The only alternative, If a stable stan
dard of value Is not to be established
now and reconstruction is not to be
conducted by orderly procedure, Is re-
construction on the ruins Of financial
world-panic.
We have no standard Of value now.
Our two-centuries-old gold standard is
distinctly and everlastingly thing
of the past-obsolete.
In the confusion and wreckage of the
great war the old gold standard was
irretrievably lost. For sheer lack of
sufficient effective gold power with
which to function, it ceased to func-
ton; it simply went out of existence
and is dead--dead beyond all hope
or possibility of resurrection.
Functions of Money.
The three great functions ('money-
work") of money are to serve as
(a) A medium of exchange;
OBJ A measure of value
(c) A standard of value, or as Of
ten expressed, standard Of deferred
payments and this third function is
by far the most important.
There is now no gold in circulation
or in use, as money; and, therefore
gold is not performing any Of the func-
lions of moiley-it is not medium OF
exchange; 1t is not stable measure

Of value; it is not standard Of value
or of deferred payments.
For several years just passed no sane
business man has made contracts pay
able in gold and this for the reason
that he had no means of knowing or
guessing what gold would be worth
per ounce when the contract fell due
The result is that there are very few
outstanding contracts Of individuals
payable in gold.
Bullion Bought for Speculation.
In fact, during the last two years
gold has been traded in only as bullion.
and spectators are now buying up gold
right at our mines at S25 to $50 per
ounce and reselling it To other specu-
lators in the great money centcrs at $50
| to $33 per ounce.
Hoarding gold began in England
with declaration Of war and Old Gold
Standard breathed its last in the Brit
ish Empire scant four years ago. and
at the self-samc time in the United
| States, 1t was sitting with backward
slant on the edge of its grave and 1t
faded into its last resting place SC
peacefully that few noted its passing.

through sheer lack of effective gold

standard, operative in all its funetionS

Two centuries ago. in establishing
the old gold standard at $20.6T per

that figure because it was the price
of gold in the open market at that
time and was therefore fair criterion
of what gold was worth for the uses
and purposes of mankind at that per-
iOd.
Present Value the New Basis.
We are now In pfeClSelN tHe Sdhe
position as If all our gold were in
bullion bars. We are now starting de
lnovo TO establish new gold standard.
This establishment of a new gold stan
dard means simply stamping our gold
at its present and true value for all the
uses and purposes of a modern business
world. following the renowned prece-
dent in the establishment of the old
gold standard by the English parliment
. at the price gold sold for the day before
in the open market.
Both England and the United States
have laid an embargo on expectation
of gold ore. calling spade spade
they have repudiated gold payments.
And thus have we now arrived al
this dangerous impasse.
! II is obvious to the most casua
observer that, under such deranget

Farmer Browns Boy Pre-
pares Some Surprises.

What I have got to do said Farmer
Browns Boy to Farmer Brown as they
worked in the sugar house making maple
sirup and maple sugar. lis to make
Buster Bear afraid of those sap. pals.
I have got to think of some plan which
will teach him a lesson and make him
afraid to more than look at one Of those
pals. Buster is a greedy fellow, espe-
cially where anything sweet is concern
ed. 1 think, for one thing, l Will give
him a hot drink 1t won't really hurt
him any, but he won't forget it in a
hurry"
what are you going to do, son. put a
pail Of hot sap out for him? I'm afraid
it will cool Off before he finds it." said
Farmer Brown with twinkle in. his
eyes.
Farmer Browns boy chuckled. ut
will be hot and it will keep hot" said
he, "but it won't be heat from the fire. y
Then he brought out from one pocket
the pa -kage of red pepper. II am going
to collect all the sap from those pals
which Buster has been meddling with.
I'll do it the very last thing, so that they
will be empty Then I'll fill one pail full
Of sap and in that ! will put lot of
this red pepper. Unless l am greatly
mistaken Buster Bear will get lot of
it down before he discovers that there is
anything queer about it. When he does
discover it is hot he'll leave that par
ticular pail alone for all time. or I'm
greatly mistaken.
Buster is pretty shrewd fellow
said Farmer Brown. II guess you are
right in thinking that he will leave that
pail alone, but l am not SO sure about
the other pals. He may think that only
that one pail is wrong" -
Farmer Browns Boy nodded. Tive

thought of that said he I'm going
to prepare another surprise in anothe.,
pail. I am going to put cake of sugar
in one Of those pals and scatter some
crumbs of sugar on the ground so as
to lead him to that particular pail.
You know how crazy for sugar Buster
is. Once he gets the taste of it he'll
forget everything else. He'll stand up
at that pail and he'll take a good long
sniff before he reaches for that sugar
in the bottom. 1 am going to put
some black pepper in that pail in such
a way that he can not help but get a
lot of it up his nose when he sniffs.
Then for a while he'll think he's got
the worst cold that ever a bear had.
He'll pretty near sneeze his head of. !"

Warm-Weather Menus.

The problem of planning the menus
is simpler in summer than it is in
winter because of the wider choice of
fruit and vegetables which is possible
at that time; but. on the other hand. 1t
is difficult to plan a summer diet
which contains sufficient nourishnent
and is at the same time not too heat
ing or too heavy.
1t should be remembered that a
greateE amount of starch and fats is
necessary to maintain a well balanced
diet in the winter than fn the summer. :.
On the other hand. diet composed
exclusively of fresh fruit and green
vegetables is not nourishing enough
to satisfy the demands which work
and exercise make on the mind and
body.
Meat once a day, even if 1t is ordi-
narily eaten more frequently. is often
cereals can take it's place at breakfast
and vegetable soups and salads can
serve for the main dish at luncheon.
Milk, too. is a good warm-weather
substitute for meat. provided it is
For dinner. fish, when it can be had
fresh, can often be substituted for
meat. Made dishes Of tinned fish, too,
are tempting and nourishing; scallop-
ed salmon. creamed shrimps. jei!ied
fish and fish loaf are all good summer
dishes.
A good rule to guide the housekaep-
er in the choice of vegetables Is to use
those that are in season. There is lit
tie need to caution the economical
housewife to do this. for the. vege-
tables in season are always those that
are cheapest and freshest and most
| economical Vegetables should be
eaten in abundance when they are
cheap and fresh. Vegetable soup, two
cooked vegetables and salad of let
| tuce combined with tomatoes. peppers,
cold cooked vegetables or fruit can
all be served for dinner in warm
| weather.
| Heavy puddings and pies are out of
place in the warm weather menu. and
! so are rich cakes and pastries. In their
stead plenty Of fruit should be served

The elopers admitted their identity

youth stated that he recently had been
