CHANGING ONES NAME,
The Method In "A Rather Costly One
In Great Britain,

Many people change their names
without asking permission from any
one or paying any fees whatever. This
Is certainly the simplest way of get
ting rid Of a name you do not appre-
elate, but 1t is apt to prove expensive.
For instance. such course is strictly
Illegal, and the government could step
i'll at any time and demand the pay
ment Of a heavy fine; and, further
more. if the individual who changed
his name without consulting anybody
happened to come in for a large sum
of money unexpectedly the authorities
would decline TO recognize his claim
II lie had failed TO pay the fees due TO
the heralds' college for assuming u
name not given in baptism.
There are two ways of changing
your name, and they are both rather
costly. One method is to have a prl-
yate act of parliament passed for your
benefit. This course is generally fol-
lowed only by peers and people 10
whom money is no object, for 1t costs
ESQ. This nearly all goes in fees to
minor officials for bringing your ease
before the legislature, inasmuch as the
actual passing of the bill costs prac-
tically nothing. And the only adyan-
tage you will gain from this expensive
way of going TO work is that inquiries
will not be made into your past history,
which by the other alternative are I'M
avoidable.
The usual method adopted for legally
changing the name is somewhat te-
dious. If less costly, and you must have
very substantial reasons for SO doing
or your claim will not be allowed. IL,
for instance, you inherit property
which makes 1t conditional that you
change your name you can do so on
payment of about ESQ in fees.
In the first place you mHst COM
municate with the home secretary,
who. If he considers your claim valid,
will refer you to the heralds' college
and the king of arms. These officials
will make full inquiries into your his
tory and satisfy themselves beyond
question that your reason for wishing
to make the change is in every way
legitimate. This done, they will again
communicate with the home secretary,
who will lay your claim before the
king, for he alone has power to au-
thorize the change being made. Even.
tually. after some months of waiting,
you will be informed by the heralds'
college that his majesty has approved
of your claim and the change of name
is published in a remote corner of the
London Gazette.
Finally it is worthy of mention that
no one can hold "A public appointment
under government who has changed
his name without the consent of the
king however brilliant may have been
his services 10 the country. The reason
for this is rather curious. The name
given you ut your baptism is in theory
ratified by the sovereign as head of the
church, and by assuming another on
your own responsibility you are delib-
erately breaking n law of the land

THE UNISON WEED.
Probably "a Legacy to Us From South
America or Asia.


Once upon time the name of James
town must have been very sharply
shortened. Within the memory of
many people now living James WIS
pronounced "Jeems;" in fact, we be-
lieve that that was the accepted pro
nuneiation of our Virginian forefa-
Tiers. But "Jim'' must have been the
diminutive of "Jeems," as well as OF
James; at least we judge so because
what is popularity known as "the jim
son weed" really is the jamestown
weed.
Nor is there any reason to suppose
that this contraction was made jeer-
ingly or sneeringly. More probably 1t
grew into use LESS so,' and we find
intelligent Americans to whom it has
never occurred that there is any con-
nectlon whatever between jamestown
and Jimson All the same, the au-
thorities say that "Jimson' is "short"
for the name Of the place where the
English made their first permanent set
tiement in what is now the United
States and where the Old Dominion's
first capital was located.
The jimson weed, however, is not a
native plant, but probably came to us
from South America or Asia. 1t is a
question how it got to jamestown. but
we believe it is conceded that 1t is not
indigenous to Virginia. If it was de-
iberately and designedly imported, 1t
must have been because of its medic
inal value; certainly not for its odor,
which Is vile; certainly not for its flow
ers and leaves, because they do not
compare in beauty with those of scores
of native plants. And, while this weed
is now recognized as having some me
dicinal value, it may not have had that
reputation then" with Europeans. The
Chinese, however, use it to some eA-
tent incidentally and may have done
so from time immemorial, that country
being little given to the acceptance OF
new ideas or new remedies.-Richmond

BURIAL CUSTOMS.
The Various Methods Used In the
Disposal of the Dead.

The disposal of the dead among CIV
ilized nations has usually consisted Of
one of the following three ways:
Firstly, of closing up the body in earth
or stone; secondly. of burning the body
and committing to earth the ashes,
and, thirdly, the embalming of the
body. The earliest form of interment
OF which we have any account was
that of the paleolithie cave dwellers,
Who buried their dead in natural grot-
toes and crevices in the rock similar to
those in which they had lived.
When we come TO the later stone age
we find that the people throughout
Europe buried in chambered barrows
and cairns. Next comes the bronze
age, with its changes, and among 9th
ers the burial of the dead. The cham
bered barrows passed away, and in
their places barrows were frequently
used without chambers, and cemeteries
OF stone clsts set in the ground were
largely employed. Frequently a nat
ural eminence of sand or gravel was
the place assigned for burial, and
around it were circles of standing
stones. During these prehistoric times
cremation was also praetieed side by
side with the simple interments of the
people. In pagan times it was custom
ary, whether the dead were buried
with or without cremation, TO put in
their graves such articles as urns or
vessels of clay, bronze, gold or glass,
clothing, personal ornaments, imple-
ments and weapons of warfare.
Cremation was largely abolished
when Christianity spread over the
country, and the interment of grave
goods was restricted to kings and
priests, who continued to be buried in
their royal and sacerdotal robes and
with their insignia of office.
Down to the tenth century cremation
was customary among the tribes locat-
ed along the yolga. Here also human
sacrifices in honor of the dead pre-
vailed Records of eyewitnesses of the
horrible ceremonies have come down to
us. Charlemagne prohibited this usage
among the conquered Saxons under
pain of death. In India the living wild
ow was in many instances down to
1920 burned with the corpse of her hus-
band.
