Nickel Stands for More Fixed Values Than Any Other Single Denomina tion, and More of Them Are Required by Public. Washington. Officials or the treas ury department sometimes discuss the nation's somewhat cumbersome coinage and make suggestions to one another that this or that change might bring relief to the working forces of the department. Generally these discussions do not go beyond the inner circle where they originate, no change is made or even suggested seriously and the work of the mint goes on as before. Recently, however, the fact leaked out that the five-cent piece or nickel had been under discussion and that the government might ask congress to pass a law eliminating it from the na tional coinage. Small likelihood ex ists or ever did exist that such a step would be taken, but for a short space of time considerable anxiety devel oped in all parts of the country lest the useful and popular "nickel" should disappear irom the circulating me dium. The fact Is the government could afford to dispense with almost any coin rather than the five-cent piece. It stands for more stable prices than any other. It is the price of a loaf of bread, it pay3 the cost of the ride in the street car. with it the German buyj his glass of beer and the Amer ican pays for the shining of his shoes. It is probably not too much to say that the disappearance of tho nickel would prove a greater shock to the finances of the nation than almost anything that could happen. The five-cent coin for two genera tions at least has been the fixed price of eo many things that the people would be at complete loss how to pro ceed without it. True, hundreds of thousands of five-cent pieces are lost each year, but that is duo to the Old Custom Kept in London Six Ponderous Horseshoes, of Ancient Date, Tendered as Quit Rent for Smithy. London. Six ponderous horseshoes, more than 500 years old, have been tendered to the crown by the city of London corporation by way of quit rent for a bygone smithy in the Strand, and at the same time the city solicitor counted out CI nails, which the king's remembrancer pronounced to he "good number." The scene of the ceremony was the royal courts of justice and among the crowds of Interested onlookers were the lady mayoress and her two daugh ters.

When 17-year-old Holsey Fouts was operated on for a painful affliction of the feet and lower limbs, he stoutly refused to take an anesthetic. Dr. Donahoo finally agreed to perform the tedious opera lion in face of this handicap. The youngster was strapped to the table without removing his coat. Suffering most excruciating pain, young Fouts uttered never a sound, but when the operation was over the physician took a ragged coat sleeve out of the lad's mouth. He had most of the sleeve between his teeth and it was bitten to shreds. The boy's father stood near during the operation and when he saw the surgeon pull the sleeve from his son's mouth, fainted away. Perhaps the woman whoe friends , talked her to death felt that she had to die in seiS-deiense. , amazing use to which this little coin is put 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 could not be dis pensed with if the price of the car care were changed. The nickel is extensively used In telephone calls. It was formerly more than now the open sesame of the pop ular slot machine, for which it still does extensive duty. It is the price of admission to the fast multiplying picture shows in all parts of the coun try. The new fashioned boot shining parlor charges a nickel. The saloon keeper and the baker have for years gathered their daily harvest of these little coins. The soda fountain, grow ing in popular favor, deals mostly in nickels. Ice cream in summer time goes Tor five cents, and the charge for a myriad things in the pharmacy and the five-cent store requires this coin. Most smokers would have to quit were it not for the nickel, obnoxious Biology Peril Study of Grasshoppers and Tadpoles Takes Up Too Much Time of School Children. 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.

Originally the crown demanded two knives 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 ot the hatchet and the bluntness of the billhook were duly attested by the city solicitor upon a bundle of twigs. By a pious fraud the horseshoes ard nails are handed back to the city every year to be presented afresh, but the hatchet and billhook are often re newed, and this year they were pre sented as a souvenir to the lady may oress.

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 J.'supproval 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 one's engagement by a wrist bangle as well as an engagement ring, and sometimes even an ankle bracelet is included among the golden manacles proclaiming engagement bondage.

No matter what may be the opinion of Mr. Joseph Cannon, no matter if 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 will admit that he is a man who has been advertised more than any other man In the JJnited States. What he may have to say therefore on any subject, will have weight. Ob servant, he speaks his mind freely. He was interviewed the other day by the correspondent of a Canadian newspaper. Ho spoke of his admiration for Canada, and he is quoted in a way that pictures farily well the persona: of tho man. The correspondent says he launched out into personal bi ography, proverbial philosophy, politi cal comment, cynical scorn, broad pro fanity and sentimental poetry such as one rarely hears in the space of an hour, lie discussed the Canadian ta riff, and then said: "People say I break the Ten Ccmmandraants, all of them. But I dca't, at least not often. I did break one of them up in Canada two or three years ago. As I rode from Winnipeg to the Rockies over your great West and saw the finest v.heatfields in the world, I thought of Virginia and a lot of our 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 Canada. A home amongst the wheatfields. 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 wonder that most flattering reports are sent bark to their friends in the States, and it is no wonder that Joe Cannon was tempted to speak as he did. He "coveted" his neighbor's land. Reason for Envy. The stingy man had come Lome and had objected when his wife attempted to kiss him. "I've just had a tooth pulled," he explained.
