. *A FooL AND HIS MONEY.—One day last week a Schenectady man cashed a draft for $7OO at a bank, and received $3OO in small bills, which he put in his pocket, thinking by its size that the package contained the full amount., He was leaving, when the cashier handed him oyt the balance, $4OO, in new, crisp five-dollar notes. The man ook them, and, supposing they ‘were ladvertising notes, distributed . them among his friends. He was astonished at the eagerness of all to secure them, and was stunned when attempting jokingly to pass one in a store he was informed that the bills were good. He spent that night and the great part of the next day in rushing around collecting the bills he had given away.
