People have not always been alâ€" lowed the pleasure of having as many names as they wished ; inâ€" deed, 400 years ago not even a midâ€" dle name was allowed in England. It was illegal. The old English law was definite and admitted of no inâ€" fraction of its ruling. The on‘ly exâ€" ception in this ironclad regu‘lation was in the case of persons of royal rank. If they really wished it, they could boast of a middle name, but woe to the person of ordinary rank who was sufficiently unwise or obâ€" stinate to insist on having more than two appellations. _ e There is a case on recong of a poor manâ€"in all probability half dementedâ€"who insisted on signing four names every time he wrote his signature to any paper.

The great part of the banana crop is raised on the shores and islands of the Caribbean Sea. Throughout the West Indies, Central America and the northern shores of South America are to be found countless banana plantations, highly cultiâ€" vated, covering thousands of acres. The moment the bunches of bananas have been severed from the trees every effort is made to send the fruit Â¥ market with the least possiâ€" ble delay. The great fleet of fruit steamships which bring us our banana supply are equipped with the latest form of refrigerating plants. Here the bananas are stored in great vaults, where an even temperature is mainâ€" tained day and night throughout the voyage. A single fruit vessel will carry from thirty thousand to fifty thousand bunches, so that the cooling rooms must naturally be large. As a rule, a special offer is placed in charge of the cooling machinery, and it is his sole duty to watch the thermometer and keep the banana holds at the right temâ€" perature throughout the voyage.
