quire the use of money itself is con-
veniently miminlzed Every dollar OF
fixed and staple value has brought the

ishing capacity Of multiplying itself in

a petition, wOrded as follows: "Sirc,
we women Of Galicia, PROSTATE at the

ardent request: At present, whereas
every man, young or old, is liable to
military service, we women, often
more robust than effeminate men,

RETIRE GREENBACKS.

In February, therefore. the situation
was exceedingly critical with a reserve
perilously low and a refusal Of congress-
lonal aid. Everything indicated that the
end Of gold payments by the govern
ment was imminent. The result of prior
bond issues had been exceedingly I'M
satisfactory and the large Withdrawals
Of gold Immediately succeeding their
public sale in open market gave rise to
a reasonable suspicion that a large part
Of the gold paid into the treasury. upon
such sales was promptly drawn out
again by the presentation of United
States notes or treasury notes and found
its way to the banks of those who had
only temporarily parted with it in the
purchase of bonds. In this emergency.
and in view of its surrounding perplexi-
ty it became entirely apparent to those
upon whom the struggle for safety was
devolved not only that our gold reserve
must for the third time in less than
thirteen months, be restored by another
issue and sale Of bonds, bearing a rate

TALK ON STANDARDS.

There is a vast difference between a
standard Of value and a currency for
monetary use. The standard must ue-
cessarily be fixed and certain. The cur
rency may be in diverse form and vari-
Gus kinds. No silver standard country
has gold currency in circulation but
an enlightened and wise system of f.
nance secures the benefits of both gold
and silver as currency and circulating
medium by keeping the standard stable
and all currency at par with 1t. Such
a system and such a standard also gives
free scope for the use and expansion OF
safe and conservative credit so indispen
sible to broad and growing commercial
transactions and so we'll substituted
for the actual use of money.
Ifaffixed and staple standard is main
