The uses of business require the coinage of a greater number >of nickels than of any other coin. It has been said that its universal use as the price of a fare on the street cars is the cause of its retention, but that can hardly be so. as it enters very largely into the price of so many other things that it couJd not be dis pensed with if the price of the car care were changed. The nickel is extensively used In telephone calls.

New York —John J. Fox. chairman of local school board No. 26. borough of the Bronx, has discovered a peril— a perfectly new peril. Prominent in it is the tadpole, abetted by the grass hopper and backed up by the cater pillar Mr Fox finds that our school children study such things too much, neglecting what is really worth while The other night he Introduced a resolution before the board of which he is chairman asking that it be adopt ed and a copy sent to the board of education The resolution reads: “Resolved. That we. the members of local school board No. 26. having In mind the interest of the parents and service for a piece of land in Shrop shire. Originally the crown demanded two ltnives by way of quit rent, but when the corporation bought the land It substituted for the knives a sharp hatchet and a dull billhook, and these were offered this year The sharp ness of the hatchet and the biuntness of the billhook were duly attested by ' the city solicitor upon a bundle of twigs. By a pious fraud the horseshoes a.-’d nails are handed back to the city '■ every year to be presented afresh, but i the hatchet and billhook are often re- ; newed. and this year they were pre sented as a souvenir to the lady may oress. the welfare of the children, do hereby record our emphatic disapproval of that feature of our educational system which subordinates grammar to grass hoppers. reading to caterpillars, spell ing to goidon rod. arithmetic to bull frogs and penmanship to tadpoles. "Resolved. That we attribute to these and other equally reprehensible fads the atrocious English that Is spoken by the school children of this city, within the very shadow of our grammar schools, from the lips of boys and girls old enough to speak correctly the language of the country of their birth. Resolved, That the time has come when the taxpayers and parents should inaugurate a movement for the extirpation from cur school system of all the nonsensical fads that have crept into it during the last few years and which inure only to the benefit of those who teach the subjects, write the text-books or profit by their publi cation." But. alas, today the tadpole Is jubilant: the grasshopper ts breaking all records for running and standing jumps and the caterpillar wriggles de fiantly throughout the land Local school board No 26 killed Mr. Fox’s resolution. Music Helps Make Cigars. South Bethlehem. Pa.—Sustaining the logic of Dixie, where music makes the plantation hands work faster, a local cigar factory here has put in a pipe oqgan. worked by electricity, to try its continuous music on several hundred employes. Nothing is so discouraging as aar» warded energy. as the domestic cigar 1s to many of them. The cigarette would cease to be the popular smoke it is if the price were not five cents. Shoe laces would either become a luxury at a higher price or require payment in pennies. Turn which way cne will, the five cent piece bobs up at every turn as the most necessary coin of the realm. Its discontinuance would inevitably in crease the cost of a thousand things of every day life, wbich no dealer now has the daring to change because of riveted custom There is no likeli hood that the government will soon consider the elimination of this coin, as such action would result in a howl of d:aapprovai nationwide. Engagement Bangle. London.—Notwithstanding the strong feminist movement in England among a certain smart set of girls, it is now considered the proper thing doubly to advertise ones engagement by a wrist bangle as well as an engagement ring, and sometimes even an ankle bracelet is included among the goiden manacles proclaiming engagement bondage. The stronger minded Eng lish women are indignant at this latest fad on the part of their weaker sis ters. Character Above Money. The essential thing is not money, but character—Le Conte.

No matter what may be the opinion of Mr. Joseph Cannon, no matter if j he may be looked upon by some as a czar, and by others as a big warm hearted man, with many of the in stincts that make humanity very bear able. all win admit that he is a man who has been advertised more than any other man in the United States. What he may have to say therefore on any subject, will have weight. Ob servant, he speaks his mind freely, j He was interviewed the other day by (he correspondent of a Canadian aewspaper. He spoke of his admiration for Canada, anl he is ouoted in a way that pictures faniy well the persona: 1 of the man. The correspondent says he launched out into personal bi ography. proverbial philosopby, politi cal comment, cynical scorn, broad pro fanity and sentimental poetry such as one rarely hears in the space of an hour. He discussed the Canadian ta riff, and then said: "People say I br»ak the Ten Commandmants, all of them. Put I don't, at least net often. I did break one of them up in Canada two or three years ago. As 1 rode from Winnipeg to the Rockies over your great West ar.d saw the finest wheat fie Ids in the world, 1 though; of Virginia and a lot of oar States, and I smashed the Tenth Commandment every hour of the journey. Yes, sir, I coveted my neighbor's land." Com ing from a man of the fame of Mr. Cannon, these were words that should have some weight with the Americans who may still have doubts of the ad vantages that are offered to them in Western (V.nada. A home amongst the wheatfie’.ds. Hundreds of thou sands of Americans are adopting it. They go to Central Canada, to any one of the three Provinces of Mani toba, Saskatchewan or Alberta, or to the Coast Province of British Colum bia, take up their homestead of 160 acres, and probably pre-empt another 160 acres, or it may be they do not care for pioneering twenty or thirty miles from an existing railway, and purchase a farm. Then they settle upon it and, having no clearing away of timber they begin at once to cul tivate it, and make money. That they make money and much more than they could possibly make on the high priced farms they have left, is the evidence of hundreds of thousands. They do not leave civilized life, they but remove from one sphere to an other. They have splendid social con ditions. churches, schools, rural tele phones. splendid roads, railways, con venient just the same as what they left, and what is more, they get much greater returns from their crops, which give abundant yield. The cli mate is perfect, and it is no wender that most flattering reports are sent back to their friend? in the States, and it is no wonder that Joe Canr.on was tempted to speak as he did. lie "coveted" his neighbor's land. Reason for Envy. The stingy man had come home and had objected when his wife attempted to kisr him. ■'I've just had a tooth pulled." he explained. "Well. 1 envy the dentist." his wife replied. "You envy the dentist? What do you mean ?" ' Oh. nothing much." the wife sighed. "Only he's the first person I've ever heard of who succeeded in getting anything out of you."—Woman's Na tional Daily.
