Magazine.
