DOLLAR" IS DERIVATION
FROM GERMAN "THALER"

We owe our word dollar to the
'thaler'' Of the Germans-the letter n"
being solent in the word-so that taller
easily became dollar in English speech.
The German merchants. trading with
England, brought the word into London
about the close of the sixteenth century.
and the word has been in our language
for something over 800 years. It accord
ingly occurs several times IN the writings
of Shakespeare. It is said dollar" ap-
peared first as a dictionary word in the
wear 1745. The mint of Ioachims had Is
sued a coin called 'Ioachimstkal." and
the tail OF this word is the origin Of our
standard Of currency. For when other
mints were established they issued the
"thaler.' but dropped the "Ioachims."
1t became our standard by act of Con-
gress August 5, 17S5 Originally it was
to contain about S76 grains of pure sill
yer, according to this Congressional de-
cree. But when the first mint was es-
tablished, in 1892, the specification was
reduced TO S71 Is grains. Its coinage dates
from the year 1874. The sign of the dol
lar, &, is the monogram OF the United
States, the letter ~ being superimposed
upon the letter S.

Professor Urges Immediate
Action by the Turks.

of $4,000 has been made by friends on
behalf Of Prof. Edouard Richter. the
German geologsit who was captured by
brigands two months ago while making
an ascent Of Mount Olympus. near Thes-
sally.
The brigands have demanded $4,000, as
well as presents Of jewels, but the Turk
ish government has declined to recognize
any claims and has sent two bodies Of
troops to capture the brigands. In order
to obtain Information of the brigands'
whereabouts the inhabitants OF surround
ing villages were soundly flogged, al
though without effect
Prof. Richter has now written letter
beseechihg payment OF the ransom, to
put an end to his sufferings." Negotia-
tions are proceeding between the brigands

MEN OF AFFAIRS PROMOTE
BIGGEST CAMPAIGN YET

and at least expense, three teams Of
specialists in Bible study, Sunday School
work, missions, evangelism, social SER
vice, and the rest are provided, and these
instructors are given outlines of lectures,
SO that it is known In advance just what
instruction will be given. Nothing more
economic, or more certain to carry out
determined plans, has ever been devised
In religion or politics. The number OF
men and boys to come under instruction
will, 1t is calculated, run into the hun
dreds of thousands. The October to May
period covered, follow-up work is to be
carried on and the whole scheme made
permanent. 1t is not the aim to ad-
vance any particular organizations, but
solely to help the cause of Jesus Christ
and to bring more men and boys into
actual membership and personal work
Of the churches. Some men said last
year, when the missionary campaign was
on, that they did not believe in foreign
missions. The plan this year is mis-
sions at home in its intensest form.
