The first colonial mint was establish
ed in 1912, but it worked only In brass
Forty years later Massachusetts en-
tered upon the business of coming
money.
The Pine Tree shilling is not only
part Of the history. but of the ro-
nance of the colonies as well. The Of.
fcers of the mint, or perhaps 1t would
be better to say the mill. from which
It was issued were John Hull and
Robert Saunderson. They coined for
the colony, but exacted toll for their
work, just as the man who ground
grain for his neighbors was wont to
do. Their profits were said to be enor-
nous, and more than once 1t was sug-
gested that a new arrangement should
be made. They were satisfied. how
ever, to keep at 1t in the old way.
After John Hills daughter had been
married TO Samuel Sewell the old mint
master invited all the wedding guests
into one of the rooms Of his house,
where he instructed his daughter to
get on to an improvised platform at
the end of a pair of steelyards. In
a tub at the other side the old man
poured Pine Tree shillings until the
scales balanced. There, SAM" he
said, take her and her dowry. It's
not every bride that's worth her weight

Owing to the great amount of business
on hand our pen remained inactive last
week but we are going to exercise 1t some
this week.
Halloween passed us without any dam
age, only the half grown boys had to bar
the school house entrance, but early
risers removed the distractions so that
the teacher was not abashed when he ar
rived at the school in the morning. There
was a very enjoyable party given the
youngsters at j. w. Eittle6eld's and
every one had very nice time, There
was parade of Jack lanterns just after
dark, accompanied by loud noise.
j. w. Littlefeld was over on Sunday
to spend the day with his family here
and returned on Monday morning early
to his abors at Whig Hill.
Miss Lottie Littlefield is at Grand VAL
ley working for her brother James Little
field, who lately moved there.
Mrs. Geo. Blum returned Friday from
a short visit to Newmansville, the home
of her parents, and reports the apple crop
very good out in that part of the country,
and brings evidence in the shape OF some
of the finest we have ever seen in apples.
Thomas Miller was down from Henry's
Mill over Sunday with his little family.
G. H. Blum spent few hours with his
family on Saturday evening but had to
return to look after his stock. He is
serving as woods-boss for the Watson
Lands Lumber Co., near Msyburg, and
in addition to the woods work has the
feeding of the horses.
VIM. Labree, who is in California, has a
perfect right to smile a great smile, for
out here in the east little daughter was
born last week. Mother and babe are do
ing nicely.
There is a revival in progress at Minis
ter and thus far three have laid down
their burden of sin on the altar. The at
tendance is good and we hope to see more
of the good work here. There is no SER
vice on Monday evenings so as to allow
the women rest from the weekly wash
day. This is good rule too, for us poor
women feel tired Monday evening,

Soft CAPPED Proiectiles.

Many persons know that certain ar
NOR piercing shells have soft metal
caps on the point, with the result of
greater effectiveness over those not so
provided, but the way in which the
cap acts is not generally well under
stood. A needle may be driven into
board with hammer when 1t is thrust
through a cork, whereas 1t would
break Off unsupported. Many have
thought that the soft cap supports the
hard point of the projectile in the same
way. A British authority who has
given much study to the mutual action
of the projectile and armor states that
shell frequently fails because Of the
fact that very small piece of the
point Is forced back into the mass, thus
splitting it. A larger piece Is then
similarly forced back. and so on. The
main advantage Of the soft cap, in the
opinion Of this authority, is to prevent
such splittiDg.-Harper's Weekly.
