THE LIGONIER BANNER, LIGONIER, INDIANA.

Ancient and Modern ' Systems of Currency in the eaviy days ef our civilization, when a man's flocks and herds were his only possessions. they alge comstituted his mooey, an@ when metal coins weve first Introdtced '‘many had cattle stzmmped on them. The Latin for cattle Is “pecus,” and it is not a far stretch from this to our word ‘“pecuniary,” which is usually associated with money. : Again, the word ‘‘cattle” ig derived from “capltal,” the origin of which is the Latin word “capuat,” meaning a head, and from the very eariiest times heasts have been spoken of as so much per head. _ : It is curious, teo, how agriculture has Indirectly affected our system of currency. When man found it easier to dig with a bronze or iron spade than with wood. it was not iong before iron and bronze coins came into use. Later, when gold and silver were discovered, they were quickly adopted for currency. T The word *“salary” comes from “caline.” When the Romans dominated Britain they took possession of a great many of the salt mines, because salt wasg then a valuable commodity; in addition, workmen in the salt mines were frequently paid with salt, and it was not long before this form of remuneration became known as salary. ' -

Would Have History - Recorded on Tablets

If we of today were very much concerned that people 10,000 or 15,000 years hence shall know who we were and what we did, {we suppose we should follow the advice of Albert Vanderlaan, ceramic expert, and make a pictorial record of ourselves and our achievements on clay plaques. Newsprint crumbles in a few decades, books and manuséripts are perishable, wood turns to dust and iron to rust, brick becomes earth, the marble tombstone weathers into a limestone devold of inscriptions, and, as we have learned, our national capitol Is ‘built of rotten sandstone which only repeated coats of weatherproof paint have kept from disintegration. Nothing lasts except glazed pottery—a thing more enduring than stone or metal. It Is looking a long -way ahead, but there would be point in reproducing the characteristic physiognomies, edifices, machines and products of our civilization in baked clay. Anyway, we wish prehistoric man had dooe more systemati¢c work of this kind for the benefit of His successors.—Cincinnati Times-Star.

Hymns Form Links : The Old and the New worlds have been linked by hyr:ns. - Doctor Reeves tells how American history opened with the singing of a Christian hymn. “On the evening of September 25, 1492, one of the companions of Columbus saw what he thought to be land lying dimly in the west. . . . From all three of the ships, as Columbus himself gives the account in his diary, there rose the sound of the old ‘Gloria in Excelsis Deo.”” We learn that later in the history of Christian America “The Bay Psalm Book” was printed in the modest dwelling of the first president of Harvard. President Dwight of Yale, who was a chaplain in the Revolutionary army, edited and partly wrote what was for years the leading hymn and psalm book in the country. In 1737 at Charleston, 8. C,, John Wesley, an Anglican missionary, published the first hymn book of the Church of England.—W. M. Letts in Yale Review.

Famous American Society

The Society of Officers of the Continental army called the Society of the Cincinnati, was founded by regular officers of the Continental army at the headquarters of Baron von Steuben on the Hudson, 1783, was named for a traditional Roman dictator, Lucius Quintius Cincinnatus, born about 519 A. D. The name was adopted in allusion to the approaching change from military to civil pursuits and referred to the fact that Cincinnatus when named ‘dictator was discovered by the deputies sent to apprize him of the honor, digging on - his farm beyond the Tiber, an occupation he was loath to leave and eager to resume after much military glory. ¢

) No Mail for Him - The postal service Is laughing .at the story of a post-office inspector who went into the hills of Arkansas to check up a village post office. The neighbors sald the P. M. had gone fishing. Finding him, the inspeector asked, *“Are you the postmaster?” After a minute the P. M. said, “Yep. What’s your name?’ “P. D. Smith.” ‘The P. M. reached into his back pocket, took out a bunch of letters and running over them for the addresses, said, “Nope. Nothing fer ye,” and went on fishing.—Capper's Weekly. Miserable Despair Despair makes a despicable figure. and is descended from a mean original. It is the offspring of fear, laziness and Impatience. . It argues a defect of spirit and resolution, and oftentimes of honesty, too. After all, the exercise of this passion is so troublesome that nothing but dint of evidence and dem onstration should force it upon us. 1 would not despair unless I knew tlml irrevocable decree was passed, | saw my misfortune recorded in the book of fate, and signed and sealed by necassity. —Jeremy Tavlor.
