How the Months Got Their Names.

NOW the months Got 7 heir Names
The months of the year obtained
their names from widely varying
sources. January was named from the
Roman god Janus, the deity with two
1lces, one looking to the east and the
other toward the west February comes
from the Latin word februo, to purify
1t was the ancient Roman custom to
hold festivals of publication during
that month. March owes its name to
an old god of war. Among the Sax
ons this month was known as lenst,
meaning spring, which was the origin
of our word Lent 1t is claimed by
some that April was named from the
Latin word aperire, open, in slgniflea-
ton of the opening buds. In Saxon
days 1t was called castro, in honor of
Eastra, the goddess of spring, from
which comes our word Easter. May
was named after Maia, the Roman
goddess of growth or increase, and
June was from the Latin juvenis
(young). julius Caesar himself named
July In his own honor, and August was
likewise named By Augustus Caesar.
September Is from the Latin word sep
tenn, meaning seven, 1t being the sew
enth month of the year according 10
the old Roman calendar. and October,
November and December likewise re-
tain the names they were known by In
the old Roman calendar.

Saturday evening, January 5th, and
from there proceeded to the home Of

son, Agard Johnson. There we're
about IS persons in the party which
made just the right size Of gathering
to have good time at the spacious
and comfortable home of the young
man, who was to be .honored. The
party arrived about nine O'Clock in
the evening, and after the presenta-
tion Of an elegant writing desk and
album, they enjoyed themselves with
music, games and other amusements.
A splendid supper was spread by the
visitors and at a late hour they dis
persed after one of the moste njoyable
evening they had had the good fortune
to experience. ss
The occasion was Mr.. Agard john

rs days.
She was born in Sweden, and after
coming to America she lived for a
number OF years in Goodhue County,
MINI. In 1883 she came to Warren,
near where her four brothers resided,
making her home in town Of Vega
until she removed to this city a
number of years ago. She was a
devout and sincere Christian, true
member OF the Swedish Lutheran
church, in the work of which she
took a great deal Of interest. Her
health had been poor for long time
and the last three months she suffered
much. But now SHE has arrived at
the place where no pain or suffering
can enter foreverlnore.
She is mourned Immediately by her
four brothers, Alfred, Frank g.,
Aaron, and John W. johnson, and
their families, a sister in Goodhue
County, and many other relatives
and friends. Her memory will live
long to bless those who were her
friends in life.
The funeral was held from the
Swedish Lutheran church at Vega
on Sunday last, and was conducted
by Prof. p. 0. Qhelgren, of Gustayus

A After the wedding ceremony a
bountiful supper was served, after
which the young people spent the

Miss Lindahl was well known in
this town having spent her child
hood and most Of her girlhood here
and she will be followed to her new
home by the best wishes Of a number

her father, her mother having died
just a few months before.

best known young men being engaged
as clerk in Mr.. NJ. Lund's store at
