Notices to Correspondents.
M. A. H. "_A Skeleton in every House._" _This saying doubtless had its
origin in an Italian Story. See our Second Vol.,_ p. 231.
L. J., _who inquires about the name_ Rotten Row, _is referred to our Second
Vol._, p. 235.
J. N. CHADWICK. "_A Rowland for an Oliver_" _is explained in our Second
Vol._, p. 132; _and "As Lazy as Ludlam's Dog," which is a kindred proverb,
to his "Lazy as Hall's Dog," in_ Vol. i., p. 475.; Vol. ii., p. 42.
M. R. _The Royal Arms from William the Conqueror (?) to the time of Henry
II. were two lions passant gardant; but Henry II., on his marriage with
Eleanor, added her arms, a lion passant gardant, to his own; making the
three lions, which have continued to the present day to be the insignia of
England. See Parker's_ Glossary of Heraldry.
CHARLES H. MARKHAM. _The figures on the chemist's bottles are the signs
denoting the seven planets, which the alchemist formerly employed in common
with the astrologer. See a curious article entitled_ Astrology and Alchemy
_in the_ Quarterly Review, Vol. xxi. pp. 180. _et seq._
VARRO _is right in his conjecture; and thanked for his kindness and good
wishes. Will he not unmask?_
