The old name for the city OF London
was Lynden or iAynden, meaning "the
city by the lake" An old tradition
gives us to understand that London
was founded by Brute, a descendant
Of Hneas, and 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 Cer-Lud. This latter is probably
the correct version Of the origin Of the
name of Loudon II for no other rea-
son because 1t is such an easy matter
to detect a similarity between the ex-
pressions London and Lud's Town. 1t
is claimed by some writers that there
was a city on the present site Of Lon
don In the year 1107 B. G., and 1t is
known that the Romans founded city
there and called 1t Londinium In the
year 81 A. D.

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 vanity, she
possessed 90 complete official cos
tunes, 102 French gowns. 100 robes
with trains and 67 without, 126 an
tique dresses, 1876 bodices. 125 tunics,
not to mention such trlfles as 90 man.
ties, IS dressing gowns and q fans.
1t 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 5000 articles were found
duly catalOgued In her wardrobe which
had adorned her proud person.

MAY your shadow never grow less
or "be less.' That is a familiar salu-
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 sub
terranean hail. with the evil one after
them. II they run 30 fast that his
Satanic majesty can catch only their
shadow or part Of 1t 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
6end.
1t Is well known that after man
reaches the age OF about ffty-five his
stature grows shorter; therefore his
shadow must be less. To say, May
your shadow never grow less" means,
MAY you never grow oider."-New
