ORIGINAL OF SLANG PHRASE
ITO FEEL LIKE 80 CENTS"

The origin of slang has always been
a puzzle to philogists, but once in
awhile a current phrase can be traced
to its source. The colloquialism,
ITO feel like 80 cents,'' is apparently
nonsensical, but it is certainly the
most forceful expression of the day
for denoting small, mean and contemp
tible in ones sight. Its origin is thus
explained by Philadelphia lawyer
who sometimes practices in New
York:
There is a vagrant law in New
York. under which a person having
no visible means of support may be
placed in durance. 1t has also been
decided in that state that a person
having so small sum as 30
cents in his possession has visible
means of support Now, there is
no law in New York, except the
vagrant law, under which booksellers
and gamblers of that sort may be
held. Shortly after the decision just
mentioned was formulated, two
gamblers were captured in raid al !
taken to the Tenderloin station
house. They sent for q lawyer. wno
came and had a talk with them. 1t
will never do to make show of
money here he said. Give me
