Medieval Coins.

Many of the medieval coins were
far larger and more ornate than any
issues today. The die cutting was not
only more elaborate, but in much high
er relief. Some Of the German coins
Of the Seventeenth century were Az
inches in diameter and contained one
pound of silver. Coins such as these
of the>10-thaler size are to be found in
many collections, and the coins of the
2, 3, 5-tha1er or dollar size are in many
cases not especially rare and can be
obtained in almost mint state for rea-
sonable prices. In many cases silver
cups and plates were cut up in Sec
lions about equal in weight to $3.50
pieces and these rude planchets were
counter-stamped in the corners and
center with punch marks Of crests and
coats of arms. There was a common
practice of clipping" coins of any ir-
regular shape, and this practice was
punishable with death.

WONDERS IN GRAIN OF SAND
Remarkable Combinations When Seen
Beneath the Powerful Glass OF
Even Ordinary Microscope.

A handful of sand, trickling through
the fingers in hard, dry grains, appears
to the naked eye merely as collec-
ton of tiny stones. Many of the grains
are little stones ground by the action
of the tides from the faces of the great
cliffs against WHICH the waves dash;
but others are very different affairs.
If you spread pinch of sand on
piece of white paper, and look at it
through magnifying glass, you will
have surprise Many of the grains
are shells consisting Of turns and spi-
rails as perfect as those of the whelk
or the periwinkle, but SO tiny that
without the aid Of glass the eye
cannot see them.
They are made by class of minute
creatures that swarm in the waters,
and as the animals die their shells
are washed up by the tide to form
sand. In course Of time they become
welded into masses of stone, and as
the centuries pass by they form great
rocks. Many of our mightiest noun
tain ranges are made Of nothing but
the shells of these tiny creatures.

The Finished Job.

When a woman sees a man. her first
impulse Is to make fool of him.
After she has made fool Of him, she
drops him. because no woman wants a
fool. If she can't make fool Of him.
then she hates him; because no woman
wants a stubborn man. But IL he
turns the tables and makes her want
him until her heart breaks, worship
him until her very soul weeps with
hunger, then she loves him truly for
who would not adore an unimpassioned
brute?
Truly, that is the finished job Of the
good god Love.-Richmond Times-Dis-

Adventure With Pigmy Rattlesnake.

DR.. R. W. Shufeldts writes in
Natureland: A few months ago a
friend. residing in Florida, sent me
a beautiful live specimen Of this
snake, which was of a fine ash
gray color, marked with medium
sized, more or less rounded black
blotches. A number of small buttons
made up its rattle, which could be dis
tinctly heard at distance of eight or
ten feet in quiet room. On one occa-
sion ! came very near being bitten by
it, as I was not aware that 1t could
coil itself up tightly when on a hard,
smooth surface, and then by peculiar
muscular action throw itself clear of
the ground, and for several feet in any
direction it wished. 1t nearly got me
in the hand as / was about to take it
up to pose it for its picture I know
of no instance where death has fol-
lowed the bite of this reptile, but that
this would be the result, were no at
tempt made to treat the wound, there
cannot be a shadow Of doubt.

FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 20, 1922

IN THE war cloud lowering over the
near East many signs are read by those
who claim to be wise If England in
her diplomatic councils finds that pru-
dence is the better part of valor, all
the ominous signs may be like those
that fail in fair weather. And yet,
even the student who only specifically
has observed the trend of things during
the last quarter century is impressed
with forebodings of ''great things to
come" out of the present situation in
Asia and Europe. The Persians tried
it several hundred years ago before the
Christian era. They were defeated by
the European Greeks, and conquered
by Alexander the Great. The Moslems
tried it during the Middle Ages and
almost succeeded. Europe recoiled in
the action of the Franklin armies that
cleared Spain of the Moorish power,
though not of its culture, and all Eu-
rope in frenzy of religious enthusi-
asm in the Crusades flung its power of
men and means against the Orientals
to rcll back upon their own sands the
threatening tides of her fanatical
hordes. Are the victorious Kemalists
who threaten Constantinople the ad-
vance guard of another Asiatic invasion,
another contest for supremacy, another
battle between Oriental barbarism and
Occidental civilization? If the answer
must be in the affirmative. England is
by her stand upon the Bosporus and
Dardanelles today assuming the heroic
role of the defender of western civiliz-
alton against its eastern antagonist.
The situation is intensely interesting
and tense with dramatic possibilities.
Russia, emotionally Oriental and intel
lectually Occidental, fiirts with both,
but loves neither. Her $50 millions
hang on the outskirts of both regions
geographically and culturally, ready to
join the winner. When shall we know?
Tomorrow or the next day? Somebody
will eventually be the loser; but Russia
will win. She will win, with or with
out the help Of Germany.
