THE FACE ON THE DOLLAR

A Philadelphia Girl Posed rs Model for the
Goddess of Liberty.
Anna Willess Williams, the original of
was born in Philadelphia during the Civil
War, writes Alice Graham McCollin in the
July Ladies' Home Journal
Early in 1876 the Treasury Department
secured the services of Mr.. George Morgan,
an expert designer and engraver, who had
previously been connected with the Royal
Mint of England. He was assigned to duty
at the Philadelphia Mint upon the design
for the new silver dollar which was soon to
be issued. He gave his attention first
10 the reverse side, for which a
design of the American eagle was
atterward selected, hoping that a
suitable idea would occur to him for the
head of the Goddess of Liberty, which, it
seemed proper, should be used as the prin-
cipal figure on the coin. After consider
able delay and frequent change of plan, it
was decided that, if possible, the head
should be a representation of some living
American girl
In the pursuit of his duties Mr.. Morgan
had been thrown into the society of Mr..
Thomas Eakins, an artist of considerable
reputation, and the similarity of their in
terests became the foundation of a warm
friendship between them. 1t was through
Mr. Eakins' influence that Miss Williams,
q friend OF his family, was induced to pose
for Mr.. Morgan for the designs of the God
dess Of Liberty. The sittings took place
at the residence of Mr.. Eakins. on Mt Ver-
non street, below Eighteenth, in November,
1876. 1t was sometime before the cap, with
Its sheath, was decided upon.

Hot Drinks Are Now Urged n Being Bet
ter Than Cold Ones.
St. Louis Glote-Democrat.I
The statement of one of the leading city
health officials few days ago that large
number of alleged sunstrokes are really ag-
gravated cases of delirium tremens, bears
out the argument that has been made in
temperance circles for several years. 1t is
some time now since there was anything
approaching an epidemic of sunstroke in
St Louis, but during the last very bad cpl
demic careful inquiry was made into the
habits of the victims, and it was found that
quite large proportion had been drinking
to excess before they were overcome by the
heat
A city suffers from a record of large
number of sunstrokes, and it is important
that cases of excessive drinking should not
be enormously classed with them. It is
frequently stated in temperance circles that
q man who never drinks to excess is in no
danger Whatever of a sunstroke, and there
what exaggerated statement.
Hot drinks, such as tea and coffee, are not
SO tempting in extremely hot weather as
iced drinks, but when well prepared they
are invigoraiing as we'll as refreshing, and
by promoting perspiration they remove all
danger of sunstroke, the first symptom of
which is always dry, hard skin, without a
particle of moisture. have seen sunstroke
patients in the far West where there was
no ice saved by the liberal use of very hot
coffee, although no doubt the remedy is a
dangerous Que, only to be justified by the
emergency

SIGNALING THROUGH THE FOG.
Electricity Is Now Being Considered as a
Possible Means.

Electricity Is Now Being Considered as a
Possible Means.
$50 far as appears from the present out
look, future telegraphic progress promises
no great revolutions. Methods and means
will, no doubt, become more and more re-
fined, and greater speeds be attained" says
Prof Elihu Thomson in the July Nep
England Magazine
''The more general introduction of multi
plex systems will increase the capacity of
the lines and decrease the costs and more
attention will be given to permanence of
lines and to securing immunity from ex-
tended Interruptions due to storms. 1t
may be remarked here, however,
that electricians are not without
some hope that signaling or telegrahping
for mod crate distances without wires, and
even through dense tog may be an accom-
plished fact soon. Had we the means of
obtaining electric oscillations of several
millions per second, or waves similar to
light waves, but of vastly lower rate of
vibration, it might be possible by suitable
refectors to cause them to be carried mile
or SO through fog, and to recognize their
presence by instruments constructed for the
purpose.
"Many of the difficulties and dangers
which now beset the navigator would. at
least, be lessened, if not removed. Signal
ing or telegraphing without wires is no new
proposal, and there have been many such
proposals which are extravagant and i'm
practicable. The fact is, however, the es-
sential means are not yet forthcoming.

Several Reasons Advanced That Throw
Light on thu Subject.
Do you know, my positive woman, WHY
women do not vote? writes Edward W. Box
in "At Home With the Editor" in the
August Ladies Home Journal 1t is because
the vast and overwhelming majority OF
women in this country do not want the bal
lot, have absolutely no desire for it, and do
not waste a moment of their time thinking
about it.
Do you know why these women do not
care to "broaden" their minds by reading
Ibsen? 1t is because they think. they
sweeten their lives by reading Haw-
thorne and Thackerey and Longfel-
low and Walter Scott and Charles
Dickens and the great mass of living
writer's whom you believe simply burden
the earth with their presence. Do you
know why these women will not don the
ridiculous 'treform" garments which you
unblushingly faunt before audiences of
American girlhood? 1t is because they
prefer to be womanly, and dress tastefully
and prettily as God intended women should
dress
Do you know whv these women will not

have little club in their own homes, and the
members of It are their own flesh and blood,
with which God has sanctioned and beau
titled their lives Do you know WHY they
turn with disgust from your paintings about
'the rights of our sex?" Because their
husbands give them every right of love and
kindness they want.

