In the entire city hut in four wards On this
basis it is safe to assume that in the whole
united States when there is a hotly contested
Presidential election there must be enough
cash withdrawn from circulation to build
municipal building in New York City and pay
the national debt besides. The natural effect is
of course, that there is little except pennies in
circulation which very incOnvenient to
carry. 1t has not escaped general notice that
money has tendency to go into hiding shorty
before a doubtful Presidential election and
some have assumed that this was through fear
of the effect of change of administration upon
business conditions. There is now the alter
native of assuming that most of the idle money
and some that has heretofore been attending
pretty strictly to business are in the hands Of
the Stockholders. Every one knows how soon
money election gets into circulation,
and this easily accounts for the sudden relaxa-
tiOn which logically should, even if it does not,
follow the autumnal voting. Before Congress
takes any radical action for against the much
talked of elastic currency it might be we'll to
look into the matter of election wagers to see
if some means of substituting tin for real money
cannot be devised.

The Word

Crank in the sense of an eccentric
person Is a Jew word. The very first
written instance of crank in the mod
ern sense that could be found for DR..
Murray's dictionary was in the reports
OF the trial Of Guiteau, President Gar
fields murderer. Guiteau's reference
to somebody as a crank gave the word
a vogue that has gone on spreading.
But the adjective cranky was known
IN 1877 as meaning sickly (the German
~"krank'), and to Dickens in the senses
OF cross and crochety. In all its mean
ings 1t springs from the root idea Of
c~rookedness, as does crank in it's six
teenth century sense of a deceitful
trick. as in ''Quips and cranks."

DRESSING FOR DINNER.
A Habit to he Cultivated by All

A Habit to he Cultivated by All
Classes ct Persons.
"Dressing for dinner" is regarded by
~evidencing merely a desire to appear
superior to somebody else. They OBJ
serve no dignity in the custom and per-
haps do not realize the fact that the
change of clothes is consistent with
personal comfort and cleanliness,
whether the new garments donned be
of the evening dress pattern or not.
The most important meal Of the day
affords to those who dine in the even
Ing al excellent opportunity Of ex-
changing their workaday clothes for a
suit which has been brushed and aired.
The bracing effect Of a change of
clothes is well known. Many a man,
being almost too fatigued after an ar
duous days work to change his clothes.
finds himself considerably refreshed
when he experiences a feeling of clean
liness and preparedness for his dinner,
and good digestion invariably waits on
healthy appetite. The changing of
clothes may even thus favorably affect
nutrition. Nor need the changing of
clothes be the exclusive luxury of the
persons who dress for dinner. The
hard worked clerk. the shopkeeper and
the workingman would all be better II
they would cast of their workaday
clothes and put on clean clothes for the
evening meal after the day Of toll is
over. The change freshens the body,
gives a gentle stimulus to the wearied
hand and head. and a brighter view of
things Is thereby engendered. The
habit is, besides, clearly. digniied and
becoming.-Lancet.

Why Boston Pastor Regrets to Marry
Young People.

II regret when l have to marry
young people," said the Rev. Frederick
B. Richards, pastor of the Phillips
church, South Boston, in his sermon
on Tired Christians" the other morn
ing, according to a Boston special dis
patch to the New York World.
when young people are married it
Is the one who is not a Christian who
has the strongest influence. 1t always
results that the church loses both.
Service without love Is bondage. When
a young married couple are in love
every sacrifice for the other becomes
a privilege. Business takes away the
young men and social life the women.
Soon they think they are too old for
the young peoples societies; then they
are retired Christians.' 1t Ia but a step
more to becoming a tired Christian

does not similarly detract from interest

DETERMINING LEVELS.
Method by Which Every Man May Be
His Own Surveyor.

His Own
A simple way of roughly determin-
ing levels. and n which can readily
be practiced by any one and which has
the advantage of not requiring any
special apparatus. is by means Of a
spirit level and a board with a straight
edge. The way to go about it is this:
First determine on two points the lev.
els Of which you wish to know and
drive stakes into the ground. Then
take a board with a straight edge and
tack it to a tree, if M happens to be
available. in a line with these two
stakes. Put the board at such a height
that you can readily sight over it and
carefully level this board by means Of
the spirit level. Then sight it over to-
ward one Of the stakes, having some
one at that stake who will, by means
Of a small piece Of paper, locate the
point at which your line of vision cuts
tin other words, where a line pro-
jected from your sighting board would
strike the stake. Make some sort Of
mark at this point and then sight to
the other stake in the same way and
mark the point where the line would
strike 1t. BY measuring distances that
these two points are above the ground
you can get the difference In levels
with reasonable accuracy. For in
stance, II your line Of vision has cut
stake eight feet from the ground
and the other one Ave feet from the
ground, then obviously the difference
in level is three feet, or, In other words,
the vicinity of the stake on which the
mark is five feet from the ground is
three feet higher than the other stake,
and you will have a three foot fall
from draining from this point to the
other.-Farm!ng.
