The meaning'; of the given name is "like God." “ In that period of English history | when the Saxon and Norman tonsuee‘ had just combined, when Normans and | Angloâ€"Saxons finally lost their pride in race for pride in nationality, there came about a change in the type of | given names. This was no doubt due in part to the absolute necessity for| more names, for population was inâ€" | creasing and the same force which ‘finally brought about the developmentl | of a second, or family, name for the : '\md;vm‘xal also tended to increase the | |\ number of given names. In that period | there was a general turning to the | | Sceriptures and to scriptural history in search of names. | Naturally Michael, the name of the archangel, was a popular one. And from it naturally developed a surname by the addition of "gon.‘" At this : period, in the South, the linguistic tenâ€" _ dency was toward a softening of proâ€" nunciation and the namée became | Mitchel, while it remained Michael in °‘ the North, just as the same word beâ€" ‘‘ came "ditch" in the South and "dyke" ‘ in the North.

The word comes from ‘the same root as Cur modern word | "grave," a burial place, and as our | modern word "engrave." . It comes‘ from a verb meaning to cut, about the‘ / only part of which that remains is the | past participle "graven." ! All of these family names fall withâ€" | in the classification of place names. ;‘ The "hargreave" was a woodland path ‘ noted for the.presence of hares. Perâ€" sons who lived at or near such places _ naturally were spoken of as "John atte 1 Hargreave," or "Roger de la Harâ€" Variationsâ€"Hargreaves A1dFBAUEET C3 S PS 1w greave," the prefixes being dropped . later when the names came to indicate the persons themselves rather than the places where they lived. _ The "coney" or "conyng" was & rabbit. Hence the names Congrave and Harâ€" grave are virtually the same. A perâ€" son who dwelt near a grove was either a "grover," a "greaver" or & "graver," though sometimes this family name may indicate the occupation _ rather than the place in which its original bearer dwelt. miles a second, and think how long even the hardest metal could stand the friction.

The human body is subject to many ills, and there are times, of course, when expert medical advice should be sought. But the following quick cures are not of the "quack" variety, and would be approved by doctors. For indigestion eat less, and slowly. Masticate and reâ€"masticate each mouthful of food. For stoutness, drink less; eat much | less; and walk six miles per day. \ For thinness, eat fattening (farinacâ€" eous) foods; go to bed early and get] up late; indulge, if possible, in an afâ€" ternoon nap, and take a spoonful of olive oil after each meal. & For "nerves" eat prunes; don‘t smoke; reduce your consumption of tea; go for a quiet halfâ€"mile walk beâ€" fore breakfast, and tse your will power PCCCORCCT For a weak chest or tendency to| colds, breathe deeply always.

For nouraigila, eat (because of its strong countent of iron) spinach on every possible occasion. For a Aushed or pimply face, avold all pastry; eat little meat, but much fruit and green vegetables; and drink no alcohol. Finally, to keep good general health, use cold waterâ€"three large glasses daily internally, and a gallon or so exâ€" ternally.

We know definitely that an elephant will live for more than a century, and that a goose can survive to the age of sixty. l'pmrks upon which showed that it beâ€" llonged to a whaler which had been ‘b‘:‘oken up forty years before. b It would seem that this whale had | been hunted at least half a century | eartier, and since the creature must | then have been of fair size, it is probâ€" ‘able that at the time of its death it i was about a hundred years old. ) _ Walruses certainly live to fifty years | of age, and possibly longer, while a -‘seal has lived in captivity for thirty â€"| years. But when we come to fish or to creaâ€" tures whose life is spent in the waters, the difficulty of ascertaining their ages is very great. Since it is usually the largest aniâ€" mals that live longest, we can assume that the whale is very longâ€"lived. Of this fact we have also some definite proof. In 1866 a huge bull sperm whale was killed. _ In its body was found the head of an old harpoon, The longestâ€"lived creatures are repâ€" tiles, and we aro aware that the glant Galapagos tortoise has a life extendâ€" ing to two conturies. And since we know that the great sea turtles are very slow growing, yet reach a weight of six hundred pounds, we are justified in believing that these creatures, too, may live to boe at least a hundred years old. It is more than likely that monster devilâ€"fish, the romains of which have at times been washed ashore on beachâ€" es, may have lived for centuries in the cold, black abysses. Building Up.

Sea Monsters‘ Centuries of Life. ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO The Nootkas of Vancouver Island are village dwellers. Their oldâ€"time rectangular houses of cedar planks formerly stood close. to the water‘s edge in the majestic fiords that indent the impenetrable _ mountains and forests of the interior. . Now their small modernized settlements _ are strung north and south in beadâ€"like fashion all along the west coast of their island home. They have occuâ€" pied the same coves from time imâ€" memorial. Far away to the East, across the mountains, lived the elusive hunters of the endless plains, the Crees, the Stonies and the Blackfeet, whose noâ€" madic existence admitted of no fixed abode and whose conical skin tipis inâ€" cessantly shifted from place to place for the requirements of peace and war. Even at the present day, after the‘ government has barbâ€"wired them on reserves, their Indian Agencies and] Missions stand in louely isolation, like! symbols of the new restrictions whlch‘ have not yet won full recognition in the land. ‘ Whereas the Nootkas depended on the deep sea for subsistenceâ€"their foods being codfish, salmon, whale, candlefish oil and seal blubberâ€"the restless rovers of the prairies coveted ‘nnthing but buffalo meat, which, once their ravenous appetites were satisâ€" ‘fied, they dried in the sun or prepared into pemmi{ican for preservation. If the former cared nothing for the flesh of land animals, the latterâ€"the Blackfeet in particularâ€"loathed all fishâ€"eaters, !for fish in their estimation was as "unâ€" clean" people. EC CORRCT Their respective modes of travelling‘ and bhunting were as far apart as the | pature of their foods. The coast fishâ€" ermen could not betake themselves to any distance without their oneâ€"piece cancee hollowed out from the trunks of the giant cedars; they fished with nets of wild hemp and hooks made of bone and hardwood. They gathered in cance parties for hunting the whale, their weapons being detachable harâ€" poon heads fastened to large seal \stc‘ma,ch floats and propelled by long poles. The whaleâ€"hunting songs and \ magic rituals of their chief were, in their belief, no less essential for the success of their venturesome enterâ€" \ prises than the primitive harpoons they employed.
