Much money has gone to the people through the national banking system and few farmers it has been who have borrowed direct from banks. Speculators have done the borrowing, at enormous rates, always presenting their account to the producer when they bid on products.

The masses are not conscious of how dependent they are on national banks. The farmer goes to market with his product, wheat say. When the speculator comes to bid on it he knows his price at the elevator; he knows the cost of storage, insurance and transportation; he knows the cost of interest in the bank for money with which to pay for same; all this he counts in and then makes a very wide margin for the fluctuations consequent to speculation in futures. Then it is that he makes his bid, the farmer losing all these incidental expenses. The speculator gives his check on a bank with which he has previously arranged to deliver a bill of lading (which simply transfers the wheat to the bank) until the wheat is sold, thus securing the bank.

These banks do not deal altogether with money lurnace. bo far as we ore concerned, and so Petrllled Man Found.

He was a young fellow, well dressed, wearing a silk hat and a nice overcoat, and carrying a shawl-strap. He made a rush to board tho train as it pulled out, but just late enough to have the gates closed on him. Then he asked the guard the time of the first out train in tho early morning, and started as if to leave by the down-town side-stairway. But he only went half way down, waited till he heard the guard retire to tho warm office, and came back. After a careful scrutiny he walked quietly up to the globe, nearly full of silver, drew from his shawl-strap a heavy piece of blanket and a sort of big nut-cracker made of iron and nearly two feet long.

He first wrapped the blanket tightly around the glass globe in the brass bracket, then put the iron nut-crackers outside of all, squeezed hard, and the heavy glass broke to smithereens with hardly an audible sound.

two boards joined by a strong hinge, with a hole passing through both the hinge and the boards. The extremities of the boards are provided with straps, which can be fastened to the feet of the man using the device. The method of climbing by this apparatus is simple. When the feet attached to the boards are lifted the rope is free, but the moment the feet are pressed down on the two boards the rope is firmly gripped. It is necessary, therefore, only to lift the body by both hands as far as is possible, and then it can be held by the hinged clamps until another lift is made.

By the use of a belt to hold the body close to the rope the hands may be left free. This device is designed especially for the use of firemen and painters; also to servo as a fire-escape.
