A _Lantern_ is a charge on the shield of Cowper, and the arms of the town of Hove afford an absolutely unique instance of the use of _Leg-Irons_. Three towns--Eccles, Bootle, and Ramsgate--supply cases in their arms in which a _Lighthouse_ is depicted, and this charge would appear, so far as can be ascertained, not only to be restricted to English armory, but to the three towns now named. _Locomotives_ appear in the arms of Swindon (Plate VI.) and the Great Central Railway (Fig. 555). Of a similar industrial character is the curious coat of arms granted at his express wish to the late Mr. Samson Fox of Leeds and Harrogate, which contains a representation of the _Corrugated Boiler-Flue_ which formed the basis of his fortune. [Illustration: FIG. 556.--Catherine wheel.] [Illustration: FIG. 557.--Staple.] [Illustration: FIG. 558.--Hawk's Lure.] [Illustration: FIG. 559.--Fylfot.] An instance of the use of a _Sand-Glass_ occurs in the arms of the Scottish family of Joass of Collinwort, which are thus blazoned: "Vert, a sand-glass running argent, and in chief the Holy Bible expanded proper." A Scottish corporation, too, supplies a somewhat unusual charge, that of _Scissors_: "Azure, a pair of scissors or" (Incorporation of Tailors of Aberdeen); though a Swabian family (by name Jungingen) has for its arms: "Azure, a pair of scissors open, blades upwards argent." _Barrels_ and _Casks_, which in heraldry are always known as _tuns_, naturally figure in many shields where the name lends itself to a pun, as in the arms of Bolton. _Wheels_ occur in the shields of Turner ["Argent, gutté-de-sang, a {302} wheel of eight spokes sable, on a chief wavy azure, a dolphin naiant of the first"] and Carter, and also in the arms of Gooch. The _Catherine Wheel_ (Fig. 556), however, is the most usual heraldic form. The _Staple_ (Fig. 557) and the _Hawk's Lure_ (Fig. 558) deserve mention, and I will wind up the list of examples with the _Fylfot_ (Fig. 559), which no one knows the meaning or origin of. The list of heraldic charges is very far, indeed, from being exhausted. The foregoing must, however, suffice; but those who are curious to pursue this branch of the subject further should examine the arms, both ancient and modern, of towns and trade corporations. {303} CHAPTER XX THE HERALDIC HELMET
