There is,a demand in some parts of the country for
new coins of small denomination. It is due to the unset
tlement of prices. Many things that formerly cost a nickel
now cost six or seven cents; things that used to cost a
t ime now cost 12 or 1: . cents, etc. One city wants a seven
cent piece to facilitate the payment of street car fares.
Other suggestions call for the revival of the old two-cent
and three-cent pieces.
This, however, is rather futile. Experience in the
past has proved that all ordinary needs of currency can
be met by the simple system of ones and fives. It is no
great hardship to use two, three or four pennies for the
fractional parts of a nickel and one-dollar bills for frac-
tions of a five dollar bill. The two-dollar note survives,
imt it is used comparatively little. Larger payments are
generally in even multiples of five or ten. This system is
the product of evolution, resulting from billions of exper
iences in making change... It will hardly be altered now.
The minting of new fractional coins would probably
be useless for another reason. There is no assurance that
the prices are going to stay where they are. They keep
right on mounting. Thus a street-car fare wheh is seven
.vnts now may be 10 cents next year.
The nickel may practically take the place of the penny.
- cent will then amount to about as little as it has for
years in Holland, where it takes 100 "cents" to make 40
f p.Ms' in American money, or in liermany, where it takes
l.XJ pennies or "pfennigs" to make an American quarter-
Cellar, or the farthing in England, which is now little
. "ore than a tradition.
There are parts of the country where the nickel is
alrtady virtually the minimum coin. It may soon be so
everywhere, and pennies and other subordinate coins will

It is an excellent plan. Ships or boats always appeal

HARD TIMES.
The Germans are disgusted, the ir blood for weeks has
boiled; their fondest hopes are busted, their faith in man
is spoiled. They say, "Our luck is rotten; we thought our
wartime sins ami crimes would be forgotten, if we wore
1 ious grins; we thought our protestations of sorrow and
regret would cause the allied nations to wilt, already yet.
Instead of which thev soak us, demand our. stock and
htore; upon the field they broke us, in peace they break us
more. And so the German bailers his future for his past;
we are the modern martyrs, ach himmel and dodgast."
We hear the German whining, who swaggered every hour,
when on his helm was shining the sun of pomp and power.
If he had been the victor, if he had done us brown, dog
pone his ugly pictur', what terms would he lay down?
Would he be strong for mercy? He's not that kind of
pent; but, swollen i'p nd pursy, he'd take our bottom
cent. He'd shoot us full of bullets, and give us grievous
hurts, and eat our best spring pullets, and swipe our Sun
day shirts. With Germans for our masters we'd know
what hard luck is; environed by disasters, we'd sadly sigh,
'"Gee whiz !" We hear the German grumbling and leefing
;it his lot; he thinks the terms are humbling, and all that
