And this amount of shrinkage is likewise not dependent on the amount of pro<iuc- tion, but, like the ajnount useif in the artd, is more or less of a fixed fcetor. It is an Imtiortant factor. Coo. for the wor.d's stock of gold money has not increa.sed in anything like the proixjr- l.i>n which might be expecteii from the increased production of this century.

It was nearly twenty-five timea as much as n'aa produced in the first years of this century, when the pre- sent single gold standard was estab- lished in England. \ GOLD FAJUNE IMPOSSIBLE.

As you lookback English reviews, in a ponderous effort ( to the first deca^les of this era and to 1* sensational, printed a numljer of ' note the amount of gold then possess articles on a prospective gold " fam- ine." There was, they said, to be "a scram- ble for gold," and a great many things Were going to happen in consequence thereof. While these prophecies of dis- aster filled the air, the tide of gold production was rising at a rate un- known to this generation. In l!^lj7 all the world turned out but $106,000,000. In 1890 it was only $7.UO0.(;0O more. In the five or seven years since the •upply has been doubled. It was $153,- 000 000 in 1893. $17U,00O,U0o m 1849. and $203,000,000 laat year. Indeed, the pro- duction for 1895 equalled the entire pro- duct of any two decades down to 1840. In other words, as much of the yellow meta! was produced in one year as in twenty. The enormous increase came about in the most unobtrusive and surprising way. It was not due to the discovery of new gold fields, nor waai it dus to the dosing of the mints against sil- Ter.nor to any wonderful new 'strikes." The revival began ou the one hand ed by the different nations, it seems hardly more than i mite compared with thi- present enormous noard. Thus, in ISIO, wnen. after th« long Napoleonic wars, England established Its currency on a single gold ba^is. it is estimated that to put tie new s>stem into effect alxjuc one hundrexi" and twenty-five miilions were required,and yet so scarce was the yellow metal th n that the drain caused by Eng- land's demand was so great that guld aK-io'utely disappeared trom circulation in the L'nitetl States, and the same was comparatively true of Continent- al Europe. The world's production of gold for that year, 1!*16, was only about seven millions, and probably the total stock of gold money possessed by the chief commercial nations was not then more than two hundred millions. Now the t. nire<l Statee alone has something like six hundred anJ sixty-one millious.the t'nited Kingdom of Great Britain some five hundred and forty millions, Ger- many six hundred ami eighteen mil- lions.

