The Worlds Oldest Coin.

That money, in the form Of coin,
should be a comparatively recent in
vention, If we may use the word,
seems too odd to be true. But we are.
reminded Of the fact by the news sent
from Turkey in Asia that a German
archaeologist has just obtained the
Oldest coin in existence, which only
dates from the ninth century before
the Christian era.
It was from the mint, II the express
sion may be used of such an early
date, OF an Aramean king of Schamo,.
This oldest known coin Is, we believe.
about twelve centuries older than The
Oldest existing book. But coins, being
made of precious metal, are enormous.
ly durable. Some of the earliest and
best coins of the Mediterranean basin
are those Of the old Greek colony OF
Czyzicus, on the Hellespont, and prob
ably the Oldest existing piece of metal
work Of which the date is known Is
the tripod, made to celebrate the vic
tory Of Plataea by the Greeks over
the Persians. The golden ball which
1t supported Is gone. But the tripof
itself, designed to initiate twisted SER
penis, is still kept in the mosque Of
st. Sophia at Constantinople.

Popular Separate BIouses.

Again and again 1t has been prophe-
sled that the separate blouses must be
put one side, but as yet practical wom-

tween blouses, dressy enough for the
alter or luncheons, but high-necked and
long sleeved, seem to get prettier and
prettler. The loveliest of them all
are made of those exquisite lowered
silks-with shadowy flowers that fade
in out of the background in so artistic
way. Those exquisite soft crepes
with flower prints are charming
draped and trimmed with tiny hand
run tucks, or puffigs, or lace. Soft
drapy silks are very good-bUt so are
stiff silks. and a combination of both.
The soft chiffon failles, in exquisite
ly soft shades Of pink, or blue, or vio-
let. make up into beautiful blouses.
But, besides silk, soft fine wooden
stuffs-mostly white, are being used a
great deal. Albatross, sllk.and-wool
stuffs, soft wool crepes and dozen
others are made up into as attractive
blouses. in their way. as the silks are
in theirs.

Polite Children of East Bolivia.

Capt. Jermann of Rio de Janelro.
who recently returned from journey
into the rubber districts Of East Bo-
livia, almost in the heart of Central
America, visited town in the very
interior, so far from civilization that
1t required horseback ride of three
days to get to it. There he found two
schools for boys and one for the girls
Of the place, but only one teacher,
who was an old half-breed. This old
man was drunk when the traveller ar
rived, and remained drunk for two
days.
But" says Capt. Jermann, "the chill
dren were just as good and well-be-
haved as If they were enjoying the
best educational chances in the world.
They were as polite as the most Gull
tured people in the outside world, and
were eager to show me attentions,
without, however, pressing them upon
me.
"They never entered a house, not
even shop, without knocking at the
door or the side and obtaining permits
sion to come in. After this permission
was given they always took off their
shoes, which they left outside"

Ducks Led by a Pigeon.

One of the strangest sights ever
seen by sportsmen was witnessed the
other day on the duck pass owned by
Uri Lamprey of st. Paul.
Mr.. Lamprey and friend had been
shooting for some time when they
observed flock of ducks coming
along from the north. The ducks were
blue-winged teals and at Their head
was white bird.
That's queer" said Mr.. Lamprey;
an take the white bird and see what
1t is"
Both sportsmen fred, both bringing
down their bird. Upon examination
1t was found that the leader Of the
ducks was a tame white pigeon.

The club, which is of ordinary appear

handle carries a hammer or trigger
mechanism, and when desired the han
die and club may be separated and a
revolver cylinder applied between
them, thus converting the mace into
