"OLD LADY OF THREAD- NEEDLE STREET." The Bank of England buildings cover about tour acres of ground, and the screen wall around, which is all the passing public sees, encloses a very pretty garden court, once the old churchyard ot St. Christopher-le- Stocks. The purpose ot the great wall (or protection has passed away. tor the Bank's treasure is now guarded by other means. But ever since the Gordon Riots, in 1780, the Bank has had a military guard at night. It is one ot the sights of London to see the Guards detachment marching through the City from their barracks each evening to take up their nightly vigil at the Bank of England. Started by a Scotsman. It is generally known that the origin of the great national institution was really the result of the financial straits ot the Stuarts, who were always want- ing to raise money, and not over- scrupulous in the ways of doing so. In the sixteenth century the mer- chants ot London used to deposit their surplus cash with the Mint or the Exchequer, King James Ir., just prior to his flight to the Continent, laid thicvieh hands on this money, and the merchants were rained, and English credit was brought to a sorry state. The Government of William III. were later on approached by a Scottish banker, William Paterson, and with its aid the Bank of England was founded to accommodate the mer. chants and then to raise money tor the Government to prosecute the war against France. The sum ot $6,000,- 000 asked tor from the public was subscribed in a few hours. This was then lent to the Govern. ment at eight per cent., and thus was the first ot the great national War Loans with which we have become so familiar. "Runs" on the Bank. The ttrrst "run" on the Bank ot Eng- land was in 1707. when a call ot twen- ty per cent. was made on its propriet- ors; but such was the trust in the Bank's stability that many of its cus- tomers, instead of withdrawing their accounts, paid in as much as possible. A second "run" came at the death of Queen Anne, when Bank stock tell from 126 to 116, and the crisis lasted for several days. A third "run" occurred when a sup- posed conspiracy to dethrone the King and send him back to Hanover was am nounced. The Pretender was to be brought over from France and placed on the Throne. A camp was formed in Hyde Park. The display of armed force had a good moral etteet, and the trouble to the Bank soon ceased. The greatest "run" in the Bank of England's history occurred at the time in the invasion of England by the young Pretender. When the now: reached London that he was at Derby, only 120 miles away. the City was Ttttnic-stricken. All having acccunta It the Bank winhed to draw their money out, and everybody wanted to cash the notes they held. The directors managed to cheek the great rush by an ingenious strataum. Persons in the employ of the Bank were given notes to present tor pay- ment at the counter. and the cashiers paid these in sixpencee. Those who received the cash, after having the ottice, returned by another dcor and paid the money back again This method or delay and hindrance of pay; Young wrmnn to take the Nurse!

Crimes against the Bank have been many, and they have caused it great trouble and Inconvenience In the put. The torgeries of Charles Price and his clever methods ot getting rid of the counterfeit notes were quite won. derful. 'He would alter the amounts on banknotes to higher sum in a way absolutely undetectable. Price't frauds lasted over a period of many years, but when at last he was run to earth he committed suicide. ' One of the most remarkable forgets of modern times was Henry Fauntle- roy. On his arrest as a fraudulent trustee a long list of torgeries on the Bank of England was found, by which he had caused a loss to that institu- tion of no less than $1,800,000. His ingenious reason for his crimes was that he bore a grudge against the Bank tor destroying the credit of his busi- ness, and he had sworn that it should smart for doing so. The embezzlement of Exchequer bills to the extent ot $1,600,000 by one of the Bank's cashiers, Robert Aslett, was one ot the greatest blows it ever had. A remarkable defence was a tea. ture of his trial, and he was ultimately acquitted. Among the great scenes which stand out prominently in the history of the "Old Lady" are the times when great loans have been floated. The talking up ot what was called the Loyalty Loan, in the 18th century, tur. nished a memorable scene. Mr. Pitt demanded a sum of t90,000,000 for political and patriotic purposes. The fitast day $25,000,000 was sub- scribed, the second saw the subscrip- tion reach $60,000,000, and on the third Jay so great was the crowd that num- bers could not get. near the counters, but called out their names to those in front, The total subscription for this sum was completed in just over fifteen hours. The Loans launched during the Great War, ot course, dwarf all the figures of the Bank’s pre. vious history, and provided many eventful scenes in the City and throughout the British Isles. A lady, whose wealth was of ob- viously recent origin, marched into a piano dealer’s shop and asked to be shown the most expensive instrument in stock. It was a lovely rosewood grand, and she bought it with brand new Treasury notes, says a London newspaper. A month later she re- turned in quest of a piano stool, and was shown several which would bar- monize with the rosewood ot the piano. She rejected these, and de- clared that she wanted a green one to harmonize with the color scheme of the room. "But, madam," said the dealer, "the color .of the pl'ano would_trcarcely blend with the green room, would it?" . "Oh, that's all right," said the lady. fwe had it painted green'." A motor dealer friend assures me that, when a very uncouth pair cam: to bu? a car, the most expensive one they had was not impressive enough to wit the woman, who said she wanted "gold 'andles to the car." Gold handles she had, too, though my friend was discreetly silent as to the loamy of her garage! A tale is also told of a certain pro- flteer who was showing a friend round his newly-built and beautiful-titted mansion. When they reached the bathroom the friend was speechless with admiration of the gorgeously- furnished chamber. " ,iairivitsiotr ot marble, alabaster and. gold.

