 This is statistical age. Everythins nowadays must he reduced Co the av craze ot tahulated figures.
 Following this disposition. an inauir ing Euslishman with genius for hg ures has been devoting himself te the statistics of smiles. Naturally he fiuds the smiles ot women the more Inter esting study.
 On an averags he says, woman's mouth Is stretched half inch each time she smiles He allows her thirty six smiles a day--a fair ascrage-ani. according to this computation. tho tem- perary extensions ef her lips amount 10 the total of. eighteen inches.
 Very good indeed,
 Pursuing these statistics. one can easily figure that ln an entire year the average womaas face would he wreathed and twisted Into more than iSa yards of sunny. winseme smiles, And that Is going some.
 This presumably accurate estimate. however. 1t must he remembered. takes no account Of variations. You see. there are some women who do not smile more than the sixteenth part os an inch at one attempt And some of them do not make the attempt more than thirty-six times month Their smiles are stingy and therefore difficult to measure. Besides. they are the smiles that come off.
 Other gracious ones smile easily and often-all over their fscea. Most any thing good will set their benny lips to stretching and their dimples to dancing accompaniment to laughing eyes. Your English expert cannot measure the ag- gregate length of their smiles, Not on your life. That sort of smiles stretch leagues of happy laughter.
 And there are some men also who can do a good job as smiling The con. vulsien of mlrth starts somewhere down in the region of the dlaphram. creeps upward until f spreads all over the Ialis eaaHteaance. Such smiles ale They need no ealogy.

 There were gray soldiers of many battles yes who fought the long fight against the blue soldiers in the valley of Virginia. and after the war was over some of them would not sur render-no; but they marched here and stayed . long time and kept their last flag, and so the place was called the Port of Missing Men.

PAPAL LORE IN COIN
SERIES THAT EXTENDS OVER A
THOUSAND YEARS.
Adrian l. the First Head Of Church
TO Circulate currsney--Lso XIII.
Was the Last-Rars Types
Are illustrated.

Not the least Interesting OF the
pope's jubilee gifts was the unique
gold coin OF Pope Innocent TX, which.
recently exhumed at Acqui, Italy was
contended for by coin collectors. King
Victor Emmanuel being an unsuccess-
full competitor.
| This coin, the only one In existence
Of the reign Of Innocent TX, was need
ed to make the Vatican collection Of
papal coins complete.
The papal coins exhibit the portraits
OF many of the popes and their coats
Of arms. and furnish metallic history
Of the coinage of the church from the
first issues in the latter part Of the
eighth century down to 1870, when the
papal states we're annexed to Italy
and the papal mint ceased operations.
The papal series Of coins Is one Of
the very longest. covering 1,136 years.
The first pope to issue coins was Ad.
rian !. The coins of Europe were then
largely In imitation Of those Of the
Byzantine empire. whose gold byzanSs
were generally used throughout the
continent, and the coin Of Pope Ad.
rian was fair example Of the coinage
of the times. It showed full face
portrait, presumably of st. Peter, on
the diverse, surrounded by the inscrip
ton "Hadrianus p. p" and the cross
on the reverse, very much after the
style of the Byzantine pieces.
Many Of the early issues Of the
popes show the name Of the reignine
|. pope and a representation Of either
st. Peter or st. Paul. Perhaps no Sc
ries Of coins shows q greater variety
of design or more skillful execution
! The church. always patron Of tht
arts. employed the foremost artists
of the time, and some of the coini
are from the hands OF such men al
/ Cellini and Francia.
A gold scudo of julius H., the de
sign Of which is credited to Frapcia
] shows finely engraved portrait OF tn
! pope, with the inscription: Julius
4 Pontifex Maximus.' A coin Of Alex
4 ander VII. attributed to Paolo. show
on the reverse the crossed keys an,
crown, perhaps one Of the first of tn
4 papal coins to bear this device.
! The coins of the popes were struc
J in many places. including Rome, BE
} logna. Avignon, Perugia, Terni. Sa
\ Severino and Gaeta. One Of the intel
4 esting pieces of the Roman mint wa
silver ducat Of Clement VII. Thi
piece. irregular in shape, was struc
= in 1927, when Rome was in a state {
siege. On the diverse are shown tn
arms and title of Pope Clement, wit
the word "Ducato" inclosed by
. wreath ON the reverse. To this sam
pope il credited a jubilee five seoul
piece in gold. strucR in 1926. It is M
unlikely that the latter piece was el
graved by Cellini.
