Money I'm China and Egypt.

Coins were made in China so long ago, it
is said, as the year 2250 b. c., but they
could not have been other than portions of
metal cast into portable shape, such as
were all the earliest moneys In Egypt,
the cradle of civilization and commerce,
strange to say. there was no imperial
coinage. Copper, silver and gold were
used as elsewhere, to indicate values,
but they were manufactured into Jumps
shaped sometimes like brick, and in the
case of gold and silver were nodded in
rings, like the ancient Irish money
of ten centuries ago. 1t appears al
most inconceivable that people who
created the pyramids and erected such
magnificent temples should have been en-
tirely ignorant of coins.
Yet it is certain from the statements OF
Herodotus that such was the case. The
first coinage of money in Egypt was not
struck to assist the Egyptians themselves
in their commercial dealings, but rather
because the foreign merchants with whom
they traded the Greeks and the Phone
clans, demanded some media which would
have the guarantee of it's value apparent
on it and which would circulate for that
value.-Brooklyn Eagle

The evil repute of Halifax implied in
the adage go to HalifaxP' came to it by
inheritance from Halifax in Yorkshire,
England. Halifax law, as may be gathered
from letter of Lord Leicester quoted by
Motley, was that criminals should be con
demned first and inquired upon after
ward"
Halifax lay within the forest of Hard
wick, where the law was that if a felon
was taken with 1879 pence worth of stolen
goods he should be tried by four firth bur
gers from four of the precinct towns, and
if condemned by them be hanged the next
day. After this proceeding had been car
ried out to the letter the case might be
sent to jury.
Halifax is also credited with being the
home of the guillotine, which the regent,
Earl Morton. introduced into Scotland
only to have his own head chopped off
with it.-St. Louis Republic.

The Source of the Danpbe


The little town of Donaueschingen.
perched high in the invigorating air of the
Black Forest, has been arbitrarily desig-
mated the source of the Danube. The
prince who owns most of the land in the
neighborhood has built an ornamental
stone basin for very powerful spring that
gushes out close to his palace and has
erected a portentous slab, notifying all the
world that this is the genuine source of
the greatest of European streams, that it
is 2, $40 kilometers to the Black sea and 67S
meters above tide water.
ventured to point out to an intelligent
Black Forester who stood with me by this
monument that the real source of the
Danube was higher up, but he regarded
my statement as outrageous. "Gott in
Himmel" said he piously. Here lives
the prince, here is his palace, here is the
official statement cut in the stone. What
more do you want~
was silenced. but could not help feeling
that if an enterprising promoter could Sc
cure some other prince, get up stock COM
pany, hire spring farther up, build a
summer hotel, call the place Danube High
Spring" or Danube Source Original"
carve it in stone and make the rival prince
hold court at the summer hotel, in three
seasons Donaueschingen would be bank.

THE RAIN.

We knew it would rain, for all the morn
spirit on slender robes of mist
Was lowering its golden buckets down
Into the vapory amethyst
OF marshes and swamps and dismal fens,
Scooping the dew that lay in the flowers,
Dipping the jewels out of the sea,
To sprinkle them over the land in showers.
We knew it would rain, for the poplars
showed
The white of their leaves, the amber grain
Shrunk in the wind, and the lightning now
Is tangled in the tremulous skeins of rainl
