It is "Grip fast." More than one of the family mot- toes to be found in Burke'e "Peer- age," 'that fat and formidable vol- ume so frequently seen on British center -tables, had its origin in some traditional advents }reef a far -away ancestral founder. Some belong to •noble English houses; mire to those of Scotland. Bartholomew Leslie,,far back in the days. of William the Conqueror, saved froth drowning the Scottish Princess Margaret. As he rose be- side her in the water,' after leap- ing to the rescue, he bade,her•grip fast his girdle, and he would swim with her to shore. "Gin the buckle bide," said the princess. But she held fast, and so did the buckle; and a grateful sov- ereign granted her rescuer a coat of arm bearing three golden buck- les, and the motto "Grip fast," The earldom of Rothes is one of the few in which the title, when there is no male heir, descends to a daughter. A Scotch motto of even more in- teresting origin is the curious one borne by the Conynghams : "Over, fork over." Apart from its history, it has a suggestion of "stand and deliver" about it ; besides, "fork over" is certainly slang. Neverthe- less, it arose, like` that of the Les lies, from the circumstances of a royal rescue. According to family tradition, Malcolm Conyngham, who lived in the reign of that "gracious Duncan" whom Macbeth slew, escaped after the murder with Prince Malcolm, Duncan's son, from. Scotland. At one time when closely pursu- ed, Malcolm Conygham saved the prince by concealing him in a barn and forking hay over him. • When Prince Malcolm, after Macbeth's overthrow and death, came to the throne, he generously rewarded his faithful friend, and granted him a pitchfork to be honorably borne up- on his :arms, with the words, "Over, fork over" inscribed beneath.

Starch was never heard of in England until after Queen Eliza- beth came to the throne. This statement may sound a little start- ling, but it is quite true, neverthe- less. Elizabeth's father, bluff King Hal, was the first English monarch to wear any sort of neck band. That was very plain, about an inch in depth, and made of lace. Yet only fifty years later, an author of the times — Henry Peaeham— writes : "He is not a gentleman or in the fashion, whose hand of Italian work standeth him not at least £3 to £4. Yea, a seamstress in Holborn told me that there are some of 860 pike a piece!" Fahey paying such a ewe as $3,600 a dozen for one's collars! The origin of the present starched. collar was the ruff. In the year 1564 Queen Elizabeth first used a, coach. Her coachman came from Holland. He was a man named Boenen, and his wife brought with her from that country the art of clean starching. Soon afterwards, a certain Ma- dame Dinghen came from the Neth- erlands, and started a laundry 'with clear starching in London. A very .good thing she made of it, for the daughters of worthy citizens crowded to her to learn the art, and she charged them $25 a piece Twenty-five dollars was a lot of money in those days --equal to at least $100 of modern money. As soon. as •starohing became com- mon, starched ruffs took the place of the thin band of lace, and, like all new fashions throughout history, this one ran absolutely riot. Ruffs grew so large that they had to be supported by special wire frames. They were worn nine inch- es deep. Men and women adopted them. Special implements were used for starching them ; these were known as "setting sticks," "struts," and "poking sticks." The first two were made of wood or bone, the latter of iron.' Higgins, a tailor, whose shop was at the corner of the Haymarket, in- vented a patent support for ruffs, and made a fortune outrof it. He called it a "Piocadil,' and it is said that this was the origie of Pic- cadilly. ' Charles I. is usually seen in pic- tures wearing a falling band of lace ; but when he first came to the throne he wore the• ruff. It was not until the fourth year of his reign that he took to the well-known lace neckwear. The falling band became as ex- travagant as the ruff; it was made of point lace, and costa small for- tune, The Civil War ended this fashion, and when Charles II. came back he brought with him the wig known as the peruke, which covered the back and sides of the neck. The result was that "bands" of lawn sued' as judges still wear as part of their official raiment came into vogue. Laced cravats followed in the time of William and. Mary, to be soon superseded by the "stock," buckled behind the neck and plait- ed in many folds,' This fashion was very long-lasting, . and we have „,,all read how the famous "Beau" Brummel would use a dozen a morning, until he got one tied to his perfect satisfaction. -London Answers. only thing that seemed.to build her up and furnish her the peace of health. "From infancy,'f she says, "I have not been strong. Being ambi- tious mbitious to learn at any cost I finally got to the High School, but soon had to abandon my studies on ac- count of nervous prostration and hysteria. "My food did not agree with me, I grew thin •and'"despondent. I' could not enjoy the simplest social affair for I suffered constantly from nervousness in spite of all sorts of medicines. "This wretched condition con- tinued until I was twenty-five, when I became interested in the letters of those who had cases like mine and who were getting well by eat- ing Grape -Nuts. "I had little faith but procured a box and after the first dish I ex- perienced a peculiar satisfied feel- ing that I had never gained from any ordinary food. I slept and rested better that night, and in a few days began to grow stronger. "I had a new feeling of peace and restfulness. In a few weeks, to my great joy, the headaches and nervousness left me and life be- came bright and hopeful. I re - suited my studies and later taught ten months -with ease—of course using Grape -Nuts every day.

Saer, d River to Be Spanned-- Changes panned-Changes in River Bed. The task of bridging the Ganges, the great river of northern India which /eaves from an ice cava at the foot of the Himalayan snow bed,; has been assigned to a croup of English engineers, says the Pall Mall Gazette, This bridge, which is over a mile. in len th, I's' to carry the Eastern Bengal State Railway over the Ganges from Demetkelia, to Sara Ghat, the place of pilgrimage, to which hundreds of thousands of de- vout Hindus repair once a year to wash ' away their sins ha the secret river. Spanning the rivers the bridge will be •carried on .steel trestles, which in turn will be supported on massive steel grilles in granite piers. The contract consists of fif- teen main spans, each 359 feet long and fifty-two feet high, .and weigh- ing 1,300 tons. The Ganges is essentially a river of great cities; Calcutta, Patna, Benares, Allahabad, all lie on its course, and the ancient capitals of Agra and Delhi are on the Jumna, higher'. up. Great changes take place from time to time in the river bed of the Ganges, which consider- ably alter the face of the country. Eetensive islands are then thrown u},; and many decayed and ruined cities that are then discovered at- test the -changes in the river bed in ancient times. The bridge will cost about 21,250,000 to build. ZAM-BTJK AND OUTDOOR LIFE.
