United States Gold Coins.

The first American gold coinage OF
eagles. half-eagles and quarter-eagles
of the value of SO, So and $3.50, re-
spectively, was placed in circulation
126 years ago. One and three dollar
gold pieces were formerly coined, but
they were discontinued in 1890. The
first coin called an eagle was used in
Ireland in the thirteenth century, and
was so called from the figure of an
eagle impressed upon it, but 1t was
made of base metal. The standard of
the eagle was borne by the ancient
Persians, and the Romans also carried
gold and silver eagles as ensigns. and

LIFE RESEMBLES MAGIC VASE
Each of Us May Confidently Rely on
Getting Out of 1t Just What
We Put In.

An eastern legend tells Of a won
derful magic vase-knOwn as the vase
CT life-which was ever full of mys-
terious liquid. No one could tell what
this liquid was. No chemist could ana
lyZe it or tell what entered into Its
composition. The marvellous thing
about it was that whatever one
dropped into it would overflow and
run down the sides of the vase That
is, the original liquid would not run
over, but the thing which was dropped
into it would overflow in kind and
amount The depositor would always
get out of this magic vase exactly
what he put into 1t.
Life Is just erch a magic vase. 1t
will run over to you only that which
you drop into it-nothing more, moth
ing less, nothing different. If we drop
in love, generosity, tolerance, mag
nanimity, kindness, helpfulness, I'M

to us the same things In the same
amount and quality. If, on the other
hand, we put in hate, jealousy, envy,
cruelty, selfishness, grasping, greed,

black devils to torment us and rob us
Of happiness and success.-O. S. Mar

The amendments to the covenant of the League of Nations are under way despite the peulant promise of President Wilson that there would be none It is quite likely that the document will be so amended as to meet all objections which been raised against it and so that the could accept it even though it were not a part of the peace treaty. There are a few leaders in this country in a hope less minority who opposed any form of league or society of nations They believe that league to effective would too much involve us in the worlds affairs, and that league is better than non effective league
 But the great majority of the leaders and believe of the people are at mildly in favor of league in which we shall sacrifice nothing of eregnty in which we do not shoulder too great burden of the worlds troubles.
 The three principal objections to the covenant it did sufficiently safeguard the Monroe Doctrine that it not quite clear to the exer else by members of mandatory powers and then that the right of withdrawal without prejudice from the league was not plainly defined. There was also general criticism of the looseness of language. The reply of the president and his supporters to these objections was an impatient one They raised the issue of partisanism. They declared unequvo- cally that the Monroe Doctrine thoroughly pro- tected; that right of withdrawal guaranteed, and that the looseness of language of the nant that merely flexibility. very excellent quality in rubber but not in foundation of struc- where rigidty is required.

READY MARKET FOR BUFFALO

When "Billp Clayton of Thermopolis, Wyoming stockman. arrived in South Omaha stock market the other day with a carload of twenty three buffalo consigned to a commission company for sale the market, men at the yards turned their heads and laughed at Bills judgment.
 There had never before been such consignment of bison at the local market. Who wanted buffalo, and who would buy them? were the questions asked Even Theodore Tillotson, with much ranch life perience and knowing well the sale end of the buf fao, thought Bill trying to put on him.
 But Bill showed them.
 The next day, Miller Bros. of Bliss, Oklahoma purchased sixteen of the cows for their Wild West show, and Arthur Rogers, local commission man, bought six more and sent them to Nebraska ranch.
 Then right top of this Bill sold four more loads of buffalo. An Iowa farmer and cattle feeder contracted for carloads to be delivered in three weeks. He will pasture them this summer and finish them off for the market next fall just before the ho days. Montana and Wyoming officials wired Bill and each bought carload of buffalo for state park purposes.
