In the centre of the City of Lon don rise the dark and frowning walU of the Bank of England. Wall round them nerly four acres in ara and you will find to your astonish ment that no window looks outfron the giim exterior to the streets be low a pecautionary measure against burglars. But enter the doorway, and behold., the scene is changed. Here ar courts and quadrangle with bright windows in plenty; people movt briskly hither and thither; a gor geously arrayed beadle is ready tc answer vour questions; and, marvel lous to behold, a beautiful little gar den flourishes delightfully in the midst. In their season rhododendrons bloom here in a!l their beauty; wide spreading trees cast a cool shade; even in tha winter the evergreens try to look cheerful, and the foun tain splashes merrily all the yeat round. Th;3 pretty garden occupies the site cf an old City churchyard that of St. Chriatopher-le-Stoc!cs and the ancient church itself was pulled down to make room for the Bank building. If we enter a door marked Issue Department, and, havlr.g a permit from the Governor, ate allowed tt c'imb upstairs to a certain long, nar row room, we shall see bank-note-printed. There is, however, really no great difference between the ac tual ptinting of bank-notes and other printing from electrotjpe plates; but the paper is unique. That is the specialty of the Bar.V of England note, its paper, witr its various water-marks and its pe culiar color. There is none ether like it in the world, and itsmanufac- ture is a complete secret. i A few points concerning it are ! known, but they would not assist b forger in the very slightest degree. Pure linen rag is employed and thf j paper is hand-made in small sheets, ' which are afterwards cut into two halves for the notes. Thus each j j note has three roUgh edges and one : smooth. The paper is manufactured at s special mill by Messrs. Portal near Laverstock ' in Hampshire, but the dies which make the important and varied water-marks are constructed at the Bank itself, and the water marks differ according to the valuf of the note. But the most amazing thing of all is the great strength of the paper. Most people are acquainted with itr crisp and crackling sound, but though so thin yet a double sheet will bear a weight of many pound. near a half a hundred weight, it is said, a fact of which perhaps few persons are aware. The peculiar character of the white color 13 also believed to be unique, and is part of the treneral secret; while the ink for i the printing is also special; it is a ! very fine black, and is completely in j delible. Furthermore, each note has I its own number, although a total of i -lome 6O.C0O are printed every day. has thus marks of its own indivi- dufility, while bearing a strong fam ily likeness to its brethren. When I saw the notes printed they were being produced called double-cylinder . . ,u-; nunpr he mar whirled r on what are machines, the ! paper being whiriea rouna inecyun- ders which press it on the eiectro ! typCbelow, and the figures for im ' nrssino- the numbers on the note? j .t. i: being moved by an ingenious lever which operates at the same time as the cylinders revolve Notwithstanding the completeness of arrangements for producing these unique notes, the cost is said to be le& than a half-penny for eash one. Everv note is cancelled when sent to the Bank, no matter how short the time it has been in circulation. The signature is cut off, it is registered, and is stored with its fellows for five years in boxes kept in the vaults. Finally the cancelled notes are Kn mf Thousands of notes are canceneu every day, there being a special can cellation office; an official memoran dum some time ago said, "the stock of paid notes for five years is about 63,000,000 in number, and they fill 13 000 boxes, which, if placed side by side, would reach two and a quar ter miles." .

The price when an to standard is fixed at 31. 17s. 9J. per ounce, and it is generally off ered n the shape of bars or small bricks, fnis "bullion" is stored in vaults on 1 13 east, or Bartholomew Lane side of the Bank until sent to the Mint lo be coined. Light coin is also tcst J at the Bank by a most delicate nd beautiful little instrument, and vvhen found wanting is retained anc sent back to the Mint toberecoined. The store of gold held by the Bank is enormous, sometimes reaching to 0,000,000, and every note issued has its equivalent in gold or govern ment securities. There rre other departments be sides the Issue Office. There is the Mational Debt Division, occupied with Consols and Government secur ities and all the public loans which it controls and with the payment of iividends tberon; the e is also the Government Banking Department, practically a national treasury, and a'so the Private or ordinary Banking Department. All the London banks keep accounts here, from which they z&n draw at need. At night the Bank is guarded by soldiers. A half-company marches every evening from Wellington Bar racks to this financial citadel, and the cfnVers and men are regaled with a good dinner before commenc ing their watch and ward. A would be burglar, even if he were able to et within the fortress, would be likely to experience a foot of cold iteel or a bullet in his body. The Bank is a little more than two hundred years old. Its growth has been enormous. At first some fifty persons sufficed for its business; now they are numbered by hundreds. It was founded in 1694, an enterprising Scotchman named Paterson having a part in the project.

