Limited, will go a long way toward the weakening of ttiia grgu-rnen- t. but it would be ux- - much to say that it will appreciably hasten the triumph cf tbe meter. There can be a question of the superiority of a system of weights au4 measures in which there is a corela-tio- a of the units. In the French system. which has been adopted In all the coumrlea of tbe cirillxed world excepting the British and Russian empires and the Cnlted S'ates of America. the meter 1 the unit of weight and volume as well as cf length. But la our practice the inch and the foot bear no relation whatever to the pound or the quart. Tbe former system 1 thus easier to memurtse. anil the claim would seem to be reasonable that lu general adoption throughput the commercial world would simplify the Iniercougpa of the nations. On the other bnd. although the majority of natlims have declared for the meter, the vastly greater number of people are using tbe old standards, and they are U he found in the great commercial and manufacturing countries of the world. The one dbjectlou that has greatest weight is the practical one of the expense which tbe change would entail. Bomb one ban calculated that to lit a modern machine shop employing 250 hands with the new patterns, dies and ppilanwa'wimld 'curTl50.TMrw $400 Apply this to the manufactories of this country alone, and the magnitude of the coat becomes appalling. Furthermore, the adoption of the metric system would have to be made by agreement with Great Britain, America's greatest customer, else the utmost confusion would replace existing uniformity. Tbe objection that a change would make useless a great mass of technical literature is lea well founded, for modern science has already adopted the meter, but the mass of formula that at 111 remains and that would have to be translated Is formidable. For a long time to come both systems would have to exist side hr side, at least until tbe demand for Interchangeable 'parts" of American machinery hal been supplied. In this connection It la Interesting to note thst In France In many manufacturing calculations and formulas old standards still linger . If this Is the case after a country of Its origin, what are we to expect In countries where practical obstacles are so formidable? The struggle appears to he between a theory that la unassailable and material conditions that arc well-nigimmovable. The rnetef may ultimately displace the inch, but it will he long before that result is accomplished. Philadelphia Ledger. THE WOLF AND THE LAMB. !.
