SILVER AND GOLD,
Interesting Facts Brought Out at the
Treasury.

WASHINGTON, d. G. July 16.-The
Treasury Department has resumed
the issue of gold certificates, which
had been suspended during the per-
iod when the treasury gold reserve
was below 500, ,000 Since June
% last, when the gold reserve again
became intact, the Treasury has is
sued about 5000, 600 gold certificates
on gold presented mostly at United
States mints.
There are now outstanding $48,-
$4,000 in gold certificates, with
$l72,98O in the Treasury the re-
mainder being in circulation.
Gold certificates are regarded as
the most convenien form of gold
money, and most Of the certificates
are held by national banks as part
OF the lawful reserve.
Silver certificates are in circula,
ton to the almost complete exclus-
ION of the silver dollars, as the gen

New Professions Open to Women.

A ~well-known minister of Somerville
recently said TO the Journal that he
could not understand why women did
not take up the study of architecture.
"A female architect" said he, would
be sure TO put a closet somewhere near
the sink, and thus save a thousand steps
in a day" He might have added that
she would have put closets i'll every
room in the house. and every one in a
convenient place. Here is a line of
work which is specially adapted to
women, for they are naturally careful
in details, are generally artistic, and
could "learn the business as well as a
man. WHY not become architects?
Surely the Woman's building at the
Worlds Fair did not suffer by COMPARE
son, in IA architectural sense, with its
neighbors.
One of the most successful women in
Boston is a dentist. A few years ago
she graduated at the head of her class,
and the only woman in it. and now she
has a practice which gives her an in
come up in the thousands.
Druggists who will say anything on
the subject are obliged to admit that
ome are admirably fitted to that
work. and already there are about 500
successful female druggists in the United
States. OF course there are many kinds
of work for which a woman is totally
untitled. Her physical strength is not
so great. but where brain power, en-.
durance and patience count in the tigh,
for success she stands shoulder TO Shout.

Monsters that Take the Tenderest Care
of the Mshout's Children.

Weakness appeals powerfully to the
friendly protection Of the strong. and
even among brutes-at least. the nobler
kinds-the appeal is not often in vain.
In the curious relations between mon
ster and midget we not unfrequently
see the fable of the hon and the mouse
repeated without words. There is
nothing by any means uncommon or
incredible in the stories which have been
reported about the children Of a mahout
being cared for by the mahout's ele-
plant.
The whole family Of the mohout be-
come, as it were, parasites to the ele-
plant, by whom they earn their living.
| have seen a baby placed 10y its mother
Systematically under the elephants care,
aud within reach Of It's trunk, while the
mother went TO fetch water or 10 get
wood or material TO cook the family
dinner. No jackal or wolf would be-
likely to pick up and carry off a baby
who was thus cOniided TO the care Of an
elephant; but most people who have
lived life in the jungle know how very
possible it is for a jackal or a wolf TO
carry of a baby when lying in a hut
when the mothers back is turned.
The children thus brought up in the
companionship Of a elephant become
familiar with him, and take all kinds Of
liberties with him, which the elephant
seems to endure on the principle that it
does not hurt him, while it amuses the
child. You see a little naked black
child, about two feet high, standing on
the elephants bare back, and taking il
down TO the water To battle, shouting all
the time in the most unbecomiug terms
of native abusive language.
On arriving at the water the elephant.
ostensibly in obedience 10 the child's
command, lies down and enjoys HIM
self, just leaving a part of his body. like
q small island, above water, on whiSh
the small child stands and yeils, and
yells all the more if he has several COM
p~anions of his own age, also in charge
OF their elephants, all wallowing in the
water around him. If the child slips
off his island. the elephants trunk
promptly replaces him in safety. The
little urchins, as they grow up, become
first mates to mahouts, and eventually
arrive at the dignity of being mahouts
themselves .-PtttSburg Dispatch.

The Percentage OF wrongdoers,

l crossed on one of the big Atlantic
liners lately with 800 other saloon pas
seagers. They were naturally people
of intelligence and presumably of easy
circumstances. Yet at least half O
those people were planning to rob ouI
government of money by contrivine
plans to avoid paying duties truly owed.
To do this all of them had to break our
laws and in most cases had in addition
to lie deliberately.
Many OF them were planning to &C
complish this theft by the bribery OF
the custom house inspectors. thus not
merely making themselves thieves, but
bribing other lei to do wrong. In
this city l can show you blocks so dense.
ly inhabited that they are an election
district themselves. Blocks in which
twenty people live and sleep in a single
year after year, where the birth
of a little life into the world means that
all must eat less and be less warm.
But l cannot find in the poores,
and vilest part Of the city any block
where the percentage Of liars and
thieves and bribe-givers is as large as
was that among the first-c!ass passen.
gers of that floating palace. Each con.
dition Of society has its W misdoings,
and. l believe. varies little in the per-
centage of wrongd,ers to the whole
Il. l.. Ford.

The great American potato "a a daily

number OF otherwise patriotic Ameri-
