The Origin OF Mr.. and Mrs.

In earlier times the ordinary man
was simply William or John-that is
to say, he had only Christian name
without any kind of ''handle" before
it or surname after it, says the Phil
adelphia Record.
Some means of distinguishing one
John or William from another John
or William became necessary. Nick
names derived from a mans trade or
his dwelling place or from some per-
sonal peculiarly were tackled on to
his Christian name, and plain John
became John Smith. AS yet there
were no "misters' in the land.
Some John Smith accumulated
more wealth than the bulk of his fel-
lows-became perhaps landed pro-
prietor or an employer of hired labor
Then he began to be called in the
Norman French Of the day the "mais
ter" of this place or that, of these
workmen, or of those.
In timeth "maistre," or ''maister," p"
as it soon became, got tackled on be-
fore his name, and he became Mals
ter Smith and his wife was Maistress
Smith. Gradually the sense of pos
session was lost sight of, and the title
was conferred upon any kindly
mere possession of wealth or holding
some position of more or less i'm
portance.

Late Literary News.

Sir Charles w. Dixie, contributes
to The Cosmopolitan for February
an article on "The Naval Strength of
Nations" which gives not only q most
interesting and comprehensive &C.
count of the natives of the great pow
ers but also clear insight into world
politics. Few men possess such
knowledge as the authors, gained
from years Of experience in a diplo
matte and political career. The ar
ticle is so broad in scope and straight
forward in treatment that it will be
read with interest not alone by states
men but by every one whose thoughts
travel beyond the immediate wants Of
a single day
The Cosmopolitan IS fortunate in
it's fiction for February. Stories OF
love, adventure and humor from the
pens of famous aathors make the
s'Midwinter Fiction Number" vital'y
interesting. IS. Cohn & Son" by
Zangwill deals with the Angliciza-
ton of Jew and the inevitable trag-
edy of his love for an English girl
whose race prejudice triumphs over
her nobler feelings. In "The Valley
of the Dead. Thomas A. Janvier
pictures the struggle of dashing
young engineer between love and
duty. "Mr. MacGlowrie's Widow
is the title of a Western story in Bret
Harte's hsppiest vein and "The Fish"
is one of E. W. Kemble's best hum
orous skits.

The Wrong Number.
TSslt Lake Herald.

The telep phone girl and the bill
clerk, to whom she had promised
her heart and hand, were sitting in
front of the fireplace talking about
the happy days to come when they
would be one
From one little detail to smother
the talk finally drifted to the sub
iect of building fires in the morning.
On this point the young man was
decided. He stated it as his EN-
phatic opinion that it was the wife's
place to get mp and start the fires
and let her poor, hard-working hus
band rest.
After this declaration there was
silence for the space of about three
quarters of second. Then the tel
ephone girl thrust out the finger en-
circled by her engagement ring and
murmured sweetly but firmly:
"Ring off, please. You got con,
nected with the wrong number"

Knowing a Little Of Everything.
York Journal

In books, lectures and addresses
to young men no monition is today
more strenuously urges upon their
attention than the necessity of con-
centration. Every writer and speaker
dwells upon the Importance of know
ing some one thing thoroughly, IN
stead of knowing little of many
things-in short, of being specialists
If we would succeed in life, and no
doubt there is wisdom in the advice.
1t was wittily said of Edward Four
nier by Jules Janin, "That man
knows all: he knows only that, but
he knows it WE'LL" yet Fourn'er, with
all his erudition, remains an obscure
man of letters. The measure OF a
ma s learning today is the amount
of his voluntary ignorance; the meas
ure of his practical effectiveness, the
number of things he is content leave
uninterrupted. Broad culture and uni
versatility of knowledge, many sided.
ness, are beautiful to look upon, and
theoretically desirable; but it is the
narrow edged men, the mon of single
and intense purpose, who do the hard
work of the world and win its
victories.
All this is true, but is there not
danger now of flying from one ez
treme to another, of pushing
specialism, the division and subdi-
vision of labor, too far? Is it not
we'll to remember that there is no
profession in which a wide variety
of knowledge may not be serviceable
so far as it can be attained without
sacrifice of depth and accuracy in
ones special subject of study?
In the legal profession for example
is there any subject which may not
fall within the inquiry of court of
law? Have not theology and medi-
cine been invoked to enter the temple
of Themis2 Did we not see few
years ago the mystery Of the Trinity
brought into discussion in an English
court and the question Of
the right to a most valus,
BILE bequest determined by a critical
examination of passages in the New
Testament? Again during the argu-
ment for and against the validity Of
a marriage with deceased wife's
sister, was not the most copiors
learning brought to bear by British
barristers upon the Interpretation of
a difficult verse in Leviticus? We
once saw Rufus Choate buying in
Little & Browns book store a work
on hydraulics, a knowledge of which
he required to argue one of his cases;

The Worrying Woman.

