who landed ut Jemonjol, now Malhou,

he discovered other islands of the
group, which he called the st. Lazarus
Islands. He was killed by the natives
of the island of Mactan on April %
Of the same year. Both the Spanish
and the Portuguese claimed tho
islands, the former calling them the
Isles de Poniente. and the latter be-
slowing the name of Islas dc Orfente
upon their discovery. Spain eventually
made good her claim and held the
islands until they were sold to the

Offended the Herring.

In the fifteenth and sixteenth cen.
turtles Helgoland was center of the
North sea herring fisheries. Then the
herring veered back to Scotland's
coast and the islanders handed down
tale of the implety by which they
forfeited the boon. Yearly they would
form in procession to march about the
island to invoke the coming Of the
fish. One spring, when they had gone
but half the route, the herring were
sighted. They abandoned the rite and
made for the boats. The herring new
er came again.--National Geographic

Regular daily relaxation and partic-
ularly relaxation through enthusiastic
hobby riding has the advantage of pro-
noting emotional control, an indis-
pensable factor in the winning of sue
cess. To work hard, to play ardently,
to live decent, hygienic life in gener-
al, sums up pretty comprehensively
the secret of business success. Fol-
lowing this plan, men of only average
ability can and do advance by rapid
stages, while without its aid more bril-
liant men falter and fail.
