THE MEASURE OF VALUE.

To Sly that the most indispensable thing in the whole world is a thing of no value is d contradiction of terms absolutely blighting to the hu- man intellect. As a matter of fact, however. all the things that have been used as money have possessed other value and we have the best reason to believe that this other value led to their use as money in every instance without q single eX ceptiOn. We cannot conceive that gold would ever Nhavc been brought into use IS money if it had not pos seSscd certain qualities of beauty porta bilty. durability, etc. which caused it to be priZed as an article of adOrnment In the HOmeric poems everything most precious and beau tiful is golden. Zcus clothes himself with gold. his palace is floOred with gold, his horses have names of sold. and he grasps q whip of gold. The goddess of love and beauty is golden Aphrodite.-Horace White, in Money and BankinG"
