Col. Keitt's Broken Yard-Stick, or "swunk
Up" Silver Dollar.

To the Editor of The Herald and
News: My good friend OF the Enoree
Reservation goes Into most elaborate
argument to prove what no one THINKS
of denying; for We all admit that the
standard silver dollar was, prior to
1873, and still is in strictly technical
sense, one of our two standards OF value.
But be overlooks q most essential dlf-
ference between the silver dollar OF TO-
day. and the silver dollar. of our dad
dies" In their day the 4123 grains OF
silver 9.lO fine contained in the dollar,
was of the full value of 100 cents; and
contained in itself, like the gold dollar,
the full intrinsic value that 1t pre-
tended to represent. Even in 1873,
when this pretended ''crime of the
aoesn was enacted-but which IN real
ity was in no sense either criminal or
tricky-the silver dollar was at pre-
MUM of little over per cent. Con-
ssouently none were being coined ana
had not been for years. But since then
a most important change has taken
place. the reasons for which l need not
stop to examine. The price of silver
has declined until this same silver dol.
lar, containing as then Az! grains 9-10
fiue, has now an intrinsic value OF only
about so cents.
How can an intelligent, reasoning
man, such as my friend unquestlonaoly
is, contend that such 3 "swunk up"
dollar still represents the standard
unit of value established by orr an
cestors in 1892? It would be like
contending that sou pound bale
of cotton is still worth $50 because it
was few years ago; or that a broken
yard-stick is still full honest yard
stick. What would my friend think
of the Newberry dry-goods merchant
who undertook 10 measure cloth
for him with a yard-stick broken IN
the middle. contending that it was
still a yard stick because it had been.
Would be not cry fraud, fraud? But
is it not quite as fraudulent for great
and rich government like that of the
United States to issue to the people as
full dollars what are in reality only
half dollars? 1t is Tot fraud to make
fifty cent dollar pay for ore hundred
cents worth of honest labor, or a
hundred cents of honest debt? Gov
ernments ought to be models to their
people of honesty and virtue, instead
of teaching them fraud and cheating.
And such good citizens, as my friend
ought alwsys to be found on the side
of sound, honest and full value money,
which alone conGaces to the prosperity
of any country.
There are, of course, other points of
my friends article open to criticism
and correction. But this one will suf-
fee for the present. CIvIs.

Novelties in Ladies' '%kirts.

The portion of the costume which
seems to be the leading subject of Ell;
quiry at the present moment is the
Skirt. While bodices and sleeves are
still following to some extent the gen.
eral lines of the former season, skirts
are the absorbing theme of interest in
the new importations. Great is their
variety. The question of choice en-
braces an extensive field, both of ex-
treme novelties and simple practical de-
signs. Models to suit every taste and
occasion are illustrated in the popular
Mcdowell Fashion Journals" which
we have at hand. One fiuds, moreover,
in these magazines in their coupon
patterns, a.feature exceedingly conven-
lent for those who desire a cheaper
grade of patterns than the more expen-
sive made up models. Among these
coupon patterns are seen some artistic
and practical skirt designs filling very
appropriately general demand for the
latter. LA Mode de Paris" aud paris
Album Of Fashion" cost $3.50 each per
aunum, or 35 cents per copy. The
French 'Dressmaker" is $500 year or

best home magazine Of its kind, costs
only $3.50 per year, or Is cents per
