What's in a Name2

The American Indians, having ap- parently run out of such names as Laughing Water and Sitting Bull, have now turned to the field of pOpu- lar songs for inspiration, and we read of redskin in Calgary named Darda- nella.

AMBITION SCARED TOO HIGH
Pioneer Grape Grower Unfortunately Was Not Satisfied With First
 Really Excellent Results.

A hundred years ago Dr. c. w. Grant bought a small, rOck-ribbed island in the Hudson river nearly op- posite Peekskill. There was a general laugh at what people declrred to be his folly, as the island was so barren and worthless that it did not seem pos sible for anything to grow there. Doc tor Grant, however, had ideas of his own, and he began a growth of grapes of the then new variety, the Delaware. In a very short time the island was known to grape growers all over the country, and Doctor Grant was de- clared to have done more for grape culture than any other man in Amer lea.
 The great business enjoyed by the physician turned his head, and he be- gan to work toward a scheme that would turn the island into a paradise of growing flowers, especially mag noIias and rhOdodendrons, and he hoped to give seed or cuttings to every home in America. The result of his attempts was bankruptcy, and he left the island, which soon went back to rock and barren soil.
