tanned. The coins are passed into cir
culation at their face value. Coins
also have been stripped, it Is sus-
pected, by using them for short inter
walls in electroplating tanks.
Many coins that have been offered
for deposit at banks recently have the
designs brought out more sharply than
is natural. 1t is supposed that these
coins have been stripped and were
left in the acid bath too long. But
even in these coins the unframed eye
would see no sign of mutilation. One
of the largest electroplaters said that
;strippers could take as much as a
pennyweight of gold, worth more than
dollar, from a $50 gold piece with
out making any easily perceptible
change. There is no risk of loss in
damaging gold coins, because if the
the surface the entire coin may be
amount equal to the value of the
coin.
A special difficulty in getting evi-
dence against the stripper is that
even if he be caught with the coins
in solution nothing is proved, as he
can say that he intends to use the
coins, instead of bullion, for plating,
and will not try to pass them as
money. There is no law against dis
solving or melting coins, provided they
are destroyed as currency, and many
Jewellers fuse gold coins instead of 60
ing to the trouble of getting bullion
for the purpose. None of the estab-
lished electroplaters is suspected of
being engaged in the illegitimate prac-
tice. 1t is supposed that temporary
plants are put up by strfppers in Sc
| cluded lofts of factory buildings, as
| little equipment is required.
The fad for Lincoln pennies in Jew
elry received attention because a
gold plated penny might be mistaken
for five-dollar gold piece. It was re-
called that when the five-cent nickels
were first used they did not have the
word cent" on them. Many such
coins were plated with gold and
passed on ignorant immigrants as
five-doliar gold pieces.
The secret service men who in.
quired here as to the use of the
gold plated pennies made no objection
to such plating. jewelers. have made
inquiries of the authorities here and
in Washington, and have been in
formed that the law as to mutilation
of coins applies only to gold and sill
yer coins. Besides, pennies are made
more valuable by gold plating.
In certain western cities, it is re-
ported, the federal authorities have
prohibited manufacturers of jewelry
from plating Lincoln pennies with
gold. That is held to account for an
Increased demand on the manufacture
ers here who make the pennies into
scarf pins, brooches and other arti-
cles.

ENCOURAGING SIGNS OF LIFE
Liberal Contribution in United
States and Canada for Work
of the Foreign Missions.

In spite of the financial depression
the offerings of the United States and
Canada for foreign missions increased
last year $500, 900. The increase of in
come from the foreign field was even
more remarkable, being $1,36O,OOO.
The total gifts on the foreign field
was $4,844,00O, and this amount was
4S per cent. of the total amount con-
tributed for foreign missions by the
Protestant churches of North America.
The increase of native converts last
year was 64,674, or over $50 a day.
The cumulative effects of the foreign
mission enterprise is shown by the
fact that it took 100 years to gain the
first million converts. The second
million were secured in 12 years, and
they. are now being added at the rate
of million in six years. The percent
age of the increase of the church
membership of America was one and

Secret Service Men Hunt De-
facerS of Gold Pieces.
Acids Used to Remove Small Quart'.
ties Of Metal from Coins Probe
for the Lincoln Penny
JeweIry Fad.

New York.-Federal secret service
agents under orders from Chief John E.
Wilkie, have been making a canvass
of jewelers. and electroplating shops
in the Maiden lane district in an effort
to run down persons suspected of
stripping coins-that is, removing
small quantities of gold or silver from
the surfaces of coins by chemical
process. Inquiries also were made as
to several new kinds of coin jewelry,
including articles made from Lincoln
pennies.
The inquiry as to coin stripping was
started after many circulating coins,
including $40 gold pieces, were found
to be short of the prescribed weight.
The loss seemed to be more than is
usual when coins are worn off from
frequent handling. They are suspi-
cious that coins have been reduced
in weight by the stripping process. in
which they are dipped for an hour or
two in aqua regia, mixture of nitric
and hydrochloric acids, into which an
electric current is turned. When the
electric power and the strength of the
acids are fixed in the proper relation
to the weight OF the coins treated, it
is believed, the metal is "sweated" off
the surface of the coins so smoothly
that they are not changed in appear

SCRATCHED so SHE cOUL[

Il write to tell you how thankful /
am for the wonderful Cuticura Rem
edies. Ny little niece had eczema for
five years and when her mother died
l took care of the child. 1t was all
over her face and body, also on her
head. She scratched so that she could
not sleep nights. I used Cuticura
Soap to wash her with and then ap-
piled Cuticura Ointment. I did not
use quite half the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment, together with Cuticura Re
solvent, when you could see a change
and they cured her nicely. Now she
is eleven years old and has never been
bothered with eczema since. My
friends think it is just great the way
the baby was cured by Cuticura. l
send you a picture taken when she was
about 18 months old.

when two years old. She was covered
with big sores and her mother had all
