It is said that His Satanic Majesty once conducted a school of magic at Toledo. At the end of the term the graduating class was, it appears, made to run through a long subter- ranean hall, the President of the in- stitution being cntitled to the hind- most if he could catch him. “A feather in one's cap,” is de- rived from Scotland. Among the woodcraft enthusiasts it was the cus- tom for the individual first to kill a woodcock to pluck out a feather and piace it in his cap. Oliver Cromwell conferred dignity upon this expres- sion when, on his refusal of the Eng- lish Crown, he observed: “Royalty is but a feather in a man's cap; let children enjoy their rattle.” A thoroughbred game cock shows only red and black feathers, and a SO S Y A R Lo N o P S S S T A el e A Sl o Sl e e Y e e st S s S S B M S S B e e ing to surprise the Lacedemonians, is said to have caused 1,600 cavalry | to advance in front, kicking up il‘ great dust that the wind blew into the faces of the enemy, thus blind- irg them to a flank movement he was | exccuting with a view to taking the coveted heights in their rear. +Barking up the wrong tree”’ may be referred to the mistake sometimes mazde by hunting dogs when game flies from tree to tree. “Dead man's shoes” is undoubtedly to be traced to an old Hebrew custom. On the transfer of an inheritance the successor received a shoe belonging to the deceased owner. For many years in front of the pul- pit in Scottish churches persons un- der censure sat during the service. Afterward the)" stood to reccive pub- lic rebuke. From this practice we de- rive the “‘stool of repentance.” “To eat humble pie” is to be as- cribed to the fact that in feudzal days the umbles, inferior parts of deer, were baked in pies for the poor re- tainers, ¥ Sar Vs Batuw, crossbreed is known by a white fea- “Whole hog or none” refers to the C.
