27 Money Traffic 3 Exchequer Note
Advantage

scale: he will see what is to be got by the mere inaction:
by the mere forbearing to part with an individual
thing and without any such constant effort as is necessary
to add article to article to form a hoard.

Every man in this way may be his own Banker:
every man making Bankers' profit upon his own
stock. The facilitating this point of frugality
was one of the reasons for proposing the
to these notes the divisibility given to the notes of by
the Bank of England to their notes .

If a mans
being his own Banker will in this way have its
profits , it has its perils too : the perils from theft
fire and accidental loss . From these perils the
proprietor of a note thus divisible may be make
himself pretty secure humanly speaking , by dividing it and keeping
the two halves in different plans one suppose
in the custody of a friend. This adven security a
man never gains</delete> thinks of giving himself in the instance
of Bank notes except</delete> unless it be for the accidental purpose
of distant conveyance , because nobody can get anything
by keeping Bank notes nor therefore thinks of
keeping them for any length of time. But know it
would be worth while : keeping one of these notes would
to a poor man be like buying a little fortune into the
funds , and all without the expence of agency brokerage and
stamps, which in the funds would cut up the profit
upon a <del>s
capital several times as large .
