FACTS ABOUT THE COINAGE
Director of the Mint Gives Informa
tion as to Old and New Issues
The director of the mint is called
on to answer such a wide range ol
questions concerning the values of
old and new coins and medals that
he has found it necessary to issue
circulars covering matters of this
sort It tells some interesting facts
It appears that the mint does not buy
old coins or paper money except some
rare colonial coins in fine condition
which are desired for the mint cabi
net
Mutilated or uncurrent United
States gold and silver coin is pur
chased as bullion The mint has no
pattern pieces for sale The govern
ment pays no premium for the return
of any of its coins or paper money
New coins cannot be struck until au
thorized by an act of congress The
mint supplies United States coins on
ly and not of any past date The 50
gold piece and the half dollar and
quarter dollar pieces in gold were
struck by private parties on the Cali
fornia coast during the 1849 period
and not by the United States gov
ernment
The coinage of the following coins
ceased in the years named Half and
1 cent copper in 1857 1 cent nickel
1864 half dime and 3 cents silver
and 2 cents bronze in 1873 20 cents
silver 1878 trade dollars 1883 1
and 3 gold and 3 cents nickel 1889
The Columbian half dollar was coined
in 1893 The Lafayette dollar was
struck in 1899 the date on the coin
1900 being that of the unveiling of
the memorial
There are certain markings on ev
ery United States coin that enable
the place of its coinage to be located
Those struck at the Philadelphia mint
have no mint mark but those struck
at all other mints are distinguished by
a small letter on the reverse near the
bottom These letters are C for
Charlotte N C discontinued in 1861
CC for Carson City Nev discontinued
in 1893 D for Dahlonega Ga discon
tinued in 1861 O for New Orleans
and S for San Francisco
The coins of the United States now
authorized by law are In gold dou
ble eagle eagle half eagle and quar
ter eagle in silver half dollar quar
ter dollar and dime minor 5 cent
nickel and 1 cent bronze A person
may buy a proof set of gold coinr
from the mint for 3850 and a proof
set of silver and minor coins for
150 When the business of the
mints is slack medals may be struck
from dies furnished by individuals
public institutions and incorporated
societies at a charge sufficient to cov
er the cost of the operation and the
value of the metal
A Sure Thing
A crowd standing around one of the
bookmakers at Overland park Den
ver one day during the races was
given an opportunity to have a little
joke on that self important person
who was interrupted in his talk to
the men by a well dressed man who
forced his way to him and said some
thing excitedly
The bookmaker beat on the railing
before him and called for attention
Gentlemen he shouted I have
been asked to say that a pocketbook
containing 500 has been lost or
stolen from a gentleman here who
says he will give a reward of 50 for
it
Seventy five dollars yelled some
wag on the outskirts of the crowd
Ninety dollars came from some
one else instantly
One hundred dollars One hun
dred and twentyfive dollars One
hundred and fifty dollars
In a moment the enthusiastic bids
for the lost purse caused its owned to
retreat to the grand stand and the
bookmaker to say things which were
drowned in the laughter of his audi
ence

analysis a drop skirt is the result
and such being the innocent case
the chances are that the garment in

something else might be intended

this interesting subject was conveyed

The Brave Old Way
I say risk all for one warm kiss
I say twere better risk the fall
Like Romeo to venture all
And boldly climb to deadly bliss
I like that savage Sabine way
What mighty minstrels came of it
Their songs are ringing to this day
The bravest ever sung or writ
Their loves the love of Juliet
Of Portia Desdemona yea
The old true loves are living yet
And we we love we weep we sigh
In love with loves that will not die
Then take her lover sword in hand
Hot blooded and red handed clasp
Her sudden stormy tall and grand
And lift her in your iron grasp
And kiss her kiss her till she cries
From keen sweet happy killing pain
Aye kiss her till she seeming dies
Aye kiss her till she dies and then
Why kiss her back to life again

been a

Admiral Schley took a leading part
It was a great naval battle Without a moments warning
it began Quick decision undaunted courage excellent dis
cipline resolute self confidence these combined in Admiral
Schley to produce that dash and daring so characteristic of
the American soldier
A man must think quickly in these days There is no
time for slow action New enterprises arise in an hour
Old ones pass away in a moment
A multitude of great themes clamor for notice A man
man must take sides for or against by intuition rather than
logical deduction
One day this fighting admiral Schley happened to be in
company y J with
ers who ADMIRALS OPINION OF e r e
talking I 1 on various
topics of popular interest The subject of Peruna was
Si
raised its popularity as a catarrh remedy its national im
portance its extensive use
One asked his opinion Without a moments hesitation
he said I can cheerfully say that Mrs Schley has taken
Ieruna and I believe with good effect
Like the Battle of Santiago the thought was sprung upon
him without any warning and he disposed of it with tho
same vim and decision as he did with the Spanish ileet led
by the ill fated Viscaja
His words concerning Peruna have gone out into the world
to be repeated by a thousand tongues because he has said
them

Except for an in born manly independence in a country of
free speech these words never would have been uttered by an
officer in such a notable position as that of Admiral Schley
Except for a world wide notoriety and popularity such as
Peruna enjoys no remedy could ever have received such out
spoken public endorsement by such a man

Some dont keep
Defiance Starch This is because they
have a stock on hand of other brands
containing only 12 oz in a package
whichth ey wont be able to sell first
because Defiance contains 16 oz for
the same money
Do you want 16 oz instead of 12 oz
for same money Then buy Defiance
Starch Requires no cooking
It looks as if the czar were due to

Defiance Starch
should be in every household none so
good besides 4 oz more for 10 cents
than any other brand of cold water

Nothing convinces like conviction
A striking contrast
between Defiance Starch
and any other brand will
be found by comparison
