BY an English law enacted In 1866
It was provided that q silver penny,
called a sterling. should equal IN weight
thirty-two wheat grains, well dried
and taken from the center of the ear.
From this II seems evident that the

the standard grain. The weight now
known as the grain Is Of course copied
from governmental standards
In 1896 certain weights and meas.

SAILORS AMI DRINK.

Sailors have originality, more
resourcefulness and more ingenuity In
securing things to get drunk with than
any other class Of human beings. They
are never at a loss to find some substi-
tute for whisky and brandy when such
conventional intoxicants are not to be
had. The shellac carried upon men-of-
wal for vanishing purposes is such a
common beverage among thirsty jack
tars that 1t has to be kept under lock
and key and used under guard. Jalap
is put In the alcohol Of liquid compass
