What "Maru" Means.

The word "Maru," attached to the
name of every Japanese merchant ship
and commonly accepted as meaning
ship" has no especial meaning, &C.
cording to Captain Takeshima of the
japanese steamship Hudson Maru. re-
Gently captured and released by Ger
man raider in the South Atlantic, Cap
tain Takeshima said that the word Is
the survival of japanese custom
centuries old. He explained the or
igin as follows: There are two opin-
ions as to how the custom originated.
One of the stories is that in ancient
times the japanese attached 'maru'
to the name af anything highly priced.
1t was first applied to a ships name
about 1000 years ago, when the EN-
press lingo sent an expedition to
Korea. She added the word to the
name of the ship that transported the
troops to Korea. Ever since then
'Maru' has been part of the name of
every steamship or sailing vessel. 1t
is never used with the name of war
ship."-Fishing Gazette.

multitude of big bills run up for the

allies for American loans to finance
purchases of war materials in this
