Ask Coinage of a Half Nickel

The coinage OF a two and one-half-
cent piece by the United States Govern
meut is urged in a statement given out
in New York by William II Short, o
New York banker. who declares that
the use of such q coin would mean q
saving of s39. 1000, 900 yearly to con
sumers.
"The absence of such coinage" he
says, "has resulted in the universal
custom Of the sellers taking the half
cent whenever transaction does not
result in even money. / suppose 1t
would be safe estimats to say that
each family loses the self ce an
average Of ten times week, resulting
in their paying ss60 a year above the
price Of articles purchased. There are
about 15. 600. 900 families in the United
States. exclusive of the merchants, and
figuring on the basis mentioned, they
are losers yearly from this cause in the
approximate sum OF $50. 900. .000."

at Hazen, she addressed letter to him,
begging him to return to her. So far as
