Forced to Do Public Penance for Slander

Public penance was the punishment ! meted out to slanderers us recently us | the Nineteenth century. In IS'-’'-’ thou-1 sands of persons assembled in Bethnal ] 1 Green church, London, uud the ad- i Joining thoroughfares, attracted, thither by the announcement that a , young married woman, named Sarah Green, had been ordered by the surrogate of the ecclesiastical church to do penance in the church for having j called her sister-in-law, Mrs. Ami Johnson, an opprobrious name. The order said she was to stand in a white 1 sheet, but this was dispensed with, 1 much, it is said, to the disappointment of the spectators. Mrs. Green, who is described as being “a very fine young woman,” was attired in n white dress, | and repeated the following recantation 1 In the vestry in the presence of tiie j

Made Sick of Liquor

One of the most original ways of

curing the habitual drunkard Is that

practiced In the 'inebriates’ homes” of

3!:?JiII3EicLtHlSnSMt'^ Norway. And, according to report, It

f! Is one of the most effectual.

IS When brought to the “home" the ® ‘‘case” is allowed nothing but wine to , r S drink. Not only this, but all food sup- ^ plied to Inmates is flavored with, or

dipped In, wine.

For a day or two there are "no complaints." But gradually the wine and ^ wine-flavored food begin to pall, until gO presently even the most thorough-go- ^ Ing drunkard begins to wonder what virtues the grape can possibly possess. So quickly does the treatment work, indeed, it Is claimed even the worst cases can be cured.

Origin of "Sterling” Of unusual Interest Is the derivation of the word "sterling” as applied to something that is “genuine, pure, unadulterated, or of exutfllent quality.” The Easterlings were the north Germans, or the merchants of the Hanseatic league, the original “moneyers” of England. The name of these merchants came to be applied to coin or goods of a fixed, standard value, answering all tests. In the time of Edward I, we find an English coin Issued of the designation of a dinar or dinnrlns, called “ste* - - Ilng,” has been applied to the English pound, which before the war was regarded as the best value in the world. —Rehoboth Sunday Herald.

Greenland Greenland was named by the Norwegian explorer, Erie the Red. Fpon his return from Greenland In fix.', he gave the new country that name In order to make people more willing to go there. The climate is very cold, the mean annual isotherm of freezing temperature crossing the Island at its southern end. This fact does not prevent the prevalence of warmth suitable for vegetation during the long summer day In the interior of the fiords and in sheltered places quite to the northern end of the Island. Thus the summer temperature In favored localities often reaches an Important height.
