 A. Illusion and delusion have been' sagely delimited in rhetoric by tho consent and accord of medico-legalI ! authorities. According to their clas- [ sification the term should be optical illusion" for it arises in sense per- ceptlon and does not amount to 60 fixed and inner mental divergence from ascertainable fact as to consti- tute true delusion. A mirage is m illusion; the creepy things seen h, ] delirium are delusion.

 G. F.-Why is not the motto "In God We Trust' not on the ten dollar piece of 1S44?
 A. The introduction of religious motto for coinage was suggested sev- eral times. but the suggestion that was finally adopted came from a Maryland farmer whose name is not given in history. In 1861, when Sal mon P. Chase was secretary of the treasury, he received q letter fr0m this farmer, suggesting that, as we claim ed to be Christian people, we should indicate our profession on our coins. The letter was referred to James Pollock, then director of the mint. who discussed the question in his report. Congress paid no attention to the suggestion, however. and the next year he again referred to it in his report. A two-cent bronze piece was authorized by congress in 1SG2, and upon it wns first stamped Tn God We Trust" By an act of con gress March 3, 1865 authority was given to place the motto on all coins issued after that date
