often done by the apprentices of the

worthless pearls, and the experience
is very good for them. 1t teaches

Gently on his return from a visit to
Korea. Il will give you an ilustra-
ton. Some time ago commercial
traveller-who probably had something
to gain by the proposal-showed the
king or emperor that the intrinsic
value of the nickel scent coin in cir
culation was only half it's face value.
He suggested that the king might es-
tablish mint and turn out these
coins at great personal profit. The
idea was at once put into execution
and the market flooded with debased
coin. Naturally, there was very soon
partial par alysis of trade The for
eign merchants refused to take the
new coin; but the native trader had
no remedy, except in raising prices.
The king-or emperor as he now calls
himself-had some ready money, but
all classes of his people suffered i'm
mense losses. The yen, for instance,
fell to half its regular value. Event
ually, however, after about twelve
months operation, the mint ceased to
turn out these nickel coins

The lovliest volumes come at last.
Shall thumb YOU for trace of good
Enduring though your day be ras.
Be not abashed at your small worth;
His sense is keen; and there may cling
About your yeliowing pages still
Some freshness of the Northern spring;
Some echo of the white throat's song
From lonely valleys blue with rain,
Ringing across the April dusk
JOY and unfathomable pain;
Some glamour of the darling land
OF purple hill and scarlet tree,
OF tidal rivers and tail ships
And een-liiked orchards by the sea;
A sweep Of elm-treed interval.
And sravelly floors where herons wade;
A sigh of wind through Old gray barns
With eercst music ever made.
And will no hint of this outweigh
The faulty aim. the fau.tier skill,
To save our credit when We come
