Good Enough for Him.

“Yes, air,” said the monometallist as he threw down a cart-wheel dollar to pay for a piece of beef, “yes, sir, the Government ought to call in every one of these eighty-cent dollars.” “Eighty-cent dbllars! Why do yon call them eighty-cent dollars?” “Because they aint worth a cent more; not a cent more.” “Well, then you w 11 please give me twenty cents with this dollar, for the price of that piece of meat is one dollar. ” “Twenty cents?” “Yes; you say the dollar you offer me is worth only eighty cents.” “Oh, but the Government makes it worth a dollar.” —“All right; if the Government makes it worth a dollar, it is goo.d enough, for me.”— Boston Courier.
