How many collectors of coins know
anything about the curious halfpence
issued centuries ago by English au-
Observation-Disclosures in the truest sense
of the word, since they We're nothing
more than minted pennies cut directly
in half? Specimens of these coins have
been discovered frequently among the
buried treasures which from time to
time have been unearthed in Great
Britain. In Lancashire in 1910 We're
found rare lot of coins, among which
were several pennies of the time of
Alfred and Edward divided in this
way.
Similarly divided pence of the time
of Edward the Confessor have been
found. and in speaking of the discov-
cry in 1888 of number of these curl
Gus halfpence of the time of William
the Conqueror an unquestioned au-
thority states that they We're probably
issued from the mints in that form,
since the whole collection had evident
ly been in circulation.
In the British museum in London are
specimens of these divided coins issued
under various monarchs from Alfred
to Henry Ill. An eminent archalogist
accounts for the divided coins by say
ing that this doubtless arose from the
scarcity of small change, which was in
part remedied under the reign of Ed
ward 1. by the coinage Of halfpence
and farthings.

New York's New Liquor Law.

The liquor tax law. passed three
weeks ago by the Legislature OF New
York, advanced the tax on the sale of
liquors fifty per cent. The new law
takes effect on May /, and it is antlcl-
pated will put many saloonkeepers out
of business. AS result of the passage
OF the law, the liquor men have sworn
vengeance on the Governor and on the
Mayor of New York City. AS for the
upstate farmers, the brewers and sa-
loonkeepers will use none Of their prod
ucts-cheese or hops-and will make
the consumer pay the increased tax
necessary to permit them to remain III
business. The free-lunch institution
will soon be relic of the past, and the
speak easy traffic will be a fact OF the
near future. This summer will see not
a collar but "cuff'' on Coney Island
beer glasses, and the ''growler'' will be
diminished to microscopic dimensions.
An idea of the proportionate sum the
increased tax will bring in may be
gathered from the facts that the coun-
frys per capita expenditure for stimu-
iants in 1902 was $17.33 for 79,OO0, 600
inhabitants; the cost at retail OF all
alcoholic drinks was 81, 100, 900, 900; the
use of alcoholic beverages per capita
has doubled in twenty years, and New
York with her thirsty souls in 10000
people keeps up her end with unfalllng
regularity.-Collier's Weekly.

YES, This is the substance of what she


"About six years ago I contracted cold
which failed to cure and it ended in consumD-
tion. From bad l went to worse. When you
saw me last December had reached the point
where the physicians said l could not possibly
recover. I had tried everything suggested for
it, but without success. AS you know l was
living skeleton, co; lII't eat or sleep, and had
no strength for anything. Shortly after that
decided to give Blood Wine a try. The first
bottle didn't seem to make much of change,
but stuck to it because l knew consumptio i
was a stubborn disease, and, too, because had
lately heard of eyeral people who had been
cured with it. After the second bottle l COM
menced to gain. This continued right along,
and when finished my sixth started to wo' X
again. still continued the medicine however,
say was entirely well. Look at me now! Do
look as If had any consumption! L am in
perfect health, ana it is all due solely to Blood
Wine.' 1t certainly has no equal, and L hope
that my endorsement can be used In some way
so as to influence other poor sufferers to try it.
would not think Of being without Blood Wine
in the house"
If any one will stop and think minute,
and ascertain how "Blood Wine' works,
he will readily see why it cures disease.
Consumption is produced by a little germ
not one but millions. When the lungs
are weak they swarm into them, and
gnaw down the paper-like walls. This
decomposition of the lungs is consump-
ton. These germs only thrive where
there is weakness. The person never lived
who contracted consumption with pair
of strong, healthy lungs. 'Blood Wine'
prevents consumption by keeping the
lungs healthy. 1t cures consumption by
absorbing the germs and passing them

It's pitiful sight to look upon per-
son who is wasted to a mere shadow
with disease. So completely in the grasp
of the little death-dealing germs that her
every action, her voice, her stare, her
tread, all tell too plainly that the de-
mons are soon to have her life. Have
you not seen such a person, and felt a
lump rise in yonr throat as you tried to
offer her some cheering word, some sug-
gestion of comfort? If after seeing such
person, and having the impression left
indelible on your mind, so that you would
remember her for days and weeks, you
should suddenly run across the same per-
son few months afterward, and behold
in her quite a different person, this
time instead of hollow-chested, sunken-
checked, pale, stopped woman, with a
deep cough, which raised blood and
mucus, you should see bright-eyed
woman, straight, erect, tinge of color
in her cheek, her face full and round, her
figure plump and robust, her voice soft
and sweet, with no cough, her suffer
ings all gone, her disease entirely over
come and almost forgotten-what would
YOU think? Would you not ask quickly,
s'Why! What has wrought this mira
cle?'' Now that is the exact experience
that I passed through with Miss Nettie
Clark, of 9 Hanson Street, Boston. Miss
Clark had consumption, and she had 1t
badly So badly in fact that she was
given up to die. One day met her and
never beheld such change in person
in my life. 1 could hardly believe my

WHY Women Are Afraid Of Mice.

In all ages women were supposed to
be more prone to superstition than
men, and who knows but that the
dread of u woman en- the appearance
of rat Or mouse may not be due, in
part at least, to an ancient superstition
which has Travelled down the ages
from the time when our remote fore.
fathers believed that rats and mice
were the souls of the departed? Nu-
merous are the stories which made the
ancients believe that souls were rats
md mice, and some of these stories are
very curious.
"In Thuringia, at Saalfeld." says
Barring Gould, "a servant girl fell
asleep while her companions were
shelling nuts. They observed a little
red mouse creep from her mouth and
run out Of the window. One Of the fel.
lows present shook the sleeper, but
could not wake her, so he moved her
to another place. Presently the mouse
ran back to the former place and dash.
ed about seeking the girl. Not finding
her, it vanished. At the same moment
the girl died."
