Statesmen and financiers are at
the present tilne scouring the world
for new supplies of gold, for there
is .a serious shortage of bullion. All
the same, there is an enormous
amount of British coin remaining

Passing from hand to hand
United Kingdom are sovereigns
and half -sovereigns having a total
value' of £113,000,000. That is
say, technically speaking, there is
that amount es gold coin in circula-
tion, although it includes the
amount of gold held at the banks
in their coffers. ,
All the same, thus is nothing like
the value; d the gold which has
been turned out by the Mint and
that received ` for remaking. In
fact, it has been stated by a recog-
nized authority that in three reoent
years the Bank of England has lost
trace of something like £20,.000,000
worth ,of golden coins,
' ENGLISH PREFERRED:
What, then, becomes d this mon-
ey? Every year the Mint, through
the medium sof the Bank of England,
sends out an enormous amount
gold coin, :and yet receives bask
only a portion of the whole.
One reason for the disappearance
is that throughout the world the
English sovereign is held in the
highest esteem 0 all coins. Thus
on the Continent the writer has
frequently met with refusals tos
cash German and other gold coins,
but never in any country has he had
the slightest difficulty in changing
English gold. Not only is this the
case, but the highest value is al-
ways attached to our gold coins.
Most of the British gold which is
lost gees out to India. There the
people hoard it up, and frequently
it is the ease that a man dies with-
out giving any information as to
where his treasure has been. de-
posited. In this way it is calculated
that in. the Presidency of Bombay
alone some £12,000,000 is hoarded
in the form of .sovereigns and half -
sovereigns..
From this fact it may be imagined
what an enormous amount of Bri-
tish gold there mutt be in the
whole of India. The natives o
dia also use •sovereigns and half-
sovereigns as ornaments, partly for
the 'good reason that in times 0
stress th•ornaments may be turned
to a more useful purpose without
any loss.

CAREFUL DOCTOR.
Iii the ,hermitage Mu,seuna 0 St,
Petersburg there is a very sinoientd
papyrus, nearly 5,000 years old,
which contains astory reminding
one, isays a writer in ±the Raja Yoga
Messenger, of the adventures 0 the
famous Sindbad in the "Arabian
Nights:"
The hero, a very ancient mariner,
begin,& by saying that he was one 0
a band of 150 fearless adventurers,
"whose 'hearts were stronger than
lions, and who had seen heaven and
earth." They were on their way to
the Mines of Pharaoh in a ship 0
150 cubits, but ill fate awaited
them, forpresently. the wind rosee

HOARDING IT UP.
The inhabitants of China also•
show a striking partiality for our
.. golden discs: The same tale conies
4, . even from the goldfields in East Af-
rica. As a matter 0 fact, the
na-
tives are never paid in gold coins,
for the reason that the money
would be taken out of circulation at
once, and it is a costly job convey-
ing,coin into the baoklands.
Again, a certain amount 0 coin
is taken out of circulation in this
country by jewellers and similar
craftsmen. When •a jeweller re-
quires a piece 0 gold for making an
ornament he takes a new gold coin.
There is a good reason for this, as
the coin, practically speaking, is
exactly the value of a piece of un-
worked gold, and so the jeweller
loses' nothing by taking a coin in
preference to a piece 'of bullion.
Another

Every one perished but the hero,
who was washedashoreon a pieoe
0 wood. He found himself strain.d
ed upon an island, but it was no
desert. There were fruits and good-
ly herbs and many other fine
things. Tle sailor had been piously
brought up, for after enjoying a
good meal he made an offering to
the gods.
Immediately the marvels began,
and it is clear that the good char-
acter ofthe hero saved him from
destruction, for the. next thing he
saw was a huge serpent 0 terrible
aspect, :his body overlaid with gold
and his color a bright blue. How-
ever, the serpent did him no harm,
but politely asked chow he ,had
reached the island. '
Being satisfied with the answer,
the king d the serpents, for it was
no lest& a personage, carried the
sailor in his mouth to a place where
there was a tribe of seventy-five
other serpents. The serpent ling
said : "If thou hast come to me it
is God Who has let you live. It is
He Who has brought you to rbhi.s Isle
of the Blest, where nothing is lack-
ing and which is filled with all good

The serpent then told him to be

three months. Our Egyptian Sind -
bad spent much of this time waatch-
.ing for the ship from the top of a
tall tree. At last it arrived, and
the first thing he did. was to run to
the king serpent to tell him. His
surprise. was great when he found
that the serpeiit knew all about it,.

Prescribed Change 0 Food Instead
of Drugs.
It takes considerable courage for
a \doctor to deliberately prescribe
only food for a despairing patient,
instead of resorting to the usual
list of medicines.
There are some truly scientific
physicians among the present gen-
eration who recognize and treat
conditions as they are and should
be treated, regardless of the value
to their pockets. Here's an in-
stance : _ r
"Four years ago go I. was taken
with severe `gastritis and nothing
would stay on my stomach, so that
I was on the verge 0 starvation.
"I heard of a doctor who had a
summer cottage near me—a speci-
alist from N. Y.—and as a last hope

THE DAILY BATH.
The bath habits of Britishens have
been thoroughly ,investigated at a
congress of the Royal Sanitary In-
stitute, and Dr. Quine maintains
that the wash -hand basin is the sole
washing vessel in daily use by ap-
proval -lately forty millions of peo-
ple. Referring to na'tn.onalities,
Dr. Quine declares that Sootslne
bathe more often than. any other
race. . Englishmen come second,
Trial -man third. ; Frenchmen and
'Germans appear at the bottom of
the doctor's list. Those who take
a cold bath every day. appear to be
restricted ' to the type of public
school men, and then mostly yonung'
and early middle-aged. As yearrs.s
increase the . daily habit seems
decline. Military men as a 'class
;lead with the daily bath. ``There
•,
is no reason to ,suppose,,adds' Dr.
Quine, "that the presence of medi-
cal men in tturnbers in a town un-
duly taxes the bathing accommoda-
tion, and ithe average of daily bath-
ers among c'1ergyiinen does not seem

ng
and
study Prof. Gottlieb Haberlandt of
the Botanic Institute, of Gratz, in
Styria, declares that plants, the
word taken in its widest sense, and
including trees, can see.
The professor says that he has
euceeeded through photography and
theuse 0 the microscope on the
visual organs of plants. The
images included objects at different
distances, and even persons and
houses. Plaints may, he says, be
classed with the inferior animals in
this respect. His observations have
boon confirmed by Dr. Nuttall and
Dr. Harold Wagner.
We are still so ignorant of ani-
mal,
ni-m ;l, planet and insect life .(because
we do. not understand their lan-
guage) that we fancy the plant, like
the insect, is not conscious of what
it sees, but that is probably a dis-
covery for the future. At present
we are forced to accept the theory
that they are not conscious.
But that they do see, Prof. Haber-
la'nd't says, he has satisfactorily -
proved. We has found the same
minute eye such as belongs to bees
and other insects in sycamore
leaves, in the sugar maple and in
the Peruvian acanthus. The eyes
of plants appear different from the
eyes of insects in that they have
no coloring matter, though this is
not yet determined.
The professor is continuing his
experiment;&, and he expects to
make further interesting and sur-
prising announcements. He says
that plants and trees ;that have
