A good deal baa been heard of late years among coin collectors a bout tbe so-called "Blacksmith" to kens of Canada. The unsatisfactory condition of the currency In Cana da up to comparatively recent times explains the reason for the issue of such coins. For many years tbe supply of le gal copper colas bad been altogether inadequate, so that often anything in the shape of a copper passed cur rent.

HOWARD, Commissioner. rilminlolini, n . . . - . . 1 "fa auit; n wuni'vuv , from circulating medum tent, British half pence sent over England A J'ttle later this waa supplemented by a deluge of imported private to kens. Their over-abundance, accord ing to a writer in the Numismatist, soon caused them to be discredited. and stringent means were adopted to prevent further importation of such coin into Canada or its manufacture there. , T But as the necessity for an ade quate supply of small change be came more pressing various ways lor evading the blockade were evolv ed. One of these was by making or importing tokens which bore a daW previous to the date of the edict excluding private coins. Another way which was at one time very preva lent In England was to evade coun terfeiting laws by suppressing the legends and substituting instead some capricious or meaningless legend as "Claudius Bomanus," "Geobgius Ti Rox" "George Rules," Glorius ler Vis" etc. These spurious coins pre sented the same general appearance to the ignore at populace as the regal coinage. A third means and this is char acteristic of tbe Canadian Black smiths, was by counterfeRlne the worn British half pence, the only legal copper coins in circulation, on which the dote, legend and all hut an indistinct outline of the design had been effaced. Although they thus produced a rude coinage these early Canadian coiners showed considerable skill In so making fresh coins bear the ap pearance of an old worn out but still legal currency that they were able to circulate vast quantities of their spu rious Invitations. It la worth noting that the designs on these Blacksmith often face in tbe opposite direction to their protoypes. As an explanation of their name the story is told that a blacksmith of dissolute habits lived at Montreal and when he wished to have a good time struck two or three dollars in coppers and thereby supplied him self with sufficient change to grat ify his wishes." The name was a- dopted by numismatists and applied to the whole aeries. bv the boys and "Mary Had a Lit Lamb" by the rwla owned the way for every body to be reidy to enjoy the vocal solo by sitae Dick- Howell and the instrumental by Miss Emma Purvis. "Jingling Bells," by the chorus and the 'Japanese Drill ' by Rachel Edwards, Pbllalta Landing, Ella and Beatrice Manning and then "Good Night'" sung by all closed a fine programme. The Japanese Drill In costume was beautiful. The girls were appro prist y Gressed for the part and brought down the house showing tbe result of Miss Dicle's careful training.

Dr. Jacques Bertillioa has been col lecting statistic to discover want age is moat favorable to second ven tures in the troubled seas of mat rimony. Moat amazing Is the deduc tion that women whether widows or divorcees, between tbe ages of 20 and 30, are leas inclined to a rep etition of the great experiment than those under 20 or over 30 years. Tbe more youthful widow seems to be the less hopeful. It may be that sentiment is powerful to keep her in the bereaved state. Possibly a widow between 20 and 30 is charming and attractive to such a degree' that so many men pay court to her as to make H impossible for her to choose between them. But once tbe widow passec 30 she apparently feels old enough to select a second partner. la the natural course of human life st would seem that the percentage of widows under 20 must he relatively small. Between 20 and 30 the pro portion will Increase rapidly.

He suggested that we have a "Clean- mg-up wees tor eacn warn in in town, beginning with the First Ward. This Clean ing-up Week should appeal to every citizen as it is for the bene fit and improvement of bis own in dividual premises, as well as for tbe good of the town that this work is being donee. He spoke of the higher work the League could do by converting Tar boro into a clean and healthy town, and thereby preventing so much sick ness among its citizens; for a clean town means a healthy town, and a healthy town means happy cW-ixens. He also warned us against the da.nee.rs which come from the use of fire works on the Fourth of July and at Christmas, and asked our sad towards abolishing a practice which results in so much loss of life and limb throughout the whole country.
