Frank. Maurice signifies the son of
the Moor; and Frederic in Gothic has
the same meaning as Solomon in He
brew: Rich in peace.
Among the names of women, Marie
(AIiriam) signifies full of grace; Jeanne,
Anna, Jeannine Gall variations OF the
same name), mean God faVor1te- NO
ME, also from the Hebrew, signifies rich
in graces.
Sophie is the Greek name for wisdom
Marguerite means the precious pearl
Lucie, from the Latin. signifies the
light. Therese, she who knows how TO
tame wild beasts.
Alice takes her name from charm
ing flower which grows on the heights
OF the Alps, the edelweiss, which itself
means noble whitenesS."
There are many pretty Parisians who
are called Alice, and who deserve to
have a flower for their godmother.
Fashion governs race, just as it gov
ems everything else.
Formerly, under her monarchy,
name was transmitted from father to
son; and it was rare, indeed, that an ex-
ception was made from the time-hal-
lowed custom. Certain families had
two favorite names-such as Louis and
Charles, for the house of France. The
Orleans heirs were all called Philippe;
and the heirs of Montmorency Matthew.
The counts of Toulouse called them
selves Raymond: the counts of Folk.
CASTOR. The heirs of Noailles were
often named Heylon. The RohanS were
christened Louis; the heirs of La Tour
dAubergne, Henri; of Albert de Luy-
mes, Honore; the RichelieuS were called
Armand, from the time of the great
cardinal.
Under the republic there VS. a re-
vival of Greek and Roman ames.
Names of flowers, goddesses a plar is
were also much in vogue among the
women.
We have nearly all of us met some of
the respectable ladies, born at the COM
mencement of the century, who bore,
not without sigh, names which their
white hair seemed to mock-Flore, Egle,
Rebe, Euphrosyne. Aurore, Cypria, Ar
temise and even Terpsichore.
At late day romantic names had an
in mense success. Ladies were called
Yseult, Ysabeau, Isau-re, Ginevra, NAL
vina, IneZ, Yolande, Bathilde, Hedw1ge,
etc.
1t was the age when the French mind
after having plunged into Scottish
mists with McPherson's "Ossian," rode
along strange and bro Jad highways
upon the wildmaned steed of romantic
ISM.
p And the romance writers were often
SCdIdInefse
We owe the name of Indiana to
George Sand: Colombia, TO Prosper Mer-
imee: Cossette. to Victor Hugo: Joce-
Ign, to Lamartine: Jeannine, to the
younger Dumas: and the story of the
same name is the most charming of all
his masterpieces
We also owe Lyonette to him.
Nevertheless. u think he should pay
the Duchess de Persigny for the copy
right, inasmuch as she christened her
eldest daughter by that pretty name 20
years ago.
Fashion, today, favors peasant names.

WHAT'S IN A NAME?
Some People Seem to Think There Is
a Great Deal.

Some People Seem to Think There Is
a Great Deal.
One of my friends. who is a great
scholar. desires to make no profit by
| his researches. and has taught me the
Specification of nearly all French bap-
tlSnaal names, says a New York au-
thor. L think this will be interesting.
| for it is far more serious labor to dis
cover the origin of names than it ap-
| pears to be; it requires a profound
knowledge of the ancient tongues.
Among baptismal names there are
some derived from the Semitic tongues;
others from the Greek, Latin, Sclavic.
and Scandinavian, and-the most mod
ern-from the Gothic tongue.
The most glorious names are certain
ly those of the archangels and angels;
Michael, Raphael. Gabriel, who were
honored in Phoenicia as minor gods
carnations of the supreme divinity
Michael is the supreme force, the
strength of God; Raphael, strength and
virtue: Gabriel, thr creative force.
1t is therefore an error to bestcw the
name Gabrielle upon a woman. 1t is
a name essentially masculine in its
origin. The proudest of terrestrial
names is George. from the Greek Geor-
gias, dominator Of the earth; he who
rules the world
After Georges among the Latin races
rank the following names: Victor con-
queror; Leon, lion;l Macmillan, the
greatest; Theophile, the friend of God;
Theodore, the gift of God: Theohald.
from the Scandinavian, signifies at
once God and love-
Andre, from the Greek, signifies
man; and Charles (KarD from the old
Gothic is the youth, the boy.
Jacques, of Hebrew origin, is deriv-
ed from Yacoub Jacob and signifies
the seducer. he who takes the place of
another. Be on your guard against
Jacques.
Alexander is an old Greek game, of
which the Specification is unknown.
Philip is a sportsman. His name sig
nifies a lover of horses
Henry is wealthy landowner. Helm
rich, a Gothic name, means Rich in
sacred woods.
Among Gothic names we must rank:
Albert. noble race; Raymond pure of
mouth; Edmond. noble mouth; Edward,
noble guard; William, he who wishes
for a helmet; Bernard. heart of bear;
Louis, Klodewig, an illustrious name,
which so many of our kings have borne.

BABY WITH WINGS.
Mother Had Battle With a Hawk
Some Months Before.

Barker On. " Cor. Press: Every baby
is thought to be an angle, but it is sell
dom that one is born with wings. An ex-
ception to the general rule has been made
in the case of a boy baby born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Fem in this township The
child is now three weeks old, and differs
only from the ordinary baby in having
two peculiar protuberances on its Shout
der blades These are V-shaped and COW
cred with a fine webbing. They appear
like the formation of a pair of wings,
and physicians who have been consulted
decline TO undertake their amputation,
fearing that they are connected with the
spine.
Last fall Mrs. Fem had a battle with
a ferocious hawk that was trying to steal
a chicken. The bird beat her about the
face and head with its wings, but was
with difficulty driven off. This, it is
thought, may have been the cause OF the
strange growth.
The child is WELL and does not seem
Inconvenience by its wings.

ANOTHER RATHER.
Thirty Thousand Bullets a Minute
Shot BY a New Method.

0AOI by d NEW H1SIQOQ.
London Chronicle; A .Tyneside engi-
neer. James Judge, managing partner
of the Walker Engineering and Galvan-
iZing company, has patented a gun
which he believes, when perfected, will
discharge the enormous number of &c.
600 bullets a minute. Mr.. Judge describe
ed his weapon to our Newcastle repre-
sentative, and there seems to be no
theoretical objection to his design.
The gun discharges it's missiles by
centrifugal force, being, in fact a Won
derful development OF the ancient sling
He has a disk working within case at
$4,000 revolutions a minute-a speed
which has already been obtained in
practice. From the circumference of
the disk project two hands. The bullets
are poured into the case from a hopper,
and as they fall are caught by the
hands, which, in coming round, rain
them out in a continuous stream
through an orifice. They are guided
into a sleeve. which may be elevated
or depressed. and sighted like the muz-
Zle of a rifle.
A great velocity may be obtained by
the use OF hand power, but the invent
ors idea is to use his gun upon an ar
mored motor-car. which should also
