Reasoning upon the basis Of the Ole

to observe that a woman was qualified
for any Office in which her soul and

Manufacture OF God Money In China.
"a correspondent Of the North CAiIao
Herald, writing from the interioro
IKiangsu province, mentions that one
Eof the industries there is the mann
fracture Of mock money for Offering ito

burnt sham paper money but in these

I Hangchow, and other places have
come to the conolusion thatsdollara
are more handy to the ghosts than
fclumsy paper money Hence they

cestors and departed friends with
mock dollars. These are onlyShali
1.-THE size Of real dollars, but there ap-

the dead thanit there: e:isain cheating the
Living. Besides, the deceased are moi
supp pdsed to know. the difference, }for
many Of them departed thislife before
silver dollars were imported into
China. A hundred mock Carolus dol
liars, done p in boxes, are sold for34
cash. The operation Of making this
money is interesting. First Of all
There are blocks Of tin which aretmelt-
led down and then poured between
tboards lined with Chinese paper, and
when the upper board is pressed down
:on the lower, q thickness Of tin re,
mains. This is next cut up into
strips four.inches long, one wide, and
an eighth Of an inch thick. Some
ten5of these strips are placed evenly
together, one on top Of the other, and
one end is held between the fingers,
Ewhen the workman proceeds to ham
smer them out till he has beaten then
so fine that they are now three feet
long and a foot broad, and SO thin that
they are not thicker than the thinnes'
spaper. This is next pasted on com.

done, boy takes the cut-out pieces
in hand and with two dies, one repre-
,senting the one side and the other the
reverse, hammers impressions Of dol
lars on them, and the money is ready
for use.
1 Another very curious instance o.
the practice Of cheating the gods il
recorded in the same journal, but from
quite different part Of the country
1t appears that districts Of the An

by an epidemic, SO that in many
places the people were unable to at
