most unique ever seen in this city.
There ore few finer pianists than Leo

Gold Clause Becoming Popular.

There were two interviews printed in
The News yesterday which ought to set
people thinking. It was shown in one
of these interviews that the banks are
already beginning to call in their paper,
even paper which at other times they
would have been glad to renew This
tendency on the part of lenders of money
will grow stronger as the situation
grows mora uncertain. Men who lend
money on a gold basis will take no
chances of being repaid in cheap silver.
This is shown by the practice Of the
building associations, as described In
the other interview. The secretary of
one of these associations said yesterday
that there had been hardly building
association mortgage made in the. past
three years which did not contain gold
clause We quote his words:
81 do not believe it is generally known
that nearly every building and loan as
ISOLATION in this city and in the state, I
suppose, has put in every mortgage it
has taken for the last three years a
clause to the effect that the loan shall
be paid in gold, if demanded by the as
ISOLATION. The association of which /
am secretary has out $470,0 900, and that
clause is in every mortgage. Indian

Corks.

ut may seem a trivial thing to
you, said a we'll known druggist,
"but one of our greatest annoyances
is about corks. / have been in the
drug business for nearly 10 years,
and I feel sure that my experience
is no different from that Of every
other druggist. The trouble | COM
plain of is that almost so out of ev-
cry 100 persons when presenting a
bottle for medicine will invariably
retain the cork until you have filed
the bottle, put a new cork in it and
tied it up, when they will say, I
have the cork. This may seem a
trifie to kick about, but corks cost
money, and then there is trouble oo-
oasionally to find one to fit a bottle
properly. The amount of money we
lay out annually for corks might be
cut down fully 80 per cent if our
customers would only think. -

Silver and the Poor Man.

Every crank who ventures to prOselyte
for free silver seems to think that the
poor man is his most promising game
The doctrine he presents is that more
money is needed that the poor man may
have plenty. He does not say how the
poor man is to get any more money,
which is the important thing, nor that
cheap money is the one thing the poor
man can stand less ably than the rich
man. The poor man, the workingman,
or the farmer, are served only when
they have the best money obtainable.
Suppose for moment snat free silver
should drive the gold dollar out of cir
culation The first effect is on the poor
man. When he receives his weekly
wages It is paid in the cheap money.
He is the first loser. He can buy less
with it than with the higher priced
money, of course. If he happens to be
earning $12 a week and the dollars are
cut down from gold basis to a silver
basis he will get 10 dollars, worth pos
sibly 20 cents each, or So. 40, instead OF
the value that prevails when the gold
standard is accepted. With cheap money
prices will go up. What he buys he
will have to pay more for. Manufacture
ers are not going to produce their wares
and sell them for the same number of
dollars when the dollars are worth less
money. The poor man will catch it in
both directions.
Cheap money disar;ranges all business
relations. There is no such thing as
one standard for one class and another
for another class. The talk of the debt
or's money and the creditors money is
bunko. Every man is debtor and cred
itor all the time. The nottingham is
the creditor while he is earning his
wages, until he is paid. He is debtor
for the few things he buys without pay
ing for when he gets them. AS he pays
cash for much of what he buys, and al
lows all his wages to stand until the
end of the week or month, he is cred
itor more than he is a debtor. The cheap
money, which is to benefit the debtor,
would benefit the employer who owes
him wages, and who pays the wages in
the deprecated coin.
There is but one standard desirable,
and that is the best dollar that can be
made. The standard is now fixed at a
trife more than 20 grains Of pure gold.
The aim of the country is to keep all
other dollars, gold, silver or paper, up
to that standard and not debase Or
cheaper any Of them. -Pittsburg Times.

He spends his substance as freely

High steps while fortune is flush;
The passionate kisses of women
Whose cheeks have forgotten to blush.

The froth that foams for an hour;

Last night as sat here and pondered
On the end of evil ways,

| thought of my old home, Billy,
OF the schoo1-house that stood on the hill,
OF the brook that flowed through the
meadow,

OF the mother who taught me to pray,
Whose love was precious treasurer,
That / heedlessly cast away.

The fresh-lipped careless boy,
To whom the future was bound1ess,
And the world but mighty toy.
1 thought of all this as sat here,
OF my ruined and wasted life;

For Sociabillty's Sake.

Mr.. Perry was Southern gentle,
man, exceedingly polite, and very
temperate man. One day he met al
acquaintance, who called out:
"Halloo, Perry! was just going tc
get drink Come in and take some
thing"
Thank you" said Perry, Il don't
care for anything"
But" persisted the other, come
in and take something just for. socia-
bility sake"
Il want to be sociable," answered
Perry Il am anxious to be sociable
but can't drink with YOU"
''All right" growled the friend,
IF you don't want to be soeiable, I'll
go without drinking"
The two men walked silently along
for a minute or two, the sociable man
in state of great irritation, until
Perry suddenly halted in front OF a
drug store.
II m not feeling we'll to-day" said
he, with a pleasant smile, land |
think I'll go in here and get dose
of castor oil, viii you join me?"
What. exclaimed the other, In
dose of castor oil?"
Eyes, I'll pay for it.
"Ughw cried the sociable man,
with a wry face. Il hate the stuff"
"But I want you to take glass of
oil with me just to be sociable, you
know"
Il won't do it"
Indeed, NY friend" said Perry,
gravely, "your sociable whisky is just
as distasteful to me as my oil is to
you. Don't you think | have just as
much reason to be offended with you
as you have with me?"
The sociable man saw the point;
and it would be money, health and
morals saved if the lesson could be
firmly implanted in the mind of every
young man in the land.
