MONEY HIDING AT HOME HAS ITS DANGERS Geneva, Switzerland, Nov 11. (By Mail)—A miller who hid bank notes to the value of four thousand francs in a sack of flour during the recent scare caused by the proposal to levy a tax on capital, is now scouring the canton of Argovie in an attempt to recover his funds. The sack of flour in question was by error included in a delivery with other sacks, and sold by the retailer to some housewife who, thus, far, has not reported any unexpected prize in her package. A good many Swiss during the money scare drew their money out of banks and confided it to improvis ed depositories which in some proved to be unsafe. One man following the example of the farmer of Lorient, France, put a thousand franc note in a gun bar rel and then forgot it. He shot the money away, a few days late rwhen firing at a rabbit. oAnnouncmg ^he Good MAXWELL Housewives who pre flour, and like the ' delighted with ) Quality Plus flour.
