He Could Be Indifferent.

1t isn't every man that owns a silk
hat, but it is the dream of every very
young mans life to possess one. A
young man in our end of town went to
the matinee with the only girl he ever
really loved, and he wore silk hat.
He put it under the seat carefully, and
the next person who came in gave it a
kick that practically ruined it. Most
young fellows would have had fit right
there, but this one said nothing at all.
He was so philosophical that the girl
was charmed, AS they came out of the
theater they met another young man,
and the three went to get some soda
water. The girl told about the young
mans hat, and how philosophical he
was:
"Why, do you know, jack" she said.
"Charley didn't even look annoyed. 1t
was lovely"
"Umph, " said Jack, with fire in his
eye, it's all right for him to be lovely,
but it's my hatv"
1t is just such little things as this that
wreck the friendship Of a lifetime

The Presidents Salary in Wheat.

In 1864 the Presidents salary was
$4,000. To pay it in wheat at that time
would have required I .6e9 bushels. The
Presidents salary is now $5o, 900. In 1894
it would have taken 81, 52S bushels. Had
the salary remained as in 1864 at just one
half the present sum, 43,764 bushels of
wheat would have been required to pay
it iE "a, the difference in the number of
bushels of wheat to pay the same bill at
the two periods being 3o,o65 bushels.
This comparison between money and
products if carried through the whole
range of business will afford compre-
hensive state of business as between the
present time and 1864.
A dollar of debt and interest in 1864 is
a dollar of debt to-day. Money has gone
up in value as products of labor have
fallen in price. Salaries, fees and taxes
have hardly changed from their 1864
status, salaries in some cases having in
creased. The persons who own debts,
receive interest, salaries and fees, and
those who hold Office and consume taxes
are almost wholly ranged on the Sound
money! side, which is the shylock side,
Sound money" meaning gold, and
national bank notes. payable in gold at
the pleasure and convenience ofthe banks,
and small volume of circulating money
in order to keep down prices that salaries,
interest, fees and taxes may continue to
buy more of the products of labor.

number of other choice volumes, all in
best English cloth.
In the case of Milton, Dante and few
others the publisher has turned out some
striking and highly ornamental centre
table volumes.
How the publisher makes such terms to
the reader, especially in view of the high
quality of Once Week, that is among
our most excellent exchanges-this is
something to be explained only on the
theory of large subscription list
A full explanation of this $500 annual

AYPHENATED NAMES.
Some Are Genuine, Others Simply Stand
For Snobbery-HOw to Distinguish.

Some Are Genuine, Others Simply Stand
For Snobbery-How to Distinguish.
Hyphenated names in Europe may be
divided into two categories
those wherein the hyphen is mere piece
Of snobbery and affectation, and those
wherein it is consequent upon legal
obligation. The latter are in the minor
ity and are borne almost invariably by
legatees and their descendants, who have
inherited property, usually real estate,
contingent upon their tacking the name
Of the testator on to their own, or else
they are men who have married heiresses
and been accepted as husbands for the
latter on the condition that they should
append the family name of their wives
20 their own patronymic.
People in the other category, who use
the hyphen merely with the object Of
creating the impression that they are of
more ancient lineage than is really the
case, invariably prefix, instead of ap-
pending, the additional name, and it is
this that enables one to distinguish the
''bona fide double barrel" as Lord Ran
dolph Churchill used to call them, from
those who are not, for you have only to
ask Mr.. Ponsonby-J Jones for the name Of
his paternal grandfather in order to find
out that the old gentleman was a simple
Jones, devoid of the aristocratic Ponson-
by, whereas in the case of surnames
adopted in Difference to testamentary
dispositions one will invariably find on
inquiry that the paternal grandfather
and ancestors bore the first Of the two
patronymics.
The persons who make use of hyphen-
ated names without being compelled to
do so are usually the owners of patro-
nymics excruciatingly plebeian, who
hope, vainly, it is true, to redeem the
commonplace character of their name by
prefxing thereto one calculated, they
trust, to create the impression that they
are connected with some of the great
houses of the nobility. Thus it is quite
common to find Montmorency-S Smiths,
Plantagenet-Rob Robinsons and We're de

A Gold DespOtism.

To own and sequester silver as
money was beyond their power. 1t
was too bulky. While the united
banks might be able to buy it they
could not easily handle it. Gold
was only sixteenth of it's bulk to
the dollar and this they could
handle and monopOlize. Now to
get the monopoly or full control of
money was to get control of the
vast business transactions of civiliza-
ton. Control of business by a
junto of the money power, selfish
and devoid of enlightened instincts
meant the reinstatement of man
kind. 1t meant the conversion of
modern civilization to an aristocra-
tic power involving despotism.-
