THE FIREPLACE.
One Thing That Helps Most to Make
Home Homely.

One Thing That Helps Most to Make a
Home Homely.
This I say: Go back and pick up lost
good hablts-the omitted amenities OF
life. Especially put back into your
house the fireplace. 1t is the one
thing that helps most to make home
homely. Build 1t big and broad. Let
there be no gimcracks Of fancy wood
work anywhere near 1t. Let 1t be only
brick or stone. Then let the hearth be
broad and wide. Make 1t so large ev-
cry way that you need never fear for a
swapping coal Away with mats, for
they are combustible! But stool
that is another thing. Here you can
forget the stocks and the Office and
the store. Here you can dream Of rest
and peace. Here 1t is possible that
some of you have Tom and Harry and
Bessie about your knees. There Is no
better way to reconstitute the family.
It Is the chief want Of these modern
days.
The world Is never quite SO indie
pendent or we quite so care free with
out fire. There are vastness and lack
Of outline to summer day. We get
our feelings mixed up with the cosmos.
The fireplace naTows our lives some
what, but it completes and unifes
things. We are happy to be just a
part of the little warm home circle.
Did anybody ever commit suicide who
had freplace?-E. P. Powell In Out

COIN NOTICES,
iasorIbtI6Hs That Were a Joy To the
Cynics and Critics.

Cynics ana Critics'
A collection of coin notices gathered
by an Italian student, Amerigo Scar
latti, was published in Minerva, an
Italian periodical. Scarlatti Is on the
opinion that such Inscriptions, though
not intended to be cynical, too orten
admit of such an Interpretation through
the irresistible habit of the public Of
ignoring the intention of the designer
and applying the motto to the coin IT.
self.
Thus when Charles H., king OF the
two sicilies, had engraved on his sill
yer ducat the Latin words "Unus non
Suficit," meaning zone is not enough"
all the world insisted on forgetting
that the king referred to a single scep.
ter and enthusiastically agreed with
him that one ducat wasn't enough for
any one.
On the contrary, storm Of ironical
opposition was aroused when Louis de
Bourbon, king of Etruria, IL the early
part of the last century inscribed "Vi-
deant Pauperes ct Lactentur" on his
coins. The words mean "Let the poor
see and rejoice" and Of course every
one wanted to know why poor man
should rejoice at merely seeing piece
Of money.
On the papal coinage Of 1878 bearing
the arms Of Gregory XIII. are the
words "Et Super Hanc Petram" land
upon this rock. OF course the pope
and the artist who designed the coin
meant the words to refer to the papa
cy, but the evil minded applied them
SO maliciously to the coin itself that
the issue was speedily stopped. A SIM
liar opportunity for evil tongues was
afforded when the Knights of Malta
coined an issue of dollars with the sign
of their order, the Maltese cross, and
their motto, "In Hoe Signo Militamus"
Qn this sign we combat. The ribald
affected to take 1t as a confession that
with. them money was truly the sinew
Of war.
A Venetian Ira dated 1474 has the
somewhat ambiguous motto "In Tibi
Solo Gloria" TO thee alone the glo-
ry). A sequin coined by Cardinal Rez-
gonico In 1744 bears the words "Veni
Lumen Cordium," or "C0me, thou light
Of hearts," Clement XI. issued coin
with an image Of the Madonna, with
the legend "Causa Nostrae Laetitiae"
cause of our joy, and Venetian
piece with an allegorical figure Of JUS
tice, with the words "Nostra In hac
elicitas" (Our happiness in this). All
Of these inscriptions were irrevently
diverted by contemporaries from their
true object to tile money itself.

room those curtains l looked at last.
The dining rooms all right as it is,

"Now, will you listen to that?" ex-
