Three Hundred Dollars For a Cent.

You have all heard about the valuable
"dollar of 1904" of which there are less
than dozen in existence and for which
the coin collectors will gladly give 1000
common every day dollarsf Well, the 1904
dollar is tame coin when compared with
q Washington cent" which was auotioned
off by the New York World company years
ago. At that time they were trying to
complete the Bartholdi statue fund.- and
The World hit upon the plan of auctioning
one of the rare Washington cents in the
interest of that laudable enterprise After
several bids had been telegraphed to The
World the contest narrowed down to a
Mr.. q. V. Bemis of Chicago, Mr.. A. J.
Packard of Buffalo and lady whose
name was not made epublic Bemis finally
telegraphed bid of $780, and Packard
upon being SO informed, raised the bid tc
$127 1.-THE lady in the case" raised the
Packard bid to $3.50. Bemis was informed
concerning the amount of the last offel
made, but failed to receive the telegram
The cent was accordingly sold to "tht
lady" for $3.50.
Being very anxious to get possession O
the coin at any price, and not knowing
that the relic had bean "knocked down,
MIR. Bemis telegraphed The World com
pany to figure up what was still necessar.
to complete the S100, 0D0 fund that was be
ing raised, and TO makesight draft on hin
for the balance. At that time Mr.. Bemi
did not know but that he was offering
81, 900 OF even 50, 900 or more for that sin
gle cent piece. 1t turned out however
that the "amount necessary" would hav
been only 1924 so, which is probably tn
highest price ever offered for q copper coir
At similar ratio the 1904 or any othe
dollar would bring considerably more tina
$50, 000.-St. Louis Republic.

Garner on Monkey Talk.

Professor Garner thus describes the re.
suits of his recent explorations in Africa:
"I did not make any new experiments In
studying the language of the apes on my
last trip. I did, however, confirm many
of my former discoveries. l left Chicago
July 90 of last year as the representative
Of the Chicago African fund, an institu'
ton for scientific research IN Africa, ip'
corporated under the lays Of Illinois and
having capital Of e80, 900. The study OF
the language Of apes was merely an Incl
dental feature of this trip. 1t had other
objects, of which I am not now at liberty
to speak, and they will not be made public

language Of apes may be represented l,

gists will, in my opinion, be greatly inter
ested in it..
Asked to indicate what these symbol
were like, Professor Garner said he ha
forgotten them and did not have his note
handy When it was suggested that a
imitation of the apes speech would be IN

Not In Harmonys

"In house furnishing" says an expert,
sit is impossible to exercise too much care
in the admiXture of style An uncle OF
mino became rich and spent an immense
amount of money in furnishing his draw
ing room in pure Louis XIV style. Every
thing was costly and accurate. He spent
IS months on the task. When it was fin
ished, he asked a friend, a great art critic,
to dinner, and afterward took him up
stairs and showed him the room, his tri-
umph. The critic examined everything
carefully and at last gave a sigh and said;
Everything, my dear sir, in this room
is genuine, perfect and harmonious, save
one.'
'' What is that?' said my uncle.
"The critic took him by the hand and
led him to O large mirror. He looked in
and the reflection showed a short, stout
bald man in the orthodox clawhammel
coat, boiled rag shirt and black trousers
of mems evening dress.
The one discordant, irreconcilablt
thing-tho one utterly inharmonious-il
yourself. Are you Louis XIV In style?'
my uncle looked in the mirror for {
moment, then groaned and walked
straight out of the room. Since that day
no one can induce the poor man toput hi
foot in the drawing room, and the rest o
the house Is furnished in the most hetero
geneous manner conceivable. ."-LondoI

Travellers in Spain and in several other
parts of Europe are invariably struck with
the simplicity of the diet Of the poorer ma
tives. The quantity and apparent nutri-
tive quality of the food found necessary to
sustain the Spanish day laborer, for in
stance, seems ludiorously disproportionats
to what his English brother demands.
A pound of beef, potatoes, bread and
butter and cheese are ordinarily the dinner
Of the Yorkshire rustic.
In Spain a member of the saline class
contents himself with couple of onions
plus crust of bread-when he can got it.
1t is now known, in explanation of this
circumstance, that onions possess more
nourishment than any other vegetable.
The standard living in Scotland has
greatly improved during the last SO years,
but even II highlander, with few raw
onions in his pocket and crust of bread
or bit of oatcake, can work or travel to
an almost Incredible extent for two OF
three days together.
In France soup made from onions is
now universally in use after all violent ex
ertions, and during the Franco-P Prussiar
war was always on the bill Of rations pre-
pared by the commissariat after battle

We fear the house to house collection
scheme recommended by Postmaster Gen.
erai Wanafnaker and recently Endorsed by
Postmaster General Wilson will make

has to deliver may bring him over only q
portion Of his route on O trip that Is light

the above idea in practice, be will be sup
posed or compelled to cover bis entire dis
trict looking for mail that may not be
found. On the other hand, If he goes only
where the letters he has to deliver bring
him, some people who have been expecting
him will be disappointed. Too much reli-
ance will be placed on the regularity Of
the carriers visits, and mail for collection
will often remain In the house box for
hours. We shall be interested in the eg-
perimental tests to be given the system.
House letter boxes are all right, but house
to house collections we fear will not work
satisfactorily unless In rare instances.
Our understanding Is that the department
desires letter carriers to say good word
for the scheme whenever possible, but we
have been reliably Informed that in talk'
ing on the subject to patron on theii
routes carriers should pause just long
enough to hurriedly say: "It's q good
thing Put in box," and then move

rirst found in Kentucky, but this Is not
so. Blue grass Is a native Of the Wabash
valley, in Indiana. IL was found by Will
liam Henry Harrison's troops during that
solemn march 70 TippecanOe in 1911.
Harrison gathered a small army at Ohio
Falls and started north. At Vincennes
the gallant heroes realized that they could
not go 200 miles up the Wabash without
feed for their horses General Harrison
had two cribs of corn at Terro Haute and
persuaded the men to 60 on. As they
camo on with hungry horses and scant feed
they found tho ground covered with blue
grass. Six miles west of Newport, on the
| Collett farm, was found a bOuntiful supply
of blue grass. Some places in tho bottom
it was growing throe feet high, and such
feed had never been heard Of by the Ken
lucky soldiers.
| "At State Line City more blue grass was
found, and from there to Tippecanoe the
whole line OF march was covered with blue
grass. Tho seed was carried back TO Ken
lucky and sown there, but they could not
mako it thrive alone In the warm soil, and
il had to be soWn with oats and rye. Mr..
Sandusky, tho father of the present family
of that name, told me in an early day that
no blue grass grew in kentucky until afteI
it was imported from Indiana. Tom
Downing of Terre Haute was an ardent
admirer of Henry Clay and once went tc
visit him at his home near Ashland, KY
After seeing the fine farm we'll set in blue
