VARIOUS KINDS OF COINAGE.
Twenty-sIx Different Monetary Units
 Are in Use.

Twenty-six different monetary units are used by the AS principal countries of the world. Thus, Great Britain uses the sovereign or pound sterling: France and six other countries of Eu- rope use a unit equal to the franc: and Canada and the United States use the dollar. In value these different units range from A to 494.33 cents of money of the United States. They are represented in their turn by coins the values of which are either multi ples or are fractional parts of the value of their own chief units. and there are no doubt at least 200 such different coins, not one of which seefns to have a value equal to that of any commonly known unit of weight, as the gram. for example, or the ounce of gold. although 43 of these 4S countries have accepted gold as their standard measure of values. In the coinage of the world there seems. Indeed. 10 be little that is logical or reasonable. Adoption of a single monetary unit or base, If not of an universal system of coinage 10 be used in all commerce between the na- tions. suggests E. ".

chamois for New Zealand.

An Austrian warship visited New Zealand last year. Its oficers were handsomely entertained and present. cd with variety of local products and curios. In recognition of this hospitality the Emperor Francis Jos eph has made gift of eight chanois to the colony. The transportation of the animals to the other side of the globe was a risky undertaking. but it has been successfully accomplished. The passage between the tropics was the crucial stage of the voyage. but the chamois were carefully shielded from the heat and emerged without any loss save temporary one Of ar- petite New Zealand has snowclsd Alpine heights. where they will soon feel perfectly at home.

SMALL MANTLEs ARE CHIC.
Give Fine SAir of Completeness to
 the Costume.

There is no end to the charming little mantles worn with gowns and that complete the costume so per fectly. As dress lingerie waists are de rigueur they give a particular charm to these lovely mantles when ever they are put aside. A very at- tractiye louisine silk costume on this order. worn at a recent wedding. was a French gray figured in white. The skirt had three inset pipings of white satin in a line group crossing like band, a few inches from the bottom. The smart mantle matched the skirt and was draped into the figure over fitted foundation of white silk marce- line. In front, the drapery crossed. leaving a V space filled in by the lawn and lace of the lingerie blouse. In the back, there was the same crossed drapery. which in Dolman style, formed the sleeves. the drapery being tightly drawn at the crossing close to the belt.

M HUNG ADVOCATES
Marquis Ito, Jap Premier, at
 Korean Capital.
"DEATH TO JAPANESE!" THE CRY.
Reign of Emperor of Ancient King dom, Cause of the Late War In Far East, Comes to
 Close Today.

SEOUL, July 19.-The Korean minis try has resigned.
 The ceremony of the publication of the emperor of Korea has been set for today.
 The emperor conferred with the elder statesmen at o'clock this morn- ing, the cabinet ministers waiting in an adjoining room.
 After two hours conference his majesty finally yielded and made up his mind to abdicate, and it was then decided to hold the abdication cere- mony today.
 Much unrest prevails about the pal ace, and in another part of the city a crowd of 2,000 is assembled. A DOT ton of this crowd assaulted the office of the Daily Kokumin, but the mob was dispersed by Japanese troops be- fore heavy damage was inflicted.
 Marquis Ito, in compliance with the emperor's urgent desire to see him, even for a short time, proceeded to the palace.
 The audience of Marquis Ito with the emperor of Korea lasted one hour. It is reported that the emperor appealed imploringly to the former to help save Korea from her present complication in manner satisfactory to the Japa- nese and without doing anything de- rogatory to the Korean court. Marquis Ito, it is said, carefully avoided making any definite reply and retired without committing himself.
 It is reported that the emperor was very angry at his ministers on account of their having advised him to abdi- cate. He said to them that he occu- pied the throne by right inherited from his ancestors and that his subjects had no authority to advise his dethrone- ment, much less to do so with the SUD- port of foreigners.
 The emperor is constantly distrustful of all about him and is haunted with the fear of an attempt upon his life.
 Placards were posted here calling for the death of all Japanese officials in Seoul The ministers are strongly guarded, and every precaution has been taken to prevent riots and attacks upon officials. The emperor is reported to be too worried to take food or sleep, but this report is considered to be one of his usual maneuvers to enlist the sympathy of his people.

ana your sons and daughters will lack
the opportunity that is theirs by right
of birth, and your acres, that are now
valuable because they lie in close

