up town on a Madison avenue car las
evening, when one noticed the head

ried.

next to her, that sixteen silver dol
lars would be equal to one gold-that

ounces of silver to make silver dol
lar"
Then she blushed and looked con-
fused, and demure woman in blue
dress who sat beside her endeavored
to help her out of the tangle in this
wise:
What they want is to make a dol
lar out of both metals, part silver and
part gold. 1t is sixten parts of silver
to one of gold. I've forgotten which
They call it bimetallism."
This solution was more satisfactory
