ST. GAUDENS' COINS NOT
CONVENIENT FOR HANDLING

the St Gaudens coins would topple
over.
1t was St Gaudens' idea which
found especial favor with President
Roosevelt, to return to the classical
style of coinage. Ancient coins are
mostly remarkable for strange pro-
jections of the. sculptured form. But
in the ancient world banking and the
handling of immense sums of money
in the manner of to-day were un-
known.
The designs made by ST. Gaudens
have been pronounced extremely beau
tiful. The American Numismatic So
ciety has urgently advocated q more
artistic scheme of coinage than that
which has been in use in the United
States for half a century or more.
st. Gaudens. under the provisions of
the act of congress authorizing the
new coinage. retained the chief gen.
eral characteristics of the old pieces,
but gave them in addition an artistic
realization.

Inhabited regions probably does as

The golden eagle, say the experts, has
been known to attack calves and colts
and to have carried away from one
range in the west in a single year
more than 400 lambs.
The report of the survey divides
the hawk and owl families into four
general species as follows: Species
wholly beneficial; those chiefly bene-
fcial; those in which beneficial and
harmful qualities about balance; HARM
full species. Some of these birds may
be good citizens in one locality and
extremely undesirable citizens" in an
other.

A DEFENSE of hawks and owls is

vey in recent report from that bu-
reau. 1t is declared that both of these
bird families have been condemned by
the farmers of the country without
discrimination because some of their
species are destroyers of valuable
things. Mitigating circumstances are
found for some otherwise harmless
birds because of lack of proper food
in the country where they live.

BILL WATSON WON.
Brockton Grappler Beat a Turk from
 Boston on Friday.

Brockton Bill Watson and Turk from Boston, whose name Harvey Parker couldn't pronounce, wrestled Friday night at Fall River. Dupont was expected to do the turn, but he failed to show up, claiming that he had an injured hand, and the Turk, who is said to be professional strong man and weight litter. was sent on in his place. He didn't know much about the fine points of the game, and the way Watson showed him Brockton wrestling was shame. He was thrown all around the stage, and two falls were obtained by Wat son in nine minutes. The Turk was a cinch.
 Two weeks from Friday night there will be another match at Fall River with Watson and Prokos as the principals. Watson is wrestling in fine style now, and expects to turn the Terrible Greek" without difi- culty. S| -r
 Parker will begin to work out with Watson to see how his injured leg stands the strain. He wants to get back into the game if he can do his old time rapid work.

FROM TIE PEW

"The best forgiveness IS forgetting
says recent writer and that's just
what God does. lie not only forgives
sin but ne forgets that it has been COM
mitied. That truth is hard To believe
since "God is the same yesterday, lo
dav and forever and yet II Dr.
plainly taught in His Word that
one source from which 10 draw lessons
Of absolute verify. With perfect con-
hdence David offered this prayer:
"Remember not the sins Of my
youth, nor my iiansgression. rs.
35-I And in Isaiah, the God Ia whom
David prayed, answered in these
words: ~. even /, am lie that blot
teth out thy transgressions for my own
sake. and will not remember thy sins. '
Isaiah 43-25. And there Is great
comfort in the thought that lie does
this for His own sake, His OWN glory.
And then again through the mouth of
the same prophet He says: 81 have
blotted out as a thick cloud thy trans
gressions. and a. cloud thy sins. ~
Is. 45-22.
And even Weeping Jeremiah is per
mltted to bring to SHINING man this
comforting assurance: 81 will forgive
their iniquity, and will remember
their sin no more. n-Jcr. 3l-3l.
These references might be multiplied
but they are enough to convince even
"doubiing Thomas that God not
only forgives sin but forgets ii. Not
SD with man. He may forgive you if
YOU have done him "A wrong but he
doesn't forget il. And alas, alas, alasi
the sinner never forgets that he has
sinned. Peter remembered his sin and
went out and "wept bitterly, Judas
remembered his and event out and
hanged himself" Remembrance of
unforgiven sin may be "the worm
that dieth not, the fire that is not
quenched. p" VIII the saved IN Hea-
ven remember the sins committed in
the flesh? The comfortable answer
to this question is found in another
truth taught in Gods Word, and this
is that when we see Him we shall he
like Him, and if like Him we may too
forget even our own sins.
