that fishing is also a forensic art. What

English money.

English money will give you a head-
ache for a week and make you mad all
the time you are in England. The Eng
fish pound is equivalent to five dollars
and splits into twenty shillings or half Il
peck OF pennies, each of which is as large
us n small dinner plate. An English
shilling is supposed to be n quarter hut
only contains twelve pennies. which are
worth two cents apiece. Likewise, the
English six pence is worth twelve and
one-half cents, but only splits into six
pennies. Moreover. ii is used like the
American dime Thus. somebody gets q
percentage of all of your change. There
is only one way to beat the game. Buy
nlckle cigars instead of ten cent ones.
You will pay twelve and one-half cents
apiece for the latter and only ''tuppence"
or four cents for the former
Ascending street cars.
Almost the first thing you will notice
in England will be the street cars. They
