ing in the distant lands is the mat
ter OF cash. yet u one uses ordinary
discretion 1t can be simplihed. The
proper way TO meet an emergency
Is TO deal with some reputable bank,
notably in England, sydney and Mel
bourne, where the bankers are fair
and courteous in their dealings with
strangers.
The matter OF money is largely
mental. and many years ago resi-
dent of Wilmington was in the habit
OF buying daily cigar az the outlay
OF 1--WE cents-and a good cigar
could be had then for a nickle. Upon
one occasion this man went into his
usual store and called for a cigar.
In return, as he lighted the cigar, he
threw upon the counter a trouser
button that had peeled off a few
minutes before. The tobacconist
threw the button into the cash draw
er without comment and the Gus
toner went on his way. The next
day, however. the customer return
ed, bought a cigar and threw on
the counter a dime. As change he
was given the button. And that lit
tie game was kept up for weeks.
without comment on either side; but
Il is not recalled who was the last
holder OF the button.
So II is in respect TO the money
OF Central America and the South
Sea Islands. Anything will answer
for money as between men who
know and trust each other That
is why IL can be set down that the
value Of money tokens is largely
mental. During a journey Of sew
en- months. touching many lands,
only four bits OF gold were seen by
the chronicler Two Of those pieces
were English half sovereigns. They
were the property OF an Australian
bound from Sydney TO London. He
came 10 the chronicler one morn
ing, handing him the gold pieces
with the request; 4 wish you would
keep these for me as / am spend
ing too much" The responsibility
was assumed until the boat reached
Bombay, when the Australian used
a letter Of credit and could then go
on spending. The other two pieces
OF gold were received on board the
steamer bound from Liverpool to
New York. when the pursuer was
asked to break" a twenty-pound
bank note.

finds it difficult to get the hang"

knowledge Of values in order to pre-
vent the money-changers from ex-
acting heavy tolls. Yet when one
is travelling the matter Of money Of
distant lands matters but little. The
assumption always is that something
must be lost in an exchange dicker.
although in England and Australia
the banks are scrupulously honest
In their exchanges. American bank
notes are as good as gold in most
parts Of the world and are a source
OF profit when one wishes 10 have
on hand coins or notes OF a strange
land. BY exchanging American
money for rupees. annas, francs or
shillings a profit is obtained, but
the wise traveller regulates his sup
ply OF foreign money so as TO have
but little to retransfer back to Amer
ican money, before starting for
home.
In the Central American countries
the bank notes in use are for the
most part filthy nag-like bits, often
stuck together with thin paper and
bearing in evidence a long term Of
service. In Tahiti and Raratonsa
the paper money is Of the same
type, and a man. may have a bundle
of the notes OF either Of those is
lands and yet not be wealthy.
After all it does not matter what
form money assumes. or the num-
ber Of microbes a bit Of paper con-
tains, so long as 1t can be exchanged
for what one wants or has to buy.
Although New Zealand Is only 1900
miles or so distant from Australia
II is found in Sydney that the banks
do not keep supplied with either
or New Zealand money.
Thus IL is so often difficult for the
visitor about TO leave TO obtain
home" money in return for Aus
tralian money. The New Zealand
piece is current in Austria

.dea holds good in New Zealand in
respect to Australian money. One

Dear Editor of the Mansfield
Mirror and our many friends at

find this the most beautiful co.
untry we have ever seen. We
had a very pleasant trip and saw
many beautiful sights although
the desertswere something fierce
just like facing a hot oven. We
stayed all night at Saligman,
Ariz., and it was almost cold
enough for frost and by 1000
o'clock that day we were in a real
desert and at 800 we were at
Topock at the California line and
it was 1l9 in the shade We took
supper the Cinfetter camp grou
nd, II miles beyond Needles Cal,
and we drove most all night, and
at midnight it was ITO, we stop.
ped for breakfast at about 700
o'clock, and by that il was a
little more like civil zitio1, andwe
landed at our destination that
night. We are in about II miles
of the ocean and we certainly
have a fine climate here the days
are very pleasant and the eve
nings are very cool and nice, and
you cant 60 out nights with out a
wrap.
They raise most all kind of
vegetables here and the prime
iple crops here are: Barley,
Alfalfa. Beans and Sugar Beets,
and Chile peppers there is lots
of Orange and English Walnut
trees and intact all kinds of fruit,
and the finest roads most all
paved, it sure is a pleasure to
have them. We are not among
strangers by any means, THERE'S
about 20 families of Missourians

We like the country fine though
there Is a warm spot in our
hearts for dear old Missouri.
We are certainly missing the

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot
Be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by a constitutional
remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is causedby
an infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is iniamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing and when it
is entirely closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the Inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases OF deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an inflamed condition
OF the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Medicine acts thru the blood on the mu
cous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any cast of atarrhal D eafness that a
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine.
