no education reformer, however rad,
ical, proposes to amend it. But the
geography Of 1890 Is not the geography
taught in school nor that which Is
studied in the Office to-day. There
have been many changes in the pollti-
cal and physical divisions of the earth

grief promised the child " love my dolly, mamma and

Treadng softly, the mother took the doll and put it

then-hat old old fashion, DEATH touched the girl and
she slept
And afterwards she lay In her little white coffin In
her simple white DRESS the DOLL dressed In the

London is perplexed over the unusu-

question comes up in London how to
care for the idle and the hungry, but
this year the case is serious and will

be on the way to race suicide; that is,
the number Of births is decreasing, al
though the population little more
than holds Its own because sanitary
conditions prevail more than formerly,
and the number of deaths among chill

good number Of births may be, it Is
far more important that those who
are born should be well born and with
an ability to secure a livelihood. In
France there IL not the extreme pow

disturbed by the hordes Of unemployed

London. The French are by nature
more economical, more skillful in get

make an attractive, palatable meal Of
what the Englishman would throw
away. They understand the art of
simple, inexpensive but wholesome liv-

England, so far as number of births go,
is better than in France 1t Is true the

there need be little anxiety over race

is progress rather than retrogression.
while in England there is good cause

GOLD BARS FOR EXPORT
How the Supply Keeps Up-stories Of
the Assay Office.
New York Evening Post

NOW 1OIh LVculuS Z OSC.
In each Of the last four weeks an
nouncement has been made that the
government 8 supply of gold bars. had
been exhausted. Yet few days after
each assertion, it was announced that
the assay office would furnish from
100000 to 100000 more in bars for
shipment to Europe. This has puz-
zled many people not familiar with the
Bars for EXPORT pufpoe SCI In bpsT ses
sons, from $3.50, 900 to 81, 100000 week
is turned out in large bars at the Sdingy
little assay office adjoining the sub
treasury in Wall street. These may be
made from ore, from foreign coin, even
from vessels and ornaments sold by pri-
vate individuals to the government for
currency. Cast-of trousers of the en-
ployees of the assay office sometimes
burned. It often happens that the old
clothing of the men is immensely more
valuable when discarded than before
use. --.. -. ,.. ~
The bars weigh about 400 ounces
each, and contain gold valued at $4,000.
The government supplies the bars for
export at a charge of $500 per $1,000
900 furnished, and the demand for
nearly a month now has been in excess
Of supply. - f..
When bars have not been available,
the bankers have taken coin, altho the
expense of coin shipments is usually
much greater than the cost Of sending
bars. This arises from the loss thru
abrasion and the difficulty of securing
full-weight coin for export transac-
tions. Altho the difference varies,
sometimes amounting to an increased
cost, as compared with bar shipments,
of 5000 on each 100000 of coin
shipped, the statement was made in
banking circles this week that the
government could make the export price
Of bars cents per 800 instead of 4
cents, and still force the bankers to
use them in export transactions. It is
improbable that such action. will be
taken, however, altho similar steps have
been at times discussed in treasury cir
cles.
