Money Slang.

“The needful,” “the wherewithal,” “the actual,” “the boodle,” “the stuff,” “blunt,” “tin,” “Kudos,” “ooftish,” “the oof bird,” “brass,” “chips,” “boodle,” “shekels, ” “simoleons, ” “dust, ” “stamps, ” “dollars,” “chink,” “brass,” or “palm oil”—which last is such obviously appropriate name for it that “shin-plaster” seems feeble by comparison. It is all money, however, and therefore the root of some, if not all, of the evil in the world.— Plck-Mc-Up. Mary E. Venus, Mary F. Seymour, Mary E. Ryan, Henrietta Schwartz, and about thirty-three other women are commissioners of degrees and notaries of the public. The easiest way to get along in this world is to forget yourself in helping other people.
