Her majesty, Queen Victoria. who is
the dowdiest royal parsonage In Eu-
rope, has in her possession the most
expensive bonnet In the world, says
the Boston Globe. The natives OF the
Navigator islands were several years
ago anxious to make the queen pres
ent. There was formed a committee,
which debated long and patiently what
would be most appropriate. Jewels
were out Of the question. 1t would
cost a fortune to give one of the rich
est sovereigns in the world jewel that
she would appreciate. Even the most
gorgeous cloths were not advisable. In
dia had excslled them In weaving. The
gift should be suggestive Of their part
of the world and made by their people.
But what?-that was the question.
Their women were skilled at plating
grass and making it into everything
from furniture, mating and mural dec
orations to gowns and hats. but this
would not be valuable enough. Aside
from the thoughtfulness of the gift It
must have some intrinsic worth. The
committee disagreed. One gentleman
resigned in despair. The new mem
Der injected some ginger into the crowd
and revived their tagging spirits. The
new member said emphatically that
even q queen had vanity enough to
want to possess the most expensive
bonnet IN the world. One OF their own
tortoise shells should be made into a
bonnet. 1t should be carved by their
own people and while K would not cost
them very dearly Victoria would fnd 1t
quite expensive If she went shopping
for it in Bond street. An elaborate
bonnet was made Of q whole shell. The
workmanship was exquisite. Never
was tortoise shell more artistically
carved. The shape is like that OF the
salvation army lasses. In due time
the queen received the gift and wrote
the committee note Of thanks. The
queen found the material as we'll as the
shape little impracticable a. far as
everyday wear goes. so she sent 1t to
the British museum. But the commit
tee. which feels that load is off its
mind, draws mental pictures of Queen
Victoria driving down ''the lady's
mile" and nodding 10 her faithful sub
jects and wearing the gift that caused
SO many wrinkles in the gray matter
OF its brain.

History Of English Coins.

Henry III, issued the first current
gold coin in England in 1247. 1t was
Of pure gold, passing for 20 pence,
and was called gold penny. The
next current gold coin issued-the
fiorin-was issued by Edward III, in
1874. Guineas were issued by Charles
ii, in 1868, and continued to be coined
until 1917, when they were superseded
by sovereigns. The gold sovereign
was first coined by Henry VII.
Though the coming of money be a
special prerogative to the crown, yet
the ancient saxon princes communi-
Gated 1t to their subjects, inasmuch
that in every good town there was at
least one mint; but at London there
were eight; at Canterbury, four for the
King, two for the archbishop; one for
the Abbot at Winchester, six at Roch-
ester, two at Hastings.

kitchen fire and prepare the morning
meal.
But he Is not the man to finch In
the face of difficulties. With the aid
of kerosene, kindling and coal he soon
had the top of the stove a sparkling
red. He didn't recall whether coffee
should be boiled or brewed, but he set
it on and let it take its course, and put
in pinch of baking powder, just be-
cause he had inferred from glancing
over the advertising columns of news
papers that it must be used In every
thing.
Then 1t came to him that he had
heard somewhere and at some time
that hamburger steak was one Of the

East of the Rocky Mountains there
are 1a2, 900 square miles of coal lands'
and the yearly output is nearly ZOO

great coal fields of the world as fol-
lows: China, 100000; United States,

Wales, 24,OOO; Russia, 10000, and the
united Kingdom 1880 square miles.
There are many deposits in other coun-
tries, but their extent is inconsider-
able. England's coal area is small;
still she has for years produced more
than any other country.
"Now the United States Is ahead.
English coal veins are thin; one, only
fourteen inches wide, has been worked
200 feet down. On the other hand,
there are veins in the Pennsylvania
anthracite region sixty feet thick, and,
in the bituminous regions, eighteen
feet thick. Our Appalachian coal fields
are the largest known and alone could
supply the whole world for centuries
to come. AT the present rate of pro-
duction it is estimated that our coal
fields will be exhausted in GIG years,
while those of England will last but
