CITL. OF MEXICO, May 25. Hav
ing mado a ten-cent purcRase, the
resident ot Mexico City, extends the
store-keeper a 50-centavo or one
pfcso bill. Ho waits for change. The
clerk, fumbling In his pocket or the
cash drawer, produces a stack of
stroot car tickets. The proper change
is counted out, In tickets, the custo
mer pockets them and the transac
tion is completed.
Such is tho situation in Mexico to
day as regards small change.
Time was, a few weeks ago, when
the customer would grumble at the
slbht of tram tickets given In ev
chango for real money and tickets
for which ho had no earthly ' use.
But one must learn .to expect any
thing in Mexico nnd having learned
to expect it become reconciled to it.
The situation is Improving, how
over. Not thnt there Is any prospect
ot an tncreaso in the amount of
small change Tho outlook In thnt
respect is ns gloomy as ever but tho
tradesmen have agreed to accept tho
tickets ns legal tondor. Whon every
one in town hnd acquired so much
"change" thnt there was no nood of
walking, evon for a block, tho rest
of one's natural life, tho merchants
docided that It was only fair thnt
they talto sonw of it br.c'.r.
So now tho senor-nbout-iown pays
for his cocktnils In tram ducats and
