Frank W. Pettygrove of Seattle has the penny that named the.city of Portland, Ore. On the toss of this | coin dercnded the question whether the Willamette metropolis should be known as Portland or Boston. Twice the coin turned “tails,” and the town was named after Portland, Me., the former home of Mr. Pettygrove’s father. A. L. Lovejoy of Massachusetts, a | member of the party that laid out Portland, desired to name it Boston, | after the most important city in his state. Pettygrove wanted to name it Portland, after the most important city in Maine, his native state. They agreed to toss a penny, heads to be | Boston, tails to mean Portland, the best two in three to be the choice. Pettygrove won the first toss; Love- Joy won the second, and the third proved to be tails, and Portland it was. Carroll county who iad been bitter enemies for many years. As the years rolled by, time had a softening effect on one of them, and he took occasion to do a generous thing for his enemy. Filled with the consciousness of hay- ing done a kii.dness to his fae, called on him and related the circu stances, and added: “After ali, Mr. Blank, I am not the worst man in ihe world, am I?” Mr. Blank sat in gloomy silence dur- ing the narrative, and then, looking surlily at him, replied: “You may not be the worst man ever was, but you are the worst that I ever saw.” The white wings of peace were not there that time. Love and the Fan. Probably the first European women to use fans were the Portuguese, per- haps introduced by merchants from their trade wita Japan, though we find mention of their having them in the fourteenth century. In France the in- ventory of Charles V, at the end of the same century, mentions a folding ivory fan. Doubtless the wicked Cath- erine de Medici, with her knowledge of and love of the luxuries of Italy, in- troduced fans to her sisters in France. The many wives of Ilenry VIII of Eng- land, and their court ladies, were used Furnishings. 4 : | gai -| The you Pett: till has igs, Said ications will be heard and_ dete: younger Pettygrove s' Clot G H M ARR Boots, Sh | mined byeald Gommon Coune'l jot tne Villu the identica: penny and would’ not mates? fans, ang ins a ne ‘oa vases? 2 C # e oO: oes of Gra atthe council rooms in the | ad as many as twenty-seven in her : ry¥.G oods 9 ynlage hall tn said Village of Grand Kapids, | take any amount of money for it.
