Not What She Wanted.
Speaking of the art of handling cus-
tomers, Lord Leverhulme told a good
story the other night. He said that a
certain grocer, after being absent
from his shop, asked his assistant
whether any customers, had been in.
The reply 'was, "Yes, one. She wanted
home apricot jam, but I told her we
hadn't any."
The grocer pointed out that the as-
sistant ought to have offered the lady
some other jam, and sb:ould always en-
deavor to sell something similar to
what was asked for If he had not the
precise article.
The next time the grocer went out
he inquired of the assistant when he
returned what had happened in his ab-
sence.
The employee answered: "Mrs.
Tompkins" bas been in and wanted a
"Big Cinnamon Bear!"
Mr. Zane Grey, the writer, has had
some interesting experiences out of
doors. In Tales of Lonely Trails he
tells this exciting and amusing story
of a bear hunt in which he took part
on a skittish horse:
When we topped a ridge the baying
of the hounds rang clear and full and
tooth -brush. I told her we had not got , fierce. My horse stood straight up.
any, but that we had blacking -brushes Then he plunged back and bolted down
and scrubbing brushes. She told me I the slope. His mouth was like iron;
she had never been so insulted in her I could neither hold nor turn him. He
was running away! No doubt he had
smelled the bear. He hurdled rocks,
leaped washes,' slid down banks,
plunged over places that made my
hair stand up stiff, and, worst of all,
he did not try to avoid brush or trees
or cactus. Manzanita he tore right
through, leaving my coat in strips,
decorating our wake. I had to hold
on, to lie • at, to dodge and twist and
all the time to watch for a place where
I could fail off safely.
But I did not get a chance to fall off.
A loud clamoring from the hounds
close behind dmove my horse frantic.
Before he had only run; now he flew!
He left me hanging in the thick bran-
ches of a juniper, from which I drop-
ped, blind and breathless and stunned.
Disengaging myself from the broken
and hanging branches, I staggered
aside, rifle in hand, trying to recover
breath and wits. Then in that nerve-
less and shaken condition I heard the
breaking of twigs and the thud of soft
steps right above me. Peering up with
my half -blinded eyes, I saw a huge red
furry animal half obscured by brush.
A shock came over me; I felt a gush
of hot blood that seemed to turn to
ice. "Big cinnamon bear!" I whis-
pered hoarsely.
Instinctively I cocked and leveled
the rifle, and, though I could not clear-
ly see the red animal bearing down
the slope, I fired. Then followed a
roaring crash, a terrible breaking on-
slaught upon the brush, and the huge
red mass flashed dawn toward me.
I worked the lever of the rifle, but I
did not work it far enough down; the
next cartridge jammed. I tried again.
In vain! The terrible crashing of
brush appeared right upon me. For an
instant that seemed an age I stood riv-
eted to the spot; my blood seemed
congealed; my heart was choking me,
and my tongue was, pasted to the roof
hen I drouued the
Ilfe."
"What a Pityl"
Lord Balfour's health is not all his
old friends would like it to be. He is
'far over seventy, and the other day
when he was expected at a little
luncheon party, we got a note at the
last moment regretting that he was
laid up in bed. It was only a few
weeks ago I saw him playing a sturdy
game of tennis,.
Lord Balfour—I may say he -really
lild not want to be made a lord–pis, now
definitely resigll,ed from public life. As
everybody .knows, he is Lord Robert
Cecil's. cousin, and it is some evidence
of heredity that his. long-time past an-
cestor was Prime Minister to Queen
Elizabeth, and he himself rose to the
same high dignity. When he passes
away the title will not die, although
he is a bachelor, forby special remain-
der when he west made a peer, the title
goes to his nephew, the son of his,
brother, Mr. Gerald Balfour.
Here is. a story which is possibly not
true, but it is very characteristic of
"A. J.'s" manner. When in New York
l.e was shown the Woolworth Building.
,The highest building in the world, sir,"
the was told. "Indeed," said Balfour,
not at all excited. It accommodates
five thousoud people." "Does it?" he
remarked with bored casualness. "Yes,
air, and it is fire -proof- throughout."
Balfour affixed his pince-nez slowly,
let his eye roam over the building and
then remarked, "What a pity!"