DANdERS OF ICE WATER. COOLING DRINKS AND HOW THEY MAY SAFELY BE USED. Ic« Water Itraak Raplillr Will faaie â- <'klllâ€" Haw Wairr in Cuulnl In IIm Ejwi â€"A nlBiple Way (• Ti-nt the Waler- Dansrr i'rant Old WrIU. The seaaon of excessive heat sure to occur at some period of the summer always sets afloat in the press con- siderable discussion concerning sum- mer beverages. Of these the m<ist im- portant is pure water, frequently water cooled with ioe, and we are warned with more or leas emphasis to abstain from its free use under certain p*"*'- ties. As to ioe waterâ€" that is, water in which ice is constantly melting â€" we would join in the interdict, unless it is drunk with proper caution and with an understanding of its true dangers. These are, first, the smlden flooding of the stomach with a large quantity of icy fluid wh.'n the body is oppreasetl with heat; the natural temperature of the stomach is 102 Fahrenheit, and that of ice water is 32. The half pint or more of ice water drunk rapidly cannot fail to cause a chill. Second, when the fluid is taken profusely it may drive the biood to the brain and through the capillaries in such ex- cess as to ocx-asion uongestion. The third, and more remote danger from the use of ice water, even in moderate quantities, is from infected ice ; freezing does not alw ays destroy poisi'nous germs as boiling does, and the ice may be gathered from water contaminated with the drainage from baj-ns or outhouses or from sewage de- posits. Pure water placed in an ice- box, in a covered pitchej; or stoppered carafe, will become COoI enough to drink in a short time. Some of the improved refrigerators contain a por- celain water tank for maintaining a Loniinuous supply of cool drinking water. Water in a POROLS EARTHEN JAR. pla<.-ed in a draught of air. will rapid- ly cool to a pleasant temperature. This IS the method followed lor cuoling wa- ter in the East. Such porous j ars are now sold in the Oriental stores in all our large cities. Cool water slowly drunk, so that the mouth and throat are cooled by its ab- sorption, may be taken freely and at comparatively short intervals. Small biis of ice can be eaten without injurv. A sharp pain at the back of the neck, at the base of tl>6 brain, or at the supraorbital spaces, alxjve the eyes, imticaies a chill of the nerves, and Warns against further eating of ice or drinking of ice water. It is like eating ices and sherbets; the safety lies in the length of time occupied in consuming the fluid. The celebrated si-i.-uiist Slattieu VVilliims drank three gallons of spring water during a stiff mountain climb without any ill effect. He imbibed slowly and suflere<l no in- convenience. Not only in ice. but in water, must we look for sewage contamination. Sometimes the purest in appearance is dangerous from this cause. The sim- plest lest is that of Heischâ€" put a teaspoouful of pure louf sugar in a clear, gl^iss-stoppered bottle; add about a half pint ot the wiater to be tested; close the bottle, shake it to dissolre the sugar, and place it in a sunnv window for two dajs. If there is anv miiky or cloudy appearance, the water may be considered impure : if it re- mains clear, it may be used without au.xiety. Filtering will remove solid impurities from water, but lo overcome poisonous conditions ONLY BOILING will suffice. As some persons consider boiled water insipid, it may be aerated by rapidly pouring it from" one pitcher to another in an atmosphere free from dust. Water that has remained in un- covered vessels in living rooms is not fit to drink. The Japanese or Chin- ese water coolers protect drinking wa- ter from all contamination by dust or the air. and also keep crackeil ice un- melted for a long time. The manufac- tured ice now in general use is free from germs of disease, and mav Iw used safely with distilled or filtered water. The water from old wells in towns that have grown in population is apt to cause local epidemics from the or- ganic matters filtered through the ground from drain.s and sinks, such wa- ters cause diarrhoea and dangerous fev- ers. When there is no other water available it ^%ould Ije lietter to col- lect rainwater, allowing the first wash- ing from the ro<jf to pass out of the tank; but this slight accumuliiiou of dust would Ije louiparatively inniK-u- ous. Rainwater n»Mr cities iuipht ac- cuiuulal,e organic deposits from the atmosphere near the sea. Rain falling far from dwellings contains oxygen, nitrogen, ammonia, and carl».>uic" acid among its chemical elements; tlvit which is gathered toward the end of a storm is the pirf:st and best. Water from melted snow- is pure, but apt to he insipid btvause of its freedom from mineral elements and gases. Of the well and spring waters, the soft contain potash and soila ; the hard waters contain lime, magnesia, the phosphates, and sulphates; they are apt to disturb the iligestive or- gans. By boiling hard water, the ob- jectionable elements can be precipitat- ed, and the pure water may then be IHiured from the sediment. In I'oiiking. the lime or gypsum of hard water hardens vegetalHe ciuseino; succulent vegetables would soften loo much in soft water if salt were not added to it. losing flavor and nutri- ment. From a s;initary point of view, pure, moderately hard waters are brighter, clearer, and cooler th^vn soft waters, and loss apt to absorb organic life or aiutagion of any sort ; the lime in small quantity is wholesome. Gov- ernnionl comuil,s.si<>ns in Eiu'ope have decided on moderately hard water as favouring longevity.

