MAXWELL SHOWS WELL

Another clean sweep has been added to the list of Maxwell victories in relia- bility contests by the winning of the 800-mile endurance run held by the Automobile Club of Buffalo. on Sept ember 2, 8, 9 and 10.
 Fifteen cars competed, starting and finishing each days run in Buffalo.
 The Maxwell Model c made perfect road score. and in the technical exam ination only five points were marked against it's record. By this score the Maxwell won it's own price class. $1 1901 to 1,6o0, and easily captured the Laurena Enos trophy. offered for the best score by any car in anyclass.
 The Maxwell, therefore, defeated cars ranging in price as high as S4,00o, re- beating it's performance in the Munssy tour, in which the Maxwell also won it's own class and the sweepstake trophy.

EARLY MONEY.
Ring Currency and the First Gold and
 Silver Coins.

Ring Currency and the First Gold and
 Silver Coins.
 Earliest history refers familiarly to the use of gold and silver as purchasing medium, but the metals were exchanged in tee form of bars or dust for many centuries. Even today the Chinese prefer their gold and silver in bullion form. .Ea
 The credit of making the first gold coins is given to the Lydians by Herodotus, and the first silver coins are supposed to have been minted on the island of Egina, 860 B. c. There are to be found in the various large museums of the world coins of Persia issued $50 B. c. The earliest coins known in Palestine were called Barrie, or kings money (from Darius), and were coined 450 B. c.
 In the year 139 B. c. Antiochus VII. granted the privilege of coin ing money among the Jews to Si- mon Maccabeus, and the various pieces are dated Gin the first Cor second) year of Simon, benefactor of the Jews, high priest"
 The earliest Biblical mention of wealth is that of Abraham when he left Egypt to return to Canaan and the ,000 pieces of silver that Abim- elech gave Abraham for Sarah's use. Abraham bought the cave of Machpelah and weighed to Ephron 400 shekels of silver. Achen stole wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels.
 In the east in all ages jewels have been regarded as a convenient method of transferring and holding wealth. Prior to the first coining Egyptian and perhaps other "mon- ey" was made into rings for the sake of convenience, and the bum dies of money carried by the sons of Jacob when they went into Egypt to buy corn were doubtless strings of gold or silver rings of a fixed weight.
 Fortunately it has been the GUS tom from earliest times to date coins in some manner, and by their aid it has been possible to prove the truth of legends and traditions even after centuries, and the finding of single coin has often served to throw a great light on a dark page of history.-Emmett Campbell Hall in Detroit Free Press.

The Cursa of Red Hair.

Even Titan did not succeed in re moving the curse from red hair, for it is variously accused of causing any thing from temper to freckles. And now comes an English scientist who is trying to blame it for shortness of stature. By a system of statistics all his own he has figured that among boys and girls at Che age of fourteen the shortest invariably have red hair. Among girls those with black and blond hair take first place in height, and among boys the light browns are easy winners. The figures look con- elusive. but those who do not like them may reflect with Mark Twain that all statistics are watered stock.

Take It For What It's Worth.

Pork is not commonly reported to be a hyGienic food. and assuredly it has no aesthetic associations. It is there fore somewhat surprising to hear diet of pork recommended to the beau ty seeker. Such is the latest dictum, however, and in proof of it's wisdom we are asked to note the clear, vel vety skins of the country girls with whom pork is a staple article of diet. Pork is supposed to produce this vel yety effect by supplying oily matter to the skin. It acts as a sort of natural cosmetic and is much less expensive than the creams city women employ to counteract the harshness and dryness of their complexions In the absence of pork bacon is recommended.
