Tho fitet that men have a devilish na- ture is all the pkoof that is needed to show that there is a devil.

Among these improvements it is not unfair to include tbe "Myrtle Navy" tobacco The great ma:tority of men smoke tobacco ; have done so or centuries past and will continue to do ,so. It is important, therefore, that they should smoke the best quality of the article. That is what they are supplied with in the "Myrtle Navy." Al! smokers who have used it know that its flavor cannot be sur- passed, that its quality is always uniform, and that the only care they have to exer cist iit its purchase is to see that the trade mark T. & B. is stamped on the plug. IN AN ALLIGATOR'S JAWS. lard Burnham, a white boy, 15 old, has had a very narrow escape death in the jaws of an alligator. rd and half a dozeu other boys bathing iti Crescent Lake. near ( ,ent City. He swain out into deep r one hundred feet from the shore Suddenly he felt something mov- bout in the water beneath him. et his legs down perpendicularly, was horrified to feel his feet touch scaly back of an alligator. He was rouaehly frightened, but struck out dly for the boom of logs near the mill of Damm & Torrey. -he-alligator came -up-neauerthe surs e and made for the luny as he swam ng rapidly. Opening his huge jaws, was about to close them upon the k of the boy's body, when Richard ade a dive apd swam fifteen or twen- feet under water in the direction of e logs. As the boy came to the surface the al - gator got his bearings again and gave ase. Richard was nearly winded nd the reptile 'gained on him. When he boy was within three feet of the ogs the reptile closed his big, ugly aws on the boy's thigh. He was pill- ed under, and his companions thought he was gone. They yelled for help. /But Dick rose to the surface again in about half a minute. the alligator hay - :hog evidently let go of him in order to I get a fresh hold and a better one. • Dick reached for a log and caughl it with both hands, the alligator rising up from beneath him as he did so. The boy was weakened from his exer- tions and by .fright, but , held to the log. Before he could get his feet out of the water the reptile seized one of Dicks legs in his jaws and began to pull. Dick pulled to. It was a ques- tion Which would pull harder and win. The animal kept loosening his hold and then grabbing hold of his leg again, and just as the boy was about to fall back again into the water. screaming with pain aind half dead, some men from the mill appeared bn the scene and reseued him by beating the animal off with clubs. Richard is in a very critical condi- tion. he had over twenty wounds on his legs, one of them very deep. Two hours afterward the alligator was killed not far from the scene of the struggle. it measured 11 feet 3 inches in length. - - -- -- . - 1 The parish of St. Cuthbert.

