tain large city recently brought about
the removal of an expert from the
position he had long and efficiently
held. So far the spoilsmen had their
will; but at last accounts the new
boss had not been able to find in his
own faction a man who dared to take
the place. If such an incident ended
by leaving an important bureau with

bad enough; but there is always the
greater danger that an incompetent

the technical service of the city will

The st. Louis exposition people want
a coin commemorative of their EXPOSE
tion in 1908, and the
managers have ad-
oo"' vanced an idea that
is novel and doubtless would prove
profitable. The small gold dollars
which were coined some years ago by
the government have almost entirely
disappeared, or have gone to premi-
um. It is proposed that the govern
ment shall issue specified number of
these coins with a design suitable to
the Louisiana purchase celebra ton on
their face. Their par value will be
but dollar. The entire issue is to be
taken by the fair corporation at par.
1t is to furnish the necessary metal for
the making of the coin and to reim-
burse the government for the expense
involved in their production. The ex-
position people will then attempt to
dispose of the coins at a premium.
Those who have suggested the plan
believe that two dollars can be realized
for each of the little gold dollars. In
addition to this the government will
probably set up big coming press and
will turn out medals Of an accepted de-
sign on the grounds of the exposition
company. These will also be sold at
profit. Well, why not? These large
expositions are dependent largely up
on government aid to be successful,
and even then they some times fail, not
only the Pan-American affair. But as
long as they must be supported, any
scheme which will afford a chance to
collect a few extra dollars from the
public by government assistance is
commendable. Then again, the issu-
ing of new and novel money affords
pleasure to the collectors of coins, says
the Duluth Herald. A Columbian half
dollar is rarity to-day, and a great
many of them are in the hands of col
lectors. By all means let the treasury
coin few dollars for the ST. Louis ex-
position. No one need pay premium
for them unless he wants them, and
they will always be worth their face
value.

Since then I have received newspaper
clippings referring to this report from
not only the United States, but from
England, France, Germany, Switzer-
land and Austria. In the above-men-
toned report I gave the addresses of
parties here likely to be interested in
buying refrigerators, and to-day the
desks of most of them are covered with
refrigerator catalogues in various Ian

Viewed as an economic question, the
should not disturb
us more than other
Abandone" shifting of popula-
ton. Such is the position taken by
Liberty H. Bailey in an article recent
ly contributed to Country Life In
America. In the present day, most OF
the lands that are now abandoned
would not have been settled. They
would remain in timber; and now, by
the inexora BILE power of economic
forces, they are returning into forest.
The first flush of settlement OF the
west has passed. Manufacturing in
dustries have attained stable condi-
tions. People are looking again to the
country. The better farms are being
farmed. On the hills of western Mas
sachusetts found a cowpuncher from
Oklahoma settling on an abandoned
farm, to make his living by farming
Farmers are buying up adjacent lands
and extending their business. Near
the railroads city people are building
cottages and retreats on the sites OF
old farms, to find respite and peace.
The remoter places are passing back
into forests, and numbering is again an
industry in old New England. Where
once were "mowings" and "plowings"
are now wild and free stretches OF
woodland. Dilapidated stone walls
ramble through the woods and are
heaved by the roots of great trees.
Here and there is the ruin of founda
ton, with trees growing inside, and the
tiger lilies still persisting at the bor-
der. Now and then only clump of
tansy marks spot where people lived.
Roads that once were free from wall
wagon tracks, where Strawberries
ripen in June, and goldenrods bloom
in September. There are abandoned
roads, silent avenues of a rural life
that has sunken into the past. There
are schoolhouses on these old high.
ways where the wild growth is stealing
into the Fairgrounds. There are
schoolhouses where no children go to
school. One can follow these narrow
roads over the hills until he loses all
contact with human effort, and is over
come with the feeling that he is far
and far away.

"A current meu1cdl journal says II
has been proved that gout and genius
p.,.. are closely allied"
and that ''gout has
peculiar affinity
with those of that abnormal brain de-
velopment known as genius" In the
genera. mind genius has always been
associated with long hair, low diet and
residence in an attic, but this belief,
like so many others, is now rudely
shattered by the researches of mod
ern science. It was some time since
shown that musical genius is prone to
associate itself with generous alb
normal girth and an unquenchable
thirst, but it somewhat startles the i'm
agination to picture the literary genius
as an oyerfed gourmand, the poet as a
ruddy-faced gentleman of bibulous
tendencies and the artist as corpulent
individual whose divine inspiration is
born of twinges of great pain in his
great toe. Yet there are pleasant re-
fections on this discovery by science
that an excess of uric acid in the system
is the basis of genius. 1t puts genius
within every mans reach. Let him
only abstain from exercise, indulge
freely in wine, pastry and plum pud-
ding. and so fill his system with gout-
and genius. The dearth of real genius
In the past has been due apparently to
the erroneous idea that plain living is
the parent of high thinking. Now that
science has pointed out the way, we
may expect such an enormous develop
ment of genius as will make this CEN
tury memorable through all the ages
Tor its traditional splendor.