TRAITS OF THE ABYss1NIANA
They VIII Not Eat in the Open Air 10
Fear of Being Seen.


Fear of Being Seen.
The Century.1
The Abyssinian has a singular super.ti-
tion regarding eating in the open. To him
a fit of indigestion from over-feeding would
mean the evil eye. He would feel assured
that some part of the performance of appeas-
ing his appetite had been observed. In
walking along highway in this country,
the. writer came across what appeared to be
a large bundle of washing just little off
the road. On approaching it, the movement
going on within was plainly discernible.
Covered up In their shemas, or cloths, were
three men eating their midday meal. So
much in fear are the people of the evil eve,
that they carry amulets containing prayers,
and ellis of parchment several yards long;
and pictures illustrative of the triumphs of
the good spirit over that CIRCULAR absur6ity
are Kept in their houses for protection.
If an Abvssinian sells you anything. and
is we'll inclined, he will caution you to keep
it indoors and covered up; for if an evil eve
should fall on your purchase it might spoil
|or disappear, which latter contingency is
much more probable in Abyssinia- Your
correspondent had some experiences Of the
kind of evil eye that caused goods and chat
tells to disappear. 1t cleaned for an in
slant in the head Of an Ethiopian whom :.
caught walking off with some dollars from

of the evil eve smiled innocently when de-
tected, but the smile faded away under the
influence Of the paymaster's boot

The laurel patch was off to the right, and

short cut across hill to reach the patch
and go around to its upper edge before the
bear could reach it and 60 through, direct
ing us to take positions in the hollow south
of the patch.
''If the bar gifts through them laurels,"

Abel got around the patch before the bear
got into it, and we got to our places in the
hollow some time after the bear disappeared
in the laurels. Ten minutes later the re-
port of Abels rife echoed among the hills.

dogs came tumDling out of the thicket and

Three rife balls were sent after him as he
crossed the hollow, the remaining dog at his
heels, but he kept right on. We were soon
Joined by Abel, who, although the bear had
successfully run the gantlet of every gun,
and had killed one of the dogs, was radiant.
"We've euchered Cub Conners, all the
same!' he exclaimed. II wish that dog
lavin' over yonder had ben him! Well
git that bar back into our laurel patch
ag'in, an then''s he's our meat!'
Back over the six miles of hill and thicket
and hollow, weary, hot, hungry, thirsty,
tattered and solled, we followed the trail
once more. 1t was late in the afternoon
when we ran the bear into the laurels we
had started him from in the morning.
''Now, then, by Jupiter" exclaimed
Abel. "I'm gointer foller that bar right
into the patch, an have some fun with him.
We got him away from Cub Conners pooty
slick, an I'll twit the consarned pirate of
it, next time see him."
Cub Conncrs' Meat After AL
Abel was about to plunge into the laurel
pa ch, after directing US where to go, when
the report of rifle, quickly followed BY
another. came from the edge of the patch
off to the right. Abel looked surprised. I
hurried off in the direction of the shots,
and Abel came along On that side of the
laurels I came suddenly upon a strapping
big backwoodsman. He was leaning on the
muzzle of his rifle. One foot was on big
bear that lay dead on the ground, with Jim
Souser's remaining dog shifting at it. The
W oodsman was looking at us with peculiar
grin. Abel stopped as if he had been shot
when he saw the man. As soon as he found
his voice he exclaimed: "Cub Conners, by
Juniper!'' ,-
II ben tryin' to round up this cunnin' old
bar fer two weeks" said the big woods
man, but he was too many fer me alone.
I'm much obleeged to you fellers ter helpin'
me out with him.
He grinned worse than ever. Abel turned
on his heel and strobe back to camp, and I
followed him. He didn't speak for an hour.
Then he smote the fiat of one hand with his
fist and exclaimed: 'Even bars hain't safe
in these woods no more!' ED MOTT.

resolution on February "a. 1868, impeaching
him for high crimes and misdemesnors. The
trial began before the Chief Justice
of the United States and the Senate sitting
as court for the trial of impeachments, on
March 49, 1868. The trial lasted for two
months, and ended on May 26, when 35 Sen
ators voted guilty" and 10 voted mot
guilty." As two-thirds vote was neces-
sary to convict, the President was acquitted.
A change of one vote would have convicted
him: The nineteenth Senator was Mr..
