While many thing have been used as muney the medium of exchange, domes-ic and national silver and gold, possessing intrinsic value and conven ient forms, hmr ago became the most universal.

MOXEY AND PROSPERITY. Then came the discovery of gold and silver on the Pacific slope, and soon afterward gold in Australia, and at a time when civilization waa at a stand still and the wheels of progress clogged for the want of money." The average annual product of mines in the world, in 1850, was $40,000,000 now 200, 000,000, five times greater than forty years ago!. Enough fo vitalize and re vive all of our industries, if turned into legitimate channels. But for the demonetizing of silver in Europe and the United States, the cur rency of the world would be,-arJUore adequate to the' wants of the people than it is under mouometalism. The -financial legislation of the United States and of Europe, in favor of the creditor class the holders of and striv ers after accumulated wealth in he treatment of silver, has checked indus trial progress and low ered the price and income from labor; causing industry and enterprise to languish by enhanc ing the value f money and securiti s in contracting the circulating medium. The volume of currency now in the United States is entirely inadequate to the necessities of the people les.s than 35 per cent, of what it was in 1865. It vas then 840.37. Now only 17 29 per capita. Any wonder, then, this money stricture lias throttled industry to swell the profits of capitalist? A little more contracting and tightening of the financial rope, and the goose which has laid golden eggs will have all the life squeezed out of her (?) HISTORY IS AGAIN REPEATING ITSELF As the money and wealth of the na tions center into the hands of the few. The first act in the progress backward was by England's ceasing to coin sil ver iu1815. But. whut else could we expect of an aristocratic parliament, unrestrained by popular representation, but to obi?y the behests ot the money power? The purchasing power of gold is ncreased, as money becomes scan.e and the products of labor cheap, in the ratio of constriction in the . irculation, "England is largely a creditor country. or (leois payaoie in gold, ana any j change which entails a rise in the price of commodities generally; that is to say, a diminution of the purchasing power of gold, would' be' to her disadvantage."

There are a great many careless peo ple where furniture is concerned. Yet good furniture is really not cheap, but if properly cared for, it will last a long time. In sweeping a room, the furni ture should be covered up with cloths before the sweeping commences. She is, indeed, a careless housekeeper who will allow the dust to be swept over the furniture, to make its way into the cloth coverings, there to stay for it is almost impossible to dislodge it. Many a good set of furniture has been ruined in this way. Chairs should not be drawn sok cl se to the fire jus to blister them, for this is an injury hard to repair. Neither rh-juld 'finely-polished furniture be "dusted with toarse "clotlfor "common feather dusters; an old silk handker chief makes an admirable duster for this purpose. Furniture should not be allowed to grow sdnbbv, without an effort being made to brighted it up. A little polish works wonders and is very easily ap plied, and it the furniture is of good quality it is better to renovate it than to turn it out aud peih .ps, put new furniture of a poorer quality in its pi ice. There is a great Ileal of utterly worthies? furniture sold, and the pur chaser shoul t be wary when selecting. There is more economy in good furni ture than in poor, and (t has the merit of looking belter, too. Some of the furniture old is simply stuck together, it is not made: some again is construct ed of unseasoned wood, while a great deal is faulty regarding sinning and r . it ip i -l cjvermg. v eneerea iurniinre is unde sirable as. the veneering is always fall ing off. Good, solid furniture is the best. Rosewood is the most beautiful and taty of all woods ted for furni ture though it is the most costly. If carefully treated it retains its good looks a long time, and it should be kept well polished in order to secure this end. No wood combines more beautifully with plush than this Walnut is deservedly popular, as it i looks well and is lasting; moreover, it is not hard to keep in order. When' oiled, -walnut looks dull; it can be brightened up with the following: Put in a bottle a pint of linseed oil, out ounce of butter of antimony, and half a gill of vinegar. Mix all to gether, and shake the bottle before using. If black walnut has been var nislid, take of shellac two paits, and boiled oil one part; mix well and apply i with a cloth, rubbing brisklv. luk- ! nibbing with a Sof t cloth.

Farrar ' T - . TheJffoon's notation. Those who look upon the moon nigh after night and year after year see no change in the face she presents. The Man in the Moon" is always the same, item and immovable, he looks upon the earth as he has done for ages past, and as he will do for ages to come. The reason for this unchangeable as pect is that-we see only on one side of the moon; aud the- reason why we see but one side is that, whlie she makes one revolution round the earth, she turns once on her axes. The moon's day or period of rotation is, therefore, t he same as her revolution, about twenty-seven days. This is the present condition of affairs m regard to the earth and moon. The ruriu turns on ner axis once in twenty four ours. The moon turns on her ax is once in t wenty-seveti days. If t here are inhabitants on the side of the moon turned toward ns, they can see, at dif ferent times, every' part of the earth's surface. She shines in their sky as a glorious orb, thirteen times as large as the moon in our sky, aud exhibitssirailar phases; while her surfaces is marked with spots shaped like the continents and islands familiary to our terrestrial m ips. The conditions prevailing in t he earth moon system have greatly changed in the lapse of ages; and will greatly change in ages to come. Long ago,. when the moon was young, her fires first burned, she may have rotated on her axis in three or four hours. The earth then raised enormous tides upon her plastic surface. Tides act as brakes retarding axial rotation, and by this means the moon's time of rotation has gradually in creased until it has reached its present length of twenty-seven days. The earth. "too, in her primeval con union turned on ner axis much more rapidly than at present. The moon raises tides upon the earth, and these in their turn have. reduced-the velocity of her rotation until our day is "now twenty-four hours long. As time rolls on, the earth will re- volve on its axis more and more slowly, until after the lapse of millions of years, the -earth's day and the moon's will be equal. When that time comes, the earth -will present always the same side to the moon, and d we! lei's on the other side will nearer see the moon, un less they make a journey for the pur pose. The hands on the dial plate of time move slowly, but none less surely. To day is longer than yesterday, although the aifference is so intiuitesimal that the most accurate mathematicians have been unable to measure it. Iu fact, the period of. the earth's ro- tatiou haji not varied one huudreth of a second in two thousand years. But when two thousand years shall have pitssed the change will be not only per ceptible but considerable. Youth's Companion.
