COINS 1000 YEARS OLD
Museum in Washington Contains Rare
Chinese Specimens and others
Of antiquity.

The National museum coin and
medal collection of about 5000 pieces
includes several Chinese coins OF the
earliest type. dating back to about
2254 B. c. The rarest pieces OF this
ancient coinage are of spade" key"
and circular form, termed "merchan
disc or Cloth" money. Several OF
them are more than 1000 years old
While their face value probably was
not more than a few cents. each one
is worth large sum today.
Another odd form of early coin IL
the Chinese knife money. of which
several specimens are exhibited. They
resemble nothing so much as a set
of very old and tnin razor blades
1t seems that the knife was the first
article of trade in China. The aborig
ines bought their necessities for &C
many knives, and It was only natural
for them to adopt this imagery In
their early trade coins. Most of these
coins are of iron and copper. but
some are of silver. gold. lead and
bamboo.
These Chinese coins form part OF
the George B. Glover collection. which
includes representative coins from
many of the dynasties OF China and
set of modern coins dated 1907. Coins
from the Ming, Tartar. Tschine, Hsia
Yuen. the Rebellion of Princes and
other periods are arranged In chron
oioglcal order. ranging from about
1854 B. c. to recent issues. Some
queer antique amulets and medals are
also In this collection and several old
money and medal molds.
From Japan there are several rare
old coins of gold. silver and copper,
and an issue of 1870. The Glover
exhibit includes 2,025 coins and med
ais
The Henry Adams collection of
coins comprises many interesting
pieces Of money and medals struck in

to the museum by the Polish National
Alliance of the United States.
While the medal collection is rep
resentative of nearly every country of
the world. a large part of 1t pertains
to the United States. This part is
divided into the following division:
Before the Revolution, revolutionary.
commemorating revolutionary events
but issued subsequently. and 1924.

war periods.
Many of the medals commemorate
notable events In the United States.

There is neither verbosity nor a
semblance of redundancy in this doc
ument. 1t is simplicity itself, but it
is all the more diplomatic, and when
it is ready to be delivered to the
man who is to present it to the en-
peror of all the Russians, after his
great and good friend has affixed his
signature thereto. it is a work of
art This work is done by E. B. Russ,
for 13 years clerk in the diplomatic
bureau of the department of state.
This letter of credence is a sample
of that given 70 all United States min
listers and ambassadors, and the act
ual writing Of all the documents is
done by Mr.. Russ, to whom also is
entrusted the writing of the smaller
treaties and extensions to the great
er ones now being brought about by
Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Russ does his work with an or
binary steel pen and when 1t is COM
pleted 1t is so-closely akin to engrav-
ing that there is simply the so-called
distinction without difference be-
tween the two.

The coat is not allowed to distract
the attention from this clever posing
of odd lace 1t is entirely plain. but
quite original in cut. The hat is of
black satin with two extravagantly
long Numidi feathers sweeping be-
yond the brim edge.
The attention of the seeker for new
styles having been seized by this
novel gown, he notes its details to
find new features worth remember
ing. First, its simplicity; then the
extra length of tunic and width of pet
ticoat and most noticeable. the wide
hat brim. which is a radical new de-
parture.
1t is not often that anything so
striking is at the same time so ele-
CANT The combination of black and
white makes this possible.
The second gown is hardly less
noteworthy and only shade less orig
pal. The tunic is of black net. hav-
ing an insert OF lace wrought in and
a Border Of very wide velvet ribbon
above the hem. 1t is set on to the
bodice of black net by band of black
velvet. The long sleeves are of net
and lace in black There is that orig
inal touch which means everything in
the really gorgeous embroidery in
white figures which ornaments the net
bodice.

ACID IN MEAT
CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take . glass Of Salts if your Baek hurts
Or Bladder bothers you-Drink
more water.

If you must have your meat every day,
eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts
occasionally, says a noted authority who
tells US that meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in their ef-
forts to !expel it from the blood. They
become sluggish and weaken, then you
suffer with a dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue Is coated and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full Of sediment, tho
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids, to
cleanse the kidneys and flush of tho
body's urinous waste get four ounces of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
take . tablespoonful in . glass Of
water before breakfast for . few days
and your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts 10 made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to ncutralize the acids in urine,
90 it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and males a delightful eferve.cens

AID HOPES TO +.
BEAT Richie

Milwaukee, WIS.,, March 11.-All
roads for fight fans now lead to this
city, where the most promising bout
of the year is to be staged tomorrow
night with Lightweight Champion
Willie Richie and former Champion
Ad Wblgast as the principals. The
fight is expected to show whether
Richie has gone back as a result Of
his many months of comparative idle
ness and if Wolgast has come back,
as his good showing in his recent
bout with Joe Rivers would e to
indicate. y
1t is now more than four months
since Champion Richie has been seen
in the ring. His last battle was a no
decision affair with Leach Cross in
New York on November 10. Immed-
lately after the fight with Cross the.
cha ,npi0n went to California to full.
fill an engagement to box 10 rounds
with Tommy Murphy. This bout vas
scheduled for December 10, but a few
days before that date Richie develop
ed an abscess of the nose and the
boutwas adjourne until January.
Then Richie vas incapacitated by
another slight accident and tho 60
with Murphy was called of.
Many critics are Of the opinion that
Wolgast has come back and will give
Richie a surprisingly hard battle.
They point to his showing against
Joe Rivers as conclusive proof. Many
other close followers of the game,
while not caring to venture a predic-
ton OF a Wolgast victory. are of the
opinion that the former champion
will be able to stay the ten rounds.
The Richie supporters on the other
hand, believe that W0lgast will nave
no chance against the champion.
They declare that nitchie has improv
ed since he defeated Wolgast and
COPIED the title In the hattie at DAILY
City on November %, 1912. He has
the advantage over Wolgast in the
matter OF age and the confidence
that comes of holding the champion
ship. They admit Wolgast's clever.
ness and his ability to deliver a tell
ing blow, but they are of the opinion
that he is no longer able to with.
stand the punishment that he could
asssimilate a few years back.
At their respective training camps
the two fighters were reported today
to be in excellent shape for the bat
tie. Wolgast has kept himself in good
trim by his frequent bouts and need
ed no severe training to get into
saaps for tomorrow nights contest.
Richie has been training faithfully
since he arrived from the West ten
days ago and has succeeded In LAX:
ing off surplus flesh.
The fight will take place in the new
stadium which will seat 10000 spec.
tators. Promoter Tom Andrews be.
lieves that every seat will be filled
when the gong calls the fighters into
the ring. Special trains will bring
biz delegations of fight fans from
Chicago. Other delegations are com.
ing from points throughout Wisconsin
Illinois, Michigan, Iowa and States as
far distant as North Dakota. The
advance sale indicates that the pre-
dictions Of the largest crowd that
ever witnessed a mill in this city are
likely to be fulfilled.
