Roosevelt Family Names.

II Is interesting to get what appears
to be an authoritative explanation Of
the odd names In the Roosevelt family.
They come from the mothers side.
Before her marriage she was a Miss
Carow, not Carew. The name is an
old French Huguenot one, originally
spelled Quereau, but was changed to
Cnrow by Mrs. Roosevelt's grandpa
ther, Isaac Carow, who experienced
much trouble with men In business,
who seemed able to spell Que
reau properly. The name Of Quentin,
one of the boys. belongs on the Carow
side and was also a French Huguenot
name. originally spelled Quantine. The
same explanation applies to the name
of Kermit doubtless.-Boston Herald.

stories, songs, o%rations, second sight
readings. sword dancing and jig dane

ended up with a stag quadrille, that
in comparison would have made the

a stately minuet.
Refreshments of all kinds were In
abundance and the cigars furnished

st. Patrick was. lie was born in
France about 377 A. d., and was car
ried of 10 Ireland and made a slave at
the age Of sixteen. He was kept in
servitude for seven years, but owing to
a wonderful dream escaped to France.
There he prepared himself for mission
airy work and returned to Ireland about
43l, landing on the coast of the county
of Down, and travelled over the whole
island, preaching Christianity. He
made $4,000 converts, organized 1856
churches. banished snakes and toads
from the lakes and ponds of the land,
and died at the good old age of ZIG.
Some authorities contend that March

saints birthday, while others, later,
compromise the matter by adding the
days making the date March 18th. How
accommodating and versatile the good
Irish people are.
