A table presented by the Secretary of the
Treasury, showing the amount of money OF
all kinds in circulation each year from 1878
to the present time, is of interest. 1t ap-
pears that the amount of national bank
notes In circulation has decreased during
that period STA 109, 729, of which SS7, 799, ,229
is chargeable to the last year, The with
drawal of bank circulation will necessarily
continue under existing conditions.
1t is probable that the adoption of the
suggestions made by the Controller Of the
Currency. viz: That the minimum deposit
of bonds ior the establishment'of banks be
reduced, and that an issue of notes to the
par value of the bonds be allowed, would
help to maintain the bank circulation.
But, while this withdrawal of bank notes
has been going on, there has been large in
crease in the amount of gold and silver coin

England a vast body of travellers who amuse
themselves during the hours passed on the
train with playing whist. Among these
players there will occasionally be found a
star of the first magnitude. and there will
also be found a great many cranks. Now
the good player will accommodate himself
every time to his partners play, and it would
be the most foolish thing in the world for
him to do otherwise. Sometimes, however,
the difference between the playing of part

exasperated, and gives vent to it, if not in
polite, in forcible manner. Here is a story

everybody says so that has used it). 1t
supersedes everything heretofore used or

like any other starch, as it is made with
pure white wax. It Is the first and only
starch in the world that makes ironing
easy and restores old summer dresses and
skirts to their natural whiteness, and i'm

truth.
