Names in Samoa.

Travellers visiting Samoa are puz-
zled at first by the fact that many
boys bear feminine names, while girls
as frequently have masculine names.
The visitor learns after awhile. how.
ever, that this confusing use of names
instead of being due to ignorance is
in reality the result of native GUS
tom which is highly poetic
Thus If a girl is born soon after
the death of a brother the latter's
name is given to her in the belief that
his spirit and all his good qualities
have been transferred to her. On the
other hand, If boy is born after the
death Of sister he takes the latter's
name and, as the Samoans believe,
al her lovable traits become his.

RECIPROCITY BILL
PASSES SENATE
TRADE AGREEMENT BETWEEN
UNITED STATES AND CANADA
HAS BEEN APPROVED.
The Vote Was So to n, only Three
Democrats Voting Against the
Measure Which Has Occupied A.
tention Of Two Sessions Of
Congress.

Washington.-By vote or 80 to n
the senate on Saturday approved the
reciprocal trade agreement between
the United States and Canada, en-
bodied in the reciprocity bill that had
proved storm center in two sessions
Of congress.
A majority Of the Republicans voted
against the measure. OF ffty-three
votes for it thirty1two were Demo
cratic and twenty-one Republican; OF
the twentyIseven against, twenty-four
we're Republican and three Demo
cratic.
This action settled the whole Cana
dian reciprocity question SO far as
congress is concerned, and save for
executive approval and the Canadian
parliament's ratification, virtually
made the pact the law of the land.
The reciprocity bill, having origi-
mated in the house, must be returned
there for engrossment and for the sig
nature of Speaker Clark, while the
house is sitting.
The Canadian parliament has not
yet acted on the agreement and with
one exception the provisions of the
bill as passed by congress will not be-
come effective until the president is
sues a proclamation that Canada has
ratified the pact. The exception to
this procedure is in the paper and
pulp section of the bill, which it is an
nounced will become Immediately eff
Elective when the president signs the
| law.

ments and on the final passage of the
