There is good story told recently OF
Baron Rotnschlld, of Paris, one OF the
richest men in the world, which shows
tnat it is not only "money which makes
the mare to co." but "ready money"
On very wet and disagreeahie day, the
Baron Took a Parisian omnibus, on his
way to the BOurse, near which the ma
bob OF Finance" alighted, and was going
away without paying. The driver
stopped him and demanded his lare.
Roth ,child felt in his pocket, but be had
not penny in change. The driver was
very Wroth, swell, what did yon get
in for, il you could not pay? You must.
nave known tnat you had no money"
IL am Baron ROthschildp exclaimed
the great capitalist, land there is my
cardn The driver threw the card into
the gutter. "NeYer heard of you be
tore,n said the driver, t'and L don't want.
to hear Of you again. But | want my.
fare-and must have itP' The great
banker was ia naste. 81 have only an
order tor 10, lllon," be said; "giNe me
change;" and he profered coupon tor
nfty thousand francs. The conductor
stared, and the passengers set up a
noarse laugh. just then an agent
d'Change" came by and the Baron Roth
schild borrowed oil him the six sous. The
driver was nov seized with kind oil
remorsetul respect, and, turning to the
money king, ne said: "H you want ten
francs, sir, don't mind Lending them to
YOU on my own account"

Our Silver Coinage.

1t is obvious that what has come to be
known as the "Silyer Question" is to
enter largely into the financial issues
that sooner OF later must be submitted
to the people of this country for their
decision. Fortunately for fair dis
cussien.of the subject, it is not, as yet,
in any sense partisan issue. 1t re-
mains an open question for every man
to consider irrespective of any political
bias or party predlection.
The question, simply stated, is: Shall
we retain, or shall we abolish, silver as
money? To demonetize it, is to abolish
it as money. To exclude it from its
office Of a leg tender, is to demo netize
it. Whatsoever will not settle balances,
or pay debts, as in the law, is not money
under the law. Whether it be silver, or
gold, taking from it that function, takes
from it its character OF money-it is de-
monetized. Even though we were to re-
tain silver coins as subsidiary alone, for
mere purposes of fractional change, they
do not remain as money; they are merely
'tokens" of exchange, even though made
legal tender to the extent of five dollars.
1t is true that the country suddenly
finds itself under law that demonetizes
silver. That law was enacted three
years ago, when silver was not part Of
our currency in use; and its enactment
was, on that account, almost unnoticed.
1t is but brief section in long law on
the subject Of coinage. The provisions
OF that section (3,511) are scarcely ger
main to the title and purposes Of the
law. 1t nevertheless ordains complete
revolution in our metallic currency, the
lawful money of the nation. 1t declares
that the gold dollar of the standard
weight of 25.s grains shall be the unit OF
value From 1892 till that date, Febru-
airy u, 1873, the silver dollar had been
our unit OF value. This law does more
it not only makes gold instead of silver
the unit of value, but it makes gold the
only legal tender; thus demonetizing
silver at one dash without public atten-
tlon having been drawn to the subject
in the slightest degree. Why Congress
should have enacted bill Of such mo.
mentous import to the finances of the
nation without discussion, is one OIL
those marvels of legislation that 90 tc
show "with how little wisdom the world
is governed"
IL is understood that one JOHN JAY
KNOX, then Comptroller Of the Cur
reney, was the real author Of the bill
that became the law of 1873. Under his
inspiration, and to conform to theo.

LIFE Is LOVE.

Fairy forms In dreamland DWELL
Singing voices sweetly tell,
Life fs love.
Murmuring breezes softly blow.
Cheerrully chanting as they 20,
Life is love.
Nature, in her bright array,
Seems by every sign to say,
Lille is love.
That inner sense we can not name
Our very souls-the truth proclaim,
Lire is love.
Yes, ills spoken from above:
God has told us, "Life is IOve"--
Life Is love.
