Spanish sailors on certain days of the week or month go aloft at sunset 'and beat the sheaves and pins of the blocks to drive the devil out of the gear, and then noise they make Ls a horrid din. This is said to have orig- inated in an order given which result- ed In disaster. A certain Spanish squadron that had been anchored some time was surprised by the enemy and could not make sail and escape, as all the blocks were rusted and useless. The Spanish sailor has no prejudice against starting on a voyage on Fri- day, that being the day on which Col- umbus etarted on his voyage of dis- covery. English and American sailors will not sall on that day 1f they can help it.. They would consider the whole trip hoodooed by such a begin. ning. A sneeze at sea would hoodoo the ship unless it banpened to turn to the right, when it brings good luck. Sail- ors have faith in odd numbers, and naval gunners carry out this belief fn the number of times they fire a salute. Whistling for wind is another favor- ite superstition of the men before the mast. This is a trick when ships are becalmed, as "Whistles rash bid tempests roar."

Pauline Johnson. Learning from Our Mistakes. Horace Greeley used to say: "Yon are bound to make mistakes, but let them be new ones, not the same old ones." The levelheaded man may often make mistakes, but he doesn't make the same reistake•twice; they are new ones. H gets a lot of wisdom out of his experiences which keeps him from repeating them. In other words, he profits by his mistakes and goes on to new ventures, new experiences which broaden and. enrich his life, It is said that only fools make mis- takes, because they haven't wit enough to undertake e e ne v s things, It ie also said that a only fools make the' same mistake twice. Yet there are millions of people who po through life con- stantly making the same old mistakes. That's why so many of us fail in our ambitions.. We don't profit by our mis- takes and learn to avoid the pitfalls to which they lead. We don't think enough; we don't learn to compare and measure, and weigh things, to learn their true values; we don't gain any wisdom from our experiences, and so when an old proposition comes to us 1n a new guise we fall. - No man goes very far in this world who does not make mistakes. No man reaches the heights who does not learn from his mistakes; who does not get up every time he fails and keep pushing on with renewed determina- tion to his goal.—O,S,M.

Surnames and Their Origin VANDYKE Variations--Dykeman, Dicker, Dick- man, Racial Origin—Dutch, also English. Source -Locality, also an occupation.. While all of these_ family names are not strictly variations of one another, they do, however, find their sources in the same root word, though the sources lie in two different countries and in two entirely different mean- ings. To begin with Van Dyke is a name that comes from Holland. The prefix "van," similar to the German "von," the French "de Ia," the Anglo-Saxon "atte' and the modern English "of" or "of the," betrays its origin Judie- putably, The dyke, with an original meaning of "a digging," ' long centuries ago, even before the period of family name formation in Europe, came to signify to the dwellers in Holland a digging specially designed to keep the water out; In short, a dam or seawall. The original Van Dykes, of course, were simply dwellers on or near the sear wall, and in its first use the name was merely locally descriptive. On the other hand, a "dY ker" or "dykman" meant in the speech of the medieval Anglo-Saxons a "digger" or "dig -man," one who digs. More spe- ciflcaily the word was applied to farm workers, to men who dug the soil, in many instances performing services for which the plow was more common- ly used later, though the plow was a quite well-known instrument even in those days and long before then, There is a line in Chaucer watch reveals clearly the meaning of the verb: "He' would thresh, and thereto dike and delve—" MacLAREN, Varlation—MecLeu ren. Racial Origin—Scottish, Source—,A given name, Here is another Scottish family name derived from a given name which the progenitors of its bearers brought to Scotland from Ireland in the ancient days when the Dairiadic Gaels crossed over and by conquest and settlement won the dominance of the Highlands. The MacLaren's or MacLarens are traditionally demanded from "Loarn" or "Laurin," who was the son of Ere, one of the Dairiadic chieftains who settled In Argyle, in the sikth century. This "Loarn" is the same chief who Is said to have given the district of Lora its name. The clan, for the MacLarens once constituted one of the leading clans in the Highlands, was for a long time a big factor in Scottish history, As ear- ly as the reign of King Kenneth Mae- A,ipin it appears to have acquired con- siderable territories in Strathearn and Balquhidder, In 1138 they played a prominent part in the Battle of the Standard, under the leadership e dersh tP of "Ma- lise"h t e Earl of Strathearn. But the clan was reduced from the status of proprietorship over its land in 1138, when the earldom of Strath - earn become the property of the Scot- tish crown, though they retained a status as perpetual tenants, But its fortunes received a setback from which they have never recovered in 1745, when it took part in the up- rising which attempted to put the Stu- art line, in the person of "Bonnie Prince Charlie," back on the throne of England and Scotland, A House Spider's Eggs.

One bat night last summer, how- ever, a daring youth ventured out of leis garden and a little way down the street, clad in pyjamas. A passing policeman instantly arrested him as an escaped lunatic; his suspicions were confirmed by the fact that the unfortunate prisoner—this also is com- prehensible — had no identification Papers in his pyjamaa pocket..
