when the Fever Turned.

Lena was four years old. and the
feminine love for fine clothes was al
ready pretty well developed. Being the
only child in the family, and the special
pet of uncles and aunts who had no
children of their own, when she fell i'll
with scarlet fever there was great
alarm, and night and day the solicitous
family watched by her bedside. One
night when the fever was at the worst
no one retired, but all sat quietly about
the room with fearful eyes waiting for
and expecting the end. Finally there
was sigh and gasp from the bed and
Lena's voice, feeble but clear, broke the
nournful stiffness. "Uncle," it said,
"uncle, come herer' Uncle Immediate
lyabent over the sick child. "Uncle,"
she went on while the weeping friends
listened to hear what might be the last
words, "wont you buy me blue silk
dress with white lace on it," There was a
moments silence, and then Lena's
mother dryly remarked" guess you
may as well all go to bed. She'll get
we'll" And she did. -Springfield Home

Money orders Instead of Savings Bank.

Money Orders Instead of Savings Banks.
Sometimes money orders as much as
twenty years old are sent into the post
office department to be cashed. Queer
people stow them away in desks or other
hiding places, leaving them to be dis
covered in the course Of time by heirs.
OF course they are invalid after one year
from the date of issue, but duplicates
are always issued and paid upon appi-
cation. Actors, and particularly circus
people, have way of utilizing the
money order system as sort of banking
and safe deposit concern. While travel
ing about the country, for example, a
player will buy money order for 800
on New York. making himself the payee
Thus he puts away the sum in place
where no one else can possibly get it.
Before the year is out he may draw the
money and buy another postal order
with it, and so on, thus keeping the cash
secure for an indefinite period. He can
not be robbed A circus clown was ar
rested in town out west with $4,000
worth of money order receipts in his
clothes. Had they been stolen from him
he could easily have got duplicates

Tho Coinage of Money in Franco.

For several hundred years and down
to comparatively recent date, money
was coined at from twenty five to thirty
different cities i'll France that had in
herited the privilege. Now all French
money is coined at the Paris mint and
bears, instead of the efigy Of some dis
tinguished person, a head representing
the republic, or liberty in the more
general sense.
Few French gold pieces are however
in circulation, except those bearing the
head of Napoleon III, and silver pieces
Of the same coinage are almost as COM
mon French silver coins wear admira-
bly, and pieces of the reigns Of Charles
x, Louis XVIII and Napoleon l are

Great Feet for a Horse.

Here is story told by Richard Mel
son, Swamp veteran:
"Years ago we used to keep horses on
the ground floor. A man down the
street had one in his cellar for years and
never had him shod in all that time. He
was in a damp place, and this fact,
coupled with the one that he had never
worn shoes, transformed his feet into
curiosities. Upon my word, his feet
were foot long aad shaped just Ikea
mans. They turned up at the ends like
Chinamans shoe"
Mr.. Nelson can prove this, so he af-
firms. He neglected to state how many
toes the horse had New York Recorder

Name. of the mississippi River.

An ANONYMOUS writer has asserted
that from the mouth of the Ohio to the
source of the Mississippi it was known
as Pe-he-ton-at, an Algonquin significa-
ton of abode or habitation of furies
The same writer asserts that l.. M.
Gould is authority for the statement
that an analysis of the word shows that
it does not mean father of waters"
"Mis-sisk" means grass" 'Mis-sisk-ke-
on" eweeds;" 'Mis-sisk-ke," medical
herbs" and .Mis-ku-tuk" "the broad
bottom lands" OF the river. Thus the
tribes inhabiting the bottom lands were
called Mis-shu-tan or meadow people,
from which the assertion comes that the
literal meaning of the word is 1.-THE river
of meadows of grass" BUTT is believed
that the latter designation is a fanciful
idea, in the light of other and very posi-
tive information which has come down
to us.
A Jesuit father (Allonez), who first
made personal acquaintance with the
"Nasouessiouck, speaks of them as liv-
ing toward the west, near the great river
called Messipi, a memorable remark, it
being the first time "a. D. 1867 that the
word was noted by any French writer.
It would appear that, if Groseilliers and
Raddison, to whom must be awarded
the honor of discovering the upper waters
of the river west of the great lakes,
noted the name in any diary kept by
them, it was probably lost when Grosel-
iers, like Joliet at later date, was up
set in the ST. Lawrence on his return
from the second voyage. -Goldthwaite's
Geographical Magazine.
G. Washington. Marechal de France.
An interesting bit of history was told
me lately by descendant of G. w.
Parke Gusts.
1t seems that when, in 1881, the United
States sent to France a special embassa-
dor some difficulty arose between him
and the French government as to the
command of the combined armies. Colo
mel Laurens, the ambassador, stated
very firmly that George Washington,
our chief, must command, "for it is our
cause, and the battle on our SOIL" The
6blQuCUto VI GllO 10IO1SA SoNO1 hdIOAp,
however, exclaimed: "Cest impossiblel'
for here was Count Rochambeau, an old
lieutenant general, who could only be
commanded by the king in person or a
marechal de France.
The American wit of Colonel Laurens
flashed upon the situation a happy
thought. He said: "Make our Wash
ington a marechal de France and the
difficulty is at an end" 1t was done.
Mr.. Gusts continues that a friend of his
heard General Washington spoken of as
monsieur lie marechal at the siege Of
Yorktown.
I have heard that in some southern
home there is treasure, held beyond
price-even the antiquity hunters price,
and he who aspires to buy the bones of
his ancestors ancient porcelain mug,
on which is painted an efigy of Wash
ington on horseback, and underneath is
this inscription: George Washington,

States Army and Marshal of France
