The eagle. although IL appears on

a very early date. probably had no Sig

blem IL was used by the Persians The
Tuscans were probably the first people
10 adopt the eagle as a royal device
as IL was among the omblems of royal
ty which they sent as "a token Of ami
ty to King Tarqun. From that time
the eagle remained one of the princi-
pal cmblems Of Roman power. both In
the days Of the republic and the cm-
pire. The double-he eagle was
first employed by tho Byzantine en-
perors. who thereby expressed their
claim TO both the Eastern and Western
empires. or the Western emperors
Charlemagnc also adopted the double
headed eagle as his symbol. and 81 is
today the emblem Of Russia, Austria,

conditions are such that they act with
out supervision or control and at first
without effective check from public
opinion they delude many innocent
people into making Investments or em-
barking in kinds OF business that arc
really unsomd. When the misdeeds OF
these successfully dishonest men are
discovered, suffering comes not only
upon them but upon the innocent men
whom they have misled. IL Is painful

naturally. when n does occur those who
suffer are apt TO forget that the longer
