II is reported that China has de-.
termined to revise her financial
system and establish a currency
based on the gold standard. She
has for some time been seeking the
advice of specialists on money mat
ters. and it is apparent that the
time has come TO fall in line with
the leading commercial nations OF
the world. China has always been
one of the largest of the silver using
nations. The change will be a great
convenience in the matter of trade
with other nations.

The various sections of Russia.
opposed to the Bolsheviki, have re-
fused to send delegates to the con-
ference at Princes Island on the
ground that they cannot have deal
ings with the radicals. Thus the
effort of the Peace Congress to bring
about some understanding is an ap-
parent failure. Our minister, Mr..
Francis, thinks that a peace for
Europe with Russia in its present
condition is impossible. The allies,
however. seem less inclined to in
terfere with force than formerly.

A Pan-African Congress is being
held in Paris in connection with
the Peace Congress. The purpose
of this conference is to safeguard
the rights Of the black people in
Africa, TO see that they are not de-
prived illegally Of land and prop

citizenship and privileges as soon
as they may be qualified TO use the
same. Many of the black races OF
Africa have born a part OF the war
and are to share the benefits that
may result from it.

criticised by some authorities for
his cabinet appointments. The list
does not contain some names that it
was expected would be there. The
prime minister, however, has way

cabinet on the ground that he is so
busy with the Peace Congress that
he has paid but little attention to
the appointments.

Riding hobby differs from riding
horse. said the wise lunatic, in that
you can get off the horse.
Anyhow, Mr.. Newton takes his own
medicine, and for some 80 years he
has ridden q hobby all over the contl-
nents In search of rare books, Glrard
writes in Philadelphia Press.
He's collector. he is, and his home
contains an immense and highly valu-
able library
"What is the prize book In the whole
world?" asked him.
"The Gutenberg Bible" said he. for
which Henry E. Huntington paid $5o,-

This son Of the old Southern Pacific
railroad builder has what Mr.. Newton
declares easily the greatest private IL
brary on earth.
You would hardly think It possible

which would interest the rank outsider

has succeeded in doing 1t.
A copy of Ben Franklin's Cato Ma

garret not long ago and was afterward
sold for $500, so Mr.. Newton reports.
OF all the books and pamphlets
Franklin turned off his Philadelphia
press, that one, said the famous print
er, was his best job geographically.
Franklin did so many things first
that folks rarely remember that he also
printed the first translation Of Greek
or Latin classic that was issued In
America.
No one has yet matched the old sage
in another respect-4OO reprints OF a
single work. Franklin's "Way OF
Wealth" has passed that number.
There have been rs editions OF it print

Industry Overdone.

The development of the coconut Oil
Industry in the Philippines has been
very rapid. due to war conditions. The
exports of oil in 1918 amounted to
115,OOO tons, as compared with $4,000
tons in 1917 and 10000 tons in 1916.
There Is a scarcity Of shipping to take
copra to Hull. England, and Marseilles,
France, which are the great centers
for oil crushing, hence it is found more
profitable to ship the less bulky oil to
the United States. A number of new
oil mills have been constructed in the
Philinpines in order to fill the demand
for oil, but it IS serious question
whether the present crushing capacity
Of the Philippine mills is not in excess
of the normal supply Of copra.

Unknown speaker, went to her door the
ether morning to buy some blackber-
ries of young country woman, re-
ports the Indianapolis News. The ber-
ries were fine, but the suffragist wish
ed them at lower price than they
were offered. "Why, they just grow
along the roadside so plentifully that
all you have to do is to pick them,"
she told the woman. Don't you think
you are charging a rather exorbitant
price for your labor?"
The country woman put her boxes
back into her basket. 1--WE known Of

tily. "Words are more plentiful than
blackberries and yet our club had to
