he turned overa50c piece on which the,
Queen's head was printed, and to see
the three initials, and to recognise the
principal part of the breach or stick pin

happiness in this home last Sunday.

After all truth is stranger than fiction.
"They say money talks." The writer was
handed this 50c piece and somehow as I
looked at both sides, I wished that this
particular piece of money would talk,
and tell me where it had been, and what
it had passed for all these weeks, months
and years. There ia some foundation
for imagination here. _
