WHAT THE JAPANESE YEN Is.

When the public reads that 100 OOO,-
600 yen have Professionally been set
apart by Japan for war purposes, II
may perhaps put an exaggerated es-
Innate on that amount Although
japan has gold standard, the yen Ia
OF silver currency, and Huctuates with
the price Of silver, so that at the
moment lOO,oOOOOO OF them means
scarcely more than elOO0O,OOO. But
even this Is an immense amount IN a
country In which the wages Of a skill
ful artisan are often not more than q
yen week, The Japanese currency
system is decimal, Thus the ven, or
dollar, IL divided into 100 sen or cents
the sen into 10 rim the rim into 10 mo
the mo into 10 shu, and the shu. final
ly into 10 kotsu, Government ac-
counts do not take account of any
value smaller than Il rim, but estimates
by private tradesmen often descend 10
mo and shu. which are Incredibly
minute fractions Of farthlng No
coin exists, however. 10 represent
these lilllputian sums,-London Chron-
