A LITTLE COMMENT ON COINS

During the next o days the new
ly minted half dollars, quarters and
dimes which are to replace the old
ones will be distributed throughout
the country.
There is national law which re-
quires that there shall be change
in the design of all silver coins ev-
cry pa years. In accordance with
this rule there has been going on
gradual preparations for the change,
and the Government is now ready to
trade old coins for new, after the
example of the lamp vender of the
Arabian tale. Only there is no trick
or subterfuge as to the coin; in this
modern trade the public gets the
best of it,
For several months the minis at
Denver, San Francisco and Philadel-
phia have been minting the newly
designed coins at the rate of S4O,-
600 worth a day. That sounds like
ain immense amount of small change.
but it takes an immense amount to
supply the population of this big
country

one side the Goddess of Liberty hold
ing a bunch of olive branches, with
the old legend, In God We Trust
above her. On the other side q

ing in its talons what the designers

the other side is An eagle in full

The new dimes will be quite diff
ferent from the old ones. On one
side there is woman's head, with

date below. On the other "a bunch
of rods and an AK bound together
after the fashion of the faces
borne of old by the Roman lictors.
Below this is the motto: "E Pluri-
bus Unum."
As the new coins are sent out
thMe will be a gradual INJECTING OF
the old ones to be reminted, so now
is the time for the numismatist to
put away few samples for future
collections.
For the moralst there is whole
story behind each of these new coins.
They come as clean as new souls

ma of life; they will lie in miladis

MAY BANK MANY FURNACES
Car Shortage Being Felt Very AcuteIy
In Pittsburgh District.

Pittsburgh. Dec. 5.-Railroad car
shortage has become so acute in the
Pittsburgh district that even the
larger manufacturing interests are
fearing forced suspensions of opera
tons until relief comes. Yesterday
the Carnegie Steel company was IN
able to maintain all its blast furnaces
in operation and officials stated that
unless a better car supply was forth
coming soon a half dozen OF the fur
naces would have to be banked be-
cause of the inability OF the railroads
to haul coke fast enough.
The blast furnace of the Carnegie
Steel company at Niles, O., has been
banked for three weeks now because
of a lack of coke. One at Bellaire,
O., is also down for the same reason,
and coke supplies for some of the
stacks further removed from the Con
nellsville region are running with
small reserve stocks of coke.
