.Good Money Never Made Times Hard"
II is a mere pretense to attribute the
hard times TO the fact that all our cur
rency is ON gold basis. Good money
never made times hard. Those who as
sert that our present industrial and
financial depression is the result OF the
gold standard have not read American
history Alright or been careful students
Of the events of recent years. We never
had greater prosperity in this country,
in every field of employment and indus
try, than in the busy years from 1880
to 1899, during all of which time this
country was on gold basis and en-
ployed more gold money in its fiscal and
business operations than ever before.

can do alone. 1t can fix its money unit
1t can declare by law what shall be the
relative value of an ounce of gold and
an ounce of silver, but il cannot make
that last declaration good. 1t is unques-
tionably fully within the power of this
government TO bring this country to a
silver basis by coming silver dollars and
making them legal tender. They can do
that. This government can say you shall
take one of those dollars in discharge OF
any debt owing to you for 81, rnotwith-
standing you may have loaned gold dol

decree, if you should call out the regular
army and navy and muster all our great
modern ships and add the militia, and
put William J. Bryan in command OF

1 ounce of gold is the equivalent OF 10
ounces of silver. Not only that, not

against the milk vendors she determined
to look into the quality of milk and cream
that came into her household. She met
the milkman ut the door and found her

Tho Faust Legend.

Almost every renowned man of an
tiquity in the middle ages was believed
to be attended by Il spiritus familiaris,
in direct league with the devil Proba-
bly, the oldest legend of which tho Faust
legend is continuous thread is that Of
Simon MaguS, mentioned i'll tho history
Of the apostles.
According to Justin, he was n native
Of Clifton, village in Samaria. He
was, no doubt, a man Of great intellec-
tual powers. He was the father of the
school Of the Gnostics. 1t is also report
ed of him that he could make himself
invisible, that he could pass through
flames unframed, could transpose mat
ter. mako gold and exercise demons-in
fact, he laid claim to all these powers
and his name lived in the mouths of the
people as n sort of Demiurg through
many centuries until some other miracle
working personality took his place at
the popular fireside, Unusual accom-
plishments, great erudition, were at-
tributed to the supernatural influence,
and the general disposition to supersti-
tious assumption was strengthened on
the ono hand by dogmatic affirmation
on tho part of the church of the exist
ence of personal satan, with his nu-
merous household, and, on the other
hand, by incorporating the magic arts
among the practical sciences, of which
astrology and alchemy occupied no mean
part.

HERE'S A QUEER ARGUMENT.
How an English Rector Defends His Visit

lowing letter to his flock:
