Around the world In rhirty peys.


 Perhaps you've never read Jules Yegne's thrilling story Around the World In Eighty Days. When it was written, the author thought he was tell ing very big story, indeed, and so did every one else. The idea, said his read CTS, of travelling 20, O00 miles in 50 daysl Preposterousl
 But since then many travellers have made the trip in less time, and within the next four years any boy or girl will be able to make it in 30 days, For in the year 1900 the Russians will com plete their famous Transsiberian rail road, which connects Europe with the Pacific coast of Asia. Starting from New York. the tr1veler may then eross the Atlantic ocean to the coast of France, Here he may take train which will whirl him over Europe and Asia and put him down at a Pacific port From this point he may ship to san Francisco and catch train for New York. It is calculated that the fare fer the trip will not be more than $500 or &100.
 If this railroad building keeps on, there will soon be no parts e the world left for our boys to explore, Chicago Record
 The white oarnation is regarded in England as an emblem of disdain. This idea was probably suggested by the up right habit of the flower, which mods and waves haughtily in the breeze

asked that paper the following ques-
tion: 1.-THE cashier of our bank tells
me that under free coinage if / were
to have my bullion coined into silver
dollars they would only pass for their
stamped value. How about that 2"
To this question the American Banker
replies: IF the United States govern
ment should stamp sone dollar upon
SO cents worth of silver, ON 10 cents
worth of silver for that matter, The coin
would pass at its denominational
amount unquestionably The only way
IN which the original value of the silver
n such a coin reasserts itself is in the
rise-of prices as expressed in that coin.
This is probably what Cashier meant
when he stated rather indefinitely that
the stamp would not affect tht bullion
