 while in the execution of his duty to
 his king against their nefarious trade.
 The professors victim believed this
 story implicitly, and died happy in his belief.
 ] Scores of such instances have been recorded, many of them even more glar- lnely ridiculous. There Is one feature of heraldry, ancient and modern. which
 has a bearing, not always noticed, on preseht- -day tendencies. The fact that
 so many genuine armoriaf bearings are represented by puns or by playing upon the family name in design, renders the
 business of "faking" in heraldry very
 easy, and lends to 1t a plausibility
 which often hoodwinks even the not
 over-credulous.
 Many of the best families of today those of whose right to armoriaI bear ings there can be no question-have eliminated. for the sake of simplicity, the complicated part of their coats-of- arms. This leaves many of the coats-
 of-arms of our notwithstanding gentry as mere examples of the old custom of depicting in design puns upon their names or their ancestors caIlings at the period when the right
 to bear arms was granted.
 And fearful puns. TOT the most part, they are. The Abbott of Ramsey s arms, for instance. bear simple design of ram fin the sea. Igisp, Abbot of

 From an advertising pamphlet sent him by professor in heraldic research. he got an idea that his family possessed crest and a coat-of-arms. and for $s.000 was happily enlightened. Ac- cording to the professor, the ancestors coat-of-arms bore 'ian azure gull dis played argent, and three sea waves. or, with bar dexter" The crest was a sea gull, holding a fish in it's talons.
 All this was like Chinese to the pur- chaser until the professor explained the origin by a pretty story of the days when hawking was the sport of kings and the nobility. An ancestor, he said, was the kings hawker, and saved the life of Her Majesty's favorite hawk, which was in desperate strug- gle with a gull, by cleverly piercing the gull with an arrow without injur- ing the hawk.

EARLY WILD FlowERs.

Knoxville Journal: Do you know
that q wonderful secret lies In the
fact that many OF the wild flowers
bloom almost as soon as the frost
leaves the ground in early springtime?
The particular species we have in
mind are the blood root (Sanguinarla
Ca~nadensls), May Apple (Podophyl-
lum Peltatum), Rue Anemone (Syn.
desmon Thalistroides), and Dutch
mans Brooches" (Dlcentra Cuculla.
ria). All Of the above except the May
apple, have been in full bloom for the
past three weeks.
The secret of their vigor and hardi.
ness lies In this fact: They are Of the
bulb-root varieties. They bloom
very early In springtime and soon
dispense with all floral obligations,
spending the remainder Of the season
storing up food material which shoots
the stalk into the air and expands
the leaves before the fberous.rootad
species have time TO accumulate any
~nourishment whatever. FIRMLY an.
chored In the bulboGs root-stcck, the
petioles or stems rapidly expand the
large, fieshy leaves. Once firmly an.
chored the stalks and leaves take up
the work Of food elaboration and rap
i'd Towering results.
All Of the species mentioned are OF
the forest varieties, requiring but
little light or heat. On that account
two OF them, the blood.root and the
May apple. have flowers that are
deathly white. In the other two the
blossoms are almost colorress. Such
floral beauties are strangely in con.
trast with the purple, blue, red and
yellow varieties which require the
sun Of August and September TO give
them rich colOring.
