Contrary to popular belief the word dollar as applied to a unit of currency is not of American origin at all. The name dollar is derived from a town named Joachimsthal in Bohemia, where the noble counts of Schiick, in the 15th century. struck large coins of sil- ver from metal mined in their neigh- borhood. These coins became known as “Joachimsthaler.” That was a rather long name for any people to use in everyday trade and conversation and it became shortened to “thaler.” In low Germany the word “daler” corresponds to the Bohemian thaler, and it is from the German daler that our own word, which is English, is derived. Why the story. ‘The mines very rich in silver, and the coins kept up the reputation of the mines. Hence the word thaler, or daler, or dollar, stood in people’s minds for good mone; The word became known in many As early as 1606 the word was known in Europe, Africa and Asia.

The line occurs when Ross tells Malcolm of siain Norsemen who were denied burial until their king had disbursed “$10,000 to our general use.” In the medieval world German thalers and Spanish pleces-of-eight be- came the chief coins of the world. Both of these colns came flowing 40t the colonies — the pieces-of-eignt. geom Southern Europe and the West Indies and the German thalers into New Am- sterdam and Pennsylvania It is over 400 years since the name of a silver plece was first coined in Joachimsthal.

In America the colony of Massachu- setts was first to recognize the dollar. In 1642 it was ordained that the Ger- man dollar should be equivalent in trade to 5 shillings In those times coins were made of unalloyed metal, and today the dollar is worth only 4 shillings because it has somewhat less silver than its ancestor. —a Heavy rains have besn causing great property e in North Manchuris.
