Mr.. Macarthur. one Of the inventors
Of be cyanide process for the extraction

respect to the future supply OF that

fet downward, and geology confesses its
ignorance Of what may lie below. There
SENS no limit" observes Mr.. MacAr-
thur, "to possible discoveries. Some
years ago the proportion Of the precious
metal obtained from a~lluvial workings
was as four to one compared with what
vas won from its rocky mstrix. Now
these figures are reversed. 10 Russia,
including Siberia, the West Coast Of At
RIGA, British. Dutch, and French Guiana,
some of the South American States and
Borneo, the s%lluvial output is o%verwhelm.
inely greater than that from reefs, which
is only a thing Of yesterday. How great
an increase in the yield may be expected
to take place, therefore, in all these coun.
tries when the steam engine and machin.
cry for crushing are brought to bear upon
the reefs, of which the a~lluvial gold is
the mere debris? "Gold mining" con-
cludes Mr.. MscArthur, els just begin
ming to take the place that copper or lead
mining has occupied for centuries. One
has no more reason to doubt the contin-
uance Of gold reefs than one has to doubt
the continuance Of other metalliferous
mines. No one can say what quantities
Of gold may be concealed in the more
central parts Of the earth, nor what i'm

AN UPwARD MOVE.

The announcement that the Bank oil

proportion Of the Bank Of England's re-
serve amounts to $50. OOO. 900. represent
ing about 81. O0O, 900 ounces at the pres
emit bullion value.
II would seem that Q mistaken notion
prevails as to the cause Of this action. it
being the generally accepted idea that
the Bank Of England has done this to re-
lieve its need for gold as . reserve to the
extent mentioned. and in many quarters
opposed 10 silver this is used as 9 text
upon which to argue the absurdity OF
such q movement. In this regard it is to
be noted that the word " silver" means
the British silver coin. Such coin is only
available for redeeming Bank of England
notes TO the extent of ten dollars ; but
for general trade purposes a pound ster-
ling in silver is IS good as q pound ster-
ling In gold.
IL 10 believed that the real reason for
such action Is noted is . desire to arrest
the downward movement of silver, so far
ss government silver and British colonial
silver is concerned. The United States
and France keep their silver dollars Of
par with gold by making them 3 full
legal tender. The action of the Bank OF
England means just the same thing, and
is caused by the present situation in In
dia. Simultaneously with such action is
noted an advance in the price Of silver,
not because Of il, but in concert with ID.

Love Your Mother,

and true tenderness OF spirit
"Show your mother that you love her.
Let your affection wrap her around like .
garment; speak the kind, reverent,
cheering word ; see that she has every
comfort now-soon it will be too late.
Be not chary in outward manifestations
Of love.
"In the evening twilight sit close be-
side her. clasp the pale hand, touch the
silver hair gently. Remember, remem-
Der that the hour draws nigh when the
hands that have done so much for you
will be m~otionless forever. Remember,
remember that very soon the locks will
be brushed smooth for the last sleep
the brow will be cold /; the tender mother
eyes will be closed, the dear lips speech
less. Then the words and acts OF affec-
ton which are now possible cannot reach
her. Never can you speak one syllable
of love to, or perform one act Of kind
ness for. your mother. The recollection
Of such words and acts OF affection will
comfort your bereaved heart in that sad
hour How you will then need such
blessed memories They will then be as
atbenison OF peace. And, however sffec.
~tionate your unity Of spirit with the dear
mother you will then wish that you had
been more ~outspoken. more detnonstra-
tive in your tenderness"
