u. S. Gold Cheaper

he would have been wiser to I'LL his
pockets with bills before leaving home
instead Of loading them down with gold
pieces. 1t would have saved him lot
OF money.
He walked into the bank and laid
on the counter some American bank
notes, some silver dollars and some IS
gold pieces.
For every dollar bill he got sl.1s in
Canadian money. For every dollar in
silver he got S1.08. For every dollar in
gold he got dollar In Canadian cur
rency-just that and nothing more.
He protested what he termed the dis
elimination against gold In favor Of
paper, but the banker explained:
"Your gold pieces are worth no more
to us than Canadian gold pieces of the
same face value. We viii give s5 in
Canadian bills for s5 Canadian gold
piece, and we can give no more for an
American gold piece Of the same
amount"

And by the way" added the banker.
you win have TO leave the gold here

out OF Canada without a government
license"
The saddest blow Of all win come
when the American returns TO his own
country. That's when he viii feel the

into Canada, he got s5 In Canadian
paper money. When he exchanges that
for American money he will get con.

Speaking before the Boston Chamber

In the past such condition has
always been the beginning of busi-

that the election is over We have had
