 Now and then, however, q medicine be- comes so popular that the people whom 1t cures are numerous and manifest that the physicians do not hesitate to make public endorsement of 1t, and use 1t in their practice.
 Such has been the case with Peruna,
 Recognized by Physicians. For many years the physicians op- posed It.
 After a while, occasionally one here and there felt constrained to use 1t.
 There are still many physicians who are opposed to Peruna, but the number of physicians who endorse Peruna, and who make daily use of 1t iR9their prac- tice is rapidly increasing

A MONETARY CRISIS
is FEARED IN CHINA
Introduction of New Coin of Greater Denomination and
Less Intrinsic Value Regarded as Likely to
Send Prices Soaring.

That the industrial and financial mod
ernization of China has already reached
the point at which there is threat of
grave monetary crisis Is the suggestion
presented by Fl. B. Morse, a statistical
secretary of the British customs service
in China, in an address which Direck
Of the Mint Roberts has just received
The possibility is that China will pres
emily be facing condition in which
less valuable coinage will be circulating
side by side with a more valuable, and
Mr. Morses fear is that in accordance
with the well-known economic law the
less valuable medium Will drive out the
more valuable, and produce serious
financial situation.
Heretofore the cash." a copper coin
in value equal to about one-twentieth of
the American cent. has been the chief
coin of Chinese circulation. But more
recently there has been an extensive
mintage of a coin called the cent"
which is equal to about ten cash" Laet
year there were coined the immense to-

the coinage of the cash" has not been
increased.
Prices Prone to Increase.
While the value of the cent" Is nom

cash its intrinsic value Is not nearly
so much larger, and hence the fear that

two coins will drive out the other. Mr.
Morse indicates that he regards the sit
ua .ion as a serious one. because he
doubts If the industry of China Is pre-
pared-to substitute such a unit of money
as the cent for the much less valu-
able unit on which all transactions. have
been based in the past.
He points out that to substitute a t,ni,
homlnaiIy ten times as valuable as the
one 10 Wh1ch business transa ctions have
iohS peen adjusted, cannot fall to raise
the whole standard of prices. and a. rs

This phase, the report of so sweeping n
reform OF the currency system of the

and prices, is most interesting and i'm

ne process, of course, must be q long

clearly indicates that 1t has fairly be-
