mits smallpox patients TO walk abroad

and effective remonstrance? We pre-
sumo the hadji who dies OF cholera

There are ll9, 900, 900 old copper
pennies somewhere. Nobody knows
what has become OF them. except
that once in a while a single spcci-
men turns up in change. A few years
ago 4, 500 900 bronze 2-cent pieces
were set afloat Three million OF
these are still outstanding. Three
million 3-cent nickel pieces are scat
tered over the United States, but IL
is very rarely that one is seen. Or
500 half-cents, which correspond in
value TO English farthings, not one
has been returned TO the Government
for recoinage, or is held 10y the treas
ury. Congress appropriates from
800, 600 20 $3.50, 600 yearly for recoin-
ing the uncurrent silver coins now in
possession OF the treasury. These are
mostly half-dollars, and are not circu-
lated because there is no demand for
them. Not long ago the stock OF
them amounted TO S26, 600, 900, but
IL is only half that now. The money
set aside for recoining Is not intended
TO pay for the cost OF the minting
but is required TO reimburse the treas
ury of the United States on account
of the loss in weight which the silver
pieces have suffered by abrasion. This
loss amounts TO $50 on every 81, 900,
and has TO be made good In order 10

Coal Around the Horn.

That there could be any profit In
shipping coal from the Atlantic coast
TO San Francisco does not seem TO be
among the possibilities, especially In
view OF the long voyage Of about H.,
900 miles around the Horn. Yet
there is quite large traffic Of this
kind, and, according TO the Hartford
Times, ii is growing, despite the
competition OF Australian coal
brought across the Pacific by English
ships and also OF coal from the Pacific
coast itself, only few hundred miles
north Of San Francisco. II the lat
ter were Of satisfactory quality IL
would naturally hold the market, but
il is far from equal TO the anthracite
coal OF the Atlantic coast for house
hold use or in steam-making quail
ties TO the bituminous coal which is
in demand for the numerous steam
ship lines plying on the American
coast or crossing the broad Pacific to
China and Japan. For this reason
there is market for our Atlantic
coast coal even at prices which en-
abse the dealers TO pay freight
charge Of $3.50 10 &c per ton from
Baltimore to San Francisco. Eight
American ships OF large size, ranging
in carrying capacity from ], 500 TO
3, 900 tons each, have been chartered
at the above figures TO load at Balti-
more for San Francisco and other
Pacific coast ports this fall. The
largest OF them, the Aryan, fine
ship recently launched near Bath,
Ne, will take large cargo. 1900
tons. The other ships are also OF
Maine build, most OF them stanch
old crafts which are no strangers to
the tempestuous seas Of the Cape.
The outward run will be 100 days or
more. for they are built for carrying
large cargoes rather than for speed,
as were the famous clippers OF thirty
year. ago. When the California
trade was at its height speed was
everything, and the crack flyers OF
the packet lines furled their wings
within the Golden Gate seventy-five
or eighty days from Sandy Hook.

SHORT WORDS ARE eEsr.
The Peculiar Charm Of IN miterste serv
ant Girls letter.

The Peculiar Charm Of IN miterste serv-
ant Girls letter.
The Independent tells a story OF a
servant girl, who, though untaught
and unused to writing. sent &C her
folks letter SO simple and artless In
style that all who read IL gave her
the warmest praise. When asked
how il was that she who had little
education wrote so plain and good a
letter, and one so easily understood,
she replied:
well. YOU see, I've not much learn
ing myself, nor have my folks, and to
make il easy for them l took the
short and easy words that / knew
they would understand"
II was even so. On examination.
the letter was found TO be almost
wholly filled with words OF one or two
syllables 1t was this that made il a
model of style.
Instead Of the use OF stilted
language being the proof OF literary
superiority, il is more often the result
OF ill-breeding and ignorant vanity.
1t is not often the college-bred man
who talks as IL he had swallowed a
dictionary, and all the long words
stuck in his throat and came out in
his speech. There is no better model
OF style than the King James trans
lation OF the Bible and the works Of
Shakespeare. In both the short plain
words outnumber those that are
longer and OF Latin or Greek origin.
This is true also OF John Bunyan.
Benz Franklin, and Abraham
Lincoln. All these used plain,
homely words that anybody could un-
derstand. The late Ex-Governor Hor-
alto Seymour OF New York, made IL
his practice after writing anything to
60 over the manuscript and change
all the long words for short ones with
the very same meaning. He said
that in this way he became used 10
thinking more clearly than he could
by using longer words
There should be no SET rule To
write only short words, else the com.
position will seem strained, though
the ideas may be clearly presented.
/ 1t is with words as with sentences.
A change from long TO short gives
variety and elegance OF style, This
Is one OF the secrets OF Macaulay's
| interest. Those who examine his
writing will find after very long SEN
tences one or two that are short and
crisp. 1t makes variety in the style
which causes Macaulay TO be a favor

and freshness OF thought
The labor OF writing is made need.
lessly hard by those unaccustomed TO
/ it. Having first thought or fact
worth printing, write il simply in the
words that come most easily TO the
tongue and you will not be very far
wrong. The ambitious attempt at
display repels, especially if IL leads
TO loading writing with words not
generally understood The rule OF
the Apostle Paul in this respect is a
good one, as his epistles are models
