Which system would afford the sound
est currency? A foundation restricted
to gold with unrestricted bank cur
rency and bank credits for the super
structure, or gold and silver for the
foundation with paper currency and
bank credits so restricted as to pre-
serve stability in the value OF the
whole? Is it not manifest then that
there is plenty of room in this country
for all the gold and all the silver we
are likely to get; and if left to auto
matte regulation through the produc-
tion OF the mines there is no danger Of
the world ever having an over supply
of metallic money.

John Strickland, q respectable and

the Methodists, used to relate the fol.

ministry of women, he told J. s., that,
some time before, he bad himself de.

home, he had occasion to call his little

"She tarried little, being busted in

replied, Paul went into Philips house.
and he had four daughters that did
preach; remarking, The word in our
version is prophesy, but I looked said
she, at the Greek, and found that it
should be translated preach
"The minister added, felt mortified
to think that my own little girl should
pull down all my sermon; but per-

never speak against women's preach

MARKING YOUR BICYCLE.
Detective Carroll Tells How tn,
Cycle Thief May be Trapped.

Cycle Thief May be Trapped.
John d. Carroll, chief detective OF a
wheelman's insurance company, said
recently: every owner should have
a private mark upon his or her wheel.
By this / don't mean a simple mark
upon the saddle post or on the saddle
itself, as those are the very places where
a thief will look for such a mark, and
should they be there both saddle and
post will be removed. II you want to
make the private mark on any part OF
your frame, say on the underside of
the top tube, turn your wheel upside
down and remove portion of the
enamel, say one inch by one inch, and
clean we'll till the metal is freed from
any part of the enamel. Then cover
the space so cleaned with greasy
material-candle grease, for instance ;
then take q pointed instrument of
some kind and wet the point with
carbolic acid. Proceed to write your
initials or private mark on the tubing,
being sure that you have sufficient acid
on the pointed pen before you begin.
After allowing the acid to leave its
trace on the tubing you can rub off
the greese, and one application of
enamel will cover all trace OF the mark
you have made. As an extra precau-
tion would advise every one having
private mark on his or her wheel to
keep it to himself. have had cases
where wheels were stolen from owners
by their most intimate friends.

COMPARING the recent statistics on
the proportion of men teachers in the
public schools given by Harper,s
Weekly with the corresponding statis-
tics on illiteracy, the Chicago Times
Herald finds that in nine States where
the percentage OF men teachers is over
so, the percentage of illiteracy averages
26.4. The twelve States in which the
men teachers have percentage under
20 show the least degree OF illiteracy
less than Z per cent. From this
fact and the decrease in number of
men teachers 1t may be concluded that
the education OF the future will be
largely in the hands of women.

The Expansion OF Ice.
st. Louis Republic.

St' hOuio AsSpophSs
Ice never bursts from freezing.
As soon as the liquid of which it is
composed is frozen solid expansion
ceases. The cracking or bursting of
ice is brought about in this way /:
When wateris subjected to extreme
cold, ice crystals will gradually form
on it's surface until the same are
covered with thin coat OF what ap-
pears to be wet snow. From this
outer coating of ice crystals all subse-
quent freezing goes downward, the
ice thickening according to the de-
gree OF cold. The water which is be.
ing converted into ice now begins to
expand, creating a pressure upon the
unfrozcn water below. This pressure
is both downward and outward, and
in case the water under observation is
in vessel the sides and bottom of the
receptacle supply the resistance.
AS the freezing process continues
the pressure upon the confined water
and air in the interior OF the bulk in.
creases until something yields. If the
vessel be stronger than the ice stratum
that has formed over the surface, the
layer of ice will be bent upward at the
center, that being the weakest point,
on account OF the fact that the outer
edge of the CONCEALED mass are frozen
fast to the sides of the vessel in which
the experiment is being made. In
this condition the center of the ice
continues to rise or bulge" until it
bursts from the resistance of the water
below. Could the vessel be tapped
from below and the water drawn off
no amount OF freezing would be suf-
ficient to crack or bulge the ice layer
OH the surface.

Competition In Lumber Business.
West Coast Lumberman.


Evolution is a slow coach, but its
progress can be noted by careful watch
ing. Not many years ago, kiln-dried
stock for the California markets was
not thought of, and orders for much
of the stock called for very long and
unwieldly lengths-especially was this
true of flooring. Not only this, but
California was the heap on to which
the boneyard was turned from the
mills of the Northwest coast. But
the ideas of the California lumbermen
and consumers are changing. Better
grades are demanded, and some buyers
insist that they don't want flooring
over "a feet, and they must have it
kiln-dried before it is worked. These
changes have been brought about by
sharp competition, while doubtless
more will follow.
