"There are a great many girls In this country who have great aspirations to become army nurses and do good, whose mothers have to get up In tho night when there is sickness In the family." Lindsey 2'mw. That's different Bro. Work. An old newspaper clipping which had evidently been carefully treasured by tho lata Judge Wickham of tho Super ior Court, wus found in his pocket when he diod recently. It road us follows: "Hero is what Abraham Lincoln said of the law: 'Let reverenco of tho law bo breathed by every mother to tho lisping babo that prattles in her lap; ht it be taught in the schools, semi naries and colleges; let it bo written in pVlmers, spolling-books and almanacs: let it be preached from the pulpits and proclaimed in legislative halls, and on forced in courts of justice, In short, lot It become the political religion of the nation.' " What becomes of the conts ? Of 1 19, 900,000 old copper cents which wero cnt out from tho mint only 900,000 have been accounted for and only now and then is a stray one of the remaining 119,900,000 seen in circulation. Of the 4,500,000 bronzo two cont pieces sent out only 1,.")00,000 ever found their way back, leaving, 3,000,000 to bo accounted for, and there are an equal number of nlckol three cent pieces somewhere in this country, though it is very rarely one is seen. Of the 800,000 half conts not one has ever boon returned to tho mint. A few of this denomination may be seen in tho hands of coin collectors, 'but the whoroabouts of tho rest is a mystery. ( As to the length of time the new war revenue tiflt will continue to bo collect ed after tho conclusion of the war, a government olllcial Bays: "It is impos sible to answer any such question. The law was passed by Congress and it must bo repealed by Congress. The present Congress w ill ccrta'nly not repeal it and it is prohuhlu that the law with refer ence to thtf war tax will stand for at least five years. Of uourso, it would hurdly 'look well for me to suy what tho United Statos government will do or is likely to do, but this Is my personul opinion. One thing is certain, and that is that the expenses of this war are to bp paid, and wo have not paid oik all the debt of our previous war. and It not at ull like ly that the war tax law will bo repealed until gome of this debt is canoelled, and that will take some time, even with the increased tax and any indemnity tho government could receive from Spain." The Coal Trade Journal says: "With the expansion of the area of our country must como an expansion of trade of all kinds, descriptions and nature. Not a wheel can be turned In this direction without the use of coal and It Is but natural to expect that there will he a growth In the ooal trade of those pro ducing states having an outlet to the aeaooast. It is the policy of the Gov ernment that our coaling stations shall be supplied with the production of mines in the United States rather than 'purchase abroad other ooal; this can be done and is being done as our ooal is being sold at so low a price at tide that It competes favorably as to cost with that mined elsewhere in the world. There has already been an expansion of our foreign trade in coal owing to these conditions, and it is hoped that having onoe achieved It, it may continue with us and increase. Especially with the Vest Indies should we do more trade." Sheriff's Sales. Sheriff E.
