Thk time for Christmas shopping is drawing to a cIom", and those of our readers who have failed to avail themselves of the advantages offered i.y the local merchants, should read carefully the announcements In these columns before making purchases. The HKKAM) advertisers are reliable, and their varied display of holiday i-odg is not surpassed by those of any town In the county.

True, some f the Republican leaders need all the 'reform' our editorial brother can administer, in allopathy doses, and these elTorts are worthy of commen dation ; but why not begin at the other end of the string ?" Production of Gold and Silver. The report just issued by the direc tor of the French mint contains some important facts on the coining of gold and silver. The production of monetary units In the mints of France has been steadily increasing for a number of years. In 1804. the ntun ber of pieces of money coined for France, her colonies, and foreign .-.mntries was 40,000,000 ; in 1805, 51, niHUHMi : in 1800. 62,000,000 ; In 180' Ut.onO.OOO; and in 1888. 98,000,000 The mint can double this output. Russia alone has had $2,000,000 coins struck in France since 1800. The French mint has also done work during the past two years for Indo China, Tunis, Ethiopia, Morocco and Bolivia. The quantity of gold produced dur ing the last fifteen years Is placed at 13,000,000,000 francs, or,in round num bers, $2,500,000,000, of which amount the Transvaal is credited with a pro duction of 2,000,000,000 francs ($880,- 000.000). It is believed that not less than 200,000 pounds have been used in the arts. The weight of gold struck annually Into coins varies between C00.0O0 and 1,320,000 pounds. The quantity recoined is to be added to this. But in spite of the increase in the output, a well-known economic writer declares that the war in the Transvaal will cause a scarcity of the metal in many commercial centres, the result being a great falling oil in the quantity used In the arts. The report notes a constant in crease In the output of silver. The writer just quoted, in speaking of this, says : "No one can see where the masses of silver are going which oontinue to pour out upon the world, or where they are to be used. The old 15i standard Is now but a myth, and the price has fallen from 880 francs for 1 kilogram ($42.46 per 2.8046 pounds) of tine silver to 100 francs ($19.80). In the presence of such a decrease in price, one would expect a diminution in production; but the case is just the reverse. The faet that the yield steadily increases proves that pre vailing'rates are remunerative." The production of silver has risen from 3,000 tons in 1888 to 8,000 tons in 1898. Of this, it is estimated that 2,350.000 pounds are absorbed in the arts and general industry, divided among countries as follows : In the United States, 580,000 pounds; In Frauce, 330,000 pounds; the same in lOHMSorrs THEY CURE!
