KNOWN BY NICKNAMES.
Plaets Where a Otnuln Surname Is
Never Even Heard.
Id many plncen In Great Itrltnln, and
wpedally In some of the Bulling vil
lage of Cornwall and of certain parts
of Scotland, such a thin as a genuine
surname Is twvor even heard. Every
man In the place is known by a ukk-
nan,e'
In most of tliow rlllngos this hns
been bruuglit about originally by the
fact that all the Inhabitants hare only
bad very fow surname among them.
One or two prevailing families bare
represented the population and haro
married aud litteriimrrlml till trying to
dltlngulHb a man by his surname u'a
only created confusion. And even
some of the nickname have begun to
act in tho amne way, At a village not
rery far from Wkk the writer knows
of soiuo flHhermeii who had originally
been iiliknamed "Puinpy" and had
left so many demendiuits that other
aperlfle nlrknnmee had been neceMsary
to dUtlngiiUhed which of the "Dum
pys" was men tit on given Oceanians.
At another villntre not far from this
one several nicknames bare In the
same way become tho only known fam
ily names. Tho writer was onco lit
the general chop here when a small
boy came In and aked for some nr
title. Mating that It was for Rlower.
"Mower r said the shopkeeper.
"Which Hlower? There are scores of
Blowers?"
The child answered at once: ,
"It's for 'PowlepRlf Mower, 'Red
Lugged (eared) Mower's laddie."
