LYDIANS HAD FIRST COINAGE
Treasure Deposited In ths Temples
Was Impressed With Badge or
8ymbol of Divinity.
So far ns Is known, the Lydians,
says Herodotus, first Introduced gold
nnd silver coin. The Invention was
not far to seek. Treasure came to be
deposited for snfety in the temples,
where It was consecrated to the care
of the divinity by being Impressed with
a badge or symbol. The sacred sym
bol being accepted as guarantee of
value, the pieces of metal so Im| ^>ssed
found easy circulation. The curliest
Lydian coins extant, deriving, probably
from the reign of Gyges (about 700 B.
C.), nre benn-Bhnped lumps of nntlve
Lydian gold, blenched with Rllver.
Bach coin bears on Its obverse the
figure of a lion nnd on its reverse the
impress of tiie nail-head serving to
keep tlio metal in plnee., while being
struck. From Lydia the one-sided coin
spread throughout the-coasts and is
lands of the Aegean sen, each dty is
suing coins hearing the symbol of its
divinity. In Greece the earliest coins
of silver, with the figure of the tor
toise on the obverse, nre said to have
been struck by Pheldon of Argos. To
Solon, about 000 B. C., Is nscrlbed the
Introduction Into Athens of the tetrn-
drnchm, on Its obverse the head of
Athene, on Its reverse an owl. Sparta
enjoyed all to itself the luxury of n
purely Iron coinage. The Greek', coins
from 4S0 to 800 B. C. marked n great
advancement in the way of nrt, nnd
Anthenlan money was the chief medi
um of exchange during this period.
Other nations Inter adopted tlielr own
coinage, which has continued to Im
prove with the advance of civilization.

yerage Free to All Members of Af
rican Tribe, but Little Drunk,
enness Is Reported.
Among the Madl or Moru tribes of
the White Nile In Africa, there ex
ists a form of municipal brewery that
WpjiU'i’.lMake a great hit among the
- thirsts’. ,ln America. A special house
IS . Set aSttVe for It, and all the women
of tlio tribe spend part of tlielr time
in making beer from millet seed.
AVhlte men who have tasted It de
clare It to be a first-rate drink of
fine flavor nnd heady results. The
beer Is kept In enormous jurs, and
to each jar Is attached a number of
gourd dippers. The beer Is free to
anyone or everyone, the only re
striction being tlint it he drunk in
the brewery nnd not with meals. In
spite of this freedom the tribe mem
bers seldom get drunk.
To make sure tlielr .women will stuy
on as brew-masters and not go running
off with other men from nearby tribes,
the girls are taken when ten or twelve
years old and laid on the ground while
a sharp stone Is used to pry and knock
out the four upper nnd lower incisors,
The resulting effect Is anything but
beautiful—as the Intention was. The
clothing of the women consists of a
string worn around the waist, and
changed only when It gets so dirty
that It cannot be seen against the
dark skin.—Detroit News.
C0MBINETRT WITH “MOVIES”
How City of Toledo, O., Attracts
Children to Its Museum, for
Educational Purposes.
In order to attrnct the children of
Toledo to that city’s museum of nrt
the museum management offers Its lit
tle visitors "story hours," gallery
talks, music hours, classes In pure nnd
applied design and the educational
motion picture. Interest In visits to
the museum wns first stimulated
through the medium of nn organized
bird club. Thousands of chlldven
have also been brought to the
museum during the Inst four years
by means of the annual vegetable nnd
flower shows In which the children
have participated.
"The Toledo museum was the first
to include motion pictures In Its edu
cational plnn when, In the autumn of
1015, the necessary equipment wns
presented through the efforts of H. Y.
Barnes, then assistant to the di
rector," writes Eula Lee Anderson of
Toledo. "Tills proved not only n fur
ther magnet to attract hoys nnd girls
to the museum but a further means
of teaching art. During the first few
years films dealing with travel, crafts
nnd nrt were difficult to secure, yet by
diligent search many fine things were
made available, including the life of
Pnllssy, the famous potter, nnd a
beautiful lmml-colored film showing
the making of silk.
“The policy of tho museum is not
to amuse by mean.s of the film, but
to educate the child along artistic
lines, using only such productions ns
are of a distinctly cultural quality.”
PLAGUE OF OLD EGYPT BACK
Crops of Argentine Province De-
strayed by Locusts That Swarm
In Uncounted Millions.
Shades of the plagues of ancient
Egypt 1
Santa Fe province of the Argentine
now lias complete faith in the biblical
account of the scourge of locusts, for
at times millions of these insects
"cover the face of the earth,” They
come suddenly and without, warning,
In great clouds, and settle down on
the country. Then the ground resem
bles a grent moving carpet. Little
damngo Is done at first, though the
Argentinians find it inconvenient to
have locusts throughout their houses,
but ns the Insects move through the
country, they dig small holes and lay
tlielr eggs. Soon the lnrvne are
hatched, nnd at that time, before they
cap fly, they nre destructive. By the
time they nre ready to leave, every
living tiling In their path Is destroyed.
