orIaIn Of HeraIdry.

According to the highest author-
ties, heraldry finds It's starting point
in the totemism Of prehistoric man.
In the barbAric custom Of painting or
carving the totem on oars, the bows
and sides Of canoes. weapons. pillars
in front OF houses. etc. and In tat
tooing it on the various parts Of the
body, We have the real origin OF the
insignia that are 30 precious to the
upper-tendom OF to-day. 1t was in
the ignorant superstition Of the saw
age that he sprang from a crane or
bear or some other animal that the
various coat OF arms" Of the big
families' Of the present tins found
their inception.

effort to reach shore at point where
the surf did not seem to be impossible.
One day, when the beach seemed
much better than ueusl, the captain
and the ships surgeon ventured
ashore. The captain Rfterward mar
rated the adventure Of their landing
to a small but enthusiastic audience.
He said that after waiting outside the
surf half an hour the head man sud
denly gave the order. and in mo-
ment they were in the breakers, rid
ing on the top Of one Of them, and
speeding toward the shore at the rate
OF seventy miles an hour"
The captain wes In the bow Of the
boat, we'll braced and cushioned. But
when the boat struck the beach with
the force Of railway collision, the
doctor was thrown violently over two
thwarts into the captains bosom,
whom he olasped about the neck with
a steellike grip.
The next moment another breaker
picked the boat up and hurled II upon
the beach. throwing both captain and
doctor to a perfectly safe distance,
where they sprswled upon the sand.
The doctor. still hugging the captains
neck, and very much frightened, ex-
claimed:

anybody killed but you and me?"