A young girl was one day crying
bitterly on the side of the road,
drawing the attention and exciting
the sympathy of the passers by.Some
one stopped and kindly asked what
her trouble was. She then told them
that she was thinking that one day
she might get married and have
children, and, sobbing more bitterly
than before, she burst: "Oh, what if it
should be a girl?"
There are careful people who al
ways take their precaution long in
advance and are ever prepared for
the worst, but the worrying woman
invents annoyances at pleasure and
revels in gloom. She ever frets and
fidgets and surrounds everything
with the most extricating imaginary
difficulties.
When she begins packing her
trunk for a journey, she feels quite
sure that she will never be able to put
all her things in; when they are all
in, she cannot lock the trunk; when
that is done she IS afraid the transfer
man will come too late and she will
miss her belongings when she arrives
at her destination.
If her husband is five minutes late
returning home, she begins to fear
something has happened to him OF
she wonders where he may be; if he
returns earlier than usual, she rushes
up to him and hopes he has not been
seized with illness that caused him
to leave his business in a hurry.
When she gives party, for days
the house is in perfect state of com
motion. She is sure everything will
60 wrong, and she bothers the SER
wants so much that if there is a
chance they will do their worst. If she
gives dinner, she wonders if the
cook will not fall into the soup just
at the moment when her guests
arrive.
If it is garden party, she is GER
tain it will rain, which will spoil the
whole thing. When the dinner party
is going on, she is sitting on thorns,
needles and pins. Her eyes are all
over the place, and she has not ears
for the two poor men sitting each
side of her, who speak to her and
try to entertain her with stories and
anecdotes. She smiles at them in an
absent sort of way. She is trembling
every time new course is brought
round, she keeps her eyes on the
candIeshades, on each waiter. She is
going through perfect ordeal. By
the time desert comes, she begins to
wonder if the artists will be in time
to entertain the guests she has in
vited to the reception that will follow
the dinner, whether they will sing
we'll and give pleasure. She is not
even quite certain the piano is in
tune.
When her children are little pale
she is sure they are going to have
scarlet or typhoid fever.
1t seldom enters her mind that their
pallor may be due to little surfeit
of jam or pudding.
Fortunately for her she is not in

Mrs. Lease, the former Kansas Or
ator, now of New York, advanced
the following original idea the other
day, apropos of the liquor question
now being agitated there: Il would
make whiskey as free as water; l
would let the man who wants it
drink his fill. 1t would result bene-
fcially in killing off lot of saloon
frequenters, who are only a burden
to the world and to themselves, and
eliminating their progeny, who fur
nish the recruits for the great army
of crime and disease, and would
bring into practical operation the
law of the survival of the fttest."

SPIRITUAL AWAKENING AMONG THE
YOUNG MEN OF = sUiH CAROLINA.
A Great Convention OF the States Fines'
Type of Aoung Manhood.

The annual State convention OF
the Young Mems Christian Assocla
TOPS of South Carolina will convene
this year in Columbia, Feb. S-ll.
The gathering already bids fair to
be one of considerable strength. 1t
will differ IN many respects from
other conventions held. The opening
session will be held on Saturday eve
ming, and the closing session on
Tuesday night. Sunday will be a
red letter day in Columbia. Nearly
all of the pulpits of the city will be
occupied by prominent delegates and
speakers.
In the afternoon a mammoth meet
ING for men will be held in the Opera
House. A chorus of male voices Will
lead the singing. Mr.. L. A. Coulter
Of Richmond, Va, a speaker of rare
power and ability, will address the
meeting. The Columbia Association
confidently expects to see thousand
of the men of the city at the great
gospel meeting.
On Sunday evening there will be
three or four mass meetings in the
principal churches, addressed by
prominent Association men. Among
whom are Messrs. G. L. Gates, OF
Atlanta, T. S. McPheeters, of st.
Louis, and F. S. Goodman, of New
York City.
Monday and Tuesday will be de.
voted to the discussion OF problems
which affect men and boys. A we'll
known Association worker is to open
a discussion on work among the men
and boys in factory districts and it
is expected that this will be topic
of absorbing interest.
Students from fifteen different In,
stitutions of learning are coming;
DELEGATIONS of active, wide awake
young men are coming from the
towns and cities.
Altogether it will be strong army
of determined young Christian war
riors that will take possession OF the
Capital early in February.
I The State Executive Committee,
through the columns of this paper,
extends special invitation to the
Christian men of the State to attend
this Convention. Any man who is
interested in the welfare of the men
and boys of South Carolina is Invited.
It will be necessary for him, how.
ever, to secure delegates credentials,
and this can be done by wri ing A. G.
Knebel, State Secretary Y, M. c. A,
Charleston, S. G. Parties desiring
further information should address
him.
There will be reduced rates on all
the railroads.
The people of Columbia will en-
tertain all delegates

Special to The Journal.
Helena, Mont, Sept. 4.-News has
reached here of an exciting incident that
occurred on the Blackfoot Indian reserva-
ton in the northern part Of the state a
few days ago when some Indians assumed
a very hostile attitude towards Agent
Monteah and threatened an open revolt.
Some Assinniboines from the Fort Bel
KNAPP reservation were visiting the Pie
gans on the Blackfoot reservation, and in
honor of the visitors the Piegans wanted
to give a dance. The agent peremrtorily
refused to permit it and one of the Piegan
chiefs becoming defiant said the dance
would be given anyway.
The agent ordered him arrested, but
several Of the Indian police mutinied and
refused to carry out the agents orders.
The Piegan chief and a lot Of his fol-
lowers gathered around the agent and
other whites in defiant attitudes and
threatened to bind the agent and throw
him in front Of a Great Northern train.
The agent was about to send message
to Fort Assiniboine for troops when a
friend advised him to Issue ration tickets
to the Indians. This had the effect OF
quieting them and the trouble blew over.
The decision Of the government to issue
no more rations OF the Indians because
they will not work is said to be at the
bottom Of the disaffectiOn.
