A CRAZY CURRENCY
China Has a Monetary System
That Borders on the Chaotic.

OF the many strange things in China
not the least strange is its currency.
To the foreigner it seems a miracle
that any business can be transacted
successfully with such Il mediuE, OF
exchange. 1t has been described as
chaotic. Nevertheless business and
trade flourish in China, which speaks
volumes for the business acumen of
the Chinese. Perhaps the fact that
trade flourished in China long before
such a thing as currency was known
accounts for the fact that the Chinese,
with such a lax system as they now
possess, still stand in The front rank
of commercial nations.
In China all forms of exchange from
barter up are in use. A very large
part of the country's business is done
against the actual delivery of weighed
silver. For convenience silver is melt
ed into rough ingots having the shape
of the Chinese shoe. These silver
shoes have stamped upon them their
fineness and weight. The unit OF
weight is the tael, which is equal to n
quantity of silver weighing $50 grains
troy and is worth about 60 cents in
our money.
The tael is not an ingot nor coin.
but simply an abstract term signifying
a unit of weight. such as pound Of
butter or an ounce" of gold. Though
an abstract term. it is the measure of
wealth and the unit of value through
out the length and breadth of China.
A man buys a business for so many
taels of silver. His profits are com.
puted in taels. When he makes pay
ment he weighs out the silver accord.
ing TO this ur1t.
The silver shoes vary in weight from
one to seventy-five taels. All silvei
shops and banks have FORCES. where
the silver is melted in iron ladies' and
poured into molds. The smelters with
their ladies and molds remind one of
cooks. They stir the silver with q pair
Of metal chopsticks. To one not aware
OF what they were doing it would be
natural to suppose that they were en-
gagged in connecting something good To
eat. In the process of recasting the
th6Olo tuclE uueDtSS Is OELen changed
being either improved or debased
whichever best suits the interests OF
the shop. Bankers and money chang
ers are able to determine the quality
of the silver by the sense of touch
The sellers or depositors are always
at their mercy and must often submit
to the operation Of having their silver
discounted on account OF bad touch
In the interior of China small pur
cbases are made with copper coins
with square holes in the center. These
are called 'cash" and are threaded on
strings SO that they may be carried
across ones shoulder or on pole. A
string of $50 Of these cash is worth
about 80 cents in orr money. Some
times bits of silver are Clipped from
the silver shoes and used for small
purchases. When travelling IN the In
terror one must take with him large
amount OF silver shoes exchanging
