Occasions Which Make Silence a Sacrament Thero was a whole world of wis dom In the worOs a wise man of old in the ayes of faith ascribed to bin Creator: "He still then and know that I am GoJ !" A later philoso pher has remarked that jio two men can be said to be truly friends unless they are content to bask In each other's company without ex pression of words. Thero are oc casions when eilenco Is tho sacra ment of faith and reverent Joy, the seal nnd sign of a living union with the Infinite and confident fellow ship wllh our fellow man. It Is In the practice of rhis silence that we leuru how to discipline life, nnd recognize tho profanity of the glib commonplaces of mere passliifi cfintpnnionslilp, of) formal religion and the useless volubility of con troversy. We refrain from words because they Are Inadequate to ex press our experience, nnd tlie cer titude of faith nnd confidence sur passes the powers of speech.

Everybody's Magazine Forgeries t t Italy hns rather a bad record for forgeries. It was here that the Odessa "Hunger" forgeries and the "Heavers" of Azerbaijan began their circulation. It was an Illegal Italian concern, too, that printed the endless Italtnn colonial forge' ries, which are sometimes so clever that even .experts have failed to detect 'the difference. Perhaps the boldest effort of forgery was that of a-South American named Col lins, who, before the police arrest ed htm, hnd invented and printed an entirely new series of Paraguay stamps in value from l to iui pesos. These were sent out In large quan tities to dealers all over the- world, and thousands were duped before tho Paraguay government disowned the stamps.
