inadequate for his use.
Nature, within whose kingdom lie
the fields of all science, has so
constituted her domain that no one

another. The scientist who enters
some of her fields of study must
inform himself upon all.

FREE COINAGE EALLAClES.

The silver monometallists argue that if the government adopts the free and un- limited coinage of silver the price of silver will go up and that the two met als will come to a parity. Their argu- ment is based on the present production of silver. They do not stop to think that an increased demand for silver will like wise increase the production. The silver advocates cannot show that independent action by the United States will cer- tainly achieve the result desired. Even so able an advocate of the fallacies of free coinage as the author of Coins Fi- nancial School' fails at this point, and virtually admits the danger of such course.
 Suppose" said MT Gage, "that after all, the independent action of the United States did not establish the parity be- tween the two metals?"
 The only reply that Coin could make was: "To suppose that such will be the case is to borrow trouble that is not at all likely to occur But if it does, we are more fruitful of resources than are the obstacles insurmountable that may be thrown in our way"