He had seemed prosper ous his waiting-room had bean full of patients, and his wife and little children well dressed. But at his death the household furniture and even his wife's belongings had to be disposed of to get together enough money to take her back to her pa rents, who were not able to do sny more than give her and the children a home. There wa3 no life insurance, for the doctor had long had disease of the heart, and could not get in jured in consequence. Yet he had never saved anything. "We couldn't 3ave." explained the widow, "for he had to have things look prosperous in order to extend his practice, and it took every cent." The astonishing thing about it was that to many of her acquaintances this seemed an entirely sufficient ex planation. As a matter of fact, dozens of them were living the same way. except that a life insurance of small amount was carried. Their incomes had no margin of saving. And this condition of living without a margin is very common in other cities and towns the land over. The American family is optimistic. It is always going to have a large income next year, or in five years. It de sires to keep up in social matters with the people next door or further up the street. It buys pianolas or automobiles or encyclopedias on monthly payments, but puts no monthly installment into the savings ban't. It has no margin of security. The only margins it considers are the stock margins, in which the head of it sometimes speculates with the hope of making a little more to eke out its expenses. College professors, lawyers, doctors, the subordinates of large business concerns, may be highly clever in other respects, but in living to the very edge of their incomes they are often profoundly unintelligent. The habit of saving is a habit that makes for family restf ulness and se curity. The name oi me maigiu of a remainder of time that is not consumed by rush and hurry, a re mainder of strength that is not flung into a whirl of daily work, a remain der of money that is not consumed utterly in the daily expenses-is a habit that Americans need practical ly and psychologically.

GO TO WORK FOR MODEL FARMS Build Agricultural Schools and Occd Roads Ail Over tiie Stile. DZHOXSTSATlON FARMS ARE NEEDED. (W. F. Massey, in IVok-ressive Farmer.) W7e have a plenty cf test farms, experimental farms, but if every county had a model farm, a money making farm conducted on the best business plan, it would teach the sur rounding farmers that a farm car make money while bu.ldlng itself up to a more and more producti ve char acter. Such demonstration farms are needed. The demonstrations carried on by the Department of Agriculture are all right so far as they go. But we nesd a farm in every county that is til demonstra tion, in every field and with every crop, demonstrating, not what can be done with heavy fertilization, but what can be accomplished without heavy expenditures, but through making the farm build itstlf up to a high state of producdveress while paying a pr-fit all the time. It i? easy for a nvlhonaire to improve a farm by a liberal expenditure re gardless of cost. But that does not teach the farmer whe has not the means to imitate it, asd who wants crops that cost a good deal les? than they will sell for every year from the start. It cannot he done 3 rapidly as the millionaire would do it, perhaps, but that it can be dane has been shown by the experience of many who have worked up on a poor f arm from poverty toindepeadence. Such a farm would, of couise, accept the proved results cf the experimenters, but would rigidly avoid experimen tation in unknown lines, leaving the unsolved problems to the Experi ment Station. while having for its aim the development of productivity of that soil the year after, while eve ry year paying a profit oi every crop, disasters of theseason only excepted. Such a fat hi could berhade the post graduate school for your.g men who have studied the sciences connected with farming, and wro would reed the practical work of a farm hand to round out their study and make them real farmers. It is characteristic of the North Carolina people to consider long and thoroughly any new proposal, and whn ence convinced cf its value to go ahead and do it thoroughly. And they are becoming convinced of the impottanee of teaching elementary agriculture in the rural schools and the establishment of district high schools of agikulture, and they de termined to have these, and will have them. And once convince the peo ple of North Carolina that they can have a profitable, not a public ex pense, model-farm in each county, and they will have tliem in spite of any obstacle. All over the State they became convinced that they needed better schcol-houses and graded schools, and they have built them all over the State, and will build more. , They are becoming more and more convinced that they must have good roads, and they are getting them as fast as any State in the country, ar.d we hope that our "Good Road Spe cial" will help push the movement along. Maryland has appropriated five milllicn dollars for a State road thvoush. every county. North Caro lina should take step3 toward a gen ereal main system of State roads gradually connecting with the roads the counties are building, so that in stead of the short series radiating out from the chief towns, there will be a net work of hard and well grad ed roads fron the western mountain line of the State to -the sea, over which every farmer can haul his produce with ease to the shipping noint.' Most parts of the State are well supplied with railroads, but to thousands they are of far les3 value than they should be on account of the difficulty in hauling over the roads leading to the stations. It is a big thing, but it i3 only a matter of j time when our peopte will get there, j Already the people in other States are talking about the way North Carolina is building good roads, and while plunging through the mud and over the rock3 in Pennsylvania last winter, I told them how Mecklen burg county is building macadamiz ed roads, and they seemed to think it a fairy tale. The had some fine turn-pikes up there built by corpor ation to which every one must pay toll, but the macadamized public roads are few and far between, ex cept in the neighborhood of the great and wealthy citie3 like Phila delphia and Pittsburg. The Pennsyl vania Dutchman will pull through a j lot of mud to get on to a ton turn' j v'ke, and never tH .k that the rone's j 1 .-aoing to the pike should be as got d as the pike. 1 roJa ever scmo awful roads and steep hills there last win" ter, while thi3 summer I bowhd along on some North Carolina roads, never breaking a trot even in a hilly country, for the road was graded far beeter than the toll roads cf Pennsylvania. Good hard stone roads cost a gocd deal of money to build and keep in repair, and they cannot all be built at once, but North C ai'oiina has started in bail ling them and she is not going to stop. Even in Mtvk lnburg, where they have so many miles of stone ro.id.-j, I noticed great piles of stone ranked along the other roadi, indicating that 'the work had not stopped, and in other counties I saw many miles of smooth roads, and it is evident that the Old North State 13 going to get there ahead of any other Southern State. She f eels the bad road tax and is going to get rid of it. No tax that cculd be levied for making and keeping up good roads will ever equal the tax nov paid for bad ones.

