It isn't a bit cooler to be on the

To be a man is TO be the worry of

Before doing anything as result of

Every man fatters himself that he

The Earliest Surnames.

The earliest surnames were probably
those bestowed by the Romans and
Greeks, though it may be said that the
Jews of still earlier date had sur
names to some extent. In most cases,
however, the surnames of the Hebrews
were tribal and not permanent, as are
those Of today. The very earliest sur
names in the modern sense of that
term date from the middle ages, when
mobiles were known by the name of
their domains and common people by
the name of their dwelling places. A.
great many surnames were bestowed
on account of personal peculiarities,
such as Long, Short, Stout, Stoop,
Small, etc., others on account of trade,
such as Saddler, Smith, Baker, Weaver.
Fowler, Gardner, etc. A third class
took names from the places where they
resided. Examples in this class are
John Hill and John Underhill, the first
John living on the hill and the second
in the little valley under the bluff
There were few, If any, surnames in
England prior to the time Of the Nor
man conquest, and in Ireland they did
not become common until 1865. The
German Jews did not use surnames
until about 1925.

Strength of nfusseIs.

You must, some time. try to open
the shell of fresh water mussel or a
sea clam. You will find one the size
of your hand has great strength, al
though both his muscles may not be
larger than those of one of your fin
gers. I have often seen boy pick up
a mussel and insert his fingers before
the shell was quite closed, thinking he
would open it again. Few boys can
succeed. They usually have hard pull
ing to get their fingers free. A big
mussel can bite hard. Were it not
that the edge of the shell, in big speci-
mems, is smooth and thick, boy might
get his fingers cut to the bone. = st.

Petrarch the great Italian poet, who
lived frola 1904 to 1874, met Laura,
the golde@ haired French beauty, on
April 6, 1927, In the Church Of st.
Clara, in Avignon, and fell at once
deeply and permanently in love with
her. She was then nineteen years old
and the wife Of Hughes de SADIE. For
ten years Petrarch lived near her in
the papal city and met her frequently
In church and in society 1t was then
that he sang the praises Of her charm
and loneliness In those sonnets which
are so eloquent Of his devotion.
Laura was not insensible to a worship
such as had made the Emperor Charles
". beg to be allowed to kiss her fore
head, but she kept the passionate poet
at proper distance and rebuked him
sternly on the only occasion on which
he ventured to avoW his love. After
her death he withdrew from Avignon
and ended his days III Italy

An observer tells this: i was once
an interested spectator of a short
struggle between wasp and one of
those large flies like bee with a big.
fat head. The pair were on the
ground, and watched while the wasp,
after probably singing the fly, delib-
erately severed the head from the body
and then, finding it still too heavy a
burden, cut off the tail end of the fly
and flew off with the trunk without
waiting to perform its toilet. The
whole operation took about five min
utes, and from the mastery manner
the wasp set to work he was evidently
a practiced hand.

WILD MEN OF AUSTRALIA.
An Aboriginal Dwelling and Sweet
but Unfnyiting Dish.

An explorer in the wilds of northern
Australia writes: While at work one
day Mr. Kingston found an aboriginal
dwelling which revealed evidences Of
architectural design seldom displayed
by Australian aborigines. 1t was evil
IDENTIFY main camping depot, oval in
shape, about sixteen feet long and four
teen feet high. 1t was built of layers
of straw interinixed with good stiff
clay. Small openings as windows were
numerous all round the sides. The
door was the only drawback. This
was mere burrow hole about one foot
from the ground, and one was COM
PEELED to crawl in on all tours to enter
this primitive type of mansion. When
we cleared the river we anchored at
Maria island Seeing some Of the
blacks on the beach we went to inter
view them. They were apparently
frightened, however, and abandoned
the canoes on which they were at work
and cleared into the bush. Care was
taken not to interfere with their pos
sessions, and pipes and tobacco were
left where the natives could find them.
Rambling about we came upon an open
space of considerable extent marked
out In large squares with stone, on
which were planted, three to five feet
high, five or six hollow posts, which
were stuffed full of human bones. All
the posts were painted red. We doubt
less had stumbled upon sacred spot.
There were some nice skulls, but not
thing was interfered with.
"a few miles up the river we struck
big camp Of natives, but they cleared
into the bush as soon as they caught
sight of u.s. We waited some time at
the camp, and the blacks returned, sat
isfed that we did not intend mischief.
The usual presents of tobacco and pipes
were given, and they were received
with the greatest satisfaction. Indeed,
we became perfect friends for the time
being. To seal the friendship, or, per-
chance, it may have been the native
fashion Of looking toward you, a great
buck came to me with wooden yes
sci shaped like a canoe in his hand and
full of honey I noticed on the top a
ball Of grass The chap held the honey
to me, but l shook my head, so he took
the ball of grass, whisked it about In
the strip and popped it into his mouth.
After sucking it dry he put 1t back into
the honey, and when nicely soaked of
fered it to me again He evidently
wished me to follow his example, but
passed. There was fine iguana on
the fire, just nicely cooked. This I
did try, and it was really good-just
like chicken"
