Washington, December 9.—Meeting
in the offices of the department of
commerce and Labor, the
Council of Commerce was o
this morning by Secretary Straus,
thus adding another to the list of na
' tional conventions in the nation's cap
ital this week. The council will seek
to further extend the domestic and
foreign trade of the United States,
and in its work it has the co-opera
tion of three score commercial bodies,
nearly all of which have sent dele
gates to today's meeting.
The principal business before the
meeting is to elect permanent
fleers of the organization, adopt by
laws, and to perfect a
followed by the council in its work.
The National Council of Commerce
which was inaugurated by Secretary
Straus in December last, has aroused

country, about sixty commercial

the United States having joined the
council since its first meeting,

NONE ABOVE $10,000
THAT IS BILL OF LARGEST DE
NOMINATION ISSUED.
Not to Exceed Two or Three of These
Notes in Circulation in the
United States—National
Bank Currency.
Ask yourself what is the hill of
largest denomination issued in the
United States? Careful now that you
don't overdo it.
The largest bill is for only $10,000,
and there are only two kinds of notes
that are as large—the United States
note and the gold certificate. Not
only this, bui probably there are not
to exceed two or three of these $10,
000 United States notes in circulation.
At a guess there may be 12,000 to 15,
000 of the gold certificates of the de
nomination.
There is a $5,000 United States note
of which there may he only a hand
ful, as against 50.000 of the $5,000 gold
certificates. It should be remembered j
that any national bank note of the
$5,000 and $10,000 denominations that
may be put up to you are rank coun
terfeits, for the reason that the na
tional bank Isn't allowed notes of such
size.
The national currency and the notes
of the national banks, however, num
ber the $1,000 notes by tens of thou
sands. This $1,000 note, largest of the
national hank bills, also is largest of
the sliver certificates and of the "coin"
certificates of 1890. A treasury report
of 1904 shows the comparative num
ber and kind of the $1,000 bills. In that
year these $1,000 were distributed 24,
683 in United States notes. 432 In
treasury (or coin) certificate notes, 24
of national hank Issue, 57,449 in gold
certificates, and 108 in silver certifi
cates.
The $500 bill runs through all these
classifications save that of the "coin"
issue of 1890. Thereafter, ln notes,
there are the $100 note, the $50, and
the $20 notes, through the five clasBl
ficaUons of the currency. Under $20
however, there are no gold certificates.
The smaller bills in the other lists are
the tens, fives, twos, and oneg with
which most of us are reasonably fa
miliar, on occasions at least.
The $10 United States note, with the
bison ramping across Its face, is the
commonest of the $10 bills, next to
which among the tens la the national
bank note, with the $10 silver certifi
cate third ln number. The national
hanks are strong on the twenties, too,
while having only a comparative
handful of oneg and twos.
As to the gold coinage the current
list Includes only the $20 piece, the
$10, the $5, the $2.50 piece, and the

EYESTRAINS
Errors of refraction (eye defects)
cause epilepsy, chorea (St. Vitus
Dance), indigestion, insomnia (sleep
lessness), vertigo, neuralgia, uausia,
neurasthenia (nerve exhaustion! and
almost always sick-headache. "In the
eyeB themselves they cause inflamma
tion of the borders of the lids, and
of the mucouB membrane of the eye,
styes, cataract, granulated lids, cross
eyes," etc., etc., all due to the con
tinuous effort that the nerves and
muscles of the eyes are put to by the
demands of the brain centers for clear
vision. Properly fitted glasses is the
only remedy for eye-strain, we do this.
