The Romance Of Your Name.
BY RUBY HAsKINS ELLIS.

THE earliest record Of this sur
name Is found in the Domesday
Book and was originally applied to the
town of Stubin, in County Essex, Eng
land. The name Stubing is derived
from the Saxon word "stub" and the
Latin "stipes" meaning stump Of q
tree. and ling" meaning meadow. Al
together, we have q "stubby-f1eld."
The name Stebbins has undergone
many changes in photography and we
find several forms still used by certain
families in England and America.
Such names as Stibing, Stubing, Ste
bin, Stebbing are represented by
number Of families apparently not re-
lated. It Is thought that the name
has been in use as a village name as
far back as the time of King Alfred.
One John de Stubing Of County Essex
is recorded in the chancery rolls in
1901.
Rowland Stebbins came to America
IN 1884 and settled in Roxbury, later
moving to Northampton, Mass. He is
thought to have come from County
Essex. Edward Stebbins was a free
man In Hartford, Conn.,. In 1885.

appears on the body wall, on the side
Of the base. It remains here until
fully developed, and drops from its
parent when grown.
These creatures are very greedy
and carnivorous. Their food Is small
organisms, shellfiph and crustaceans.
These they suck out Of their shells,
making q clean job Of It. To catch
their prey they have many singing
cells on their tentacles, with fine
singing threads whicn are elected
from pores distributed all over the
anemone's body.
As you can watch these creatures
ply their trade, I am sure you will
find some interesting ones this Sum-
mer. AS the same genus may be
found in ely-separated regions, you
may find them In different situations
and sizes, but you will know At once
that they belong to the same genus,
and realize what environment will do

body is about 2 inches long, with the
fringe. or tentacles. about 1 inch in
length. You find that these anemo-
mes like the shaded places. close to
piles and below the low-tide level
The body color is beautiful amber
and the fringe white. You can keep
them in q saltwater aquarium.
All anemones are barrel shaped.
They fasten their bases to a hard
substance. Some remain in one place
for life, others move about. All are
wonderfully colored. At the top of
the barrel there is a mouth slit
which opens into a sac and is about
one-half the length of the anemone's
body. Each tentacle Is hollow.
In q marvellous manner, the food
taken into the mouth enters the
stomach" and is digested. The
juices are passed through all the
chambers of the cavity and the nutri-
tive fluid is distributed The unde-
sirable part of the food Is cast out
through the mouth.
The sea anemones begin life as an
egg. They form on the edges OF the
inner walls Of the parent. When
mature. they are animated mouths
and swim about until they can fasten
themselves to rocks. Gradually they
take on the barrel form and a COM
plete whole is evolved. Some species
reproduce by budding. A small growth

Do you mean you're going to berry

no condition to run nor up to his
usual clever tricks for breaking the
trail, and because Of this he himself
ran all the harder. He was In sight
of Reddy when the latter reached the
burrow In which Jimmy Skunk and
his two grown sons were sleeping. He
saw how weak Reddy was, how he
staggered as he ran, and this caused
him to increase his own speed.
"I'n have that fellow in q few
minutes now," thought he, for he
knew nothing of that hole Of Jimmy
Skunk's. I'll have him and, by the
looks of him, he won't be able to put
up much of a fight"
So it was with more than a little
disappointment that he saw Reddy
disappear in that hole. He raced up
to it and there he stood and barked
and barked and barked. Then he
started digging. Every now and then
he backed out and barked. He just
could not bring himself to give up
and go home. He he'd been so sure
of that Fox that it did seem as il
he must have him.

stopped barking and listened. There
1t was again. 1t sounded as II some
one was coming up. If ever there
was a surprised Dog it was that one.
He just couldn't imagine Reddy COM
ing out, knowing that he was waiting
out there, yet some one certainly was
coming and, of course, it was Reddy
That it could be any one else never
entered his head. Hadn't he seen
Reddy 90 in there? So, of course, it
must be Reddy coming out.
He backed of a bit and waited.
Every nerve and muscle was tense.
He trembled with eagerness and ex-
element.
THAT certainly is a brave Fox"
said he to himself "I'll wait until
he gets just outside"
He was still now, all set for swift
spring as soon as Reddy should be
fairly outside that entrance. He was
a bit of to one side SO as not to be
seen by Reddy from inside. A head
appeared and-it wasn't Reddy's! No,
sir. 1t wasn't the head he had ex-
pected to see. 1t wasn't that head at
all. A more surprised Dog never lived.
