Counting q Score.

Twenty is called a score because it
represents the whole man, ten fingers
and ten toes. Etymologically it means
a cut or mark. In very early times,
when men could not count beyond
twenty, or lone man." it was usual to
cut a notch in a stick and begin again,
and so 1t went on. one man, two men.
and so on. This is why sheep are still
counted by the score. Now, a tally
(French taille, cut or nicked) means an
account kept by means of a notched
stick. and until the end Of the eight
eenth century such sticks were given
as exchequer receipts. accompanied by
q written document. This was also the
usual way of keeping accounts in the
inns Of the middle ages. The number
Of drinks or meals q customer had
were scored against him on what was
called tally stick, and when it reach
ed twenty, or a whole man." he was
expected to pay.

merchant and some other bystanders,
he passed ON to his lock box. Tarp
had opened dry goods circular which
had Just come, and above its margin
he furtively watched his intended
prey. Abner was taking out Of the
large drawer set aside for the New
Clarion's ponderous exchange numer-
GUS parcels and letters and stacking
them up on his arm

ed, and Herewith he turned away and
walked down to the entrance of the ho-

eyes on the door of the postofice. His
vigilance was rewarded, for a moment
later he saw Abner emerge, his face
buried In some sheets Of foolscap
which had q familiar look to the watch
er. Abner's face wore a startled, even
triumphant expression, comparable to
that on the face Of miner who has
struck gold and decided to say little
