United States Government World’s Fair Souvenir Coins— The Oficial Souvenir of the Great Exposition 5,000,000 of which were donated to the World’s Columbian Exposition by the Government, are bemg rapidly taken by an enthusiastically patriotic peopie. As there early promised to be a demand for these Souvenirs that would@ender them very valuable in the hands of speculators, the Exposition Authorities decided to place the price at $1.00 for Each Coin and sell them direct to the people, thus realizing $5,000,000, and using the additional money for the further development of the Fair. Considering the fact that there were but 5,000,000 of these coins to be distributed amomg 65,000,000 people, in this country alone (to say nothing of the foreign demand,) and that many have already been taken, those wish- ing to purchase these mementoes of our Country's Discovery and of the grandest Exposition ever held, should secure as many as they desire at once.
