Assuming the HUSBANDS Name.

The practice OF the wife assuming
s.,e husbands name at marriage ori9i-
mated from Roman custom and be-
fame the common custom after the Ro
man occupation. Thus, Julia and DC
tavla, married to Pompey and Cicero,
wers called by the Romans julia OF
Pompey and Octavia Of Cicero, ana III
later times married women u most
European countries signed their names
In the same manner, but omitted inc
"of."
Against this view 1t may be nianuon-
81 that during the sixteenth ana even
nj the beginning Of the seventeenth
century the usage seems DOUBTFUL
since we find Catherine Parr so sign
ing herself after she had been twice
married. and we always hear Of Lady
Jane Grey mot Dudley, Arabeila
Stuart mot SEYMOUR, etc. Some per-
sons think that the custom originated
from the Scriptural teaching that hus-
band and wife are one. This was the
rule of law so far back as Braeton
(died 1868, and 1t was decided In the
case of Bon versus Smith, in the reign
of Elizabeth, that woman by mar
rage loses her former name and legal
ly receives the name of her husband.
Altogether the custom is involved In
much obscurity.

The Periods of Growth.

Children born between September
and February are. some authorities
state. not as tall as those born In sum-
mer and spring months, and the growth
of children is much more rapid from
March till August The extremities
grow rapidly up to the sixteenth year;
then there is a slow growth until the
thirtieth year. The legs chiefly grow
between the tenth and seventeenth
years. Comparing the general results,
il appears that there are six periods OF
growth. The first extends up to the
sixth or eighth year and is one of very
rapid growth; the second period. from
eleven to fourteen years, growth Is
slow; the third period. from sixteen to
seventeen; the fourth period shows
slow growth up to the age Of thirty for
height, up to fifty for chest girth; the
fifth period is one Of rest, the sixth
decrease In the body.

A Roman Cure For Consumption.

CELSIUS was Roman physician who
fiourished In the third century. He
was a follower of Hippocrates and
wrote various books on medicine. One
Of his prescriptions is for consumption
and, strange enough. 1t is quite in ac-
cord with modern methods in some re-
spects. He says; "As soon as a man
finds himself splitting and hacking on
rising In the morning he should imme-
diately take possession Of a COW and
go high up into the mountains and live
on the fruit Of that cow" Although
he knew nothing Of the cause of pbthi-
sis, he had observed that good living,
out of door life, lots of sunshine and an
abundance OF milk and cream were abb
solutely essential as prerequisites for
reatment.-Journalo of Hygiene.
