Small Coins Newer and Brighter.

"Have you noticed the improved
quality of the coins now In circula-
tion!" asked the trolley car conductor
as he pulled a handful of bright pen
nies, nickels and dimes from his pock-
ct for inspection.
"It's due to an effort on the part of
the government to put better money
into circulation by recalling the worn
and shiny pieces from which the i'm
preston of the die has become effaced.
I've noticed for the past two years .
steady improvement in this respect.
All the banking institutions now
throw aside the coins that how decid.
ed traces of wear, and the treasury
department redeems these with new
ones. In England a soiled bank note
is unknown The paper money is al
ways new and crisp, being recalled
before it becomes worn. It's getting
to be that way in this country with our
small coins" Philadelphia Record.

statement that two OF the people thus

2, The possibility OF remedy and
cure for that dreaded and mysterious
ailment known to science as cata-
lepsy.
3. A removal Of the awful dread OF
being buried alive.
Dr. Keen does not stand sponsor for
all these claims. But he does assert
that life apparently extinct has been
renewed by continuing the hearts
closed pulsation through massage, In
case recently reported the patient
was to all intents and purposes dead.
The heart had ceased to beat, breath
Ing had stopped, and the collapse
from choloroform was apparently com.

the physicians and nurses for five min
utes before an operation was under
taken. Then the surgeon Ia charge

the massage treatment At the end
of Ave minutes, after repeated chatting,
the heart resumed Its beating, and res
piration was restored by artificial
means. In two other recorded cases
the patients were brought back to life
and the operation was entirely sue
cessful.
IL Is related that some OF the great
surgeons OF Europe who have been
working upon this theory have spent
many years in experimenting on dumb
animals. In quite number Of their
cases the hearts Of dogs that have
been frozen for fifty hours after the
supposed death have had their pulsa-
ton restored by massage.
Physicians shake their heads over
the possibility Of the new treatment
being applied to restore those attack
ed by catalepsy. But II II could be
employed in this way II would remove
one OF the awful terrors OF that dis
ease. the fear Of being buried alive.
So great Is this terror that men have
asked that a knife be plunged through
their heart to make death absolutely
certain.

IN A CHICAGO NIGHT SCHOOL

Difficulty Of the LispinG Urchin In Rem
dering Shakespearean Lines.
A certain night school Is in session
three evenings week in a cavernous
building on the river front One
mounts a draughty staircase. gropes
through bleak passages that echo to
the tread and enters a gas-lighted
odorating classroom, where the air Is
filed with q murmur like the sound OF
rain on the roof; 1t is the diligent
scratching Of hundred pens on hun
dred copy books. Boys Of many ma.
tionalities, of many ages, ranging from
IL to 80. and Of many degrees Of grimi-
ness, toll stoically at their copying
The smallest boy" is very small and
particularly grimy. His head droOps
devotedly above the work. and his fin
gers are fairly paralyzed with the rig
idity of his grip on the pen. Truth
cruthed to earth shall rith again." he
whispers to himself, repeating the copy
book text as he laboriously transcribes
it. Nothing has been able to break the
"littlest boy" of nsping. 1t Is the lisp
Of nervous childishness, and in aston
ishing contrast to the astuteness of his
vocabulary on occasion.
Along the walls stretch blackboards,
where dusty professions of struggling
sums and corrugated verbs trail like
caravans across a desert. In one cor
ner the blackboard blossoms into an
oasis, roll of honor in colored chalk,
with the smallest boys" name at .4e
top
When copy books are put away there
is the ordeal of mental arithmetic, and
after that the reading class. Tonight
the selection is Shakspearean, part
of the second act of "As You Like It."
The boys read in turn, up one aisle
and down the next, their earnestness
and the admonitions of the master re-
deeming the performance from ridicu-
lousness, though Orlando's impassion-
ed address is delivered in a Dutch
brogue, and Jaques is variously
Swede, an italian and a Jew. The
Seven Ages" are accomplished in tri-
umph, down to the Justice" full of
wise saws and modern instances" and
now it Ia the smallest boys" turn to
read. Rising, he bawls out the lines
that follow with breathless eagerness
-as one who knows his lesson well:

a Chum OF sir Henry Irving.

When Sir Henry Irving was staying
lately at the Queens Hotel, Manches-
ter, small boy, about 6 years old,
son of William Mollison, a well-known
member of Sir Henry's company.
strayed into his rooms one afternoon.
Invited to make himself at home, and
take some refreshment, he consumed a
pear and a bottle of lemonade with
apparent satisfaction. Then gazing
steadfastly at his host he said:
81 do miss Phil May"
$50 do we ALL" said Sir Henry,
gravely.
"Yes, but l miss him most" pursued
the child. "He was my chum."
"Ah! that makes it very hard" said
Sir Henry.
There was long pause, and then
the little fellow asked very earnestly:
"Will you be my chum nowp So
they swore eternal friendship on the
altar of Phil Mays memory.

Natural Ice Is Passing.

For several years past the business
Of the iceman OF former days has been
decreasing steadily, and at the present
rate ere long he will find his occupa.
ton gone. 1t Is no longer necessary
to wait for cold weather to secure a
supply of the refrigerating product; It
can be produced easily and cheaply in
the warmest weather by chemical pro.
cesses.
In the State of Maine, where in
former years the harvesting Of ice for
market in more southern ATTITUDES was
carried to enormous proportions, the
total quantity cut during last winter,
which embraced perfect conditions for
the securing of large crop, was but
4S5, 900 tons, against 100000 tons gath
cred in the winter Of 1923.
The advantages offered by chemistry
and modern machinery for the pro-
duction of ice and the perfect control
of temperature at whatever degree de-
sired, when and wherever needed, ir-
respective of climatic conditions, rem
ders their mechanical requirements
cheaper than can be obtained from
natural ice when transportation from
remote districts Of storing and the
great wastage OF original bulk through
melting is taken into consideration. In
all manufacturing necessity for cooling
and for maintaining uniform degrees
Of temperature, as well as certainty of
control of such conditions, together
with their greater economy, present
systems of artificial refrigeration are
crowding nature out Of the field of
competition and reducing the latter to
chiefly local value.

Pursuant to call issued by Supt. w
+. Larson, over 125 members of school
boards of the several districts of the
county met in the Training school room
in the library building last Saturday
morning at 10 o'clock. The object of
the meeting was to bring about general
discussion of school matters on the part
Of members of the various district
boards Ii is asserted that the meeting
was the first of the kind ever held in the
state. At all events, it was the first in
the county. Two sessions were held
one in the forenoon and one in the after
noon. The meeting was in charge of
Supt of Schools w f. Larson and Prin.
Christensen of the Training school.
The large attendance from the rural dis
tricts indicated very encouraging
interest in school matters on the part OF
the people in every section of the county
The speakers at the morning session
were Judge Baensch aud Supt. Larson,
while the principal addresses at the
afternoon session We're made by Judge
Chloupek, Atty. l. j Nash and Prin
Fred Christensen. The music wa
furnished by the North Side high school
orchestra
Such meetings afford school officers an
excellent opportunity TO get acquainted
and interchange views. Such gatherings
are calculated TO broaden the views of
rural school authorities and give them a
ketner appreciation of their duties rel
ative to the schools they represent
Broad, intelligent views on the part OF
school authorities is really essential to
the success of the schools. Teachers
alone can not permanently elevate their
schools much above the standard of the
best element in the community where
the schools are located
The meeting above mentioned was a
most successful one. and tho excellent
addresses afforded inspiration to all in
attendance.
