by the Christian Sunday. Subsequent
comparisons, however, revealed little
difference between any days of the

white flag that announces the time

for the night with a half dozen growly

On the following morning they were

The Public Eye.

In a little more we came to an open
space, very thronged.
"The Public Eye." shouted the
megaphone man of our party.
There were some curious people
within the space, but even more curl
GUS were those just outside.
Of these latter we thought certain
women especially interesting; they
were busily neglecting their families
in order to get into the Public Eye. A
pathos attached to another group of
women who had been in the Public
Eye and could never be happy out of
1t, though they couldn't in the least
tell why
Positively funny were a few men
who kept trying, by a variety of droll
devices, to break into the Public Eye.

Coin Struck During Napoleon ILLS
Reign Now Valuable.

There is singular story in con-
nection with coin OF the third Napo-
leon. While Louis Napoleon was
prince president of France, Just
before he made himself emperor, a
decree was issued ordering five-franc
piece to be coined bearing his
image.
The dies were made, and one coin
was struck off as sample and sent
to the prince president for his ap-
prevail. But some time passed before
he examined it. When at last he gave
1T his attention he was annoyed to find
that he had been representation the
coin with a love lock, or hooked lock
of hair on the temple, which he act
ually did wear at that period, but
which he thought unsuitable to so dig
nified and permanent a representa-
ton of himself as an ef1igy on a
coin.
The prince president sent for the
director of the mint and ordered him
to remove the love lock- Then he
found that his silence with regard to
the piece had been taken for approval,
and that the stamping of the coins had
begun. The work was stopped and
the image deprived Of Its undignified
lock. But the % coins that had al
ready been struck off were not de-
stroyed and are now regarded as of
great value.

itor makes me look about 70 years
old. l am not TO- but am more than
half that age, and look every day
OF my actual years. But don't feel
that old. Gay and giddy exploits still
attract me- Pleasures, diversions, flirt-
ations that for young girl are per-
fectly legitimate, appeal to me, also,
yet if l should rush into those gay
cites as girl does my behavior
would be characterized as foolishness.
Every day l hear the actions of wom-
en- younger looking than myself so de-
scribed.
Just look at that old thing, the
critics say. Doesn't she act idiotic?'
Then l come home and study this
photograph. That destroys whatever
inclination l may have had to behave
like a 16-yearold. l never write a
letter to a man friend-I never make
an engagement without keeping an eye
