History of pour Same.
BY PHILIP FRANCIS NONJAN,
ARKHURST.
Observation-Disclosures.
RACIAL ORIGiN-Enelish.
SOURCE-A locality.

rough estimate places the mum
Der of English family names which
have been derived from the names or
descriptions of localities at twice the
figure of those which have been de-
rived from all other sources. Moth
ing but rough estimate can be
given, because nobody has yet sue
ceeded in compiling with anything
like completeness the histories Of all
English family names.
So, If you are in doubt as to wheth-
er a given name comes from a place
name. or some other source. the
chances are two to one that it is the
derivative of a place name and that
its first use was to differentiate a
man by reference TO his residence.
OF course, in the name of Arkhurst
you have a pretty strong indication
that it is a development of a place
name from its second syllable The
trouble with this name is that the
first syllable, ark" or AK" may
fool you. AS a matter of fact, il has
nothing to do with an ark. 1t is
simply a varied form of the name of
the town of Hawkhurst. which is in
Kent.

Mrs. Reddy.
Mrs. Reddy crossed Farmer Browns
Gooryard. Farmer Browns Toy saw
her. She went over through the Old
orchard and finally jumped over into
the road. Then she trotted down the
road without hurrying. Those dogs
were so far behind her that she didn't
l:aye to hurry. She kept straight on
down the middle of the road. The road
was sandy and the sand was very dry.
She knew that it would not hold her
scent.
But to make doubly sure that those
dogs would not be able TO follow her
she took a long jump to one side, then
scrambled up on an old stone wall
and ran along the top of this as far
as she could. Then she jumped back
into the road again and kept on. SO
a last she came TO the very farm
where Reddy had stolen the chickens
and SO brought on all this trouble
She was going past when, happening
to look over toward the hcnhouse, she
saw that two or three hens had not
Yet gone into the henhouse for the
night.
Mrs. Reddy stopped. She looked
keenly this way and that way. No
one was to he seen. She turned in at
that farmyaTd; sped across II. seized
one OF those henS by the neck and
was gone almost before the other
hens knew what had happened She
carried that hen to secret place she
knew of on the edge Of the woods
from which she could peep out and
watch that farmyard
1t was dusk when Mrs. Reddy saw
several men stop 1T that farmhouse
with ,-."m We're several dogs The
dogs were at the heels Of their mas
trrs. Their heads were hanging
Their tails were down. Mrs Ready
grinned. She knew that those dogs
We're tired out Presently the men
separated. and each started for home
tired dog following him. Mrs
i;eddy stood up and yawned. The
hunt was over. 1t had been "A dread
full day, but it was over at last.
She looked down at the plump hen
At her feet and grinned again. Then
she picked II up and trotted away.
She was headed toward the Old Pas
ture and her ruined home.
L didn't intend to catch this hen
said she. L didn't plan TO do it
But I just couldn't help it. The
