CANNOT SWEEP OFF THE NICKEL
Simple Little Trick that Is Amusing
Young People.


Young People.
A lawyer who has an office III the New
York Life Building was at a party the
other night where the principal diver
tisement was tricks, one Of which re-
calls to the lawyers mind one he used
to do when he was a schOOlboy back III
Maine. He called for a whisk broom
and then, laying a nickel in the center
of his open palm, offered it to any one
in the party who would sweep it off
with the broom. One Of the conditions
was that the broom must be held up
straight and the coin swept with the
ends Of the broom straWs.
"Oh. ! can do that" said n young
woman, and she took the broom and
began to sweep at the coin. The harder
she swept the tighter the coin stuck to
the open palm of the lawyers hand.

BUSINESS MANS EXPERIENCE.
Some ofthe Evils Certain 90 Come of
the silver Standard.


Our San Francisco namesoke
contains the following letter:
Editor Bulletin: A few facts
In regard to the practical opera
tion of the silver standard in
China and Japan have come to
me in letter from the Attorney.
General of the Hawaiian Islands,
who recently made an extended
business trip through those coun-
tries, and may be of interest in
connection with the present dis
C ssion of the silver question in
this country.
1T is hard to believe that the
people of the United States may
decide in favor of II policy which
will bring so much trouble.
Free coinage of silver would hurt
the working classes and those who
depend on salaries more than the
Capitalists. Iu China and Japan
silver is the standard. The yen
in japan and the Mexican dollar
in China contains as much, If not
more, silver than the United
States silver dollar.
"ln those Countries gold has
disappeared, and the silver dollar
is worth from 50 to So cents, as
compared with the United States
dollar. The silver dollar, when
il is the standard, is worth simply
as much as the market value of
the silver in it is worth. 1t will
be a sad day when free silver
coinage is author zed."
This is the opinion of a practi.
cal business man of extended ex-
perience, and who has Travelled in
the United States, Australia, Japan
and through the British and
Portuguese possessions in China.
He has been a lawyer in the
United ST. tes, and in the Haw allan
Islands, occupying there for the
past three years such a position as
would enable him to profit by "A
larger cosmopolitan experience
than fails to the lot of many men.
He is not rich man, and is noted
for his efforts to benefit the
laboring class of his country, and
his opinions carry much weight
with the thinking men who know
his standing. HAWAII.

Many man fails in business because of
his physical inability to attend to 1t prop
erly. When a man wakes up and looks
squarely at himself and his affairs he will
break off those habits that weakens the
body and prevent him from pushing his
plans to a successful issue
Tobacco and coffee seem so harmless that
a man feels they cannot hurt him seriously
and Tor that reason sticks to them day after
day until his nerves give out and a Ions
period of nervous prostration sets iu While
man is sick his business goes to-well, eX-
perience shows that it don't go right and
that sick spell is n wonderfully expensive
investment.
Quit the poisonous habits and nature will
slowly rebuild the broken system without
