vious ten years, and the other
half in all the pervious history of
the world.
Just think of it-as much in a
single decade as in all the time
since Solomon went into the mar
ket for gold for his temple! No
wonder the dollar won't buy
much! Now the great low-grade
silver-standard nations like those
of South America, Mexico, India
and China are most of them try
ing to place themselves on the
gold standard, and are absorbing
this new gold in an astonishing
way; but when their wants are

squirrels have piled up so many

1t is as If wages and prices and
debts were all payable in cloth

yard-stick, which were growing
shorter all the time. Good for
debtors, bad for wages and sure

a few days ago of the departure of

1t can hardly be denied that the
colonel went in search of game as he
took ample arms and ammunition
across the canyon to shoot most of the
animals on the other side. The Grand
