ONE WAY or RAISING MONEY
Governments, in NapoIeonic Wars,
Made Counterfeit Coins to Finance
Raids on Enemy.

Numerous methods have been
adopted from time to time for supple
menting the currency of the various
countries engaged in war, but 1t Is
scarcely possible that the powers will
be forced again to the expedients that
were often essential in the old days.
Prior to Napoleon's 1912 campaign,
for instance, the Paris gendarmes
made raid one night on a house in
the Plaine Montrouge, and discovered
mandatory of false notes. Quite
a sensation was caused when, on the
following day, the police minister
made the announcement that the man.
ufactory had been started "by order
of the emperor" The false notes,
which were Austrian and Russian,
instead of French, were intended for
use against the enemy on the Russian
expedition, but the bulk of them came
to grief during the great retreat.
The duke of Wellington was respon-
sible for similar stroke of business
during the Peninsular war. Badly in
need of gold when about to invade
France, he conceived the idea Of hunt
ing out some counterfeit coiners from
the ranks. A number of these gentry
were Forthcoming, and they were or
dered by the great general to exercise
their evil art by transforming English
sovereigns into louis dor and napo-
Icons.

Most Admired Statue.

What is the most admired statue In

Mr.. Moore. He says that ''in spite OF
the remoteness Of location and the diff
ficulty of finding 1t In Rock Creek ceme-
terry, no other work of art In Washing
ton Is really seen by so many people.
Undoubtedly the element of mystery In
both figure and setting has to do with
its fame; but prefer to think that In
this memorial the sculptor has ex-
pressed (using his own words to mel
the soul face to face with the great
est Of all mysteries'-the problem, II a
man die shall he live again?"
Such piece of sculpture, touching
every mind and heart, outwears In Its
appeal all the colossal figures and
speaking likenesses. 1t would triumph

BENGAL SHEEP ENJOYING LIFE At sELTsvILLg. MD.

From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
The demand for breeding ewes has
exhausted the local supply In many sec
tons, the United States department of
agriculture finds. Western range ewes
are being used to start farm flocks in
the corn belt and in the East. In the
corn belt these ewes have already
proved their ability to produce mar
ket-topping lambs when mated to good
rams Of mutton-breeds and when well
cared for during the winter and after
lambing. They may be expected to do
well on the farms east of the corn belt
and on hilly pastures of the Appa-
lachian mountain system.
Use Care in Selecting Ewes.
In purchasing these ewes care should
be taken to obtain those with sound
teeth, udders that are soft and pliable,
and teats thatnare sound and have no
hard cores. Ewes from one to three
years of age are to be preferred. These
ewes may be In thin condition but
should suffer no discrimination on this
account alone. If thin they cost less
per head than If fat, and the flesh
needed to put them in good condition
can be put on by the purchaser more
cheaply than 1t can be bought in the
open market.
These ewes are usually free from

two thousand sabers, and they were
stormed at by terrific artillery fusil-
iade, but their isolated attacks were
magnificent in courage and SO effective
they proved to the experts that the
day of charging by cavalry in mass had
not yet ended.
When Gallifet's horse were exhaust
ed, however, the Germans advanced in
charge which extended over q front
of almost two miles. Wimpffen, in
desperate counter stroke, cleared the
Germans out of BazeiIles and Balan,
and for the moment the road to escape
seemed open. What Wimpffen did not
know was that another Prussian corps
stood waiting behind the gap.
Galloping back to the town TO find
the emperor and implore him to put
himself at the head Of all available
requirements. Wimpffen was aston
ished to see a white flag displayed
from the church tower. The emperor,
who during the early hours of the fight
ing had exposed himself fearlessly to
death, had been overcome by physical
pain and exhaustion, had abandoned
hope and had offered his personal sur
render to the king of Prussia, at the
same time ordering the white flag to
be hoisted.
1t was torn down at the moment of
its appearance by Colonel Fauve, but
it went up again a short time later
when the Prussians were battering at
the western gate. 1t remained for
Wimpffen only to make terms for the
surrender of his army. Thus passed
into captivity $4,000 French soldiers
with 55S guns. The cost to the vic
tors for this victory was 5000 men.
The French killed and wounded num-
bered 1900. 1t Is Indicative of the
decentralization among the French that
this figure is 1000 less than the cost
of victory to the Germans at Woerth,
although In that case the number of
French actually engaged was one-half
that Mt Sedan. The day of the French
mountebank emperor was done. There
followed dreadful days of the COM
mune. And from 1t emerged the mag
nificent France we now know.

No Advice Given.

An inclination to advise is not bad
trait in character. even when youth
is passed. 1t shows keen interest
in human affairs, large and small, and
a willingness to accept responsibility.
The consent which life extracts from
some men and more women to let the
world go its own way, to lay 10 res
training hand upon the shoulder of
friend or acquaintance, means that the
handspring of the nature has been
broken, and that the whole character
has become passive. 1t Is strange
attitude, witnessing to q great deal CT
suffering, but accompanied very often
by strong sense of humor. But most
of those who refrain always from ad-
vising refrain out Of pure selfishness.
