Is the paper of which it is made worth 100 cents? Ab a matter of fact, is it not simply be tail 6e the government has agreed to consider it 81? And would not a 16 to 1 dollar be as good as a paper or a gold dollar provided the govern ment would agree to so consider it?" SS5a35 Yorks played a 16 to 1 game day." EITHER WOULD DO.

The difference between coin money and paper money, as recognized by the en tire world, is that coin needs no re demption Co make it good; whereas, without redemption, paper money is utterly worthless. Payment in coin is actual payment, whereas paper money ,. II DIUipiJ SIlUCUtD Ul a UD1HIDU Va3 ' ment. Whenever a paper dollar is passed from one person to another it is done with the full knowledge that the thing passed is purely vicarious and without value in itself, but is accepted in lieu of actual value on the strength of somebody's promise to, soorer or Tbe Hne8t ice crpam par,or8 inthe later, replace it with coin. The promise city are at 1211 O St. "Ephemar." is the only valuable thing about it. A coin dollar, on the otber band, passes from hand to hand, upon its own merits, as a thing of actual value and without a moment's thought of what will eventu ally bpcoFift nf it.
