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
fneness and weight. The unit of
weight Is the tael, which Is equal to a
quantity of silver weighing $50 grains
troy and Is worth about 90 cents in
our money.
The tael Is not an ingot nor a coin.
but simply an abstract term signifying
unit Of weight. such as pound" Of
butter or an "ounce" of gold. Though
an abstract term. 1t Is the measure Of
wealth and the unit of value through
out the length and breadth of China.
A man buys 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 unit.
The silver shoes vary in weight from
one to seventy-tve taels. All silver
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 pair
Of metal chopsticks. To one not aware
Of what they were doing 1t would be

natural to suppose that they were en-
gagged in connecting something good to
eat. In the process of recasting the
ingots their dneness Is often 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-
chases are made with copper coins
with square holes in the center. These
are called leash" and are threaded on
strings so that they may be carried
across ones shoulder or on a pole A
string Of 1000 of these cash is worth
about 80 cents In our 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 a large
amount of silver shoes. exchanging
them for strings of cash at the various
shops. The money changers have two
sets Of scales. one to be used in the
purchase of silver and the other in the
selling of 1t.
In an attempt some years ago to in
troduce a currency based on western
models the Chinese government pur-

chased and put into circulation several
million Mexican dollars. The people
took to the new coins and called for
more. The provincial governments
then set up mints and began to coin
Chinese dollars of approximately the
same weight and fineness as the Next
can dollars. They also coined an enor-
nous amount Of subsidiary items in
the shape of small silver coins and
copper pennies.
Soon 1t was discovered that the new
currency was as unstable as the old.
The value of the dollar In relation to
the subsidiary coinage varied from day
to day. The cent was never worth the
hundredth part of dollar. Some days
40 cents were required to make up

Schwartz JeweIry Store
Carries a Varied Stock

In 1855 the Schwartz jewelry store had
its origin in Philadelphia. twenty-five
years ago. After twenty-one years of
selling jewelry in that city, the estab-
lishment moved to Washington, locating
at S24 Seventh street northwest, IN 1863,
where 4 has striven to gain a reputa-
ton for reliability and values in jew
elry.
Until recently the business of Schwartz
has been conducted on a strictly cash
basis but not long ago the management
inaugurated a popular easy-paymcnt
credit plan, which seemingly has met
with enough favor to justify the change.
II is claimed by the proprietor that this
credit policy has been assumed b.
Schwartz with every intention of main
tanning the same price markings on his
jewelry that prevailed under the strictly
cash policy.
Schwartz carries a large stock of new

signs. Displays are maintained which at

LANSBURGH| IS OLD
DEPARTMENT STORE
One of the Pioneer Establish
ments, Having Been Found
ed in 1860.

The department store of Lansburgll
& Bro. has the distinction of being
one of the pioneers of the Nation
Capital that has increased in size and
Importance with the passing of time.
The business was founded in 1860 b..
Gustave Lansburgh. Two years later,
he took into partnership his brother,
James Lansburgh. The brothers were
born in Hamburg, Germany, and
came to this country while boys.
In April, 1911, the business of Lans-
burgh 4 Bro. was Incorporated, with
Gustave Iansburgh as president and
James Lans5urgh vice president. Gus
tave Lansburgh. however. passed away
at the age of seventY-two, only a few
days after Incorporation.
With a record of more than fifty'
years of successful dry goods retailing
in Washington. during which time it
has kept abreast of the new move
ments in department store operation,
carrying out all the modern ideas of
store system and service to patrons, as
well as looking out for the comfort.
convenience and welfare of its en-
ployes, the Lansburgh store building
itself has been entirely remodeled dur
ing the past year and considerably
enlarged in size.
This enlargement has not only en-
abled the installation of new depart
ments, but has also made possible in
creased size and improvement of those
departments that have made possible
the growth of the Lansburgh business
and the broadening of the Lansburgh
policy throughout the years that have
come and gone. This fact is demon
