Variations—Warnett, Wareing, War- ing, Warison, Wasson, Fltzwarin, Fitzwarren, Warner. Glacial Origin—Norman-French. Source-eA given name; also an occu- pation. . Here is a group of family names, all of which come from either of two sources; but from which it is impos- sible to state in the case of Warren, except where the individual is fortun- ate enough to be able to trace back the genealogy of his particular family I the modern family name is derived, to its origin. did not spell it that way. The nearest Most of thefamily names in this • we can come to the old spelling in us - group are the outgrowths of a given name which was quite widespread in medieval England, having been intro- duced by the Normans, but which has become obsolete to -day as a given name. There are, of course, to be found many men who bear Warren as. their first names, but in virtually every case this is the result of the purely modern custom of using a fami- ly name as a given name. The old name, in its Norman form, was originally "Guerin" or "Guerin," but under the Saxon influence it rap- idly become softened into"Warin," in which form it fairly crowds the old records. Warnett comes from "Ware not's-son;'•' the "ot" being a miminutive ending. Wareing, Waring, Warison and Wasson all come from "Warin's- son,"the "son" being dropped, for the most part, in the course of time. The "Fitz" variations are explained in the meaning of "fltz" as "son of." Warren, however, often comes from the same source as Warner, which is the medieval word "Warrener," "War- ener" or "Warner," from "Waen," a game preserve. The warrener was the officer who had charge of these for- est wilds and naturally came to be known as "Jacke le Warner," "Rich- ard de Waren," etc. Sons often fol- ors, and so such names in many cases lost their original meaning descriptive of occupation and became simply fami- ly "tags."

On Mark's return from town, hie team made fast, 'Tho two old friends would ghat of days no more, And tell old fes' , rehearse the fra- grant lore Of youth, recall the years with memo- ries massed. • O'LEARY. Variations—Leary. Racial Origin—Irish. Source—A given name. O'Leary is a good old royal name. Even Shakespeare recognized it as such when lie wrote his "King Lear." But the ancient Irish kings who bore this name, and from one of whom ing the English alphabet is "Laeg- haire." The Irish pronunciation varies of course, in the different sections of Ireland, and there have also been changes in pronunciation due to the lapse of time, but you can make a pretty good attempt if you say it "lay - airy," without emphasizing the"airy" too sharply; and if you can inject a faint "h" or guttural sound between the two sections, so much the better. The most famous Laeghaire of Irish history was the Ard-Righ, or High - King, who held his court at Tara, in Meath (which was a sort of "federal" province, bearing the same relation to all Ireland that the District of Co- lumbia does to the United States), and there received St. Patrick, about 432 A.D. At that first meeting the saint converted Laeghaire's daughters and half his court from paganism in open debate, and also won the king's friend- ship and help in the campaign which spread Christianity over the land like wildfire. But though he aided Chris- tianity, Leghaire himself never pro- fessed faith, and died a pagan. Of course, the orthodox form of the family name is O'Leary, or Hui Lae- ghaire, the "0' " being a contraction of "Hy" of "Hui," meaning "descend- ant of.' But many families have in lowed the same calling as their fath- modern times dropped this prefix.. The Silence of the Snow. ,.

The days are change- able --one bright, the next one cbld and stormy, that the mother is afraid to take the children out for the fresh air and exercise they need so much. In consequence they are often cooped up in overheated, badly ventilated rooms and are soon seized with colds or grippe. What is needed to keep the little ones well is Baby's Own Tab. lets. They will regulate the stomach and bowels and drive out colds, and by their use the baby will be able to 'get over the winter season in perfect safety. The new sales tax will not in- crease the price of Baby's Own. Tab- lets, as the company pays' the tax.

Marvellous artificial blooms that re- semble Nature's finest specimens in every respect, except scent, are now being made by expert glass-blowers. Every part of a flower or plant is faithfully reproduced, from the long, delicate stems and colored petals to the almost invisible pollen. The first thing which the maker of these wonderful blooms does is to blow the petals from glass as thin and fragile as tissue paper. The glass petals are then shaped and colored ex- actly like the natural ones. Some of the rarer plants cannot be is a deaf man. It is effective when easily reproduced, and often several deafness is caused by catarrh or by perforated or wholly destroyed natural drums. A request for information to A. 0.

Size of a City. Just how big a city can grow has Buy An land. The Canadian Government invites people who are in search of a summer home to buy an island in Georgian Bay. There are some thirty thousand islands along the shores, of that part of Lake Huron, and the islands vary in size from tiny eyots to islands many acres in extent. They are rocky and bear no great amount of vegetation, but many are ideal for summer camps. The price of an unoccupied island is twenty-five dollars plus ten dollars au acre.
