made in that country have proved that
roasted coffee is one of the most power-

ounces of fresh coffee. The way in
which coffee is used as a disinfectant is
by drying the raw bean, then pounding

FACTS ABOVT Coins AND COINAGE.
Some facts of interest not generally
known were presented recently by Mr.,
B. Y. Head. assistant keeper Of coins in
the British museum, in paper read bt-
fore the Bankers institute. London.
Twice only in the history Of the human
race was there an effort made TO intro
duce theoretically perfect system of
weights and measures. The Babylon
ians were the first to make the attempt
to refer all the designations of quantity
and extension to one and tie same unit
Not less than three thousand years
elapsed before the next experiment in
the same direction was made, and the
credit of it is due to the French. With
all the agencies at the command of the
people in the nineteenth century OF the
Christian era, the introduction of the
metric system into general use has been
painfully slow, and it may easily he con-
ceived why the Babylouians did not
make their unit standard permanent
success. As to the coming of money,
tie LyndianS are believed to have in
vented that art about 100 B. {. The
earliest ceins were composed of elect
rum, Il natural combination of gold and
silver found in the washingS of the riv-
cr Pactolus. This coinage lasted for
about 1jO years, when Crmsus introduced
a bi-metalic currency of gold and silver,
which became general throughout Asia
until the time of Alexander the Great.
The ratio between gold and silver was
fixed at l to II. ,. European Greece
had a silver mono-metallic currency un-
til the discovery OF the rich gold mine
ut Phlippi in the reign Of Philip Of
Macrdon, when the currency of that
~ -
up the price Of gold as compared with
siiver--a device which proved futile.
Alexander returned to the old system,
but though gold coins were still made
they were regarded simply as b II on, and
mUnUmetalism. henceforth, was univeT-
sal even in Asia. The change from a
double to Il single standard in Asia was
rendered possible by the sudden depre-
citation OF gold consequent upon Alex
ander'S dispersion of the boarded gold
of the kings of Persia.

TIE OLDEST MONUMENT IN THE
WORLD.-The Ashmolean Museum, ut
Oxford, contains one of the oldest mon
umentS of civilization in the world if,
indeed, it is not the very oldest. This
is the Intel stone of tomb which
formed the last resting place OF an OFF,
Ger who lived in the time of King Sent.
of the second dynasty, whose date is
placed by NJ. Marictte more than six
thousand years ago, The stone is COW
cred with that delicate and finished
sculpture which distinguished the early
periods Of Egyptian history, and was
immeasurably superior to the stiff and
conventional art of the latter ages of
Egypt which we are accustomed to see
IN our European museums. But it is
also covered with something more pre-
cious still thar sculpture-with hero
glyphics which show that even at that re-
mote time Egyptian writing was a COM
plete and finished art, with long ages of
previous development lying behind it.
The hIerOglyphic Characters are already
used, not only pictorially and ideo-
graphically, but also to express svllables
and alphaGetic letters, the name of the
X ing, for instance, being spelled alpha
betically. In the hands of the Egyp-
tians writing never made any further
progress. With the fall of what is call
cd the Old Empire (abOut b. c. 3JOO)
the freshness and expansive force of the
people passed away. Egyptian life and
thought became fossiliZed, and through
the long series of centuries that follow
ed Egypt resembled one OF its own
munlmies, faithfully preserving the
form and features of past age. and of
a life which had ceased to beat IT, its
veins. Until the introduction of Chris
. I. 4.
the Egyptian writing was the invention
OF a running hand, which i'm its earlier
and simpler form is called hieratic. and
in its later form. dOmotic
