and they are rapidly disappearing.

was requested to step ont. She did 50,
and there in the street, before the
house, was an elegant truck with two
enormous horses. and on the truck in
an attitude of triumph, stood Samuel,
holding the rcins.
"Minc!' he said. "Minel Ia! ha!
ha! | will be around tonight and take
you to my sisters, where We will be
married. Mnen
In dclirium of Joy, Hannah made
her preparations. If the kitchen was
not run on quite as good prin-
ciples as usual, it was due entirely to
the fact that the girls mind was in a
chaotic condition. To be the wife of
man who owned such truck and such
pair of horses, was enough to upset
the mind of any well regulated cook in
ChriStendom.
That night at the humble dwelling of
Samucls sister, they were united in tie
holy bonds of matrimony. For tic
immediate present it was agreed that
Hannah should retain her place, O..
least until Samuel could make arrange
ments for an establishment ON top OF :;

him to sit on her knee, with love in hi,

his hand. He wished that it might b.
always thus, for his cup of happiness
was full.
Sammy, my dear, 'ow is bisnis?"
A cloud passed over Samucl's brow,
and the mouthful of sandwich almost
strangled him.

establishment | borrowed for effect.
But it was love that did it, and then !
said to myself she will forgive me, and
she will let me take her thousand dol
lars out of the savings bank, and | will
get truck, and we will be happy
yet"
A subducd sigh, a relaxation OF
limb, and there was hundred and
eighty pounds of girl fainting on the
floor. Samuel dashed water in her
face and she slowly revived
Samuel. we are miserable people.
You ave no truck-I ave no thousand
dollars-I 'aven't a cent?
At first he was indignant at be ng
deceived rs to her financial condition,
and then she was indignant ut his de-
cept,on in the matter of the truck.
There was some hair on the floor, and
Samuel stood for some minutes over
the kitchen sink stopping the flow OF
blood from his nose; but finally, after
passion had subsidized and the situation
was fully and fairly considered, they
made it up and renewed their VOWS oil
eternal love and constancy.
The pair are rubbing along as best
as they can. Mrs. Strawn, under her
maiden name, is still cook. and Samuel
is still working for his old employers.
But they have quit the vanities of this
life-Samuel beer, and Hannah rib
bons-and they hope to save enough to
produce at least a one-horse truck.
There is no especial moral to this,
for there is no catastrophe. 1t Is
probably better for them that they have
to shift, with nothing to begin with:
for when they have earned and saved
a fortune they will appreciate ito

"JOHN.''
4 Monosyllabic Name Which Has Been
Prolific of Derivations.

a Monosyllabic Name Which Has Been
Prolific of Derivations.
As family name it is sonnet mes
found as Il plain John, then as St.
John, and then its first changes is into
Johns, then comes Jones, johnson,
Johncock, Jonkins, Jenkens, Jennings,
Jcnkinson, jerks, Jinks and Jinkin-
son. BY additions we have Littlojohu,
Browniohn and Properiohn. No argu.
ment is needed to prove the popularity
of Jack. As n nickname it is fixed
beyond all fear of abolition, aud from
nickname it passed by easy stages to
Il reputable place among the family
names. Jack is not very common. but
Jacks is more frequent, and Jackson
no longer eXcites remark. We have
Little idea how wonderfully popular the
name Jack used to be. Everybody
was Jack till he was found to be some
one else, so that every man Jack OF
them was common term for crowd
and its integral parts for ages. Every
servant whose name or Office happened
to be unknown, went by the name of
Jack, and thus an idea of utility
was attached to the character of Jack,
which, when articles of house
hold use were one after an
other invented, came into play in Civ
ing them names also. and thus we have
boot jacks and black-jacks and smoke
jacks and jack-towels, together with
Jacks for this, that and other purpose,
until the name became so common as
to be announcement. Then came an
idea that Jack must be cunning sort
of fellow, and so the appelation gradu-
ally applied itself to the smarter of the
animal kingdom, and thus came the
jackdaw, the jack-an-apes and the jack
pike. But as familiarity is a potent
breeder of contempt, the very common
ness of the name threw it into dsrc-
pute as having something stupid about
It, and we thus gained jack-fool or jack
pudding, or II bulloon, and jackass for
\ d0lt." This is sad fall for the
name of the beloved disciple, but to
such uses will name sometimes come.
1t is curious to know that the name
John became common in the western
part of Europe only after the crusadcs,
when the pilgrims to the Holy Land
always carried as a part of their outfit
i bottle designed to hold the water
from the River Jordan brought home
Tor baptismal purposes. The great
lorcrunner of Christ came into public
notice among the pilgrims, and it was
probably more on his account than on
that of the beloved disciple that
the name assumed such place in the
popular regard.-St Louis Globe

The Postoffices at Covington,

THE QUEENS DRAWING ROOM.
Display of Eastern Costumes How the
Queen Was Arrayed.

A Display of Eastern Costumes-IIow the
Queen Was Arrayed.
The Queen was late in entering the
Throne Room last Wednesday, it being
nearly 1920 before the royal party came
in. Her Majesty only staid for thirty.
five minutes and retired as soon as she
had received the respects of the Diplo-
matte Corps and some of the entire
people, leaving the remainder of the
company to pay their courtesies to tho
Princess of Wales There was very
large company in both these sections
and very full attendance, but there
was not nearly so many presentations
as had been expected. There were
some splendid Eastern costumes, and
an Indian lady, having kissed the
Queens hand, offered Her Majesty an
Oriental salaam as she retired, to the
great amusement of the circle. This
lady wore quaint but very becoming
Asiatic dress of white, with overlress
richly embroidered with gold, and a
regular Eastern veil around the head
anu SnOulucTb. one DldIeu with ulA-
monds. Black was the prevailing
color. The Princess of Wales looked
much better in her somber toilet
which set off her magnificent diamonds
very well midlothian in the white
dress which shewore at the first draw
ing-room. The Duchess of Bucking-
ham, in white and gold, was much adj
mired. The Queen was arrayed en-
tirely in black, having discarded the
veil she had hitherto worn for one of
black tulle, and Her Majesty wore on
ly jet ornaments. Princess Beatrice
was in mauve and violet and displayed
many more diamonds than she has
ever worn before. Prince Henry of
Battenberg, in white Prussian uni
form, stood behind the royalties and,
to tell the truth, looked extremely i'll
at ease. This drawing-room was GER
