"I had decided to leave Madrid for Toledo," said Captain Falls. "The train left before the banks had opened, but when I examined my letter of credit I found to my great joy that the bankers had Issued it on a correspondent in Toledo. It was the Royal bank of Spain. Arriving at Toledo, I located the bank and rang the belL After some delay a man appeared who wore a bandage about his jaw, as if suffering from toothache. Through my courier I explained that I wanted some money. "Ah, senor," he replied, "it is impossible. Tou must come back tomorrow and see the president. Today he can not receive you, for he is entertaining some friends. "I explained that I couldn't remain In Toledo over night, and that It was absolutely necessary for me to draw $100 on my letter of credit. I made no impression. The clerk withdrew and returned with a very pompous-looking gentleman, who turned out to be the bank president. The courier explained the situation and the president shook his head. "It Is out of the question, senores," he replied. "Today 1 am too busy entertaining, and I can not attend to your business until tomorrow. "I expostulated. In the course of which I employed a few good heavy objurgations of the explosive type which aJvr not current In Spanish dictionaries. 'How much does the senor require?' he asked. "Forty pounds,' I replied, having doubled the sum I had meant to draw. "He threw up his hands and exclaimed: 'Forty pounds! It is impossible. Why, that will require at least two or three days' notice.' But I insisted. "He ushered us Into his private office and waved us to seats. Then he wrote several letters. These he gave to the clerk, who left and returned in an hour laden with bags. He handed them over to the president, who emptied them upon the counter. There was silver, paper and copper— principally the latter, and when the president had counted It It was found to amount to the equivalent of $50. "I did not give up hope, however, for the president went to a vault, pulled out a cigar box and emptied it. Its contents totaled $100. That was all the money in sight, so I took It, but my pockets were bulging with a composite mass of silver, copper and dirty paper money. I had cleaned the bank."

Anna concluded by refusing her manager's suggestion that she motor back to Paris on the ground that her automobile is the only one In the world that has finely woven buy screens for all the windows. She had these made here after a sample from a Pennsylvania railroad dining oar.
