LEGEND] OF LEAP YEAR.

February 29 Has Always Been Reck-
oned a Very Unlucky Day;

The advent of “Leap year” and the
break .in the regular order of days
make anything in regard to the “bis-
sextile ” or “ leap year ” of more than
ordinary interest. Leap year has al-
ways been regarded with awe and
superstition by the people of all coun-
tries. The peasantry of England at-
firm that peas and beans grow the
wrong way in their pods—that is, the
seeds are set contray to the way they
are in ordinary years. In Belgium
the rural folks maintain that leap
year is not only unpropitious for all
farming Operations, but that through-
out the year the young of the domes-
tic animals will not thrive as at other
times.

A similar fatality, they argue, ex-
tends to every kind of grass and
plant, which becomes stunted or is
blighted before attaining its normal
Size.
in Russia, Turkey, Tartary, India and
Arabia. The Russian proverb says:
“If St. Cassian (February 29) looks on
a cow she will wither.” In Arabia
they say: “As weak as a bissectile
camel,” and in Turkey and Tartary
they call all hunchbacks, dwarfs and
other deformed men, women and
children “ leap-year freaks,” but
there are exceptions to this as well as
to all other rules, for we find that in
Italy, Greece and Sicily the rural
proverb says, referring to leap year:
“Plant much corn and vine, it’s(the
year) good for bread and wine.”

The ancient Romans considered
February 29 a most critical season, al-
ways reckoning it among their un~
lucky days. That this belief has not
by any means lost ground is evi-
denced by a deep-rooted dislike par-
ents have to a child being born on leap
day, it being a. popular notion that to
come into the world at such an odd
time is ominous as signifying the
babe’s speedy exit. A variety of this
superstition exists in Tuscany, and,
according to a piece of the folk-lore of
that country, when a. child is born on
leap day either it or its mother will
die before the end of the year.

Hampson, in his “Medii (Evi Kal-
endarium,” quotes the following from
an old Saxon treatise: “ Some assert
that the bissextus or leap day comes
through this, that Joshua prayed to
God that the sun might stand still for
one day’s length that he might sweep
the heathen from the land. It is true
that the sun did stand still, but the
bissextus is not through this, as some
do think.”’——St. Louis Republic.

Origin of the Piano.

The piano-forte was invented by
Bartolommeo Cristofori, a harpsichord
maker of Padua, Italy, who exhibited
four instruments in 1709. The honor
was formerly claimed for Marius, a
French maker, who produced a piano
in 1716; while German writers main-
tained that Schroeter of Dresden, was
the initiator of the instrument. The
earliest date ascribed to the latter’s
achievement, however, is 1711. Dur-
ing the present century, however, an
Italian document was discovered,
written by Marchese Scipione Maffei,
a. Florentine scholar, in 1711,
which testifies that Bartolommeo
Cristofori of that city exhibited four
pianos in 1709, which statement
was originally published in the
Giornale in that year, accompanied
by a. diagram of Cristofori’s action
principle, employing hammers, which
constituted the chief difference be-
tween the harpischord and the piano.
In Mafi'ei’s writings Cristofori’s name
is given as “Cristofali,” but this is
proved to be an error, because in-
scriptions upon existing piano-fortes
give the name as “ Cristofori.” Father
Wood, an English monk living at
Rome, is also said to have made a.
piano-forte similar to Cristofori’s in
1711 which be exhibited in England,
where it attracted much notice.—
Popular Science.

The Scorpion’s Sensitive Eur.

A correspondent writes to confirm
what has recently been said about
“ the scorpion’s very sensitive ear for
the violin.” “ Ihave,” says the corre-
spondent, “studied the habits of the
scorpion for many years, and have
often noticed how very sensitive scor-
pions are to the most delicate sound,
musical or otherwise. Under the
thorax the scorpion has two comblike
appendages, which are the antennas
(pectiuatte). It is pretty well settled
by physiologists and entomolo.
gists that in insects the antennae
represent the organs of hearing.
These delicate structures are easily
affected by the vibrations of sound,
and there can be no doubt whatever
that they are also affected by sounds
quite inaudible to the \human ear.
The slightest vibration of the atmos-
phere from any cause whatever at
once puts in motion the delicate
structures which compose the an-
tennae, to which organs insects owe
the power of protecting themselves
against danger, as well as the means
of recognizing the approach of one
another.—London Spectator.

Never Keep 01d Letters.

There is little satisfaction or pleas-
ure to be gained in keeping old letters.
A letter, like a. pressed flower, when
put away can become naught but a.
faded token of the past, conveying
little or none of the freshness or de-
light it had for us when we first re-
ceived it. How great would be the
restraint between friends should they
feel all that was said was written in
black and white, and very much the
same feeling of restraint is felt on
writing to those sentimental friends
who tie our letters round with blue
ribbon. None save business letters
should be kept, for our friends’ letters
are too sacred or too foolish to be read
and criticised by other eyes than
our own, and the time may come
when, through unforseen circum-
stances, old letters, those relies‘ of
the past, may fall into hands which
will neither treat them reverently, nor
respect the writer of words that meant
so much to us. -——N. Y. Advertiser.

