The Queerest Coins on Earth.
Among the strangest coins in the;
world are those used in certain out-of
the-way towns and villages in South
west Nigeria, on the West Coast of
Africa, and called "Manillas." In
shape they resemble a horseshoe with
the two extremities fllattened out like
a camel's foot. Being made of solid
copper, three-eights of an inch thick,
they weight over eight ounces each.
In "face value," seven of these queer
colno are equivalent to one quarter, so
that a dollar's worth would be an un
comfortably heavy load. Not only are
these "manillas" used among the na
tives, but white traders accept them
us legal tender for goods sold at the
various stores. At one time this
Strangely shaped money had quite a
large circulation in certain parts of
the coast, but its use in now restricted

"The thing lu .. he
cried. "It's insubordination! I'll have
It suppressed! The army must go on
to gratify public demand. I'll show
the staff that they are not in the
saddle. They'll obey orders!"
He tried to get Lanstron on the long
distance.
"Sorry, but the chief has retired,"
answered the officer on duty sleepily.
"In fact, all the rest of the staff have,
with orders that they are not to be
disturbed before ten."
"Tell them that the premier, the
head of the government, their com
mander, is speaking!"
"Yee, sir. The orders not to disturb
them are quite positive, and as a ju
nior I could not do so except by their
Orders as superiors. The chief, before
retiring, however, repeated to me, in
case any inquiry came from you, sir,
that there was nothing he could add
to the staff's message to the nation
and the army. It is to be given to the
soldiers the first thing in the morn
ing, and he will let you know how they
regard it."
"Confound these machine mindte that
spring their surprises as fully execut
ed plans!" exclaimed the premier.
"It's true—Partow and the staff have
covered everything—met every argu
ment. There is nothing more for
them to say," said the foreign minister.
"But what about the indemnity?"
demanded the finance minister. H®
was thinking of victory in the form
of piles of gold in the treasury.
This question, too, was answered.
"War has never brought prosperity,"
Partow had written. "Its purpose is
to destroy, and destruction can never
be construction. The conclusion of a
war has often assured a period of
peace; and peace gave the impetus of
prosperity attributed to war. A man
is strong in what he achieves, not
through the gifts he receives or the
goods he steals. Indemnity will not
raise another blade of wheat In our
land. To take It from a beaten man
will foster in him the desire to beat
his adversary in turn and 'recover the
amount and more. Then we shall have
the apprehension of war always in the
air, and soon another war and more
destruction. Remove the danger of a
European cataclysm, and any sum ex
torted from the Graye becomes paltry
beside the wealth that peace will cre
ate. An indemnity makas the purpose
of the courage of the Grays in their
assaults and of the Browns in their re
sistance that of the burglar and the
looter. There is no money value to a
human life when it Is your own; and
our soldiers gave their lives. Do not
cheapen their service."
"Considering the part that we played
at The Hague," observed the foreign
minister, "it would be rather incon
sistent for us not to —"
"There is only one thing to do. Lan
stron has got us!" replied the premier.
"We must jump in at the head of the
proceision and receivo the mud or the
bouquets, as it happens."
With Partow's and the staff's ap
peals went an equally earnest one
from the premier and his cabinet. Nat
urally, the noisy element of the cities
was the first to find words. It
shouted in rising anger that Lanstron
had betrayed the nation. Army offi
cers whom Partow had retired for leis
urely habits said that he and Lanstron
had struck at their own calling. But
the average man and woman, in a
daze from the shock of the appeals
after a night's celebration, were read
ing and wondering and asking their
neighbors' opinions. If not in Par
tow's then in the staff's message they
found the mirror that set their own
ethical professions staring at them.
Before they had made up their
minds the correspondents at the front
had set the wires singing to the even
ing editions; for Lanstron had direct
ed that they be given the run of the
army's lines at daybreak. They told
of soldiers awakening after the de
bauch of yesterday's fighting, normal
and rested, glowing with the security
of possession of the frontier and re
sponding to their leaders' sentiment;
of officers of the type favored by Par
tow who would bring the industry that
commands respect to any calling, tak
ing Lanstron's views as worthy of
their profession; of that irrepressi
ble poet laureate of the soldiers, Cap
tain Stransky, I. C. (iron cross), break
ing forth in a new song to an old
tune, expressing his brotherhood ideas
in a "We - have - ours - let - them - keep -
theirs" chorus that was spreading from
regiment to regiment.
This left the retired officers to grum
ble in their corners that war was no
longer a gentleman's vocation, and si
lenced the protests of their natural al
ly in the business of making war,
the noisy element, which promptly
adapted itself to a new fashion in the
relation of nations. Again the great
square was packed and again a wave
like roar of cheers greeted the white
speck of an eminent statesman's head.
All the ideas that had beer, fomenting
In the minds of a people for a genera
tion became a living force of action to
break through the precedents born
of provincial passion with a new pre
cedent; for the power of public opin
ion can be as swift in its revolutions
as decisive victories at arms. The
world at large, after rubbing its fore
head and readjusting Its eye-glasses
and clearing Its throat, exclaimed:
"Why'not! Isn't that what we have
all been thinking and desiring? Only
nobody knew how or where to be
gin."
The premier of the Browns found
himpelf talking over the long distance
to the premier of the Grays in as
neighborly a fashion as if they had
adjoining estates and were arranging
a matter of community Interest.
"You have been so fine in waiving
an indemnity," said the premier of the
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
Grays, "that Turcas suggests we pay
for all the damage done to property
on your Bide by our Invasion. I'm
sure our people will rise to the sug
gestion. Their mood has overwhelmed
every preconceived notion of mine. In
place of the old suspicion that a
Brown could do nothing except with
a selfish motive Is the desire to be as
fair aa the Browns. And the practi
cal way the people look at it makes
me think that It will be enduring.
"I think so, for the same reason,"
responded the premier of the Browns.
"They say it Is good business. It means
prosperity and progress for both
countries."
"After all, a soldier comes out the
hero of the great peace movement,"
concluded the premier of the Grays. [
"A soldier took the tricks with our
own cards. Old Partow was the great
est statesman of us all."
"No doubt of that!" agreed the
premier of the Browns. "It's a senti
ment to which every premier of ours
who ever tried to down him would
have readily subscribed!"
The every-day statesman smiles
when he sees the people Bmile apd
grows angry when they grow anpry.
Now and then appears an inscrutable
genius who finds out what is brewing
In their brains and brings it to a head.
He is the epoch maker. Such an one
was that little Corslcan, who gave a
stagnant pool the storm it needed, un
til he became overfed and mistook his
ambition for a continuation of his
youthful prescience.