Ednis voice was sharp with annoy- ance. There was a deep line between her level brows, and her very fingers showed her vexation. Sophie Oleson looked at her with a sort of amused contrition. Sophie did not know the meaning of the word order; yet every- one in the offlee liked her; no one could help it, she was so frank and friendly and kind-hearted. “Believe me, Edna Walker, I never saw anybody like you in my life. You'd know it if a fly flew across your dykl. I wasn’t there ten minutes, and I didn't touch a thing except your clips, and I put those back in the identical spot I took them from." "Well, I didn't say you were res- ponsible, Sophie, but it is certainly strange how my scissors and knife and blotter all disappeared! I found the blotter in the wastebnsket and the scissors in the filing cabinet. I haven't found the knife yet, but I haven't look- ed in the water cooler; probably I shall flnd it there." Edna herself was cooling down now; the look in Sophie's eyes made her ashamed. Yet she was sure that she had the right on her side. It was the inefiteieney of it that fretted her. she told herself. She had explained to Sophie a hundred times how the wast- ed moments counted up. Mr. Allen's bell rang jus' then, and Edna picked up her notebook and went into the office. She flushed a bit as she noticed that his door was ajar. She was sorry that she had called Sophie down so hard; yet she was sure that Mr. Allen would understand. If Mr. Allen had heard, however, he made no comment. An hour later Edna laid the !inisheri work on Mr. Allen's desk. Esra was; proud of her typewriting. ' Jis" cauld' hardly believe her ears, tharetore,t when Mr. Allen called her back andl pointed out a couple of errors, one in transcription mad one in spelling. ( " overheard your lecture to Miss oleton," Mr. Allen remarked with a smile. “I infer that you were a trifle wrought up." “Yam afr-aid I was," Edna acknowl- edged. "But it's such a needless waste of time." Mr, Allen nodded. “I know. You are very conscientious about your time, Miss Walker. I appreciate it. But did you ever stop to think that to let a thing get on your nerves is a worse kind of inefficiency than to misplace a pair of scissors? These mistakes of yours, which it will re- quire twenty minutes to rectify, are the direct result of your loss of poise. That's something to think of. The real loss is yours, not mine. Do you see'." A hot color swept Edna's face; but *she took the kindly reproof in the right spirit. Candy Making Without Cooking. ln warm weather, when the heat makes it a disagreeable task to work over a stove, the ordinary kind of cnndy making is not a pleasant oe- eupation---the results seem hardly worth while. The following recipes are for sweetmeats that can be made without heating any of the materials. Mock orttngec--Mix ar'tablespoon- ful of orange juice with the finely grated outside yellow rind of one orange, being careful not to grate into the white part, for that gives a bitter taste. Stir in the unbeaten yolk of one egg, and enough confectioners' sugar to make a paste that is tstiff enough to handle. Form it into balls about as large as a hazelnut, and in.. sert at one end of each a bit of grass or tiny Bower stalk. Place the candy on waxed paper to dry. Mock Lemrms.-Use the grated rind of lemon, and mix the asugnr with the whitey! the egg. Add a trace of the yolk'to give 'tt faint yellow tint. Form the paste into miniature lemons. Smothered Dates-Stuff dates with nuts and wrap them in the following paste: two tabtespoonfuls of softened butter, two of powdered cocoa, two of water, and enough confeetioners' sugar to_stifrcn the mixture. Peanuf Butter Whirls.--Mix a tea- spoonful of melted butter and a few drops of vanilla with one pound of etmfeetioners' auger. end add enough milk to bring the mixture to the con- sistency of stiff dough. Roll the paste into a sheet a quarter of an inch thick, spread a thin layer of peanut butter over it, and make it into a miniature iel1rroll about an inch in diameter. Slice the brown and white roll neatly into thin wheels or "whirlr" Tea and Coffee Balhs.---Steep either tea): coffee in twice its volume‘gf water-for example, two tablespoon- fuls of either in four of water.

I Brother John hates a city holiday [with its noise, and his soul yearns for Icountry quiet. He drops a line, the first a in a year, saying that he and "Mother" 'will run up for the First with the kiddies. He leaves the city's din, but brings along enough crackers and toy cannon fodder to turn the peaceful I countryside into a miniature "Marne." f Brother John goes home after the holi- day, but leave= "Mother" and the boys lfor a little outing with Mary. Sister 1 Susie's children are there, and the iehildren can have such a good time ‘together. And Mary just loves it. I The July guests depart in due time. and reluctantly, Mary manages to lean house for the second time, and is just wondering it she can't getaway lto the lake for a week, when fresh let- lters arrive. Brother Tom has his va- cation the first two weeks in August. [and there is no place like Mary's to jspend it. Ber blackberries are at their 'best. He and the wife and baby will Ibe up the first of August.

"Mttry," " the case may be, will do] it, because they just "love to work.“ Here’s Aunt Mary, for instance. Shei lives on a farm where butter and cream and milk and eggs and fresh, fruit and vegetables don't cost her at thing. They just grow. She has a' number of loving nieces and nephews: and sisters and brothers living in cities and small towns. AI soon " srhool; is out in June, all thoughts turn fond-l ly to Aunt Mary. She just loves chill dren. They don't bother her a bit.) Besides, she hasn't anything in her,' house they can hurt. So along aboutf knee deep in June, Sister Susie writes' the children are so anxious to see Aunt Mary she has decided to let them come' up for a couple of weeks as soon as school is out. l In between she is trying to can and pickle and tend the garden. Keeping the sewing and mending up is out of the question. Of course Mary loves company and is glad to see her friends. But I won- der if she just loves to have the whole family camp out on the farm every summer. I wonder if she is so fond of work that she really enjoys getting up at daybreak and "digging" until dark, while a houseful of guests "shine" on the verandah or in the lawn swing. I wonder, too, if through the fall, winter and spring, she enjoys working every minute so that father and the children can have the best to eat and wear, and leisure for reading and play. Don't you think Msrymould just love a little division of l'abor, a little help with picking up and cooking and dishwash- ing so that she might have some of the spare time? Unhe-lthy When He Died.
