SOURCE OF NAME is HIDDEN
Scholars Own Themselves at Loss
as to Whence Came the Term
"Mephistopheies."

There has been much discussion con-
corning the origin of the word
"Mephistopheles" in the past, which
has, moreover, as yet ended in no
very satisfactory conclusion. Some
very bizarre explanations had been
propounded before the time of Goethe,
who was himself forced to own to the
musician Zelter in a letter of Novem-
Der 2O,1S29: II cannot give any de-
finite answer to the question Whence
comes the name Mephistopheles%
According to one theory it was
hybrid Graeco-Hebraic formation of
mephis and tophel (the liar); accord
ing to another it's etymology was en-
tirely Greek-very dubious Creek
mephostophilos, ''he who does not love
the light" Though this derivation is
hardly acceptable, it appears that this
was the original form OF the name,
the second vowel being replaced by
az at first in England, whence 1t
was taken into the popular German
mysteries.
In the last number of the Goethe
Jahrbuchs Herr Oelhke gives an en-
tirely novel derivation, which, If far
fetched, has at least the merit of orig
chapters ~ and XIV. OF the Second
Book of Samuel, Mephiboschetu and
Architophel.

sitting near whether the seat was

There the matter ended until the

KEEPING THE BOYS STRAIGHT
Father Recognized Force of ApneaI

Worked Well.

were recently chatting over their
cigars.

father comes in strong, too. NV
father devoted one minute a dav tn
us boys that did more at that age IN

sweet unworldly little person and we
adored her and reverenced her teach
ings. However, she never could think
of us as anything but her little bows.

worldly we acquired the usual boyish
sense of exalted Importance and
might have been led to secretly pat

old-fashioned, except for father.

there was much man in us, / guess.

TO TELL CONDITION OF MOON
Rule Is Simple, the Chief Idea to
Keep in Mind Being the Con-
trariness of the Planet.

Few people can tell at glance
whether the moon is waxing or wan
ing. Here is a whimsical rule to re-
member by. 1t is very simple to
those who know Latin and is not diff
ficult for those who do not. The first
thing is to notice whether the moon
is like ID or a C--that is, whether
the full semi-circular curve is on the
right or the left. If the moon shows
a that naturally stands for dis
credit, ut wanes"
But then comes in the great prin-
ciple Luna semper fallasc (the moon
is always deceitfuD, and one has to
understand the opposite of what the
moon says, so that a moon which
shows a d is waxing moon, while a
waning moon is like a G.
Those who have no Latin will no
doubt look to see whether the moon
says it is decreasing, in which case
they will understand that it is wax
ing, while a waning moon will deny
that it is decreasing.

One may not be ignorant, perhaps,
that French, old French, remains as
the language used in certain royal
proclamations in England.
So when "the kings assent" is given
before the throne in "the painted
chamber" the clerk cries in the Ian
guage of our fathers, lie roy lie veult"
("The king so pleases"). If the bill
that he is asked to approve is money
bill the clerk adds after a profound
obeisance: "The king thanks his good
subjects, accepts their benevolence
and is pleased" The proclamation on
ascending the throne is preceded by
the traditional call of the French her.

Alas, that time has disfigured this
old word of our country, and today
