A Cause of Drowning.

In swimming under blazing sun the
body is submerged at a low tempera-
ture, while the full force of the sun
beats on the unprotected head. To add
to the obvious dangers of such state
Of things the blood is forced into the
head by the pumping action of the
limbs in swimming, thus causing the
arteries in other parts of the body to be
overfilled. The consequence is often a
violent headache, which may be fol
lowed by insensibility. The swimmer
sinks and unless help is at hand adds

SOME IRISH COGNOMENS.
Meanings Attached to the Most Com
mon of the Surnames.

Meanings Attached to the Most Com
mon of the Surnames.
The fact is not generally known that
Ireland was the first country in mod
ern Europe to enforce the adoption of
surnames by law. The act prescribing
their general use was passed more than
a hundred years before the Anglo Nor
man invasion, whereas surnames did
not come into general use in England
until the days of Queen Elizabeth nor
in Wales till late in the seventeenth
century.
There are some interesting meanings
attaching to the most common of Irish
names, says the London Tit-Bits. Here
are few with the curious changes of
spelling that have come about since the
names first originated:
Murphy came from O'Murphy, Nor
phey and Morphew, meaning superb
or" Kelly came from O'Kelly, Kiely,
Kelley, meaning "for war; O'Connor
came from Connors, Conerty, meaning
HELPER" and Dougherty from O'Do-
herty, Doherty Daughaday, meaning
destroyer" It is noticeable that all
Irish names at the first stage in their
history had CO." before them, the first
change consisting of dropping that
"O'." It will not be necessary there
fore to repeat the name with the 90"
before it.
Sullivan was originally Sillifant and
Sullivant, meaning "quick sighted"
ODonnell and Mcdonnell and all com.
binations of that name were Donald,
Daniel, Dona, meaning dark Chief"
Moloney was O'Mullowney, Meloney,
Mullany, meaning thoughtful" Nc.
Cormack was O'Cormack; McCormac,
Mccormick, meaning "son of the
CROWN" Flynn was Flann, meaning
"red;" Flanagan was Finnigen, mean
ing "druid;' Boyle was Boy1an, Bo,
land, Bolan, Boylin, meaning Benign"
OBrian was Bryan, Bryant, Brines
Bryon, meaning author" Brady was
McBrady, meaning "ship captain and
Macauley was OCawlew, McGawly,
McAuly, McAuliff, Cawley, meaning
"echo,' Or literally "son Of the rock

GRADING DIAMONDS.
Qualities In Stones of the First, Second
and Third Water.

and Third Water.
"a diamond of the first water should
be entirely colorless and transparent,
without any inclusion or faw," says
the Scientific American. ut is of the
second water if it is colorless with
small but unimportant faults or if it is
without faults, but with some traces of
color, and third water if it is colorless.
but with larger faults or if it is dis
tinctly colored. The correct valuation
is therefore very difficult and often
subject to the jewelers. judgment. For
this reason Professor Rosiwal gives to
the layman the following hints:
1.-The requisite in stones of the first
water is perfect lack of color or. what
is more highly priced, a tinge of blue.
In general, beautifully colored dia-
monds command fabulous prices and
are to be found only in the treasure
vaults Of princes.
stones OF the second water are nu-
merous. They are supposed to be mi
croscoplcally pure, but almost always
show some inclusions. There are often
times traces of yellow color in this
grade, and because this can be seen
best in sunlight one should never buy
diamonds at night, for the prevailing
lights cause stones that are even no.
ticeably yellowish to appear clear.
Most of the stones of the ordinary
market are Of the third quality, and
the dealers try to cover up their faults
by combining them into groups for Dor
der stones or for the popular pendants,
diamond hearts, marquise rings, etc
While they may be colorless, they are
often so full Of flaws that they would
be ranked as bort or diamonds good
only for mechanical purposes, if there
had not been such demand for the
gems as to increase the price,
