The Mower Sang.
The mower paused to whet his scythe,
And whetting it he sang
Till to the merry tune and blithe
The stretching -hay- fields rang.
The sweat ran down his sunburnt face,
But deep his breath and slow,
A. wind made ripples in the place
Where still he had to mow.
The whetstone rasped along the snath,
Which hummed beneath the stroke,
The knife that had laid low the swath.
In ringing triumph spoke.
What words were coupled to the tune
He sang amid the hay?
It may have been awerdles's nine
The mower slang that -day.
But fully did I understand
The song that then I heard;
As though each note the mower
spanned .
Was wedded to• a word.
And as he meg my dull heart sang
' And lifted to the blue,
'While all the stretching hayfield Tang
And all my spirit, too.
—Maurice Morris.

Funexal services for an old couple
who are still alive have just been held
at Kochi, Japan.
The man, who is the proprietor of a
fashionable restaurant, and his wife,
are both seventy, and it was their de-
sire that ,their funeral should take
place before their death. -
A long :cortege of "mourners" left
the Kochi parkand all the procedure
of the funeral service according to
'Buddist rites was carried out in regu-
lar order at the Homgwan Temple.
After the service the .couple, enter-
tained many of their "mourners" at a
dinner, given to celebrate their longe-
vity. They believe that the "funeral"
has •. given them anew lease of life.

GVhile on his route from Singapore,
a violent 'disturbance was noted on
the surface irf the sea, wherea mass
"daelc in color, with straight sides,
about - SOOft. in height and between
two and three miles in length," had
risenabove the surface.
"There were breakers along the• en-

Repeated, explosions were noted,
causing large waves. These continued

Pennies as Pledges.
hi its original form the penuy was
not e coin, but a token or pledge. , Its
derivation conies from the same source
as that from which we get tho word
"pawn," and also such w orde as
"panel,," "pant" eoueteepees," end
`panicle."
The readiest ,pledge to leave in
pawn was cloth, fiance the Latin "pan-
ne," a piece of cloth. The original
panel was a piece of cloth, or patch,
and from this we get the word ",pace".
as applied to a pane of glass, and also
the word "penny," its Metal meaning'
being a pledge or token, and bene a
coin. Originally the word was spelt
„Deny,,,
The word shilling really means ar
division of money into small parts,
and is obtained from a wordemean'ing
"to divide'"Thus, in the first place,
it was not a coin, but an inculcation of
ni'oney having been made up in small
form.
Sterling, as applied to money, is d'e
rived from the Hanseatic League,
which had an important house in Eng-
land. As their land lay "to the east
of England," Englishmen called them
"Easterlings', and the gold they paid
in the course of trade became known
as "Easterling money." Subsequently
the expression 'became sterling.
C.G.S. •"Arctic" Again Sails
for°Far North.
The Canadian Government steam-
ship Arctic sailed from Quebec on July
9th for points in the Canadian Arctic
archipelago in the provisional district
of Franglin, Northwest Territories. It
had- been intended that the ship re-
cently purchased in England for . this
service, and renamed the' Franklin,
would be used Cilia year, but owing to
unforeseen delays in having her hull
strengthened to meat ice conditions'
this was impossible and it was, neces-
sary to recommission the famous old
Arctic for one more northern voyage.
As last year the expedition, which is
in charge of the North West Terri-
tories Branch of the Department of
the Interior, is commanded by Mr. J.
D. Craig; and . Captain J. E. Bernier is
, in charge of Cho Arctic. Those on
, board include a number of surveyors,
naturalists, and engineers to investi-
gate the natural resources' of the .re-
glen; the members of the special court
which is to conduct the trial of -three
Ezkimoe charged with miaksder; and a
number of members of the Royal Cana-
dian Mounted Police to relieve men
stationed in the north. The cargo con-
sisted chiefly of supplies for the posts
at Craig Harbor and Ponds Inlet and
for the, new -posts• it le intended to es-
tablieh. It is expected the Aretic• will
return in. October.

LL NEWMAN
Variations—Neuman, Neumann, New-
comer,. Newcum, Newcomb.
Racial Origin -English and German.
Source—Descriptive.
It was not until after the Norman,
eomquest, and the taro races, Norman
and Anglo-Saxon, had begun to inter
mingle tho'rou'ghly, that the period of,
industrial growth began.
This period, one of :increasing 'pros-
perity for the. medieval English, was
also the period iii which the real
growth of family names began in that
country. It was a period in which, as
a result of the new social and econo-
mic order, there was a' considerable
shifting about of population occurring..
Men moved about from place to place,
in the :s'l'ackening bonds of •feutbalisin,
searching for new opportunities.
There was not a community that
did not have its quota of new settlers.
When you search for another ,word
than "ncwoomers" by which to desig-
nate them, yon realize' how, naturally
they came to be called "n'ewcome'rs"
by the communities in which they set -
tied. Such navies as "Peter le Newe,"
"Geoffrey le Newcomer" and -"Roger
Newoolnnien" ("newly come") are
quite frequent in the medieval records
of about this, period.
The nanne of Newcomb properly
should not have -that final "b," for it
does not coins from the word "comb,"
ies'eriptive of the character of the
lend, like the nanime Combs, Coombe•.
and Coombes,
Neuman and Neumann are for tiie
most part German •equivalents of the
English name. The latter is in vir

"Skyrocketing" the Price
of Chairs.
Everyone knows how exorbitant the
prices' of genpine antique furniture
frequently are. The purchasers- are
generally rich and don't often dispute
the price, and the supply is rarely
equal to the demand. In a recent
court case, says London Opinion, a
witness who was a furniture dealer
testified as follows:
"In October, 1920, I went to Sudbury.
Hall, Lord Vernon's:' place in Derby-
shire, to bring to town ten .Chipper-
dale chairs and two settees that we
had bought. In a. few days we sold
them to Messrs. Dighton."
"What did you pay for them?" asked
the examining lawyer.
"About six hundred pounds."
"How long was it before you sold
them to Messrs. Dighton?"
"About nix weeks."
"For how much?"
"Onethousamd four bundled pounds:"
"And then they were sold to Mr.
Shrager for three thousand pounds!
