The coinage act of the 2nd of April, 1792, legalized It and established it as a unit of Amer ican currency. The inconvenience of the English system of money led con gress in 1781 to Instruct Robert Mor ris to devise a system of national coinage. His suggestions were not adopted, but those proposed by Jeffer son were approved. He proposed the dollar as a unit to be equivalent to one hundred cents. Catches Strange Sea Monster. HamDton. Va.

'. l.L J a t, Kfnpmiti WBT tuner W mi lucky Joed C152 IV STEPHANIE AVffiUY. unusual name is stepnanie. Of iate It has had great vogue and represents a revival of interest m the old Greek names which hud far more significance than our modern versions. Stephanie, for Instance, or iginated with the Greek games when the wreath of the conqueror was an appropriate illusion to those games where the Greek youth delighted to contend. The wreath was called a Stephanos, and It Is more than likely that the first proper name Stephanos was so called by a proud family whose representative had returned with a leafy crown on his brow. Stephan, the contraction, was an old Greek nnme borne' by the son of Thucydldes, before It was given to the Hellenist deacon who achieved the greatest of all victories and won the spiritual crown. Old Greek hymn writers celebrated this accordance of name and destiny: Thou by name a crown lmpllest Meekly then In pangs thou dlestj For the crown of righteousness. Stephanie Is the feminine form ap proved In Greece; it also signifies a crown. It received a sacred promi nence since no less than seven sulnts bore the masculine form of it, Includ ing the yreat Saint Stephen the mar tyr. The English gained Its use, it Is said, through William the Conqueror, who dedi&ited to Saint Stephen the abbey built at Caen to expiate the marriage with the already betrothed Matilda. The English have placed the stamp of their own spelling upon It, and while using Stephanie to a lurge ex tent, also favor Steiiluma. The French call her Estephanic Stefnnle, Etien nette, and Tlennette. Estephanla Is the Portuguese form and Stephanlne, the German. Russia changes her to Stephanlda and Stepnnliln. Stephanie's Jewel is the sapphire which will protect her from all harm, and Is said to attract divine favor to Its wenrer. Her lucky day Is Wednes day and 3 Is her lucky number.
