Wise World of Wellen presented by Salem Eye Clinic

1. Of all the circulating U.S. currency in the world, about 80% is in $100 bills.

2. America’s oldest ally is . . . Morocco. It became the first nation to recognize the U.S. in December of 1777. And we’ve had an unbroken treaty with them ever since.

3. Days Inn didn’t get its name because you’re supposed to stay for days or anything like that . . . it’s named after its founder, Cecil B. Day.

4. The Big Mac was originally called The Aristocrat. That name bombed, so it was switched to the Blue Ribbon Burger. That also bombed, so they went with Big Mac . . . which obviously stuck.

5. Essential oils get their name because they contain the “essence” of a plant’s smell . . . not because they’re crucial or vital in any way.
