BIRD WlGWAGS LOVE SIGNALS
Racket-TaiIed Hammer Also May Be
Said to Use Flags to Challenge
Its Foes.

Signal officer of the birds army
corps is the racket-tailed humming
bird. For his duties nature has
equipped him with a pair of purple
flags fashioned out OF two long and
peculiar tail feathers. He wigwags his
signals from one tree to another, is
sues his challenges to battle and courts
his mate. When he's not signaling he's
slipping honey from the flowers and
trying to keep his tail from entangling
itself in the briers.
He's midget of the South American
mountains. He has short wings, which
he operates at lightning speed, hum
ming song with them as he dives into
a flower and comes out again with a
billful of honey.
His tail is combination of two wire
like handles, with a purple tuft of
feathers at the end of each. He crosses
them near the middle and sometimes
he brings the pair of "rackets" at the
ends to his head, as though trying to
fan himself.
The male birds have a sort OF love
dance which they engage in during the
mating season. Then they play all
sorts of tricks with the rackets,

THE ORIGIN OF SURNAMES
Those Most Familiar Were Taken
Originally From the Occupations
Of the Holders.

Once upon a time given names
were the only names in use. One was
Tom, Dick or Harry, and that was
all there was about it. Our present
surnames arose from the nicknames.
Thus Tom the Taylor became in time
Tom Taylor, and his descendants
used Taylor as the family name. The
most familiar OF our surnames were
taken from the occupations of our
forefathers, as Smiths, Bakers, Brew
ers, etc Many men, moving to new
towns, had the name of the place
from which they had come fastened
upon them. Others took names like
Pope, King and Bishop, from playing
those parts in plays. Hogg and Ba-
con are simple. Purcell developed
from pourcel, meaning little pig. Gait
and Grice are old dialect words of
the same meaning. Tod meant fox.
Fitchie was polecat, and so the keen
student of language traces the begin
nings Of our names in the old dialects.
Some of the nicknames were original
" distinctly uncomplimentary, as See
" for silly, Cameron for crooked nose
and Kennedy for ugly head. Grace
developed from gras or fat.-Ameri-
can Boy.

one of those disappointed, for in in
telligence and fortune Burton was a
most eligible party.
The boys at the club were fond
of jokes and the arrival of the month
with 29 days in it favored their
wicked designs.
Now, then, you want to rush the
program h@t and heavy" was the
decision of Ned Walton. tireless mis-
chief maker and therefore the plot to
give Burton a period OF misery was
set in motion.
"A Young lady called twice, sir !"
was the announcement of his landlady
two evenings later, when Burton came
home from the office.
He colored and fidgeted. Visits from
young ladies comprised a proceeding
to which Burton was an utter
stranger. He could not even recall
where recently he had Joined company
with a member of the opposite sex
so far as a single block on the public
streets
"Er-that is strange. Leave any
name? All, perhaps my sister from
Smithville."
"Oh, no, sir-I know her." disclosed
the landlady. She was yelled. Your
visitor was young and graceful and
acted very anxious to see you. 1t
struck me she was quite mysterious.
And when she left noticed she joined
two other ladies' in the street"
Witnesses! gasped Burton to him
self. IF all the crowd tell about the
out ,andish exercise of the leap-year
privilege by the female sex this
wear is true, fear am going to be
the object of some annoyance
For three days Burton did not go
home to dinner. For three evenings
he went without a light in his room
and barricaded the doors. His yelled

thinking of the boy.

he said. you can think 1t over. The
Job will be open for a month"
Red" did not deign to answer him.
II, sat down on his stool and buried
his face in his hands. All the past
memories came thronging back. Once
been Red" then, and he had moved
among people who could not have i'm
agined the subsequent life. Then had
come temptation. in the shape OF a
crook who had spotted his talent.
Red" had seen easy money before
him and had succumbed.
He thanked God that his wife had
never known. Red" had been Mr..
Crofts, churchgoer and respected In
their suburban home. Red was as
secretive with his pals as he was with
the United States detectives. Only
once a year he emerged into the I'M
derworld to help out with another job
and take home another years supply
of capital. The shrewdest man in the
game, he had long bahled Uncle Sam.
Red cursed bitterly as the cell
door changed behind Harris. Why, he
knew just where to make ample re-
turns for his Imprisonment. Red"
could walk into any cOunterfeiters'
headquarters and there would be cry
of joy. Red" was the most wanted
man among the criminal fraternity Of
America. None so shrewd as he, no
hand so steady.
And he would avenge himself ten
fold. He would find Father" Tom
Costigan, the man whom the detectives
had never got yet, the graybeard of
seventy-five who had Iured him to
his own downfall Father" kept a
warm spot in his heart for Red"
Red" could hardly endure the de-
lays OF the last few days. He smacked
his lips as in imagination he saw him
self at work upon the steel plates.
Red" felt the glamor OF the old world
anew. He squared his shoulders as
he left the penitentiary gates in his
new suit, and laughed defiantly at the
admonitions of the warden.

oiushlng glance had caught sight of
q faded lady of uncertain age waving
her hand at him and calling his name.
ne teigned not to hear. He saw her

he saw her run out of the front door.

In desperation Burton edged on the
street A row of bushes protected
him How was he to know that Miss
Celia Dempster was simply seeking
from him a contribution to the town
relief fund for the poor?
Then as he glided through the open
doorway Of great barn and realized
where he was, Burton flushed to the
roots OF his hair. Why he had in
Vaded the precincts Of the Morton

dear name to him, although he had
never told anyone so-no one, not
even Ruth herself. who would have
been pleased to learn the fact.
Twice he had been Ruth's escort to
a town entertainment. Then he had
been too bashful to call. Often he
had thought of her. Now he lodged

Ruth, and she looked really pleased,

"Er-why. yes" declared Burton in
