Lincoln Medal
A strange coincidence distin
guishes the Lincoln medals struck
at Chicago early in 1865 from other
varieties commemorating our mar
tyred President. The obverse die,
showing a bearded bust of Lincoln,
cracked after a few impressions and
had to be reinforced, and this crack,
says an official of the Detroit Coin
club, is clearly visible on the med
als. It extends from below the right
eye down through the lobe of one
ear and across the metal surface in
a course similar to that taken by
the assassin’s bullet on April 14,
1865.
Buffalo Kings
When attacked by wolves, the buf
faloes always gathered the weak
end the young in a group. The
strong and sturdy ones then gal
loped in a circle around the huddled
group. Round and round the huge
fellows raced, and the wolves could
not break the ring. If they got in
the way of the flying hoofs they
were stamped upon and crushed to
death.—Our Dumb Animals.

The ‘Blind Traveler’
James Holman (1786-1847) was
known as the “blind traveler." He
entered the British navy in 1798 and
was invalided out in 1010. Becom
ing totally blind, he refused to re
main at home and traveled widely
for a number of years.
Use of Word ‘Moron*
"The American Language" says:
"Moron was proposed by Dr. Henry
H. Goddard in 1910 to designate a
feeble-minded person of a mental
age of from 8 to 12 years. It was
formally adopted by the American
association for the Study of the
Feeble-Minded in May of that year
and immediately came Into wide
use."
Meals for Body and Soul
Twenty-one meals a week for the
body, with a lot of soda wash be
tween, and one scanty meal a week
for the soul—well, draw your own
conclusions.
Origin of Neckerchief
The sailor’s neckerchief was orig
inally worn as an article in which
tobacco and other small personal
things could be kept. It was also
used for a sling when a man broke
his arm and had several other uses.
It finally became a decorative part
of the uniform. Formerly the neck
erchiefs were in various colors, but
after the death of Nelson the use of
black was standardized.

George Eliot's Country
Visitors to Staffordshire in Enfr
land find it is the Loamshire «£
George Eliot's novels. Ellastone «?
the "Haysthorpe” of Adam Bette.,
and the cottage of the novelist’s
childhood can be seen there.
Use of Snuff
The chief reason for the
ity of snuff seems to he thrf.
powdered, scented tobacco car te
“dipped” (placed between the®!»rM"*
and cheeks) by those who ctaaneA
smoke at work. Its users,
range from social registorites t# War
gro field hands, also say th;rt ifc »
good for colds and sinus discrete;''!.
“Dipping” is the more prerates*
way of taking snuff (one "dip” lastta
for hours), whereas in earlier *&?S3
sniffing it up the nostrils was trMOT
popular. More expensive <&*■*■
smoking tobacco, snuff it; put tip ws
bottles, paper packages, 'tin coma,
and even calves’ bladders.