Kul Like Bolb. The "missing link" that scientists have been searching after ever since Mr. Darwin announced his theory of the des- cent of man from the lower animals, Ls at last found. There have recently been uncovered in Java hy a French scientist, M. Du'uois. a thigh Ixme, part of a skull and two molar teeth that seem without doulx to be the fragments of one of these extinct mau..apes. The teeth are as much larger than Che teeth of the African as the negro's teeth are larger than the European's. The thigh bone la the size of that bone in the average man of to-day. The skull is about the average in point of brain capacity betw^een tile average Eu- ropean and the highest ape. The femur or thigh bone is said to be unquestionably human. Aulborities differ as Co Che cbaraccer of the skull and teeth. Shall they 1* called human or apish? The answer can only be defi- nitely given when ail the steps in the change from man Co ape are in evi- dence and the dividing lina convencioa- I ally estai.'llshed. 1 A SCIENTIST'S OPINION. Prof. S. E. rilUnan. wriiini; in the Cosmopolitan, says about the Java dis- coveries : I "The consensus of scientific opinion. ^ however, decides that all the remains must be regarded as uuman. It cannot ' be definitely determined from this find ' alone, but it is probable that this so- ! called Pithecanthropus (erect ape) is the lowest human form yet found, and is one of the "missing links" connecting I man with earlier and less human forms, and that be stands a long way off from i man on the line leading to these forms. I 'Ihis stat'-ment should not ix uoder- t stood as implying any direct connection i etween ex sting man and existing apes, for it is pretty certain that while Loth Of th'-se may lie traced to a common ! ancestor. Ihey have not travelled the same path from that ancestor Co Che present, and no disi'overy will ever brldgw the chasm between them." Till now the argument for the na- tural desL'ent of man has l>een one rath- . er of probability than proof. But it has not lieen weak. In one at the Har- ' vard mu.<<eums is a loi>g glass ca.se ; that catches the attention of the pass- , ing visitor and holds it. Behind the ' gla« is a row of mounted human and human-like skeletons. The line of white bleaihed skulls grins fixedly at the sightseer. The orthodox visitor shud- I ders; th" Uarw inian smiles in triumph; I the cynical-minded chuckles. iVt rh-' head of the row is the frame I of a Eiirop."an. The line gfoes down ' through ihe nk:e9 to the Bushman and then im to the gorilla wii h hardly a I more noticeable step down than that which was taken from the type next ! alx>ve. That white, grinning" row not i only proi-laims ih>' tirotherbood of ojan, .but it is extremely suggestive of ih» brotherhood of all the animal king- dom. Now. however, conclusive evidence is coming in, and the si-i»u(LsC may talk i of proofs.

Three G-reat Remedies Sure Specifics for Kidney, Rhea- matic and Stomach Diseases. These remedies are not a cure-all for all the ills that flesh is heir to. Tbs great South American Kidney Curs does not cure rheumatism, nor is it » specific for indigestion, but no remeflj, pills or powders, will give relief in the most distressing cases of kidney Croubls as will South American Kidney Cure. Mr. D. J. Locke, of Sberbrooke. Que., suffered for three years from kidney trouble, expending in that time 9100 on doctor's medicines. He got oo relief until he used South American Kidney Cure, and four bottles he says, effect- ed a permanent cure. When a remedy is needed for rheu- mat ism. it is very much neededâ€" and Suickly. William Pegg. of Norwood, nt.. was nearly duublvd up with rheu- matism and suffered intensely. 'This was in ltii>3. He tixik three bottles ol South .\merican Rheumatic Cure, and now says: " I have had neither achaa nor pains from rheumatism since that time." When disease effects the digestive or- gans and general debility takes bold of the system, these cannot be removed unless the medicine taken gets at the root of the trouble. South American Nervine owes its sin;cess to the fact that it works directly on the nerve centres, and removing the trouble there it rids the system of disea-se. Banker John Boyer, of Kincardine, who suffered from indigestion for years, was permanent- ly cured bv the use of South American Nervine.

A roar which swelled into a tor- ' rent broke ou the air, and as the num- ber was hoisted a noise, the tike of which Fpsom Downs has never known, .seemed to envelop the course. In an instant the course from Tatten- haiu Corner to the paddock became a mass of blackness, and so dense was the crowd that men were carried off their legs. All seemed drunk with excite- ment, and when the Prince appeared ou the step.s, holding bis hat, the en- thusiasm reached a climax. He descend- ed the steps and went out on the course, still hat in baud, lo meet the winner. So vast was the throng that it was nearly five minutes Liefore Fer- i simmoiu got in, each horse having to Iv preceded liy a luounted constable.
