Is there such a thing as a truly ! beautiful coin in the United I States currency? I saw displayed in a New York shop window a coin that is really a thing of beauty. It is an authentic Span ish gold doubloon. Another beau tiful coin in the same display was one of the celebrated "nieces of eieht" so freauently referred to in tales of piracy. The only truly beauuiui piece oi United States currency I have seen so far is the S20 cold piece designed by St. Gaudens, which was withdrawn from circulation some years ago. Among the Married A Baltimorean wants to know how she can stop -her hus band from referring to her as his "ball and chain." Very simple problem. All she has to do is to refer to him as her "ball and chain." As for example, when he is seen approaching at a cocktail party or similar gath ering she should comment: "Well, here comes my ball and chain." That's a sure fire cure. Has been thoroughly checked and tested. . As, It Was When George Jessel and Wal ter Winchell were around 11, they joined up with another kid name Jack Wiener to form a singing trio which performed at a moving picture theater in Har lem. They were billed as "The Three Little Boys With the Big Voices." I don't know what be came of Jack Wiener.

Wife The ninth Mrs. Thomas Man ville, the former Anita Roddy- Eden, is reported to have -done very well as a night spot attrac tion in London. She was paid $1,500 a week. The nmth Mrs Manville told reporters she was extremely pleased with the opportunity of earning some money. She said, "Tommy only pays me $280 a week and that is hardly enough for a girl." Please Not Do, you know a 15 year, old divorcee? There are about 250 15-year-old wives divorced every year in the United States. Three hundred and forty married wom en of 15 years of age anually become widows in this country. Every year here nearly 15,000 girls of 15 years are married. Asides Those who should know claim the best salesmen and insurance agents are those in the 45 year old to 60 year old age group... Am asked . the real name of George Burns, the comic actor, of the team of Burns and Allen. It is Nathan Birnbaum. Inciden tally, the professional name used by his whimsical partner is her own. She was christened Grace Ethel Cecil Rosalie Allen. Progress My progress continued to astonish me. Now I have a reader in Menocqua, Wis. He says his uncle, Edward Schilling, who is 87, still has all his natural teeth. Am ' also informed that another Wisconscnian is equally fortunate. This is Dr. Arthur Jennings of Milwaukee, who is 88. Doctor Jennings has had the benefit of some expert knowl edge in preserving his teeth. He is a dentist. Come to think of it, how about dentists? Do they keep their natural teeth longer than the average .person? I'll have to get .some of the dental nurses among our readers to check on this. . Mother Here Mrs Florence Smith. Detroit.