Your interests are identical with
those of the merchants of your town.
By sending your dollars to the city
you may cause the merchants to close
their establishments, but when they
are forced to this they can pack their
stock of goods and go elsewhere, but
you cannot pack up your farm and
move it; your acres must lie in the
bed you have builded for them whether
it be fair or foul, and it is "up to you,"

| products of his farm. 1t is these half
| dozen merchants that make farm
profits possible; the profits are in no
way due to the catalogue houses of
the cities.
! But the farmer persists in sending
] his dollars to the city. He wants a
buggy, or a set of harness, or a pair
of stockings, or any OF the necessities
or luxuries of life, and to get them he
| takes out his mail order catalogue and
looks at the finely printed cuts, reads
the we'll written description and, pass
ing the local merchant by, the mer-
chant who has purchased his produce
at the best market prices the mer-
chant who has helped to build the
the catalogue house in the city and
takes what they choose to send him.
What is the result?
One after another the doors of the
local stores are closed, and where at
one time there were half a dozen mer-
chants, each bidding for his share of
patronage by Offering fair prices for
that which the farmer had to sell,
there is now but one merchant who
has a monopoly, not only of the sell
ing, but of the buying as well, and he
pays what he pleases for the farmers
produce.
The farmer can continue to send his
money to the catalogue house in the
city for his supplies, but he cannot
send his produce to the same place
In disposing of that he is absolutely
dependent upon his local merchant,
and by his patronage of the catalogue
houses he has killed competition, and
must now take whatever is offered for
what he has to sell.
Mr.. Farmer, are you helping to kill
the goose that is laying your golden
egg?
Are you sending your dollars to the
catalogue houses and by so doing kill
ing the local industries of your town?
Are you putting your merchants out
of business, and creating a monopoly
that will pay you what it pleases for
the products of your farm?
If you are doing these things it is
time for you to stop and consider the
future You will have to look but
little way ahead to see the result, and
it will not be an attractive picture that
greets you. The prosperous COM
munity of which you are now part
will fade like the summer flowers be-
'ore the winter winds, and almost as
quickly.
1t is the fact that there is market
within close proximity to your farm
that makes your acres valuable. The
men who maintain this local market
for you are the men who cause the
railroad trains to stop at your town.
Take them away and soon the town
will be wiped off the map. The
churches will close for lack of support.
The schools will cease to be pride,

Copyright, 1906, by Alfred c. C1arl1
The most serious problem that con.
fronts the rural towns and villa ges
of this country is the competition of
fered local enterprises by the cata.
aogue houses of the large cities. If is
"a problem for which a solution muet
be found il the prosperity and sta
bll1ty OF the nation is to stand.
And the solution of this great nrob=
lem lies in the ham of the people of
the towns and villages and the farms
especially the farms.
The people OF the rural communities
nave everything to lose and nothing
10 gain by sending their money to
ahe catalogue houses, by passing nv
tAslr local merchants and sending
fheir dollars to the concerns who have
absolutely no interest in their COM
munities.
These catalogue houses do not paw
taxes in your town; the local mer-
chant does. They do not build side
walks in your town; the local mer-
chant does. They do not contribute
TO the building of roads over which
the crops Of the farms are hauled to
market; the local merchant does.
They do not help to build school
houses for your children; the local
merchant does. They do not assist in
tdhe support of your churches; the
local merchant does.
But there are some things the cata-
liogue houses do for you and the
first and greatest of these is to assist
materially in bankrupting your com
immunity. The dollars they take away
never come back 20 you. They will
never help to make a city of your vii
Ilage. They will never increase the
value of your real-estate holdings by
making local improvements.
Let us look at the subject from the
standpoint of the farmer, for it is the
farmer who is the greatest patron of
Ithe catalogue houses.
The town or village one, two or
three miles from his home is his mar
Iket for the butter and eggs and other
tproduce of his farm. The half dozen

business of the community, maintain

A song that touched my heart,
A song of thankfulness and peace,
A song of wondrous art.
Behind the iron bars his throat
Throbbed wild with joy of him;
Ebbed to and fro, despite his Fate
Within a prison grim.
No sky, no stream, no bud, no rose,
No grand, inspiring world
And yet all day his mellow voice
In trilling gladness purled
And las free to come and go

In envy of the bird.

Bow low and plead thee long,
