WHAT's INA NAME PIN an eastern
town there is woman who is exceed-
ingly deaf, aud her afiiction has caused
an extremely unpleasant mistage, of
which her infant child is tho victim.
She took the babe to church the other
day to have him baptized. While she
waited in the vestibule, she thought she
would keep him quiet by feeding him
from q bottle Of milk While the child
was still taking his nourishment, the
mother was summoned to the church by
the announcement that the minister was
ready. In her agitation she drew the
bottle from the child's mouth hurriedly,
when the gum nozzle came off and a
part Of the milk was spilled on the
child new clothes When the clergy
took tho child in his arms he looked
down upon it and asked the mother what
name SHOULD be given it. She, with
hel mind troubled with the accident,
Thought he was asking how the clothes
became soilcd, SO oshe answered:
'sNozzle came of"
Rather surprised, he asked aga;a !fsss
the name, and she, thinking he did not
understand her, bawled out:
ssNozzle came off I say"
Whereupon the astonished divine
poured water on the child's head say
ing:
aNozzle-came.off Ferguson, baptize
thee," etc, etc.
What this woman wants to know is,
whether the legislature, or something,
can't have that child's name changed to
Henry, or Lucullus, or William, or
some other euphouious appellation.
