Our Eirat Coinann.

The earliest coinage Of money for America is said tO have been made for Virginia in 1912. The London company had been formed for the purpose of pushing colonization work in Virginia and in 1899 Sir George Somers, an active promoter of the company, set out with an eXp2iitiun. lis vessels encountered a storm and were wreck ed on the coast of one of the Bermuda islands. Somers took possession of the islands in the name Of Great Britain. He was forced to remain there ten months. but finally reached Virginia. The Bermudas, often since then called Somers islands, were largely colonized by people from Virginia. and the rela- tions between the two became inti- mate. This accounts for Nirginia's first coins being made there. They were O, brass, and on one side was represented a ship under full sail. fir ing n gun. On the other side were the words. "Somers Island" and the figure of a hog, 'in memory" as an old time writer Cuaintly says. "of the abundance of hogges which the Eng fish found on their first landing."- Argonaut

The Red Shirt of ItalY.

The red shirt, destined to become so famous a symbol throughout Europe, was not at first adopted by Garibaldi for any fantastic or spectacular req son. The English Admiral Ingram says that the red shirt had It's origin In stern necessity and that its adoption was caused by the need of clothing as economically as possible the legion that Garibaldi had raised for the liberation of Italy. An offer was made by a tradesman to supply at a reduced price large stock of red wooden shirts. This offer was eagerly closed on. Before many years had passed the red shirt became the symbol not merely of the legion, but of the new spirit working for the liberation of Italy. Atlanta Constitution.

Where Silence Was Deadly.

Rome is said to have once been saved by the caekling of geese, but silence cost the people of Amyklae, an ancient Grecian city. their liberty. The report that an enemy was approaching had been spread so often, creating conster- nation among the inhabitants, and as often proved false, that the authorities finally passed law forbidding any one to speak of such thing. All went we'll for time, but there came q day when an enemy did appear. hostile Spartan army. But the citizens of Amyklae were law abiding. They talked of the weather, of the crops. of the approach ing track meet. but never a word did they speak about the approaching army. Everybody obeyed the law, and nobody told the authorities of the i'm pending danger. Thus the city fell m easy victim to the invaders through the faithful obedience of It's citizens to the law.

The Bed of Ware.

A famous piece of furniture is the bed of Ware" which was formerly preserved at the inn called the Sara cen's Head, at Ware, England, but re- moved to Rye House in 1869. It Is con- sidered one of the curiosities of Eng land and measures twelve feet square. It is made of oak elaborately carved and is surrounded by a canopy, sup ported by a lofty headboard and two massive bedposts at the foot. Twelve persons can occupy this bed comforta. bly, at one time.
 The bed bears the date 1460, but an tlquarians think it is not older than the time of Elizabeth. Some authorities say that it was offered for sale in 1864 and was bid in by Charles Dickens. while others claim that Dickens offer of $500 was not considered sufficient and it was bid in by the owner.

Blackberries.

The real greatness of a blackberry is in the eating it fresh from the bush. It does not need sugar and cream. It does not need anything but thumb and finger and a mouth. The mushy ones that grow big in the shade may be improved by doctoring, but the firm ones of moderate size that grow in the open fields are not susceptible of improvement by human art. We know a man. raised in the country in middle Tennessee, who came back from Okla homa in his old age just to fill himself once more with blackberries as they grow. Nobody who knows what real blackberries are would think him fool fsh. A man might almost come back from paradise for a feast like that Exchange.

Apple Pie Order.

To feel in apple pie order is phrase which dates back to Puritan times-to certain Hepzibah Merton. It seems that every Saturday she was accus- toned to bake two or three dozen ap- pie pies, which were to last her fam fly through the coming week. These she placed carefully on her pantry shelves, labeled for each day of the week, so that Tuesdays pies might not be confused with Thursdays nor those presumably large or intended for washing and sweeping days eaten when household labors were lighter. Aunt Hepzibah's apple pie order was known throughout the entire settle ment and originated the we'll known saying.-Exchange.

oriqin of the Clearing House.

In 1775 the bankers of London rent ed a house in Lombard street and fit- ted it with tables and desks for the use of their clerks as q place where bills. notes, drafts and other commer- cial paper might be exchanged without the trouble of personal visits of em- ployees to all the metropolitan banks. Transfer tickets were used, and by means of this simple plan transactions involving many millions were settled without a penny changing hands. The Bank of England and all other impor- tant banks in London are members of the Clearing House association. The first clearing house in the United States was established by the associat- ed banks of New York in 1853.
