surnames in Bosnia.

Bosnia is land where a mans sur name very often varies according to his religion. In the old days families often divided their members between Christianity and Islam so as to be cer tain to have friends on the winning side, much as old Scottish families in some cases deliberately divided them
 selves between Jacobite and Hanove- rian In such Bosnian cases. Sir Charles Eliot explains, all representa-
 lives of the original family recognize each other as relatives, but generally they use different names for the two branches, conveying the same mean ing in Slavonic and Turkish rspective, Iy For example, there are the names Raikovich and Jennetich ('tRai'' and .Jennet" both meaning paradisel and SokoIich and Shahinagich t''sokol" and .Shahin'' both meaning falconD.
