since last year, and yet it does not appear IN
daily use. The obvious conclusion IS that mill
ions of people have chosen to keep what 'hey
get of this kind of money, lest it should present.
" become impossible to get gold. There are
about twenty millions of wage-earners IN the
country whose wages are at least two hundred
millions every week. Though they necessarily
spend most of their earnings for their hvihS
and the support of others, yet the sums tneS
NAV save whenever they please to do so be-
come enormous 1t is easy to suppose that Il
twentieth part of the earnings are saved, ana
in whatever kind of money the wage-earhef
pleases Why, then, do people put away ohe
kind of money they preGer-the only kind that
is accountable in all other countries as well
The obvious reason is that Congress is talking
of a change in the character of the currency, so
that the dollars in circulation shall not be
worth as much as they are now. When Con-
eress ceases to talk about making poorer money
larger part of the money now in use will flow
freely into circulation.

II is no small undertaking that has been
entered upon by, the Commission TO Promote
Uniformity of Legislation in the United States.
The importance of the subject will not be
undelcstmated by any one who takes the pains
10 examine it even cursorily. The question OF
divorce laws will demand much attention, the
uSageS in the various States being so widely at
variance. 1t is to be hoped that all the States
will cooperate, at least to the extent OF provid-
ing similar commissions. National cOnven-
ton TO consider the subject in all its aspects is
a probability of the near future.

Mayor Chapin's fourth message-and presum-
ably his last-to the Brooklyn Board Of Alder
men is Just such document as might be eX-
pec;ed from any man of intelligence who might
occupy the Mayors chair. There is nothing in
il original suggestive or striking. Regarding
the water scandal, the judicial hearing on which
was in progress when the message was made
public, Mr.. Chaplin naturally and not improper
ly maintains silence. The general condition of
the city financial and otherwise is pronounced
good. Regarding the Bridge the message has
considerable to say, though, strangely enough,
Mr.. Chaplin does not renew the recommendation,

Although the City Council Of Toronto Canada
has voted not allow the running Of street cars on
Sunday in that city, the question does not appear
TO be entirely settled The principal argument
advanced in the Council was that the running OF
street cars on Sunday is contrary TO the Mosaic
law. But a large number of citizens believe that
this cannot be clearly proved, or at any rate, tha'
a Board Of Aldermen is not competent 10 pass Oh
such a question. This seems to be taclty adj
mited by the Toronto Ministerial Association,
which, in commencing the action Of the Council,
declares that a Sunday car service is WORK
neither of necessity nor of mercy in Toronto. ms
is undoubtedly good ground 10 take on the ques-
ton for il is one that the average citizen can
appreciate and understand, and which can ne
easily settled without any resort to learned eN-
egesis The opponents of Sunday street-cars de-
clare that they are the champions Of morality nut
The Toronto World shows that Toronto, which
has no Sunday cars. has higher percentage of
criminal convictions than five other Canadian
cities in which there are Sunday cars.

The Revised ApOcrypha.
ADVANCE SHEET.

Now it came to pass In those days. that
the mugwump joined himself and all his
strength, unto the faction Of the Demos,
and they fell upon tile Publicans and
grievOusly smote them ard drove them
from the high places, and the Demos and
the Mugwunp divided the spoil.
And about this time there rose up In
Baxter certain sons of Belial. giving them
selves out to be- Great Profts,-and be-
cause of the swelling words they were had
IN honor of the people and highly exalted.
But it came to pass, in the day OF their
power. that they oppressed the people;
laying heavy burdens on them and spoil
ing them of their treasure.
Then was heard u mighty cry, In that
land, for one to deliver the people from
the hands Of these great profits, but no
man dared to speak against them or OPP
pose them.
Then, because the peoples cry was
grevous, there rose up one, POlster, and
spake on this wise: IF put forth my
hand against these profits who have waxed
fat by oppression, and If show unto you
their power, t0 be vain thing and their
words lies, will We rise against these profits
and east off their yokeg" And all the
people answered, "What thou sayest, that
will we do"
Then arose POlster and girded himself
and showed unto all the people that these
were FALSE PROFITS, full of lies and deceit;
and all the people rose as one man and
cast them out, and POlster they chose to
be the ONE PROFIT of the city.
And the rest of the acts of POlster and
all that he did, unto this day, are they not
set forth clearly by his scribes and told
by his men servants and maid servants
who sell his wares unto the people at the
street that is called Military.