The same peculiar ideas prevail

 

THE ORIGIN or COINS.

HO‘V CERTAIN NAMES WERE
FIRST GIVEN T0 SOME.

'l‘hc Flor-1n Came From Florence—Tho
Crown From England—glow the Word
u Dollar ” First Originated — other
Coins. ‘

The fiorin, one of the most famous
of moderncoins, originated in Flor-
ence. Some say that it gave the name
to the city, while others assert that it
was first so called because it had on it
a flour de 115, from the Italian fiorone,
or “ flower,” for the same reason that
an English silver piece is called a
“crown,” or certain gold pieces in
France indifferently a “Napoleon ”
or a “Louis,” or the $10 gold piece in
America an “ eagle.”

Two countries, Austria and Hol-
land, have retained the fiorin as a
unit of monetary value, taking it at a.
time when it was very universal in
Europe, its usage having been ren-
dered general by the financial
supremacy of the little States of
Northern Italy and the imperfect
coinage system of the other countries
of the continent. In the Middle Ages
it was the custom not only of small
States to coin money, but even of the
more important cities which enjoyed
a certain degree of independence.
This caused many inconveniences,
among others the debasement of
com.

As kings became powerful they re-
stricted these privileges, though they
still permitted coinage to be carried
on in different parts of their domin-
ions under royal direction. Charle-
magne was the first sovereign to limit
the coinage of Northern Europe, and
the first to ornament the coins with
his own effigy, after the manner of
the Roman emperors. Since his time
this practice has been general on the
continent, though national arms or
other local symbols have never ceased
entirely to be used, as among the
Greeks and Romans in the early
periods of their history, when an olive
branch, a wine jar, an ox, or some
other image connected with the origin
or industry of the city or State, was
considered an appropriate emblem.

For several hundred years, and
down to a. comparatively recent date,
money was coined at from twenty-
five to thirty different cities in France
that had inherited the privilege. Now
all French money is coined at the
Paris Mint, and bears, instead of the
effigy of some distinguished person, a
head representing the republic, ‘or
Liberty in the more general sense.

The decimal system is in almost un-
iversal use on the continent of Eu-'
rope. Five nations—France, Italy,
Belgium, Greece, and Switzerland—
have formed a monetary union, and
the silver and gold pieces of one coun-
try are legal coins in each of the
other four. The copper coins and
small nickle pieces of Belgium and
Switzerland are not included. The
standard coins on the continent are:
In France, the franc; in Spain, the
peseta; in Italy, the lira; in Holland
and Austria, the florin; in Germany,
the mark; in Russia, the ruble.

The origin of the names of coins in
present use is curious. In many
cases they imply a standard of weight
that lost its significance long ago.
This is the case with the English
standard, the pound. The word
shilling is of German derivation, like
penny, which comesfrom the German
pfennig. The word “ crown” comes
from the image placed on the coin.
The name franc was given by King
John, who first coined these pieces in
1360. They bore the motto “ Le Roi
Frank” (King of the Franks) and
were of two kinds, one representing
the king on horseback, the other on
foot.

The franc was formerly also called
livro (pound), though the connection
with any special weight is not evi-
dent. The name of the German coin,
mark, meaning a weight of eight
ounces, was formerly in general use
in Europe. The name of the Italian
coin that corresponds with the franc
(lira) also means pound. The coins
in present use in Spain have their
names from other sources. The five-
peseta piece, which corresponds with
the American dollar, is called escudo
(shield). “Peseta,” the name of the
small coin representing the monetary
standard, means simply “little piece.”
“ Ruble” is from the word meaning
“to cut,” and was so-called because
originally the coin was made with an
ornamental edge.

Few persons have ever troubled
themselves to think of the derivation
of the word dollar. It is from the
German thai (valley), and came into
use in this way some 300 years ago.
There is a little silver mining city or
district in Northern Bohemia called
Joachinisthal, or J oachim’s Valley.
The reigning duke of the region au-
thorized this city in the sixteenth
century to coin a. silver piece, which
was called “Joachimsthaler.” The
word “joachim” was soon dropped,
and the name “thaler ” only retained.

The piece went into general use in
Germany and Denmark, where the
orthography was changed to “daler,”
whence it came into English and was
adopted by our forefathers with still
further changes in the spelling. The
Mexican dollar is generally called
“ piastre ” in France, and the name is
sometimes applied to our own dollar.
The apellation is;incorrect in either
case, for the word piastre or piastra
has for the last fifty years been only
applied with correctness to a. small
silver coin used in Turkey and Egypt,
which is worth from five to eight
cents. —Chicago Tribune.
