VISIONS NOT ALL REALIZED
But Even So, There Is Something Fine
In the Dreaming of Beautiful
Dreams.

There seem to be great many dis
appointed people In the world today;
the explanation apparently is that
many of us do not find our dreams and
hopes realized In quite the way and at
the time we expected. How many
times have there been conjured up be-
fore us a kind Of magic day in which
all fine and splendid things would be
easily possible, and life would, of ne
cessity, lose very much that was sor-
did and un-ideal? We had beautiful
visions that seemed so easy of realiza-
ton. But In the cold light Of the day
into which we have now come there
are many hard and unyielding I'M
ideal facts, and what we fondly pie
tured fails to shape itself lin actual
life. OF course, we are disillusoned
and disappointed. But ought we to
be? Was there, after all, anything the
matter with the vision that we cher
lshed? Is II possible that the trouble
with us Is that we have not the faith
and the wisdom to see the vision be-
ing realized, though In ways and fash
ions of which we had not dreamcd7
Columbus did not discover what he
looked for, but were his faith and
dreaming not justified nevertheless?
And would he ever have discovered
anything but for the faith and the
dreaming Montreal Herald.

HIGH HONOR FOR SMALL GIRL
Face OF Ten-Year-old Has Appeared
on Millions of Coins Of the
United States.

The government of the United States
In 1885 made an offer of $1,000 for the
most acceptable design to be placed
upon the new cent coin soon to be
issued. Some Indian chiefs travelled
from the northwest to Washington to
visit the Great Father and then
journeyed to Philadelphia to see the
mint, whose chief engraver was James
Barton Longacre, who invited them to
his home.
The engraver's daughter, Sarah,
aged 10, greatly enjoyed the visit Of
her fathers guests and during the eve
ming, to please her, one Of the chiefs
took off his feathered helmet and war
bonnet and placed 1t on her head. In
Il Z company was an artist, who i'm
mediately sketched her and handed the
picture to her father. Mr.. Longacre,
knowing of the competition for like
ness to go upon the cent projected
under the inspiration of the hour, re-
solved to contend for the prize offered
by the government To his delight the
officials accepted 1t, and the face Of
his daughter appeared upon the coin,
which was circulated about the nation
for nearly a century. There were
more than a hundred competitions.
The cent bearing the face Of Sarah
Longacre has gone into more hands
than any other American coin.

How ENGLAND Grows,

A great deal Of interest Is taken
In England In the question of coast
protection. The ocean, assaillng the
cliffs, gradually tears them away, but
this very process furnishes a defense
for the land by building up long
beaches of sand and shingle which ar
rest the waves before they can attack
the cliffs. An effort Is making to pre-
vent. or better regulate, the removal Of
this material for construction and road
building, because In many places its
removal has permitted the sea free
ly to exert its power of erosion.
The ordnance survey has ascertained
that In the last half century England
has lost 6,640 acres by sea erosion
and gained $4,000 acres through re-
claiming land the existence Of which
is mainly due to material brought
down by the rivers.

Midoet stores In the East.

In the "sOuks," or markets, of Nab

that the customer stands outside to

independence Of Georgia.

The Georgians deserve to succeed,
for their history shows them to be n
plucky and persevering people.
Georgia's existence as an independ-
ent state goes far back into history
In fact, the annals of Georgia are
older even than those Of Greece and
Rome, and Christianity was preached
there in the fourth century. Although
a victim to incessant attacks from the
Persians and the Turks, who subju-
gated her provinces one by one, she
succeeded not only in preserving her
existence, but In retaining until 1901
a remnant of her political independ-
ence. Happily she is free again. for
In May, 1918, the act of independence
of Georgia was passed by the Georgian
national council. Thus ended her con-
nection with the Russian empire

BUT ONE THING LEFT UNSA!D
Seems Something of Pity That
Writer Did Not Complete
Puneent Epistle.

Not long ago, the story runs. a trav-
cling salesman visited a certain small
town and sold the proprietor of Its
general store an order of jewelry. the
Youths Companion relates. When the
iewelry arrived It was not as repre-
scented and the merchant consequently
returned ID. But the wholesale house
nevertheless, attempted to collect the
bill. and drew a sight draft on the
merchant through the local bank,
which returned the draft unhonored.
The wholesalers then wrote to the
postmaster, inquiring about the tinan-
cial standing of the merchant, and
the postmaster replied laconically that
II was O. X.
BY return mail the wholesalers re-
quested him to hand the lnclosed
account to the leading lawyer" of the
place for collection.
This is the reply that they received:
THE undersigned is the merchant
on whom you attempted to palm off
your worthless goods The undersigned
which you sent your sight draft. The
undersigned Is the postmaster to whom
you wrote. and the undersigned is the
lawyer whose services you sought to
obtain for your nefarious business. If
the undersigned were not also the
pastor of the church at this place he
would tell you where to GO"
