A woman puzzled Boston clerk con-
siderably recently. Her husband is a
bank president in Newburyport. The
national banks receive their bills in
sheets of IL, which are cut after being
signed. The generous president gave
one of these sheets to his wife, and she
naturally started at once for Boston.
After making some purchases in one of
the la<ge stores she drew the bills out
of her pocketbook and calmly said to
the clerk, LEND me your scissors, and
/ will pay you" thereupon cutting off
bill. The astounded clerk at first re-
fused to receive such money from SO
open manufacturer of currency, but
finally the matter was explained. -Bos-

Orrington, Me-, Got Its Name Through q
Wonderful Spelling.


Orrington, Me-, Got Its Name Through His
Wonderful Spelling.
AS often as once a month something
happens in Orrington, Me-, which is Of
enough Importance to make it worthy
of mention, and whenever the place is
put in print the name is always spelled
wrong. Most of the time it is called
"Orvington. though "Ovington" and
"Ovvington" are not uncommon. In
fact, the towns name is spelled every
way but the right way. All Of this is
due to the blunder of a prominent oiti-
zen who used phonetic methods Of SPELL
ing.
1t was nearly 1876 years ago that some
Of the leading citizens met and drew
up petition to the general court of
Massachusetts, asking that the planta-
ton be incorporated as town. The
people agreed upon the name. 1t was to
be called Orangetown, partly out Of
compliment to Orangetown, Md, which
was then thriving place, and partly as
a mark of respect to the Prince of
Orange, who, as William III of Eng
land, had done valiant work in behalf
of the Protestants. Having signed a
blank petition, the residents went home,
leaving the clerk of the meeting to fill
in the spaces, which he did faithfully
according to the light which was given
him. Of course the members of the
Massachusetts general court did not
know that "O-r-r-i.n-g" was meant to
spell orange, or that "t-o-n" spelled
town. Very likely they didn't stop to
look at the name and wouldn't have
cared if they had seen the bad spelling.
They incorporated the town without
protest and named it Orrington, as the
petition had asked them to do. Though
Orington received its name because an
old clerk didn't know how to spell and
though it is the only Orrington in the
world, it gets little credit for being
original, because compositors, proof
readers and careful copyists insist upon
misspelling a word that owes its birth
to bad photography. New York Sun.
