OUTFLOW OF GOLD,

The amount of the expectations
of gold during the last 20 months
is unprecedented Since January
| OF last year the gold coin and bull
lion exported from the United
States aggregate about $l69,2S4,-
300, while the importations during
the same period amount to only
$4S, ,S13, 800, which leaves the excess
of exports over imports about $l2O-
40, 800. - Republic.
1t is a frequent goldbug assertion
that gold would leave the country
II we should undertake the free
coinage of silver, II Is leaving the
country, anyway, and no silver Is
being coined to take It's place. The
demand for gold, as the only money
of final account, is increasing more
rapidly than the worlds supply,
The drain upon this country Is con-
stantly becoming larger Two years
ago, according to the official state
ment, there was S60O,00O,OoO OF gold
in this country Since that time
the country's net loss of gold has
been $l2O, 900, 900. How long, at
this rate, before the country's sup
ply Of gold will be e&haustedY Is 1t
any wonder, that within the time
referred to, the government has
been obliged to borrow the enor-
nous sum of $l64,OOO,OO0 OF gold,
and yet is again reduced to the Inn
mlnent necessity of another bond
lssue2 How long can The country
stand the stralnY Is II any wonder
that business is depressed and that
prices are low and unsettled2 What
chance Ia there for prosperity under
such eonditlopsp Why not make
silver carry some Of the burdens OF
business that are now wholly i'm
posed on gold, and thus relieve the
situation. - Guard,

A FEW PROVERBS.

The fool Is his own worst friend
Poverty shared is poverty dou
bled.
Love never dies Of It's own ac
cord.
Gossip is polite name for Sian
der,
People who marry for love are
entitled to It.
Nature always tries to rectify hel
mistakes.
It usually takes more than two tC
get married.
Tomorrow never comes and yes
terday never goes
A woman always thinks 1t takes
at least two to keep a secret
The dishonest mans favoritc
maxim is; Business Is business,
Few men can hope that thell
memory will outlast their tomb
stones,
The married ilIrt Is the most serl
ous argument In favor Of celibacy
A good many people think moth
ing can be a duty that In not dis
agreeable.
In the race Of life every man car
rles little Of some other mans
weight.
Every time there Is wedding
another Sweetest girl IN the world
strikes the toboggan.
The old are prone TO forget that
they we're ever young and the
young that they will soon be old
People may be divided into two
classes those who think they
are happy aud those who hope tC
be,

stay In nights and enjoy his home
than to go out and brag about IT,
