Bank robbing has become so pop- ular a sport with daring criminals nowadays precautions are taken which would not have been thought of a few years ago. Bank employees are regularly drilled for action in case of a holdup or a raid, the in- stant performance of a certain duty by each man being required. As a result, in a number of recent instances daring attempts at rob- _| bery have resulted in the capture of | the bandits. The latest idea in this line for the protection of banks is a system | of automatic doors which may be closed at a moment’s notice by push- ing any one of a number of buttons | distributed through the bank. By this means the enterprising bandits may be shut in and actually made | prisoners, while simultaneously an alarm summons the police. Experi- ence has shown that the boldest | burglar, once trapped and unable to escape, becomes terrified and harm- | less, submitting readily to arrest. One bank in New York city has both its inner and outer doors equipped with the automatic closing | mechanism, so that if the robber | reaches the outer doors the inner ones shut behind him and he is trapped in the vestibule.

After the painful ordeal was | finished, she said modestly, “I know I | play fierce, but I'll get there some time !” Aunt Susan comfortably. “Why, most folks that couldn't play better’n you wouldn't play at all.”"—Life, Refined Schedule. “I want my daughter to have a real genteel education.” “Of course, we understand that, | madam.” studying about common nouns and vulgar fractions?” Privileged Few. “How do you explain the high cost | of living?” ‘I don't try,” said the woman with | a market basket. “Only those who are | not very seriously worried in an ef- fort to keep up with high prices have thme to talk much about them.” Change of Terms. “The expression of a man's carrying on high used to mean he was behaving very badly.” “Well?” “Now, noble conduct of an aviator.” Advice Disdained. As the soclety party were going over the vessel the guide sang out, “Low bridge !” “Oh!” said the chaperon, with a toss of her head, “I always play high.” “Taking Chances.

Baillie collection of book plates was recently present- j ed to the Metropolitan museum of. New York. The collection contains 25,000 items, nearly one-half of which are the work of American colonial engravers, including Paul Revere, Nat'ianiel Hurd, Maverick, | Dawkins and Doolittle. There are | 5,000 English plates in the collec- | tion. The most interesting of these are the Samuel Pepys plates, Mari- ott plates, one by Hogarth, one by Bartolozzi and plates which marked the books presented to the monas- tery of Buxheim by Hilbrand | Brandenburgh of Bibirach about 1475. The collection also contains the bookplate of Hector Pomer, cut by Hans Sebald Beham, German, in 1500-1550. WISDOM OF THE BENCH. Adolphe Babu, who for some pur- | pose of his own has been deosiving people into believing that he was | deaf and dumb, met his Nemesis at | Dijon in the person of an examin- (ing magistrate, who suddenly | crashed an inkwell onto the floor | and caused Babu to give unmistak- able proof that he clearly heard the noise. The prisoner then bragged how he had deceived various mili- | tary authorities, adding: “Judges certainly have more of the wisdom {of Solomon than any doctors.”— leasesaces Daily Chronicle. WILL KEEP SAWMILLS BUSBY. British Columbia sawmills have | received an order from the British government for 5,000,000 feet of | railway ties for the United King- | dom and it is expected that further orders will follow.
