Eniilo Burd, a Frenchmau, has ail interesting chapter on the money of China in Ills book, "Chinese Life In Town and Country." He explains that the unit of Chinese money Is the tael, which Is not a coin, but a weight of silver—the ounce, of which there are sixteen to the catty and 1,600 to the plcul. The commercial tael is that of Canton, which should weigh 357.783 grains, hut usually weighs 37.58. Then there Is the tael of Shanghai, which weighs ;'.0.*5, and the revenu'tael, used In valuing imports and exports, and each large city has its own, that of Tientsin worth from 4 to <> per cent more than that of Shanghai. Business estimated in taels is carried on by the use of Spanish dollars or silver ingots. The former are weighed and stamped by every south China merchant anil have to be remitted continually. The ingots of silver are cut from bars Into pieces that the operator estimates will weigh 50 taels. Naturally each one who handles them weighs them. "Banks store their money in cellars, In boxes carrie 1 back and forth by coolies," sa; sM. Bard. "This explains tiie item of transportation which is de ducted from the face of a Chinese check when it is < a lied at a bank. One can judge of the complications con vpquent upon this system of con version of taels of dih'erent values into inpjits of din ere: 112 weight and purity, especially as asscv.'rs of different lo calities refuse to i >' or tin' stamps of other cities." In pi ices where the dol lar Is not used small payments are made by cutting up an ingot. "The scale used in weighing these fragments ha : two sets of markings; one for re ceipts and oae for payments." China's national coin Is the cash, a round copper coin with a square hole through It. The cash or sapak dates from at le-st 2300 B. C. Eight pounds* weight of cash makes a dollar. Yea.' - ag i an e iperor decided to d nihle Ills funds by eiviiip copper cash double its value.

A (Vrtnlu Fixi'd Proposition Wn» Ailopteil For Karli Edifice. In constructing their stone edifices the Creeks, who were reasoners and logicians, followed certain rules and adopted for each edifice a certain fixed proportion. What does this mean? It "jeans that the proportions of the dlf | ferent parts of the edifice are simple | proportions which can be reduced to a i common measure. Take as an example the temple of Paestum. The module is the mean radius of the column. This module measures three feet. The col umn is ten times the module, or, say, thlrtj feet. The distance between the axes of the columns is Ave times the module, '.ay. fifteen feet. The total height of the entablature is also fifteen feet, the width of the abacus is three modules, equ;:l to nine feet. It is thus seen that ail thee numbers are multi ples of three, which is the module. In this manner the proportions of the dif i ferent members of an edifice have a ' constant relation to each other. It troo3 without saying that the module varies for each edifice; there Is no single and absolute rule. For In stance, in the I»oric order the length of the column varies from ten to twelve modules, in the lonic order from six teen to twenty-one. The entablature of the Doric order measures five mo dules and that of the lonic only four. — Architect lira 1 Record. OUR OLDEST HOTEL. |t In In Arizona anil Dnten Prom the en tee n tli Century. St. Augustine is the olde-st town In J the I*n I tod States, but the oldest hotel ! In the country, contrary to what one ! would expect, is not in the east at all, j but as far west as Arizona, being slt [ uated in l'henix of that state. It was built In the seventeenth cen tury by the Spaniards, just after the erection of a wonderful governor's palace, which also is to be seen to this day—the famous "Palaclo del Gober . nador." The hotel Is a long, low, one story i lTalr, built of adobe, with a fiat ' roof, low doorways and many paned ' windows. The structure is now rath ! fr dingy in appearance, although it ; was. no doubt, considered really spa : clous and elegant when first erected. AYlien In 1081 the Indians threw off the Spanish yoke the hotel became a temporary fort. Many a successful In dian raid was planned in this very building, and councils of war vere held frequently In the "taproom," as It was called. This old tavern has sheltered such men as Custer, John C. Fremont, Gen ; era I Phil Sheridan. Zebuion Pike, Buf • falo Bill and oth r famous scouts and I plainsmen, la sides many lesser heroes who, in true dime novel fashion, "went west to light Injuns." lIEIEIP1 lEIEIP IS trHMTin •= NEEDED Annually,to (ill the new positions created l>y Kallroafl ;iiul Telegraph Con panies. \Ve want Vnll.Mi MtN and LAIuKS of good habits to LEAR "J TELEGRAPHY N D R R ACCOUNTING \\V furnish 7;, p«*r cent, oft lie (>| era tors and stiition Aclnts in America.

If you are feeling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swanip=koot, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
