Nine shilling, sir." Now we come to the locomotor ataxia afâ€" fairâ€"the ‘"two shilling‘"‘ pieces, of which there must be fiftyâ€"seven varicties, each different from the rest. Some are labelled *‘florins‘"‘ and some aren‘t labelied at all. From locomotor ataxia to complete paresis is the transition from the varieties of ""two shillipg‘* pleces to the half crown, the latter boeing worth two shilling and sixpence. It is just as if the U. S. A. put into currency sizty cent pleces as well as half dollars. I lost weight and temper during my first wrestle with halfâ€"crowns and twoâ€"shilling wpieces. lin a "shop?‘ (another ame for store) I had purchased one shilling‘s worth of portable merchandise and had given up a tenâ€"shilling plece, in return for which I hoped to receive nine shillings in change. Four silver coins, all about the same size was passed over to me. I counted themâ€" The ‘‘sixpence," or "tanner," is a silver coin something like the dime and worth a trifle more than twelve cents. Then comes the "shilling," familiarly termed a *"bob," worth just a trifle less than the American twentyâ€"five cent piece, and confusing only becauge there are four varieties. However, all are of the same size. Next we come to the little "thrippence‘"â€" threepenceâ€" a silver coin more prevalent than it ought to be and unpleasantly reâ€" miniscent of the nonsensical three cent piece which was once a nuisance in the United States. *‘Thrippences,‘"" however, are not so common that they add greatly to the moneâ€" tary worries of everyday life. Next comes the pennyâ€"as big round as a half dollarâ€"â€"and here you have a coin that counts in England. "D" is the letter used to describe it. You can see signs in stores reading ‘"2d,"" "4d," etc., and when you ask a well informed Briton what the "d" really means he will tell you that it is an abbrevâ€" lation for "denarius," a Latin word signiâ€" fying a certain form of coin and borrowed from the Roman era. That is all very inâ€" teresting from the scholastic viewâ€"point, but the ‘"d‘" probably stands for one of the expletives uttered by Cacsar and the other Roman when they were forced to count English money. From that day to tais British money has been shocking ioreigners into insanity. Reâ€" garding money of the larger denominations there is not much to be said. The first coin of really common use to be found is the haifâ€"penny, or ‘‘ay‘penny,‘"‘ as they call it here. This is rather larger than the American cent, although of the some apâ€" proximate value. It is a coin with which to blll.y1 newspapers and load down collection plates. Cacsar, as you will remember, was approaciâ€" ed oy an ippecunious uondoner, who offered dort ‘arf a crowa to load hin to a good hotel, and Caesar, blinded by the fog, yielded. He fummbvled around in his money ofikel and fished out what he thought might a balf crown, but it proved to be only a two shillâ€" ing plece. Of course he was promptly brought to book by the keen Londoner, who could distinguish between "two" and "twoâ€"andâ€" six‘" just as readily as the unfortunate Roâ€" man could count talents. From that day to tais British money has been shocking ioreigners into insanity.

A recent authority advances the opinion that it originated from a Roman custom and became common afâ€" ter the Roman occupation of England. Thes Julia and Octavia, married â€"to Pompey and Cicero, were called by the Romans Julia of Pompey and Octavia of Cicero and in later times the marâ€" ried women of most European countries signed their names the same way, but omitted the "of."
