Silver, in its relative commercial value
to gold, has varied greatly at different
times since the two metals were first
used for coins. In the days of Abraham
the patriarch it was to L; B. G. 1000. it
was 10 to /; B. G. 500, ID to /, and at the
beginning of the Christian era, about
to 1. In the year 500 A. d. it was 18 to
/, in 100 it was to I, and at the time
of the discovery of America only to /.
In the year 1900 gold was only six
times more valuable than the precious
white metal, and within the next 100
years two pounds Of silver could be ex-
changed evenly for one Of gold. In 1916
gold was again on the boom, being 10
times more valuable than its paler broth
er, and in 1925 it was 13 times more val
liable than silver, just as it was 500 years
b. G. At the beginning of the present
century silver was at lower figure than
it had been at any time since the year
500 A. D.--viz, 1898 to /. In 1915 the
ratio commercially of silver to gold was

warnsnr words J,ron ! woman.

Mrs. Jane G.. Austin, who has been
decidedly opposed to the suffrage move
mcnt, writes TO the Boston Transcript:
am really afraid that the inexorable
logic of events is going to lay upon the
already overhurdened shoulders of wom-
en- the aided burden of suffrage
If public officials geserally were wom-
en-, would they play with the lives Of
men and women as gamblers play with
dice? Or If women were voters would
they allow such officials to remain in
power?
A few weeks ago scores of the wards
of neighboring state We're burned to
death because the men in charge Of them
provided maniacs with matches and then
locked them MP without fire escapes.
Would women have created such stu
pendous folly? Or when the crisis cams
would women have lost their heads and
been unable TO devise some means Of ex-
Treating those wretched victimsa Iguess
not.
When political selGshness and greed
become official inhumanity and brutal
ity, it is time for the underlying forces
of our community to rise up and come
to the scont. Nobody, | imagine, doubts
that women, if they choose to assert
themselves, can do anything they see fit
to do, from knitting off the heads of
kings and queens to preventing cruelty
to animals, children and poor old wom-
en-, but it would be so much better, Dye
men, if you would behave yourselves de-
Gently in the position we have conceded
to you and not put all the work of the
common household upon our poor shoul.

THE MOUNTAIN.

From lands of sunshine gay with bloom
We took the northern course and came
To that great city which delights
Grim satire in Seattle's name.
A remnant weak, his people take
The crumbs that from her table fall;
The past Is theirs, the future hers
Who crowds them harshly to the wall.
Proudly she sits upon her hills,
Her various waters cleaning round;
Her snowy crested mountains fair,
Soft mirrored in their blue profound.
But one, the top and crown of all,
High soaring far above the rest,
Hid in impenetrable clouds
His towering head, his ample breast.
But, oh, at length a morning dawned,
One more divine earth never knew.
When better far than tale or dream
The mountain Glove the heavenly blue.
The mountain! All the snowy peaks
- Which mountains seemed the day before,
That day were little hills, so high
We saw the highest climb and soar.
So high! So grandl And yet with an
So sweetly, delicately fair.
We had believed if one had said,
"A dream, phantom of the air"
And as the perfect day went by
More dreamlike still the mountain grew,
As gathering mists, a purple zone,
Around his base their vesture drew
All white and pure from crown TO foot
There fioated in the azure deep
A hill of heaven, mount of God.
1t made our hearts with gladness leap.
The things of sense are types Of soul
How oft for many days the best
Is thick involved in clouds that chill
Mans heart within his lonely breast!
And then there comes day of days.
And floating bright in heavenly air
He sees the mount of God. all white
With fields of faith and founts of prayer.
And by that glorious vision blest
He knows the peace that passeth thought.
God folds him to his heart. His good
Is better than the best he sought.