Eventually they fly away to parts un
known, and the fnrmers have to start
their crops over again. Squads of lo
cust destroyers, like fire-fighting units,
are maintained by thd government to
combat the pest, and ranchers nre also
responsible for fighting them. Their
efforts are almost unavailing, how
ever, because of the myriads of the
Insects.
WHAT’S THE USE?
Of course It has boon hot.
And it’s going to be hot name more,
loo.
Next summer It will be hot—maybe
hotter than this summer. Who knows/
.Inst now you are wishing for n taste
those eolil, frosty mornings, when yon
pull tho covers up n little closer, nnd
curl yourself into a knot a little tighter,
and hate to crawl out of bed to dross
for your stuck of wheat cakes and mo-
lnsses.
But when these days do eome you will
shiver nnd grumble and wish for the
good old summer time.
The weather stands more abuse than
any one thing in creation, but goes on
weathering just tho same, never pnyl.ig
the slightest hoed to your kicks—ami
very little attention to tho forecasts of
he Weather Man.
Did you over notice who it is that
docs the most and loudest growling.'
Generally it is the person who cannot
—■ will not find anything else to do.
Go to the pool-room, where tho electric
fans arc buzzing away for dear life.
There you will find Mr. Kicker, wiping
the heads of perspiration from his brow
nnd rursing the climate. Go to tho soci
ety Indy’s boudoir and you will find her
rubbing on cold cream, and rouge, and
faming nnd protesting.
Then go to tlio shop where tho real
work is done. No fans, no lomonndo or
ice water. Plenty of noise mid hustle
and bustle. Mr. Worker, for the time
being, hardly renlizos there is such u
thing ns temperature. He Inis a job to
get out, ood the honest sweat pours un
noticed from cheek and chin. Tonight,
after work, when ho goes home and
bathes and stones nnd puts on fresh
linen, lie may join- the army of kickers
niul wish for a shorter work-day; i id
today, while the sun beats down, be says
nothing, except, perhaps, “Got on onto
my way; I’m busy. ’ ’
But, honestly, tho printer who set up
The good old ‘simmer’ time,” wasn’t
so far wrong after all, wns lief

The Human Species.
The human species, according to the
best theory X can form of it, is com
posed of two distinct rnces, the men
who borrow and the men who lend.
To these original diversities may be
reduced all those Impertinent classifi
cations of Gothic and ‘ Celtic tribes,
white men, black men, red men. All
the dwellers upon the eurth, Par-
thians, Modes and Elamites, flock hith
er nnd do fall In naturally with one
or the other distinction. The Infinite
superiority of the former, which 1
choose to designate as the great race,
Is discernible In figure, port and a
certain instinctive sovereignty. The
latter are born degraded. He shall
serve his brethren. There Is some
thing In the air of one of this cast,
lean nnd suspicious; contrasting with
the open, generous manners of the
other.—Charles Lamb.
Credit Belongs to Franklin.
Everybody knows that the versatile
Franklin was the originator of many
things. But few realize that he was
the first American cartoonist. "Join
or pie,” the familiar sketch of the
cliopped-up serpent, with each piece
representing one of the Colonies, was
entirely the work of Franklin. Even
the cutting of the type-metal was
done by his own hands. This first
newspaper cartoon appeared in the
Pennsylvania Gazette, May 0, 1754,
and was a device for urging united
action upon the Colonies at the time
of the French and Indian wars. It
may be noted also that he engraved a
map of the siege of Loulsburg and
published it In the Gazette. This Is
said to have been the earliest attempt
at Illustrating news.—Asn Don Dickin
son in New York Times.
Weight of Air.
Until very recently nobody knew
bow much air weighed.
We cannot see the air, and, except
when the wind blows, we do not feel
it Hence It seems to us to have al
most no substance.
Yet it is a rather substantial fluid.
When it moves at a rate of one hun
dred miles an hour It uproots great
forest trees and throws the waters
of the ocean Into turmoil. If our
bodies were empty of air the pressure
of the atmosphere surrounding us
.would crush us to an Immediate pulp.
A room ten feet long, ten feet wide
and ten feet high contains 75 pounds
of air.
Collegs Pessimism.
Ill Heywoort ilvrr,ill's article In Ihe
Bookman on pessimism In out' col
leges, he mentions that when he
was ut Harvard "ihere was u pretty
general ag^-emont Unit life was u
sham and a delusion." Apropos, we
recall, albeit vaguely, n remark by
Doctor Jewett, who said, ns nearly us
we can remember, Hint while he wns
af Oxford the students were fond of
referring to themselves by the Greek
term of "Agnostic," overlooking the
fuet that Its Lntin equivalent Is "Igno
ramus."—Boston Transcript.
