woman, woman,
Source of all our bliss, !"

Sang Jefferson de Angels, the other
night at the opera, and some mean
man who sat behind me said that wo-
man was also the source of all our
troubles. But I would rather take
Jeff's side of the case because a man
with all those women around him ev-
lery night ought to know. And with
this thought comes the suggestion to
me that if you are possessed of one of
these sources" you ought to do some
thing for her. And here's where tell
you that the best way to show her that
you appreciate the blissfulness that
she surrounds you with, is to bring her
TO my store and let her pick out some-
thing she wants. We have everything
imaginable in the way of fine china,
glassware, ornaments, jardiniers, brio
:a.brac, etc. Christmas is coming and
then's when she likes you the best.
The prices 1 am making will be anoth-
4 r source OF bliss.

WALLS PLAsTERED WITH COINS

Singular oonceit of New Jersey
Woman Numismatist.
From the Philadelphia Record; Miss
Dentz OF Dentzy.lle. N. j.. suburb of
Trenton. has probably the largest col
lection of coins in New Jersey Some
OF them are many hundred years old.
and they represent the eurrencies Of
nearly every country in the world.
Some idea of the size of the collection
may be gathered from the fact that the
ceiling OF Miss Dentz' boudoir is COM
pletely covered with United States
money, while the four walls are hidden
behind coins OF Asiatic, European, Al
rican and South American countries
There is considerable history attached
to this collection. especially to the Eng
lish coins, which were found near
Princeton in a queer-shaped hat by one
OF Miss Dentz' relatives while in search
of minerals. The hat is similar in
shape to those worn by the Hesslan
soldiers during the revolution, and is
still in Miss Dentz' possession. There
are many valuable coins in her col
