Last spring the committee, the instrument of the cammon council, entered upon the o-raising plan in order to insure for the pcople of New Britain an adequate supply of this food stuff, then secarce, at reasonable price The history of the enterprise is too well knawn to review. Suflice it to relate that to date the commitee has sold only approximately 1,000 bushels of potatoes. The stor secured for certain parts of the ply is not the best for winter stor and although this was unders when the potatoes were harvested, the committee felt that before the real severe weather came that portion of the potatoes would have been sold. But unexpected severe weather, coupled with the storm of adverse criticism aimd at the committes from ecrtain quarters, is said to have stopped the sale with the result that the commit- tee now finds itself with some 6,000 bushels on hand that must be disposed of or the committee, as during the re- cent freeze, will lose more potatoe In one storage place where it was thought that the potataes were well protectcd and where the thermometer was kept around 40 degrees the steam heating plant broke down few days ago and a quantity of potatoes were frozen.

This is an important piece of civie leg- islation, tends to protect citizens and serves to draw a definite line of de- markation separating those of foreign birth and foreign loyvalty who come here simply to make money. The local city fathers might do well to at least consider some such similar action. The 01 Hen, (Charlotte Observer) All the country seems to have a grudge against the old hen just now. Houscholders are abusing her because she has quit laying and has brought about a condition of a 40-cents-a-do en wholesale egg market, and dealers do not want to buy her because pub- lic appetite is running to younger and tenderer meat. The fact is that this is what the farmers call the moulting season for the old hen, and she s tak- ing her annual rest, regardiess of the effect of the price on egss. And the 0ld hen is going to suffer the conse- quences. In cases where the home merchants will not buy her she is chipped to other markets, and the whole country is bein depleted of its supply of hens. This condition fore- casts a continued shortage in the egg market, and the day may be near at hand when the public will be #lad to got cgzs at 50 cents a dozen. This is a situation which cannot be charged to the camp, because it prevails in all parts of the country and is a practical illustration of the workings of the fa- vorite law of supply and demand.

WHAT'S IN A N ME? Significant Appelations. Applied to en and Women From Time Immemorial. (By From various published records of births, ete., T piled the subjoined list which classified as common English words, significant of something connected with human life. Names of this class may be found on James Shepard.) marriages, have com- of names, may be each record in many of our old New Eng- land towns. Common Eng words with slight changes in spelling are often used as Christian names, as for example, divine is changed to Devine; felicity to Filicity, and true man to Truman. But I have omitted from my list all names that consist of mis- spelled words. Rber Merriman of Southington, Conn., in 1776, used the word “doctor” as a Christian name for one of his children, because that child was his seventh son. I however, omitted this and all other trade or occupation names, because they are so numerous, and further be- cause most of them were originally surnames. The Rev. John Devotion preached the election sermon at Hart- ford on May 8, 1777. Devotion is a very appropriate word for a minister's name, but I have omitted it from my list, becaase I have found no instance of its use as a Christian name. My list could no doubt have been made larger by further research, but I believe that my research has been extensive enough to find nearly, or all of the common names in this class. About half of the names here given | Lovewell, Hymen, may be said to be of rare occurrence, one-sixth of them frequent, and one- | Thankfull, Pri of them common that they may be readily found. As to of these names. I cannot determine whether they are masculine or femin- ine. Many of them might properly be applied to either. In fact, I have found that Christian, Comfort, BEx- perience, Hope and Obedience, have each been used for both male and male. As a general rule, which signify the finer attributes applied to the gentler sex. cases, two similar words, of the same general idea, are used as names, the one heing the feminine of the other, as for example in old war names Victory is the feminine of Victor. Names come to all without giving us a choice as to what our names shall be. Surnames were originally applied to adults. When some circumsiance, condition, trait of character, or the like, gave rise to an appropriate ap- pelation by which individuals became known, and finally these names passed from sire to offspring. Christian names were also originally siven to signify some religious sentiment, or some circumstance or condition. When a Godly name is bestowed upon an infant, it may prove to be a mis- fit, yet may still be said to signify what the fond parents had hoped that their child would become. Chris- tian names are now so numerous that the naming of a child is a mere mat- ter of selection. Sometimes they are bestowed for a friend or kinsman, not because the parents liked the name, but because they liked the person who had borne it. Originality is some- times shown in naming children, and the only conceivable reason for giving some of the names in the followini list is a desire on the part of the parents to make use of an odd name. The subject of names is well treated in Proverbial Philosophy, from which I give a few excerpts: third 50 “There be names of high descent, and thereby storied honors; Names of fair renown, and characters of merit; But to lend the lowborn noble names therein evil.” shall dignified ve find the trader's babe with sounding titles, “Yet have, | And littl e hath the father guessed the | harm he did his child.” “Art the »u named foolishly show that} thou art wiser than the fathers, 4 Live to shame their vanity or sin by} duti Hasten i the | Ana | that thy thos: He died | left And whe See that My 1 | Provid | God, Fa | Hate-evi Abstinen: | Grace, cepted, | fort, | Trial, tion, cious, 1} Wrestlin Steadfas | Justice, | Submit, Confiden Reliance, Anger, F | Clement, Willing, crease, F some | Sharper, Learned, | Manly, | Liberty, Mark, Resolved, Concurrence, liverance, fe- | Sterling, names | are | In some | expressive | Textil The Konfektionar says: “The employment of paper yarn | all directions has made enormous pro-¥ There are simple one-colored gress paper fal way as jute. es m used paper pil | has already to win more than these, name is Renewed, Mercy, Desire, Tribulation, Lament, Urbane, Tempest, | Trueworthy, Temperance, Hopestill, in prisoners’ ful devotion to thy sphere. the goal of fame between posts of duty, % a blessing from man may love the world thy nameM sons may tell their sons and. e may teach their children, in goodness, as he lived; and us his good name. . there is a role rein thy name is written; ** , in the Book of Dome, thy ed in light.” ist of significant Christian names is as follow: ence, Christian, Saint, Feaz ith, Hope, Charity, Fearnot, 1, Love God, Lent, Discipline, ce, Kaster, Belief, Repent, Repentance, Grace, Fred¥ Ransom, Pardon, Acs Redeemed, Zion, Bliss, Com- Delight, Joy, Rejoice, Lamenta~ Pleasant, Cordial, Gra= e, Bogus, Graceless, Silencs, Bilious, Bxerci Able Victor, Victory, Standfast, Virtue, Noble, Trueheart, Truth Merrit, Upright( Honor, Discretion, Reason, Obedience, Mindwell, ' Prudence, Patience, Hopeful, Wait, Waitstill, ~Constant, ce, Content, Earnest, .
