So far as is known, the Lydlnns, says Herodotus, first Introduced gold and silver coin. The invention was not far to -eek. Treasure came to be deposited fur safety in the temples, where it was consecrated to the care of the divinity by being Impressed with a badge or symbol. The sacred sym bol being accepted as guarantee of vnlue-, the pieces of metal so Imj ssed found easy circulation. The earliest Lydlun coins extant, deriving, probably from the reign of Gyges (about 700 B. 0.)( are bean-shaped lumps of native Lydlan gold, blenched with silver. Each coin bears on its obverse the figure of a lion and on Its reverse t lie impress of the nail-liead serving to keep the metal in place, while being struck. From Lydla the one-sided coin spread throughout the coasts and ls lunds of the Aegean sea, each city Is suing coins bearing the symbol of its divinity. In Greece the earliest coins of silver, with the figure of the tor toise on the obverse, are said to have been struck by Pheldon of Argos. To Solon, about MM) B. C, Is ascribed the Introduction into Athens of the tetra draehm, on its obverse the head of Athene, on Its reverse an owl. Sparta enjoyed all to Itself the luxury of a purely iron coinage. The Greek coins from 480 to 300 B. C. marked a great advancement In the way of art, and Anthenlan money was the chief medi um of exchange during this period. Other nations later adopted their own coinage, which has continued to Im prove with the advance of civilization.

It may mean the difference between life, hope, strength and al most certain death. During a three-Inch snow fall In Kara on October 30. 1920, fifty thous aid Armenian men were stripped of everything by the Invading army, to be driven Into the plain unclad. New Day for Army Wife. The lot of the army wife Is a hard one and unless It Is made easier the army system cannot endure, satd Brig. Gen. Clarence R. Kd wards. "These wives and daughters of sol diers," he said, "have patted their hus bands and fathers on the back and sent them to war without a murmur. They have followed the flag from one place to another, patched and schemed, frozen on one side and roasted on the other from garrison stoves, put up with all scrts of hardships, and never found fault. "Bat things are a little different now. They each have a vote and they can reai-ti this system through thslr representatives In congress. If can tonments are not made at least com fortable for women of the army, It Is my opinion that the system cannot en-dare1." truce. The one stnin on tills custom was that the queen-dowager of Na varre was persunded to go to Paris to attend the marriage of the king of Navarre, by the embassage of a pair of gloves, and. unhappily, on the morn ing of the ceremony, met her death by means of poisoned gloves. Henry Gusey, brother-in-law of W. P. Hawley of the Hawley Pulp & Paper company, of Oregon City, was injured seriously in an automobile ac cident on the Pacific highway four miles south of that city. He suffered severe cuts about the head and pos sibly a fractured skull. The Pacific highway through Ore gon, from Portland to the California line, is now in as good condition as it is likely to be at any time this year. At present there is no place on the highway where even the Inex perienced motorist could have any trouble. Construction work however, wiii begin soon, causing rough detours In places.
