Coinage.

In the fifteenth century a skilled
c%oiner, of whom there were but few,
might be able to turn out by hand
fifty or sixty coins a day, a result to-
tally inadequate to cope with the vast
quantity of treasure. chiefly silver.
that shortly began to arrive from
America. To multiply coiners was to
multiply forgers, and thus the coming
machine became a necessity Of state.
A Eliminating mill and screw coming
press was invented in Italy, 1547;
Spain, 1913; France, 1868; England,
1861, reign OF Elizabeth. After sew
aral trials and abandonments the mill
and press were established perma-
nently under Charles II, whose golden
guineas, struck In 1862. were the first
regular issues of machine coins made
north of the channel.

FIND TIME FOR KINDNESSES
Who Looked After Their
Passengers.

Once l was down in Louisiana" a
Traveller began. ION a little railroad
that run from Franklin to Weeks
Island. It took five hours to go 20
miles. The most amazing thing to me
was that the conductors stopped the
train anywhere he was asked to, and
II there were no one to meet a woman
passenger with innumerable bags and
the inevitable baby, he helped her
across a plowed field or sent a brake
man to carry her traps TO her own
gate and the train waited until he
came back"
Nothing surprising about that" re-
turned a born New Yorker. The
Madison avenue cars stop every day
for reasons quite remote from a regu-
lar schedule. ! was on a car this after
Dol and a little boy dropped his
mothers umbrella out of the window.
The conductor stopped the car and
ran back a block and a half, got the
umbrella. delivered II to the woman
and incidentally advised her not to let
her son have 1t again.

LITTLE CHANGE IN MANKIND

Though II Is conceivable that man.
kind may have spread from a common
center over the entire earth In a few

pointed out hat the discoveries of the
last so years clearly indicate that the
dispersion and separation into widely
separated races has not been a rapid
process

Mesico's Salt PRODUCING Lake.

Though Mexico offers many wonders
for the inspection of the traveller none
is more interesting or peculiar than
the salt-producing lake neal Salinas
station, on the Tampico division of the
Mexican Central railway, ~ miles west
of San Luis Potosi. Il may well be
termed a two-story lake, for nt times
there is a lake of fresh water over
lying the salt lake. A water-tight
roof OF green mud separates the fresh
from the salt water. For a large
part of the year there IL no fresh
water lake there. The sun licks Il up
soon after the rainy season Is over.
The salt secured from this lake goes
all over Mexico. The lake has been
worked about sixty-five years. The
whole town OF 5000 people makes It's
living from the salt. The property
is owned by a family or estate. but
1t Is said that not one of the owners
has lived there for years.

THE FOLLY OF pIscoNTEMT

This Little Fable Shows, Are
Things Of Moment.

A fashionable woman. coming from

midnight. Machines, like terrible ami
mails. were b%urrowing into the earth.
Steam was Kissing. as u from the
mouths OF a million %serpents. Rocks
flew In every direction. Torchlights
danced. There was the thunder OF la
Dor. The night shift was In full

And the woman. glancing from the
window at n certain workman. for an
instant thought:
How ! wish ! had that brawny In.

! envy him his power. his physical
perfection. the VOL der of his man

AT that moment the laborer paused
long enough by the deep chasm where
his engine rocked. To glance INTO the
motor as II sped by him. And he
thought:
"Oh. to be like her, To know leis-
sure and wealth aud rest, To be free

INCREASES THE TABLE ROOM

the table by running strong screws
through upper sides of the boxes and

that have contained a dozen bottles of
wines or spirits will be found very
suitable for this purpose but, of
course, larger boxes can be used If
preferred, and when the cloth is upon
the table they will be hidden from
view.
This idea could be carried out with
almost any table and a box so fixed
would form a useful and handy re-
ceptacle for a limited amount of
needlework, and all that would have
to be done to gain access to 1t would
be to lift up the table cloth.

from his fathers estate, held the witness
stand most of the day yesterday before
Supreme Court Justice Gavegan and a
jury, in telling Of his relations with Miss
Mae A. Sullivan who is suing him for
$225,OOO damages for breach of promise.
During part of the day and an entire
evening session of court Hoe was cross
examined by Mirabeau Towns, counsel
for Miss Sullivan. He stuck to his story
that he was merely a Good Samaritan to
Miss Sullivan and her former friend,
Mrs. Dorothy Brannigan Campion. and
insisted that although he gave Miss Sui
Ivan thousands Of dollars he did it
merely because she was a poor girl out
of work.
He asserted that the largest sum Of
money he ever gave Miss Sullivan at
one time was $4,000
Witness in Own Behalf.

his own defense after John ]. Sullivan.
a lawyer and uncle of Miss Sullivan. had
testified that he never heard of her en-
gagement to Hoe. or to Pye, or Mortar
ity, whose names have been mentioned
in the case. He said that Miss Sullivans
parents, now dead, did everything they
could for her and that her home life
was "of the purest." He said he con-
tributed to send her to a convent for
several years.
Hoe said he met Miss Sullivan and her
chum, then Miss Brannigan. on 23d street.
somewhere between Broadway and I'd
avenue. AS it was a drizzly night and
the girls had no umbrella, he offered them
his.
II said I would meet the girls the next
evening and did meet them somewhere
downtown at subway station near
enough for US to walk to the Cafe Boule-
ward" said Mr.. Hoe. 1--WE had supper
there and at supper l told the girls my

paper with my name, business address
and telephone number on it. Miss Sui
Ivan gave me her name as May Smith
and the other girl, then Miss Brannigan,
told me her true name.

Awaits.

The several hundred orphans of the Dis

chimes for . few hours for the use of the
orphans, met in front of the District