Mothers would spare themselves greatly if they would only learn that training of the child begins with the earliest weeks, and that they can make the child understand many things that they would r.ot believe possible. When the mother is remonstrated with for spoiling the child by over indulgence, she will pay: "My child is different from others; she is mere nervous. If 1 do not ta.e ner she will cry and make hersalf sick." The child in the beginning, finding that the mother ran to it the minute that it began to cry, of course seen j learned this method of summonirg her. It also perceived that the loud er the cry the greater the indul gence, consequently it develots speedily jnto a despot, beneath whose tyranny the mother grows wan and pale. When it is said of her: "She is a perfect slave to her children," she looks satisfied and pleased, as if she had won a martyr's crown, instead of which she ha3 use lessly squandered her strength, and prevented the child from learning proper habits, which are as neces sary to his growth and development as it is that he should learn to walk instead of creeping the rest of his life, because he may fall and hurt himself, and cry now and then.

All through the lowlands of Mexi co and throughout Central America and the West India Islands the ba nana is as common as the apple in new England. Nearly every back yard has its banana tree, if not a small orchard, and almost every pho tograph brought back by travelers, is sure to show at least one of then; prctureFquc tree3. It grows so ex uberantly and is used in so many ways that it may be clasred as a weed, a vegetable, and a fruit. In deed, if care were not taken to cut out the young shoots each tree would scon become a thick impenetrable jungle. A banana orchard is a beautiful sight, with its clusters of green or yellow fruit and sprsys of bloom, which may all be found on what is practically the same tree. The ba nana farmer watches hia tree3 very carefully and permits three shoots to grow out from the root of ach tree which he plants. He is careful to sec that the interval of time in their growth in such that when the oldest shoot is bearing frc.it, the next is. in blossom, the third is half- grown, sn. ttie last is just coming out of the ground, thus making the tree a soft cf botanical Komtn candle, sending up fcur branches of fruit into the air in quick succes sion. Hie banana rivals the modern hy gienist in its demand for sunshine and water. It cares litile indeed, what eoi t of soil in sends its roots in to, so lung as it has water and sun shine in plenty. The blightest touch of the frost is fatal. A great hustler is the banana tree, and it spends no time in idling. The farmer plants a little shoot and in less than a year it is a full grown tree with a Lunch of ripe bananas gracefully hanging from its top. It divot i'.sj energies to the one pur- I pose of growing nd accomplishes what it sets out to do. Nor is the banana easily disccur- 'aed. Perhaps the fanner canes along some day and Cut3 eff the stalk. One would naturally suppose that that would be the end of tl e b marta tree, but not so. In twenty minutes a little swelling appears i: the middle of the stump which soon nashes its way upward and a ti'ht ro yf decapitated leaves are seen, jn e,jftt hours, not only the cut ioaves, but perfect leaves, tightly j-yd re 5Cen anj the &hoot will be Uv0 fett U!j rn thirty-one hours a beautiful plant with four graceful waving leaves will be found growing oat of the old slump. This seems hard to believe, but Mr. E. A. Agar, receritjy took for the New York State D .-prtmcnt of Public Instruction, a scries of remaikable photographs showing these facts, which have been exhibited at numerous lectures given in the public schools of New York. The owner of the plantation where Mr. Agar took the photo graphs says that the particular plant photographed was working under somewhat difficult condition?, be cause of the dry weather at that time; but, nevertheless, in one month the tiee was as large as ever. Twenty years ago bananas in Amer ica were a rarity and were used onlv. i.s a special dainty. Now, however, they are cn every breakfast table and are almost as common as apple?'. They are brought from tropical American countries in great cargoes of thousands of bunches and are now, fortunately, sold at a price which is within the means of even the poorest people.
