T he 1922 series of 910 gold certlfl-
eatee bears the likeness of Michael HU-
legas, the first treasurer of the United
States. The germ of the Treasury de
partment was planted on July 2». 1775,
when the Continental congress appoint
ed two treasurers. The appointments
were Hlllegas and George Cl.vmer. The'
la tte r soon resigned to accept his seat
as delegate to the congress. Hlllegas
discharged the duties of treasurer un
Ol September 1, 1789.
The Treasury department was or
ganised under an act of September 2,
1789. Strictly speaking, It was reor
ganized. for the department, under
various names, had been In existence
since 1775. The Constitution went In
to effect March 4, 1789, Washington
was Inaugurated as the first President
o f the United Slates April 30. 1789. It
w ill thus be seen that Hlllegas was
treasurer many months a fter the In
auguration of Washington, and for
nine days after the Treasury depart
ment was organized under the Consti
tution.
Festival of St. Peter
On the eve of St. Peter's day bon
fires were commonly prepare«] and Ig
nited throughout Great Britain. This
festival was most fervently kept up
a t Eton during the Middle ages,
where the boys made their bonfires
against the church. In London the
day was also associated with bonfires
In the streets and with the setting of
a Watch at night, the Watch parad
ing with torches, and sometimes num
bering fully 2,000 citizens.
History
records how King H al, disguised In a
guardsman's coat, went privately Into
Cheape to witness the pngennt. York
shire fishermen remembered St. Peter
on his day by holding festival, dress
ing their boats and painting their
masts, and sprinkling the prows with
good liquor for good luck.
Jimson W eed Valuable
Both the lenves and seeds of the
Jimson have medicinal properties. The
leaves are collected at the time of
flowering, and the entire plant Is cut
or pulled up and the leaves stripped
and dried In the shade. The leaves
are poisonous, cnuslng dilation of the
pupil of the eye, and are used princi
pally In sstlimn. For the collection of
the seeds, the capsules should he taken
from the plants when they are quite
ripe, hut still o f a green color. The
capsules should then be dried for a
few days, when they will hnrsf open
and the seeds can be readily shaken
out. These should then be carefully
dried.
Intelligent Reading
I f the hooks which you reHd are your
own, mark with a pen or pencil the
most considerable things In them
which you most desire to remember.
Then you may read that book the sec
ond time over with half the trouble,
by your eye running over the para
graphs which your pencils has noted.
It Is but a very weak objection against
this practice to say "I shall spoil my
book"; for I persuude myself that you
did not buy It as a bookseller, to sell
It again for gain, but as a scholar, to
Improve your mind by It; and If the
mind he Improved, your advantage Is
abundant, though your book yields less
money to your executors.
When Pillory Was Used
The use of the pillory for the pun
ishment of evil doers was only abol
ished In England during comparative
ly recent times, nnd was In active op
eration in June, 1837. This peculiar
form of punishment has a venerable
history, and was known before the
Conquest, in the form of an Instru
ment of torture called the stretch-
neck. The pillory was usually dedi
cated to fraudulent dealers, sellers of
shnm gold rings, or counterfeiters of
papal bulls, until Star chamber tyrants
made It a poJticnl weapon, whereby
many a noble heart was tried and
tempered.
Scriptural Translaticns
Every year scholars nre tolling to
translete the Scripture» Int» more and
still more dialects.
Thousands are
plodding all over the globe to put these
translations In the bunds o f all peo
ples. In the Interiors of distant coun
tries. fnr up the Amazon valley per
haps, or Into darkest Africa, where the
Bible has never been, colporteurs are
trnmplng with their packs.
Motor
cars are carrying the Bible across the
desert from Damascus to Bagdad In
48 hours, a Journey that was once a

camel jiost a trip of nine days.
SJonuments to Apples
Monuments nr markers have been
erected to n few uf the most noted
varieties of apple. In 1895 a monu
ment was built to the Baldwin at
Wilmington, near Lowell. Mass.. The
first In New York was erected In the
town of Camillus, Onondaga county,
on the original site of the Primate ap
ple trees of John T. Roberts of Syrs
ruse. In 1903. There followed one to
the Northern Spy In 1012. and the

Carly Polo Games
It la a long vlata back to the his
toric d ty when. In 1871, two cavalry
teams played the first polo game on
English soil with a billiard ball snd
hockey sticks; to Prospect park,
Brooklyn, when the elder Bennett and
Foxhall Keene staged the Drat game
on American soil in 1876. Yet these
two events have made polo truly In
ternational. The tactics of those early
players of the eighties have been pro
foundly modified until the game has
now become a science. In which the

Rare Motorist
A Melbourne dtlaen was run down
by a motor car the other day while
perambulating homewards on a “push-
bike." The car was on Its wrong side,
and the “bike” was broken serosa; Its
rider had a brace o f ribs fractured
and a damaged occiput combined with
cuts on the face snd many abrnalons.
The tout for a firm of shypoo solici
tors called upon the Injured man and
tried to persuade him to take action
against the car owner for substantial
damages.
"Oh, I couldn't do that,"
said the hurt dtlaen. “But you can.”
perlsted the tout, “and you would be
absolutely sure to recover," “ No. I
cannot.” pursued the victim. “You do
not know the whole circumstances.
The driver has apologised.“— Sydney
