and the stone houses, with their

of fortresses. The surface is more
broken and picturesque, and the
lines of trees, all carefully trimmed

that this is a land where no SUM-

for the most part content with
scanty and coarse fare and uulimit

the old hereditary savagery coming
out in quarrelsome tempers and
love of lawsuits. The popular
songs of Normandy are all drink
ing songs, and the proportion of
crime to population is said to be
the largest of any province in
France. When you have seen the
province and people, you under,

some of Guy de Maupassart's tales.

! peasant whom be takes as his type,
aud often he seems indeed human

Normandy is rich land. We

What is NJ amt by is to 1

Free and unlimited coinage of
silver as enunciated by the Chicago
platform, means that our minis
shall receive and coin into money
or bars, free of charge, all the silver
of standard fineness that may be
presented unless by congressional
legis lation the amount shall be
limited to the American product.
The term "16 to 1" means that
the pure siler in standard dollar
weighs about sixteen times as
much as the pure geld in a gold
dollar. An American silver. dol
lar contains 81 IA grains Of silver,
while an American gold dollar con-
tains % Ia grains of gold.
AT the period of the establish
ment of the Unitvd States minis
congress fixed the ratio between
silver and gold to be used in the
respective coins at fifteen ounces of
silver to one ounce of gold. Later
it was found that the ratio of 10 to
1 was too high and it was changed
by law to 16 to 1, At that time
France was usin the ratio OF Is 10
to l. At the present value al
which gold and silver are held in
the worlds markets one ounce Of
gold will buy about 80 ounces Of
