"Friends and Ices alike will watch

CHINESE MONEY.
feit, Il 111 It All (lOCM.
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. I:i certain parts of the country
tie perforr nice is still In effect. In
other i ■ rts 77 or sr> cash are counted
as 100.

GREEK ARCHITECTURE.
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. —

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."

Bladder troubles most always result from
a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is
obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you
can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's
Swanip=koot, the great kidney, liver and
bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to hold urine and scald- 1
ing pain in passing it, and overcomes tha'
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to ,
go often during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and sold
by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar
