her title to the crown" At her death
he became competitor for the crown
of Scotland as the son and heir Of
John, who was son of Donald, king Of
Scotland
"The great house of Confines" is
the usual style, when speaking of the
family, but you can spell the name in
40, more or less, ways.
Here are a few samples for gratu-

Cummins, Cumyn, Comm, Comyn,

Virginia and Maryland were early
homes of the Cumming family, and
there the name was usually spelled
Cummins. The marriage connections
of the southern branch include the
Folks, Dennys, Hydes, Hollis, Jen-
nings, Edmundsons, Herberts and
Langs.
In New England the more common
orthgraphy has been Cummings. Isaac
of Ipswich, Mass, is the forefather OF
this line, and valuable asset as an
ancestor for he was man of mark,
holding many offices. In 1641, he was
constable, and his son Isaac was the
deputy, and he also held many Offices
and was sergeant in an Indian war.
Isaac, the first, was a pillar of the
church, and none was more worthy
in the town than old Deacon Cum
mings.
The pilgrim had several children;
besides Isaac, there was John, who
married Sarah Howlet, daughter of

Sea Birds.

Taking the sea birds all round, they
are far more careless in their nesting
than their cousins inland. The terms,
the skua, the puf1ns, the black-throat-
ed diver, the guillemot make no nests,
properly so called. The putin, how
ever, usually burrows a rabbit burrow,
and Is not particular whether it's orig
inal owners have done with their home
or not. If they interfere, or even try
to pass peck from the puff1n's great
parrot-shaped bill is enough to warn
them against trying the experiment
a second time. The auks are birds
Of the northern seas, and are, per-
haps, the finest divers of any feather
ed things. Their short wings look,
In fact, more like fins than wings, and,
unlike gulls, the auks catch their prey
beneath the furface. The auks selec-
ton of spot to lay her eggs is &C.
centric to a degree. She chooses a
bare, broken ledge of hard rock, over
hanging the waves. 1t looks as though
1t were feat to balance eggs in such
q place, and the marvel is that the
first gale does not send them rolling
over the crags.

GIRLS TO LEARN CARPENTRY
they Handle Saw, Hammer, Plane
and Other Tools With Skill and
in All Seriousness.

It is only recently that young girls
nave taken 1t into their pretty heads
to do the work of carpenters. More
over, they do it exceedingly we'll, while
being particularly keen about the
sport, exercise, useful accomplish
ment or whatever they are pleased to
term the pastime, says the New York
World. 1t Is not implied that they
merely provide themselves with a kit
of tools and then seek about for odd
Jobs at which to amuse themselves.
The cult of carpentry is entered into
seriously
At various conspicuous country
places girls who keep abreast of the
times have formed classes at which
practical carpentry is taught.
To procure a good teacher for such
a class Is also necessary to it's sue
cess. A few Of the most capable
teachers are women. Boston espe-
cially has provided a number.
The moment of intense interest oc-
ours when the class is promoted from
the general practice work on which
one has left her mark to the beginning
of individual pieces. Often then the
first choice of girl is to make a table
or a chest, although the small wall
cabinet. with shelves for medicine or
other bottles, SENS to be the favor
tie first bit of individual work This
piece is done under the eye of the
teacher, and often she lends a help
ing hand should the beginner find 1t
somewhat difficult of accomplishment
1t is nevertheless a proud day for
the pupil when she finishes her first
piece of carpentry work. A cabinet,
no matter how plain, when made by
her own fair hands becomes a thing
more precious than one that could be
bought for even a high pile of filthy
lucre.
AS their skill and their knowledge
increases there is no limit to the am
billions of girl carpenters. Repairs
and additions that are needed in their
rooms or about their homes they
tackle with energy. ts'~-~,

Hn171if1 Family

Hamlin, at the time Of it's birth as
surname, was perhaps handicapped
as Haemhlynna. All along the ages it
has taken on variety of forms, and
in records Of the Hamlins we find that
Hameltnus (the Latin form) was one
of it's variants And there were 9TH
ers: Hammelin, Hamelin, Hameline,
Hamline, Hameln, Haemlyn Hamlyn,
Hamlen, Hamblin, and Hamblen.
Hamblen and Hamlin are the more
usual forms of the present day.
Hammeline is a name found in
Domesday Book One of William the
Conqueror's followers was called
Hamelinus, also Hameline and Hame-
lin. It was a custom, after the Con-
quest, for persons who had come over
with William to be called by the name
of the places they had come from, eth
er in France or other countries. and
to bestow these names upon the es-
tates William so lavishly dealt out to
them. Hamelinus may have been q
native of France or Germany. Hamm
is a town in Prussia, and was thus
Is place in Belgium. Hameln, or
Hameltr, in Hanover, is famed as the
scene of the myth of the pied Piper
of Halneln." Although myth, for
considerable time the town dated it's
public documents from that event"
In the seventeenth century some one
writing of this myth, or "fact," as
he calls 1t, says: mo music Is ever al
lowed to be played in this particular
street, e., the street through which
the pied piper piped the children.
Hameln or Hamelin is also called
Ha1neola and Hamelowe. Hamburg,
founded by Charlemagne in the ninth
century, is a name having the same
derivation that is, ham, hama, hanna,
or hame, word meaning house, or
dwelling, or home. From the word
also comes hamlet, collection Of
houses Lin, linn, lime or llyn means
a pool, pond or lake. Hlynna iB a sim
liar Saxon word meaning a torrent.
Hammellyn, and It's variations, there
fore, meant originally homo by the
pool"
If Hamelinus, the follower of the
Conqueror, was Frenchman born, his
native place was undoubtedly Ham,
small town and fortress on the river
Somme. This town was in existence
as early as the ninth century.
Among seats of the family, dating
from that indefinite period known as
time immemorial, may be named Lei
cester; Exeter; HamIinstof; Clovelly
Court, Devonshire; also Leawood,
Bridestowe, Paschoe and Colebrook of
the same county. One name we find
in the records Is that of Thomas Ham
line. alderman of Drogheda.

he settled in 1889. Another immigrant
was Capt. Giles Hamlin, also called the
Honorable Giles. He settled at Mid
dletown, Conn.
The statesman of the family was
Hannibal Hamlin, born in Maine. Leon
idas, who spelled the name Hamline,
was lawyer, bishop, editor and author.

Hamlins of Leicester, is blazoned by

The arms illustrated was granted to
John de Hameline, a knight of Leices-

to 1907. No date is given for the
granting of the crest; nor do we know
upon whom 1t was bestowed While
arms may exist without crests, all
crests have their accompanying arms.
