The Scotch Halfuenny.

Englishmen are familiar with the
name "bawbee," applied to the Scotch
halfpenny, but to few does 1t bring the
association Of a baby queen and a loyal
people. Those who meet with the word
In their reading do not often stop to
ask how 1t came to be applied. 1t ap-
pears that the first attempt at the por-
traiture Of the unfortunate Mary,
queen Of Scots, was made in her in
fancy, and her small face was en-
graved upon the Scottish ~halfpennies
at the time of her coronation in 1913,
when she was but nine months old.
A number of these small coins are still
preserved, and 1t will be easily under
stood how the name "bawbee," or
baby, came to be given to the coin
bearing the effigy of the baby. The
halfpenny of Scotland is still common
~ called the bawbee, although the
baby face nc longer appears on It.

Three thoroughly frightened women
and one broad shouldered man wear

About O'Clock Mrs Deur was

Before visiting the upstairs rooms

contents disarraDged and everything
indicated that he had made thorough
search, but so far as known no articles

HOW A MAN BROWNS.
fhs hcnson lie Sometime. Com.
Three Times to the Surface.

fhd reason lie Sometimes Comes
Three Times to the Surface.
Few populht fallacies are of such
wide extent as the belief that person
must rise to the surface three times,
no more and no legs before he can pos
sibly drown.
There is little ground for this sup
position. although it has been almost
universally believed III for generations.
The truth is that n drowning person
may sink the first time never to rise
again, or he may, as he indeed does in
the majority of cases, rise three times
before he sinks forever
1t all depends upon the quantity OF
water that he swallows when he sinks
and the size of his lungs. The human
body III life naturally floats while the
lungs are inflated. AS long as one
keeps his head above the surface Of
the water he can float, face up, with
out having TO move hand or foot.
But MS soon rs IL person sinks he
gulps and imbibes quantity of water.
If after he has swallowed water he
has any air In his lungs, he will I'M
doubtedly rise again and will continue
to sink and rise alternately until all
the air is expelled from his lungs, when
he will drown.
/. In most cases the frightened victim
of an accident swallows enough water
when he first sinks to leave him In
very exhausted condition; but, as there
is still air left In his lungs, he soon
finds himself on the surface again.
Each time he sinks, however, the sup
ultimately there Is no longer sufficient
to support him.

JAPANESE REGALlA.
Royal Emblem. without which TIA,
Emperor Could Not Rule.


The Japanese royal emblems consist
of copper mirror, symbolic of knowl-
edge; steel sword symbolizing cour-
age, and agate jewels, representing
mercy. The story of their origin was
told thus by Il Japanese official:
The sun goddess became angry with
the earth and withdrew into II cave,
plunging everything into darkness.
The other deitics could not induce her
to come out, so began to make noise
MS of great rejoicing. which aroused
the curiosity of the irate goddess. She
finally cume to the mouth Of the cave
to learn the cause of the upronr and
was told that they had found Il more
beautiful goddess than herself. The
sun goddess came out then, demand
Ing to see her rival, and the crafty del
ties held the mirror before her, which
drove all her sulltiness away.
The sword was taken by Susenoo,
the brother of the sun goddess, from
the tail of an eight headed serpent
that had been annually devouring n
beautiful girl Suscnoo placed eight
great tubs of Wine In his way and when
he was sleeping killed him and took
the sword as IL trophy.
The sword is kept in an apartment
near the imperial Dedchamber and
called the Room of the Sword. The
Jewels have also n room to themselves,
and the mirror is in charge of priest
ess. The regaliu have the highest sig
nificance i'm the eyes of the people, and
1t is held that no emperor Gun possibly
rule without the three virtues which
they represent He must. moreover,
hold the nctual tokens. and in the i'm
perial code 1t is enjoined that on the
death of the sovereign his heir must
take possession of them.
