Charm Is Necessary.

Nine. Sarah Bernhardt, the great
French actress. in signed article in
Harper's Bazaar, attributes the numer.
Gus divorces that have come into the
courts of late years to lack of charm
in the women concerned.
''If stood at the threshold of life,"
says Nine. Bernhardt, "asking Of 1t
something with which to buy happi-
ness, I should beg for charm. For II
one has charm, she will be loved. And
n woman must have love to be happy.
Beauty does not matter. If woman
has charm she can secure whatever
she wants-lOve, success, power"
The divine Sarah also says that this
Invaluable quality can be cultivated.

ENLARGE DENVER mint
PLANS TO MAKE 1T SECOND
LARGEST IN COUNTRY.
Shortage Of Small Coins Causes Di.
rector to Ask for Immediate Ex-
pansion When Congress Meets.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-lmmediate enlargement of
the Denver mint. to make it the Sec
ond largest government coinage plant
in the United States. is announced in
Denver. Thomas Annear, superin.
tendent of the mint, now is preparing
plans and an estimate of cost for sub
mission to Ray Baker, director of the
mint. at Washington. The next Con-
gress, which meets Dec, 5, will appro-
pirate the money necessary for the
improvements. Work of enlarging the
mint will begin as quickly as the
funds are provided.
The expansion of the Denver mint
is made necessary through the tre-
mendous demand for small coins, par
ticularly pennies. The mint now is
working twenty-four hours day, in
cluding Sundays, and is turning out
on an average of 100000 pennies each
twentyfour-hour period.
improvements planned will enable
the mint to do twice the amount of
coinage. The plans call for the in
stallation of four more coinage
presses and the enlargement of the
refining department. These improve
ments alone will cost in the neighbor-
hood of 100000.
That the money for the enlargement
of the mint will be appropriated by
Congress seems a certainty. Senator
Shafroth. as member of the Senate
appropriation committee, is backing
the improvement plans.
In addition, Director Baker, being q
western man, is anxious to do every
thing within his power to help the
West. He says the Denver mint will
be lin the center of the map" when
the improvements contemplated are
made. Director Baker also has ad-
vised local officials that he stands
ready to do his utmost to make the
local mint one of the largest in the
world
1t now is rated as one of the most
efficient in the country, and with
smaller plant is turning ddt more
coins than the San Francisco mint,
which has nearly twice the coinage
equipment and capacity.
During the month of October the
Denver mint turned out 100000
coins, more than were made in any
two months since the local plant was
opened.