Marta had yet to bear the Bhock of
Westerling's death. After learning the
manner of it she went to her room,
where she spent a haunted, sleepless
night. The morning found her still
tortured by her visualization of the
picture of him, irresolute as the mob
pressed around the Gray headquar
ters.
"It is as If I had murdered him!"
she said. "I let him make love to me
—I let my hand remain In his once—
but that was all, Lanny. I —l couldn't
have borne any mora. Yet that wa3
enough—enough!"
"But we know now, Marta," Lan
stron pleaded, "that the premier of
the Grays held Westerllng to a com
pact that he should not return aliv*
If he lost. He could not have woo,
even though you had not helped us
against him. He would only have lost
more liveß and brought still greater
Indignation on his head. His fate was
Inevitable —and he was a soldier."
But his reasoning only racked her
with a shudder.
"If he had only died fighting!" Mar
tar replied. "He died like a rat In a
trap and I —l set the trap!"
"No, destiny set it!" put in Mrs.
Galland.
Lanstron dropped down beside Mar
ta's chair.
"Yes, destiny set It," he said, im
ploringly.
"Just as It set your part for you.
And, Marta," Mrs. Galland went on
gently, with what Marta had once
called the wisdom of mothers, "Lanny
lives and lives for you. Your destiny
is life and to make the most of life, as
you always have. Isn't it, Marta?"
"Yes," she breathed after a pause,
In conviction, as she pressed her moth
er's hands. "Yes, you have a gift of
making things simple and clear."
Then she looked up to Lanstron and
the flame in her eyes, whose leaping,
spontaneous passion he already knew,
held something of the eternal, as her
arms crept around his neck.
"You are life, Lanny! You are the
destiny of today and tomorrow!"

party and have earned the confidence of right-thinking
men of all parties.
Mr. Palmer is now a trusted adviser and powerful friend of
President Woodrow Wilson aqd will continue his legislative lead

McCormick will turn the light of his executive experience
upon the practical problems of the State at Harrisburg. The
crusade for better things, under his hand, will be guided to
success, as Wilson led it in New Jersey.
