The new paper money to be
issued by the United States
treasury will be six inches lonpr
and 21-2 inches wide, instead of
seven inches hv three, as at j
present. On the backs there |
will not he a siorn of ^ dollar
mark or any fiprure of value and
no lettering except the "U. S.
A." ur^der the central fiprure.
There is no background, and in
the expanse of clear white paper
the new money will display it
will resemble the paper money
of European nations. The pictures
on the new money represent
America enthroned between
Peace and Prosperity, with Labor
brineine his products to Pros
perity and Peace dispatching
Commerce to distribute America's
commodities to the world.
These figures were drawn from
life by the artist. Kenyon Cox,
a professional model serving for
America and the artist's 15-yearold
son for Commerce. The
same design is to be used for the
backs of ail denominations. For
the face of the new money only
the one-dollar denomination has
as yet heeh accepted. It will
bear the portrait of George
Washington in a medallion in the
center and no other engraving
except a simple scroll work border
and the value in each corner. ,
Portraits of other presidents
will be used on the other notes.
Treasury officials expect that
practically all the notes now in
circulation will be replaced by
the new ones within two years.
We call attention this week to
our advertising columns. It will
pay you to give them careful
perusal. This much must be
admitted in favor of the adver
tiser. He wants your business,
he comes into tW open to bid for
ff, he W? pride* down in
bteck hnd white where vou can j
see what they are, he gives you I
his name ?rd number and you!
Will find him at the door ready
to welcome you. The generous
advertiser is invariably the
generons fellow. He bubbles
over with enthusiasm and when
you meet him you feel like you
had come in contact with an invigorating
breeze right from the
aea. The advertiser must be
given credit for being a pusher
and this is further attested by
the faet that among the fellows
who. In "life's race," got there,
he numbers nineteen to one,
compared to the fellows who
meet land seekers' trains to cop
out here and there a prospective
buyer whom the advertiser has
brought into the country, or who ,
sends small boys to stand before
the doors of the advertiser to
turn the crowds into his own
doors. The advertiser indeed is
the Siamese twin to the fellow
who followed the biblical instruction
and is not afraid to
cast a little bread upon the
waters.
Don't fortfet to plant a tree on
Monday, April 28, Arbor Day.
In some countries there are what
is known as schools of forestry.
They furniRh a course of instruction
that not only includes
the technical and botanical study
of forests, but embraces a complete
course in natural science
and tree culture. There is little
hope of such a beneficent exercise
of public spirit in this country.
But the subject should receive
more attention in our public
schools. And as for Arbor
v' '/ :

Day itself, let every citizen enter
into the spirit cordially and
heartily. It appeals to every
race and every creed. Let every
clergyman, every business man
and every professional man do
something to make the observance
befitting. There is need
of it.
