WORLD'S FAIR SOUVEIRS.
HOW YOI- CAN OET ONE OF T1IE COL
UMBIAN HALF DOLLARS. . ,
The World's Fair souvenir coins
are "going ; like hot cakes," and
those who want to get one or moi of
thcra vrill have to bestir themselves
or they will be too late, The desire
for one of these mementos of the
Exposition seems to be almost as
universal as is the interest, in the
Exisition itself and orders for
them have been sent in from all
parts of the United States x and also
from foreign countries;
This souvenir half dollar, it iax re
ported from Washington, will be
the most artistic coin ever Tssacd
from the mint On the abverse side
will appear the head of Columbus,
designed from the Lotto portrait,
and surrounding it the words, "Col
umbian Exposition, Chicago. 1892."
On the reverse side will appear
a caravel, representing Columbus'
lla-ship,and beneath it? two hemis
pheres. v Above the caravel will be
"United States , of America" and
beneath the hemispheres, "Colum
bian half . Dollar. There is no
doubt that this coin wiirbe regarded
as the most distinctive and highest
prized cheap souvenir of the World's
Fair.' : .
All of these souvenir coins, except
Cve, are being .sold; at a uniform
price of one dollar each. For the
first coin erluck otf $10,000 has al
ready been, offered,! and various
.prices have been bid for the 400th,
1492d, 1802d and the last coin.
Desiring that these souvenirs be
discributsd as widely as possible
among the people and that all ir
respective ; 'of locality, have an
equal chance to obtain them, the
Exposition authorities have sought to
prevent syndicates and others from
tuirrihuftinor Infer ft nU&ntitea and thus
t O D
cornering" the sale. On the
contrary, they have arranged to
supply banks, business booses
and individuals in part sv, of
. the country with as many as tfcey
may desire to distribute among
tbeir patrons, customers or friends.
They require only that the orders
must be for fifty coins, some multiple
of fifty, and that the order be accom
panied by the cash, at the rate of
one dollar for each coin. A great
many banks and business firms have
gladly complied with these condi
tions and ordered each from 50 to
20.000 of the coins.
Notwithstanding these conditions
have bjenxwi(Uly published, still a
vast number of inquires by letter has
been received at Exposition head
quarters asking how thevcoins may
be obtained. The best way is to get
them through locals banks, alkof
which are no doubt willing to ac
commodate in that way their patrons
and the residents ofj the city or town
iu which Hhcy are doing business!'
If however, for any rcascn it is de
sired to obtain themother wise, the
J . v., .
proper method is to form a club of
subscribers for fifty coins, or some
multiple of fifty, and select some one
member of the club to send on the
order and money and to distribute
the coins when received. Orders
I!'.'..
should ha addressed to A. F. Sec
lcrgcr. Treasurer World's Colum.
bian Exposition, Chicago.
It is probable that the coins will
not-be readv for distribution until
some timei in December. Rut the
T lers are being sent in rapidly,
and will be filled in the order of
being received. Therefore it is iui
lorlant that all who desire coins
suouui put in their orders as soon as
possible.

The Ucaan Mind.
How much to be wandered at is
the human mind ? How mysterious
its operations! How astonishing its
rest Its! The body, however beauti
ful, is the earth ; its sphere of action
is limited and. circumscribed ; it has
speed of feet but no wings "with
which.tofly; it may reach tber sum
mit of the loftiest mountain, but it
can rise no higher. Bat what can
limit the essence of the human
mind ? On the wings of the morninz
it flies to meet the sun at its risinz.
follows it in its coarse through- the
heavens, and watches it to the mo
ment in wbich with its say, it bids
the world farewell. And when
nightthrows it mantel over all things,
it follows each star along its path of
light numbers the myriad host, - and
chases the comet in its eccentric
flight. Turned to earth, it pene
trates her darkest abodes, walks
among her hidden fires, plunges into
the) 'depths of ocean and makes com
pnnions of the deep. Standing on
the present, it looks back upon the
past, contemplates the future. It
holds converse with the men of
other days loaded with the riches ol
of the past, it goes to work for the
present and future How mysterious
and bow grand are its operations.