ETYMOLOGY MADE INTERESTING. The Origin and Curious 'Evolution oll Some Englielt surnames. A recent magazine article by Sir Herbert Maxwell presents in a very readable form the derivation of a numb& of conunon names. It will be news, for example, to many of our readers that Snooks was once kno*n as Sevenoakes. Some persons are not aware that Elizabeth is to be accounted an uncouth form of Isabel, which was form- ed from Isabeau on a false supposition that Isabeau was masculine. Eliza, it is stated, is not a shortened fortn of Elizabeth, but is the equivalent of Alice, Marion, we know, is in line with Marie, Mary and Maria. Patro- nymics have been much multiplied through pet names The Saxons formed pet names by adding to the original name --often ale lireviated -kin and cock, and the Normans introduced et and oten and on. From William we have the pet names Wilkiu, Willett. Willey, Willeatot, Willem Bill and (uill iLatin.) From these we get ill order Williams, Mai:William, Williamson, Wills,•Wilon, Wilcox, Wil- kins, Wilkison yVilkiuson, Willet, Willet- son, Wilmot, Willing, Bilson, Gill, CI ilson, ( ; ilkins, Gilkison, l;illon and il- lott. Robert- -through Robin, Dobb, Hob. Rol) and Hobkin-gives us Roberts, Robert- son, Robins, Robinson, Robison, Prohyn, Dobbs. Dobson, Hobbs, Hobson, Roll's, Robson, Replant', and Hopkinson. .Philip gives us Phipps, Pitilpot and Philpots. Richard has been distorted by affection into the pet names Rich, Richie, Dick, Diecoll, Hitchin and Hitchcock. From these in turn we have Richards, Richardson, Rick- ards, Pritchard, Rixon, Ritchie, Richison, Dick, Dixie, Dixon, Dickens, Dickenson, Hitchins, Hitchison, Hitchcock, and Hitchcox. David has given us Davidson, Dodson, Dodds, Davy, Davison, Daw, Daw- son, Dawkins, and O'Dowd. •_We_ the-derNiaiine 'Hal Hallett Harry, Harriet and Hawkins. From John we get Jack and Jenkins; from Simeon, Simkins. Thuckeray's an- cestor was a thatcher. Malthus got his. name from malthouse, and the common family name of Bacchus would be more cor- rectly spelt bakehouse. Macpherson means parson's son. Vickers was the vicar's sou. Wallaee means a Welshman, and Bruce is a Norman name. Sinclair, Montgomery, Hay and Vance are, like Bruce, names ' derived from lands in Normandy. Many English surnames end in ford, ham (house), lea ton (farm) and by (dwelling), from the old practice of naming persons after their native place. Aylesford, Grimston, Haber - sham and Ormsby are exatnples. Winslow is from words that mean Wine's Hill. rom Lee we get Lee, Leigh and Lee', The Welsh Ap, son, with Robert, Iaileeconte Probert. Ap Rhys has become Price. Ap Owen has become Bowen and Ap Hugh has become Pugh. A prosperous Dublin snuff dealer named Halfpenny has had his appellation shortened, it is narrat- ed, to Halpen, and then enlarged to an im- posing McAlpin. It is interesting in thus connection to know that Finn and Findlay are Celtic surnames equivalent to our White. Duff, Maeduff and Dow are for Black. Glass is for Gray. Roy, Corkran and Cochrane all mean red. Our Mr. Brown is in Celtic Mr. Dunn or Mr. Don- I nan. Moore and Moran anawer to our Bigg. On the other hand Beggs is good Celtic for Little or Sntall. Oliphant (ele- phant)is a name derived from a shop sign. 1 The reader will perceive that many of our Christian names and surnames have had curious histories. -Baltimore Sun. Why We Must Sleep. After all, science cam scarcely' explain the why of anything. It merely poiuts out the order in which natural processes occur. ' Preyer holds that sleep is caused by the products of decomposition, lactic acid and creatin taking up the oxygen of the blood The functions of the grey matter of the cor. tex cannot be exercised without a plenteous supply of arterial blood any more than the zinc and copper of a voltaic pile will evolve electricity without the sulphuric acid. Thus the blood conveys a stimulus or im- partsa capacity to the nerve tissue e dur- ing waking,. wai:e during sleep it has a separate and dis,inct funetion --that of re- pairing waste. Apparently these two pro- cesses cannot ;;-it on in the brain at once, or at least only to a degree too limited to pre- vent a speedy exhaustion of the vital powere if sleep be withheld. There is a striking disparity in the time required for sleep by different persons. Some men, like the Em. peror Akbar, St. Francis Xav:er and Gen. Eliot, the defender of Gibraltar, could do with as little as four hours' sleep, while other hien need 10 hours or even half the 24. But all must sleep. A cruel form of capital punishment in China consists in artificially keeping the culprit awake till he dies from exhaustion. -British Medical Journal. Empty Flown 'Peeves. There are twenty well built towns in Kansas without a single inhabitant to waken the echoes of their deserted streets. Sara- toga has a $30,000 opera house, a large brick hotel, a $20,000 schoolhouse and a number of fine business houses, yet there is nobody even to claim a place to sleep. At Pat -go a $20,000 schoolhouse stands on the side of the hill, a monument to the bond voting craze. A herder and his fam- ily constitute the sole population of what was once an incorporated city. This is a sad commentary on unhealthy booms. Those Kansas towns, like Wichita, adver- tised themselves as phenomenal boom cities. For a while "everything was lot ely and the goose hung high," but at last dry rot took hold on t e boom towns and killed them. - Chicago Herald. , A 01.011C 044 FOR TK NEORO,, ' My. 11,11, A ,14 e$abed, Net PAt illOtetitiee• - AO Lj to Atoggiot4414 ne*T4Per 4 y • or4bly' eacitea A, °punt, had beet oorninated the day before,and it turned out thet he did not favor some of the candidates, although of his party, Notwithetandiug I was a stranger he began talking local politics to me and was going it strong when a colored man came in.

When „A -Alias Overspread the drummer's face, a grin began to draw the corners of his mouth right and left, and he quietly began : "I think it was the funniest thing 1 ever heard in all my life- ha!ha!ha!" "Sir ! Are you a drummer ?" inquired an oldish man with reddish gray hair who rat in front of him. "Yes... "Drummer front Chicago ?" "And you want to tell us a funny story, eh ?" "I do. It's the funniest story I ever heard related and too good to keep." "Well, sir, I've a word to say to you," continued the old man. "I like fun myself. Fp to a year ago I was always on the grin. if anything tickled me I'd laugh until I fell down with weakness. I once laughed thir teen -hours Wahoet a break at a story a drummer told me. I brought on heart dis- ease from laughing, and the doctors have warned me to be very careful. The story is mighty funny, is it?" "It is, sir." "Get a roaring old climax to it ?'' yes. e "Pretty certain to convulse the audience, I suppose ?" "I'll warrant it to." "Then please excuse me and I'll go into the next ear for a few minutes. I'm certain it's a funny story. I know you'll tell it in such a way that I shall have to bust right out in spite of all I can do. If T 'test, I'm a goner. I want to hear the sb y m liby bad, but I also want to live as +. u, as I can. Just excuse me."
