tation. The origin is dim, but may be
as follows: When persons have made
certain progress in the black arts they
are compelled to run through a sub-
terranean hall, with the evil one after
them. If they run so fast that his
Satanic majesty can catch only their
shadow or part of it they become first
rate magicians, but lose either all or
part of their shadow. The expression
means; May you escape wholly and
entirely from the clutches of the foul
fiend.
It is wnll known that after a man
reaches the age of about' fifty-five his
stature grows shorter; therefore his
shadow must be less. T9 say, "May
your shadow never grow less," means,
"May you never grav

The Name of London.
The old name for tbe city of London
was Lyndon or Llynden, meaning "the
city by the lake." An old tradition
gives us to understand that London
was founded by Brute, a descendant
of Xneas, an that it was first called
New Troy or Troynovant. In the time
of Lud it was surrounded by a wall
and was :then known as Lud's Town,
or Cr-Lud. This latter is probably
the coerect version of the origin of the
name of London if for no other rea-
son because it is such an easy matter
to defect a similarity between the ex-
pressions London and Lud's Town. Il
is Claimed by some *writers that there
was a city on the present site of Lon
don in the year 1107 B. C., and it is
known that the Romans founded a etty
there and called it Londinium In the
year 61 A. D.
Queen Beale Wardrobe.
Royal annals have never recorded a
more varied and. extensive wardrobe
than that which belonged to the "vir-
gin queen." Even at the age of sixty-
eight, when she might be supposed to
have outlived her youthful v liter, she
possessed 99 complete official cos-
tumes, 102 French gowns, 100 robes
with trains and 67 without, 126 an-
tique dresses, 136 bodices, 125 tunics,
not to mention such trifles as 96 man-
tles, 85 dressing gowns and 27 fans.
It is possible that she had an ugly
foot, for she possessed only nine pairs
of shoes, which, considering her ex-
travagances in other articles of ap-
parel, must have some meaning. At
her death 3,000 articles were found
duly catalogued in her wardrobe which
had adorned ber proud person.
The Effect of Punctuation.
The following lines, found in an old
book, improbable as they may seem on
first reading, lose all their improbabil-
ity by inserting semicolons after the
words in italics:
1 saw a cloud leegirt with 117 . round
I saw a sturdy oak creep on t le ground
I saw an ant swallow up a -whale
1 saw the boiling sea brimful of ale
I saw a. vial glass fifteen yards deep
I saw a, well full'of man's tears that -weep
I saw a, man's eyes all In a flame of fire
I saw a house high as the moon or higher
1 saw the radiant saa even at midnight
1 zo,w a man who saw this wondrous'

Maple Sligifile.
It is said that the first sugar ever
made in Vermont was made in Ben-
nington 1 March, 1763, near the log
cabin of Captain Samuel Robinson,
the first settler of the town, who came
from Hardwick, Mass, The sap was
caught in short logs hollowed that
held about a gallon. Many pounds
of sugar were made and a liquor eask
' full of sirup. -e
A Sudden question,
Professor Jowett was at a dinner in
London. Be said to a young man who
was one pf the guests, "What was the
saddest event in bleiory?" The young
man, much taken aback, stammered
out, "Robert Elmore.", "No," said the
master, regarding him compeplonate-

Meal liot Water for Blue Ribbon Tea
Not merely simmering — must be fresh and must boll
vigorously.
Then it will absorb the deliciousness and fragrance from
Blue Ribbon—take all the good out of it.
Let it steep at least six minutes—eight if possible—in an
earthenware teapot, and you'll have the best cup of tea in
your life.
