Id their surveillance and apprehen sion of suspected persons government secret officers often find it necessary to "mark the money" handled by such persons. There are various methods of so marking the national currency, one of the most novel of which Is piu-prick. The note to be marked Is, say, $5 silver certificate bearing the vig nette of an Indian chief in full galia of feathers and trappings and presenting a full-face view. With the aid of a pin the secret service man makes two punctures In the bill rectly In the pupils of the Indian's eyes. To the casual and sometimes even critical inspector of the note these pin-pricks are invisible, raised to the light, however, the bill will distinctly reveal tl^em. The markings are complicated by the following process ; The pinpoint applied in the "twist" of the large figure 5 of the two upper comers of the note. These tiny twists do not appear on the "necks" of the two fig ures 5 that are ou both sides of the bottom of the note. The note Is now pierced again, this time at the ends of the scrolls on each side of the word "five" in the lower center of the bill. The marking is now complete. In secret It Is exhibited to one or more persons for purposes of Identification and Is then placed In the till or money drawer to which the suspected person has access. It is said that the pln-prlcks will re main perfect for some time. When such bills are produced in court and their markings are explained under oath conviction is practically certain. —Literary Digest. RED; EMBLEM OF DOMINATION Ha» From Time Immemorial Been Sig nificant of High Authority—Blue Called Cloak of Hoaveip Of all bright colors red is the favor ite among primitive peoples. It cites to violence in flags and uniforms. Red is the emblem of domination In politics and religion. The cardinal and the doctor of divinity have their red robes. On the other hand, red has replaced green in one respect as a restful color. At great state functions out of doors In India, such as a durbar, red umbrel las are preferred to green tlve sunshade. Blue has a minor influence. Curious enough, it appears only to affect the cat in the same way that red affects other animals. Humanity has a respect for blue, which is the cloak of heaven. legends and fairy tales It is the good little boy, destined to achieve success in life and marry a prlncqu, who is described as clothed In blue, while a red blouse serves for the bad boy. ex as an effec Dip CHOICE GROCERIES Every effort on our part is directed toward supply ing good things to eat and to maintaining pleasa nt relations with all tomers.
