lighted TO be dined, and to invite him
TO banquet in his own especial honor
was To give the great man unalloyed
pleasure. In his latter days. too. he
developed passion for decorations. OF
which he received large number from
his own and foreign monarchs. and on
public occasions he would wear all his

WASHINGTON AS A FIREMAN,
He Was Member of the Friendshsp

George Washington was member

drla. AZ first the company consisted OF
citizens who, out OF mutual friend
snip agreed 10 carry to every fire
| Two leathern buckets and one great
bag or oznaburg or wider linnen."
Washington was made an honorary
| member, and when he went MS dele
gate to the congress of 1IIi ut Phila-
delphia he examined the fire engines
In use there. On his return to phila-
delphla to the Continental congress IN
1910 lie bought from a man named
Gibbs small fourth class engine for
the sum OF tS0 los, and lust before
he set out for Boston Heights to be-
come commander in chief he DISPATCHED
this little engine to the Friendship
company.
During his younger days he always
attended fires In Alexandria ana helped

or his life fire occurred near the
market He was riding down King
street at the time, followed by his
servant who WAS also on horseback.
Washington saw that the Friendship
engine was insutficlently manned, and.
riding up to a group of wen dressed
gentlemen standing near the scene OF
action, he called out authorltatively:
why are you idle there. gentle T
mem 1t is your business to lead In |
these matters"
After which he leaped off his horse /

shaking up as it had not had for

the student of child life that the only
child learns to read sooner than the
child belonging to large family. There
may or may not he psychological rea-
sons for this but the story Of the small
boy of five who was struggling with
his alphabet blocks for the first time
may be enlightening to those who wish
for reasons. The small boy was really
rather interested than otherwise in the

OF standing for an apple tree, but he

WOODEN CHECKS.
faiiies We're Used In England uatil
the Year 1894.

Wooden checks are the sort Of thing
one would expect to find used ia China
or Tibet but, as matter Of fact, lhey
We're used in England from the earliest
times down to as late as 1894.
TALES, rs they We're called, We're
made out Of a curved piece of hazel,
notches being cut along the edges to
stand for certain sum Of money. Tie
tally was then sawed half through
below the lowest notch and the notch
ed part split into two pieces, on both
OF which the notches appeared.
These pieces served as check and
counterfeit, the latter being always the
larger piece with the unnotched end
as Kind of handle. The smaller piece
was then taken by the payee, the larger
sent to the person on whom the cheek
was drawn, generally collector OF
customs or other revenues. public or
private He would honor the check on
hndlng that the two pieces fitted and
had the amount credited to him by the
drawer on returning them together to
him. Thus We're the great danger and
expense of transporting large sums Of
coin avoided.
Forgery of tally was obviously i'm
possible unless new counterfoil could
De substituted, and If stolen In the or
binary way it would be of little use to
the thief, for, unlike our checks, there
was nothing to show on whom 1t was
drawn.
There are still good many tallies IN |

TIE DIVINE NAME.
inenabie Word That Is Never Used
by Many IsracIites

ineffabie Word That IL Never Used
by Many IsraeIites,
An eminent rabbi has given his view
of the ancient Jewish rendering Of the
name of the Deity. He SAYS that the
term Jehovah" the ineffabe tetra.
grammaton, Is never pronounced By
many Israelites. They use the word
"Adonoi," which signifies 'the Lord. "
/ The translators of the Bible followed
/ this custom, rendering the word "Jeho,
yah" as lord" In ancient times the
Pharisees replaced the tetragramma
ton by Shem. They used "Shemo,"
which Is also Biblical, as the sacred
name, and this name Is yet retained
to some extent among the Jews. But
1t would appear from passages in the
Psalms that Adonoi, or Lord, for Jeho-
yah was more ancient even than the
times Of the pharisees. 1t thus occurs
eight times in Psalm lxxxiv. 1t also
appears in the book of Exodus. where
jehovah had been used In the orig.
inal Hebrew This substitution would
seem to be older than any other, and
1t Is yet common among all Jews.
The rabbi says he has found that the
ancient TRANSACTIONS testify In favor OF
"Adonol"
Looking ut the English translation Of
the Old Testament, it will be found
that the name Jehovah appears in the
books of Genesis, Exodus, Judges the
Psalms and Isaiah 1t is not in the
New Testament
