How He Got His Name.

Apropos of queer names, DR.. Henry
Cooper writes the New York Sun as
follows: Visiting in Canada some
years ago on farm near Lake Simcoe,
was struck by the popularity of the
name of one of the sons in the family l
was visiting. 1t was Happen this
and Happen that until l was be-
wildered. I said to him when we were
alone: Forgive me for being curious,
but i can make nothing of your
name. Will you tell me what it is?'
He flashed up in a moment: You
Yankees are too darned inquisitive; If
you want to know about my name ask
ma When the opportunity occurred,
very respectfully sought information
from his ma. 'Drat that boy she said,
he sends everybody to me. His name is
Happen-to-be, and that was what he
were christened. When he was born
happened to be at q camp meeting, and
didn't want ever to forget it. Now,

A jug and Cane Which Once Belo nged to
the Avon Bard.
So lamentably few and far between
are the authentic relics of Shakespeare,
says a London journal, that considera-
BILE interest will be aroused in the
minds of all English speaking people
by the recent sale at Christie's of two
apparently genuine mementos of the
poets of all time. One is described as
"Shakespeare's Jug" 1t is of cream
colored earthenware, nine inches high
and sixteen inches round the largest
part, and is somewhat in the shape of
a modern coffee pot. 1t is divided
longitudinally into eight compart-
ments, each horizontally subdivided;
and within these subdivisions the prin-
cipal deities of the heather mythology
are represented in rather bold relief.
1t is stated that at the beginning of
the present century a silver top and
edging were added, with a small medal
lion of the poet, inscribed civilian
Shakespeare at the age of forty" Ac-
companying the jug is Malacca cane
in beautiful preservation, four feet
seven and half inches in length.
These two articles, it is declared, were
bequeathed by the poet to his sister
Joan, who married Mr.. Hart; and tho
relics remain ed in possession of the
family until the first years of the nine
teenth cen tury. No doubt an accurate
ly verified pedigree exists of tho,
changes of hands, if any, which these
objects have under gone since they have
passed out of the keeping of the Hart
family or their descendants. The bid
ding for the two articles started at the
small sum of five guineas, and the bids
gradually advan ced to one hundred
and ffty-five guin cas-, at which GER
tainly not inflated price tho jug aRd
the Malacca cane were knocked down.
Assuming the tru ustworthiness of the
pedigree, the production of which
would be absolutely indispensable, it
would be difficult to maintain that the
jug and the stick did not belong to the
Swan of Avon; and there is, besides, a
tolerably strong body of extraneous
evidence which might be quoted to
prove that the jug, at all events, is
authentic.