It is in this manner that a very
large classification of modern family
names came into being throughout the
twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth cen-
turies;
Often such a descriptive appellation
would., through common usage, develop
into a family name during the first
generation, so that in the minds of
speakers the name would designate

to his calling be lost sight of. Some_1
times it would not be until the secaicd.
or third generations that this almost
intangible change would take place.
One vital factor in the stabilization
of names, was the fact that so often
the sons followed the same occupation
as the father under the •social and in-
dustrial conditions• of feudal days:
in its earlier and descriptive form
the name of Lorrimer, or Lorimer, ap-
pears as "le Larymer," the "le" be-
ing the same as the modern French
"le," and meaning "the." Even at a
very early period, however, its, use or
omisedon appears to have been op-
tional with the speaker. It was, of
course, entirely dropped, as soon as
the name became a family name. The
"lorymer" was one who made bite
for horses.
MACLURE
Variations -McClure, Macleod, Mae.
Lead.
Racial Origins,—Norse—Scottish.
Source—A given name.
It's hard to know whether to Blass,
thia Highland Scottish name as Scot-
tish, Norwegian or. Irish, because in a
sense it is each one of them.
Bogining :as the old None,ey..given
name of "Leoid," it became -02e name
of two Highland clone as Macleod, was
taken to Ireland, where it became Ma-
clttre, and was brought back to Scot-
Iand in that form.
"Leoid" was a'.san of ()lave, a bre-
titer of Magnus, the last king of Man,
for fairly early in the Christian era the
Vikings had conquered and established
themselves along the western coast
pf Bngland and Scotland. His ,ances
try traced back. thnough six genera.
tions to Harald the Black, who was
king of the Norsemen about the time
the Normans invaded England.
There are two branches of the clan
I he founded, the Macleods, or, if you
choose to call them ea, the two clans.
One of these is known in Gaelic as
j ""Siol Tormod"' (Clan. Norman, or Nor..
Manson) and the other as "Siol Tor-
quil" (Thttrkildson), though in English
' they are referred to as the Macleods
of Harris and the Macleods of Lewis.
After the defeat at the Battle of
'Worcester, certain of the Macleods of
Harris fled to the north of Ireland,
where the tendency was• to pronounce
the final "d" in their name as au "r,"
thus giving "Macleor," or Maclure, In
this form the name returned to Gal-
loway.in the seventeenth century.
In Search of "Limits".
Some years' ago, Professor Dewar,
by boiling liquid hydrogen in a
vacuum, reached a temperature within
about 50 degrees of absolute zero. This
temperature, described as that at
which the heat energy of matter abso-
lutely disappeared, is no less than 490
degrees below zero Fahrenheit.
Man's mind is not so constituted
that he is able to comprehend space or
Infinity, and to the average person
these words, mean little, if anything.
Yet In regard to positive science we
are now reaching points which, like
that of the intense cold mentioned, are
absolutes so far as terrestrial exist-
ence is concerned.
At the same time that Professor De-
war was• experimenting with liquid
hydrogen, other men of science, such
as Meissen and Acheson, were experi-
menting with electric furnaces in
which temperatures as high as 7,000
degrees Fahrenheit were obtained.
Under such heat nickel and platinum
burn like wax, and even the best fire-
brick is consumed, Ieaving no trace
behind it. Yet science has not yet
yeached the absolute of heat, and it is
not known what that temperature
would be.
By the u,se of wave -lengths of light,
the scientist can now measure accu-
rately to the seventy -millionth part of
an inch. The mechanism, which is
very complicated, shows a startling
difference between two standards,
made in the same mould.
As for size, theoretically speaking,
there is no limit one way or the other.
But in the laboratory man has succeed-
ed in diacovering the dimensions of
the atom, which is now known to be
about one -thirty -Millionth of an inch
in diameter.
Yet even the atom is built up of
electrons. These we believe to be the
smallest particles which can or do
exist.

Why Climates Change.
"The wanton cutting of timber is
responsible for the radical change in
the climate of the United States, says
Gene. Stratton -Porter, the famous,
American authar..
"Wath the cutting of our timber has,
come a change in our climate; weeks
of drought in summer and destructive
cyclonic windstorms; winters alter-
nating from a condition: so open as. to
freeze prematurely forced fruit and
grain, and winters, spa stringently cold
that the fruit trees are killed outright.
"The even temperature and the
rains every three or four days which
we knew in childhood are things of the
past. Summer in these days means
to scorch for weeks at a stretch with
unalleviated haat; and in the same
state in which I was born, it has be-
come necessary for the sons of the
men who wasted the woods and the
waters to put in overhead sprinkling
•systems in order to grow their garden
vezetable•s, while windmills and irri-
gation are becoming common.
"In uiy child.h,aod my father planted
grain, with the same certainty of hav-
ing a full crop, that he had of alter-
nate clay and night.
"To=day the farmer• on my land has
