Lieban, a retired banker of Lon don. “In England gentlemen and busi ness men carry very little money with them. Nearly everything Is paid for by check, except, of course, money enough to pay the small Incidental ex penses of a day. “If a man goes Into a store to buy a hat, he does not pay money for It, but gives a check. If he Is dining at a public place, be very likely pays for his meal with a check. The system of credit in England Is different from that In this country, and the mere fact that a man has an account in a bank serves to give him standing. “One cannot open an account with a bank in England merely by carrying money to the bank and depositing it. He must have two first class refer ences before a bank will accept his ac count, aud when reference Is given It means that the person giving it would indorse or stand for the person to whom It is given. “A reference In Euglaud means more than a mere phrase. Checks ou banks in England cannot be obtained for the mere asking, and a man must have an account in order to get checks from any bank.

One of the most remarkable of these unaccountable eccentricities of disease took place at Halver, In Westphalia. The case was that of a boy who, as the result of a very heavy fall backward on bls head while skating, had fcr a vear and a half been deaf and dumb. One morning his brother went to awake him and. finding him sleeping heavily, tapped him lightly on the fore head. To his amazement the deaf and dumb boy awoke with a loud cry.

One day their king called their all together and proposed a plan which had In en in Ins mind for sometime. Thev were all,much pleased except one large giant who had been defeated trting t< become their king His name was |oe ami was very jealous. The plan which the king proposed was to build a large wall some six or seven miles out into the ocean and to extend thirty or forty miles up and down the coast, thus shutting in the clam flats. Th** water was • «> be drained out, all except a few feel, so that the clams would not die. There wns t»» be a large flood gate nt | northern <nd wiri« the water could be let in and out at will. They began a once on the wall. j Joel was secretly planning tn destroy | the wall that Ins brother giants had [ worked s » hard to build. One dark night he went forth to destroy the wall. i He had gone by a round about way so as not to be seen. He was near the northern end when he was m»*t by the king himself. The king had seen Inm go and suspected him, and had gone at once to the wall where he met Joel. Joel was asked why he was there but he would not answer. The next day Joel was arrested and had a trial in which he Confessed all. In a few days he was given a cup of mixture to drink. After drinking the ndxture he was turned loose. He wandered out to what is now known as Cape Mears] where he entered one of the cavesand fell asleep. He slept for six hundred years. When he awoke his first thought was of his o’d companions. He looked a long time for them but (hey were allfgone. Then he turned and looked for the wall which had been completed while he was asleep. He saw it and becoming angry started at once to destroy it. but it had grown solid after so many jean since it was constructed. Joel finally succeeded in breaking the wall in several places. These places are marked by styeral bays such as Tillamook, Netarts, and Sand lake. Those who have been to the sand spit will rcmemlier seeing how it .slopes to the north and how narrow the chan nel is. There are some rocks on the in side of the bav ami just where the chan nel seperates. These rocks are known as the “Old sow and pigs.’’ When Joel found that he was doing no harm to any one lie stopped his destruction and went wondering about the country in search of his people but they had all died long before. In despair he returned to the northern end of the wall where the flood gate had been, and jumping into the water just inside of the bay w here he was turned intofthe large rock which I have already described.
