day OF more than 500, 900, and a gain
Of nearly S5,OOO,OOO during the past
three weeks. The fact that Ameri-

ton Of gold exports and the fact that
the west is receiving large quantities
Of money from the east, accounts in a
large measure for the building up Of

Return of the Earrinn

The returning wave of early Vic. torian incongruity has brought the re- vival of that relic of barbarism, the earring, which the common sense of the last years had almost stamped out. During the last two seasons even the insignificant earstud had ceased to find favor with the fashionable, but now the ominous presence of orna- ments in the jewellers windows for that feature which nature never in- tended for adornment suggests that while the heavy pendants with which our grandmothers disfgured their ears may not again challenge public favor the revived earring will exceed the di- mensions of the single stone, simply set, now worn.

The driver thought the man was mad ana was about to tell him to get out, when the professor, espying student, called out to him, and said: Just tell the man where I live" Neanders sis ter, who kept house for him, took fresh apartments nearer the universi- ty, as she thought the distance too great for her brother. A few days after their removal he complained of the long and tiring walk, and it then turned out that he had always gone first to the old lodgings and so round to the
