The struggle for Gold.

If the Russian government follows the
advice of the Rothchilds to defer the con.
version of lis bonds, the financial centres
of the world may be relieved OF the strain
imposed by the present struggle for gold
la struggle which has withdrawn more
than thirty lailiOn dollars form this centre
since The beginning Of the present year
1t has been feaed that The German
holders of the Russian bonds might refuse
to convert freely and demand the redemp-
ton of their bonds, and therefore the
Russian government has been increasing
the amount of gold to its credit at the
crentre, The late action of the Bank OF
England in advancing the price Of gold
was probably inspired by the fact that,
aside from the C., 100000 borrowed ut the
time of the November panic, Il borrow
ed IL 100000 from the Russian finance
minister on six months treasury notes
which are now maturing, anu the Russian
government can take the gold If necessary
II the Russian government holds off, a
ereat strain will be lifted from the whole
financial world.

The water was given him, and with his
eyes closed he remained so still that had

wasted, she would have thought him again

TIE PEppLER,s Joke.
And the way In Which it Was Turned on
Him.


Here Is a good story that somebody has
been telling to one of the New Y ork papers:
One day tin peduler, with an assortment
of knick-knacks, arrived at a certain vii
lage in Connecticut and called ut one of
the houses to sell his wares. After dis
posing of a few articles to the lady of the
house who was surrounded 10y regular
swarm of children, she declared her in
ability to purchase more for the want of
money.
but, ma am, said the peddler, "ain
you got any rags ~
None to sell, " vas the reply
well. returned the p2ddler, you
seem to have plenty of children. Will you
sell me one for tinware?"
What will you give. sir?'
Ten dollars ma am.
In good tinware?'
"Sartin, ma am the best
"Well, sir, it's bargain, said the
lady, "and you may take your pick OF the
lot
The peddIer, surprised that his offer
was accepted, yet confident that mother
would not part with her child, selected a
bright looking boy, placed hi n in the cart,
and supplied the lady with tins until the
sum of $40 was made up.
Then the peddler, certain that the
mother would hasten to reclaim the child
as soon as she saw him actually starting
off, mounted the seat beside the little fell
low, who, pleased with the idea Of having
a ride was growing Justify, and rode off
at a slow pace, expecting at each moment
TO hear the lady calling to him TO bring
l. IL l., Ilt,f, pul Da
hear. After proceeding short distance
the pedder began to see that he had made
a bad bargain and turned his horses head
again toward the lady's house.
The lady had just finished ornamenting
her closet shelves with the tin when the
peddler entered.
"Well." said he 81 don't think the
boy will do, after all. think you had
better take him back and let me have my
ware.
mo sir. the bargain was fair, said the
lady, land you shall stick to it, whether
you wish to or not. y
Surprised at this, the peddler ex-
claimed:
"Why, ma am, how can you think
of parting with your boy to an utter stran-
ger?'
Bless your soul, mister, have no emil
dren, returned the lady The children
YOU see here are pauper children, and, as
YOU appear to be a good man ! will glad
iy sell several more Of them, if you wish,
at $40 a head.
