S, BILLS IN VIENNA — Writings of . Historians Show That They Were: Accurate and Precise .. in- Money Matters. The Romans were accurate and .precise in money matters. To quote & writer of the time: “No one will pay a cent before the day it is due; they are so particular about money and consider time ' so profitable.” Each per ‘fon kept his private ac- counts, which included such items as the-amount on hand at the bank, the sums which had been loaned or borrowed, the money paid out for household expenses, ete. Very little rm&"'mmmk«phmthe house, s the Romans had’3 regular system of banking, depositing their money and drawing it out in varying amounts as it was needed. The business methods of the bank- ers were similar in many respects to the modern, and careful records were kept of deposits, withdrawals, transfers and interest due. It was not necessary for a despositor to draw out the actual cash and pay it over in order to discharge an obliga- tion “unless he wished, as he could give a “scriptum,” which apparently corresponded to the modern check. A business device similar to our promissory note also existed. The most important activity of the banker was lending money at in- terest. The financial responsibility of would-be borrowers was-carefully examined, and the place of the mod- ern mercantile agency with its credit fists was filled to some extent by i in- dividual initiative. , MADE FAMOUS BY THACKERAY Amelia Sedley’'s House Still Exists, Also the Old-Fashioned Domicile of Colonel Newcome. Americans have secured a rich col- lection of Thackeray’s manuscripts and letters, but they cannot rob us of the houses where his characters lived. Amelia Sedley’s house in Russell square still exists, although this square has undergone more altera- tion than any other in Bloomsbury. A little further west may be seen the ‘house in Fitzroy square occu- pied*by .Colonel Newcome, its black door's4cheerfully ornamented in the style of ‘the erid of the last century, with a funereal urn in the center above .the entry, with garlands and the skulls of rams at each corner.” Then, although the Charterhouse boys have removed to Godalming, the pensioners still remain in their old home and the visitors are freely admitted to view the fine-old hall which sheltered the colonel in his last years.—London Chronicle. . .. SHIP HAS HISTORY. A prime favorite of the traveling public of the last generation is short- ly to disappear when the condemned United States transport Hancock is gold to the shipbreakers. For before she hoisted the Stars and Stripes in 1898 she was the Guion liner Ari- zon4, famous both as a record-break- er and from the fact that as a new ship she rammed an iceberg at near- ly full speed, telescoped her bow for a considerable length and yet man- aged to bring her passengers safely into St. Johns.—London Globe. BUILT OF CONCRETE. Owing to the high price and scarcity of steel during the war, a gas company in Syracuse found it necessary to build the shells of a 200-horse power gas producer and scrubber out of concrete staves. The shélls are’eight feet in diameter and the staves medstre 24 by 10 by 214 inches. They are connected by tongue and groove joints. Between the con- crete and the fire brick lining there s a three-inch space filled with a heat-resmtmg material. GLADYS AND THE MOON. ™ The other night Uncle John took three-,enr—old Gladys out to see the moon. She was delighted with it and made many quaint remarks about it. Suddenly it happened to go behind a black cloud. TFor a few seconds Gladys was quiet. Then in a wondering voice she asked, "Who blowed it out?” OUGHT TO PAY. ““Cholly tried to kiss me, upset the canoe, fell out, ruined his new suit and was nearly drowned. He’s in the hospital now. What should 1 do?” “I think you should go around and give him that kiss.”—Kansa« City Journal.
