Neal. stating to all whom it may con- cern that the bearer was reporter of unusual ability. We shall not be sur prised if the financial editor of the World walks in at any moment with a like sheepskin from Bro. Neal.

All that is necessary to restore prosperity is to re- verse ssll; this legislation and give 'the speoPle achance.

DOLLAR OFtOUR DADD1ES.
A History or the Much Discussed Coin.

A History or the Much Discussed C0in
 The silver dollar, which is again a disturbing element in the Financial prosperity of the country, says the Detroit Free Press, seems to have had lot of trouble in it's day and ger eration, and it is now getting back at the United States treasury with alarm. ing persistency, Some of the facts con- corning it are of immediate interest and wllltbear summing up. Here is the chronological history of the silver dollar:
 Authorized to be coined, act Of April ?. l792; weight, 5l6 grains, Hneness S92 4.
 Weight changed. act of January IS, 1887, to -4l2@ grains. Fineness changed, act of January IS, IrS37. to 900 Coinage discontinued, act February Il2. 1S78.
 Total amount coined to February 12, Il1S37. $8. .0S1 .23S. Coinage act thorized, act February 28. 1878.
 Amount coined from March 1, 1878 1 to December 31, 1887, $2S3 ,R5, ,357 (ln. cluding $lsS27 recoined.) Total amount coined to December 31 , | 1889, $357sS69, ,239 The first silver dollar was put in cir culation in l794 | s'It was a crude design" says a his torian 'sGn the ObverSe or face of the coin was imprinted the face of 2 young lady facing tosthe right. Hel
 hair was flowing to ouch an extent that she looked as if taken in a gale of
 wind"
 In 1796 congress stepped in to the
 aid of the typical damsel and tied hel
 hair up with bit of ribbon. l The fifteen stars were after this re.
 duced to the Origiual thirteen iE Etrecog
 milton of the number of states. 1 In 1886 tire design was again chang | ed, and tke silver dollar bore a full | figure of neatly dressed woman in q 1 flowing garment. The designer lforgot however, to put in the thirteen stars l and the coin was sOoG called iE. Any
 person nowsin possession of one Of these
 dollars has a valuable souvenir. | The new design had the lady sur
 rounded blythe stars. IL was 'en i'm prOvementon its predecessor. but the
 air of the female figure was defiant and
 stiff.
 The dollar of 1888 was the first artis- tic piece of silver coined by the United Estates mint.
 On April 9, 1864. the first dollar
 having the legend, ''In God we trust
 was coined. l In 1873 the era of the trade dollar of 900 fineness began. That troublesome
 dollar ran it's cratic course in just five
 wears.

 pearance. Miss Anna w. Williams a

 profile being then considered themost
 perfect obtainable. Her classic feat
 ures still decorate the silver dollar.
