WHENCE NAMES COME
THE SURPRISING CHANGES THAT
t TIME HAS WROUGHT
Who Would Think, For Iaataaeti,
That the Name Thomas Whltehon
Originally Indicated "Tkomu at
the Slarn of the White Horaet"
Considering the surprising changes
that many uumes have undergone, sayi
Miss Laura Alton Payne In the Inde
pendent, the almost universal lack of
knowledge concerning their origin la
not to be wondered nt. What Is there
In 'Teter Snooks" lo suggest to tha
uninitiated that originally it was 'Te
ter at the Seven Oaks?" Though
"Thomas Whitehorse" suggests th
American Indian custom In names,
originally it was "Thomas ut the White
Horse," or "Thomas at the Sign of the
White Horse" (a tavern). Sidney Is a
corruptlou of St. Denys, Sinclair of lt
Clair, Seymour of St. Maur, Janeway
of Genoa, Curtis of vourteous," Arml
tage of "hermitage," Spark of Sparrow
hawk. Emerson and America had the
same origin Almeric, an old Norman
name, Amerigo being the Italianized
form.
Names, like things, are not alwayi
what they seem. Beers and Berry are
not "beers" and "berry," but a corrup
tion of "borough," often written
bury" and "beiy."
In the beginning a single personal
name sufficed. For awhile no two per
sons bore the same name, but as a
stock of names accumulated repeti
tions became common, and as the pop
ulation of the world Increased distinc
tive names became necessary; hence
we read of John the Baptist and John
the Disciple, Darius Ilystaspls and Al
exander the Great, Joshua, son of Nun,
and Simon Barjouas "Simon, son of
Jonas."
Surnames were first used In France,
becoming general there during the lat
ter part of the tenth or the fore part of
the eleventh century. They were used
hereditarily to some extent, however,
prior to that time. They were Intro
duced into England at the Norman
conquest In the year 1060, but It re
quired two or three centuries to estab
lish the body of our nomenclature on
a fixed basis. During that time sur
names became general throughout the
British Isles except In Wales, in some
parts of which they are unknown to
this day.
Surnames are now general In all
civilized countries, I believe, except
Turkey. In England alone there are
from 40.000 to 50,000 existing sur
names.
Surnames have been drawn from ev
ery available source personal names,
location, occupation, deeds of prowess,
mental, moral and physical attributes,
terms of relationship, the human body,
farm and household articles, buildings,
foods and drinks, modes of travel, na
tions and laws, customs and religions,
geographical terms, weather and sea
sons, months and days, measures and
values, the joys and ills of life, the
animal, mineral and vegetable king'
dom and even from the kingdom of
heaven. The use of nicknames and
compound terms gave an almost In
exhaustible source. Even oaths be
came embodied, as in Pardoe, from par
Dieu.
In most countries It is customary
for the wife to take her husband's
name, but in some European countries
it is not unusual for the husband to
append the wife's name, particularly
when it is more honorable than bis
own. Hyphenated names and the
wife's retention of her maiden name
for a middle name are customs grow
ing in favor in the United States and
Great Britain.
Among the earliest names Introduced
by the conquest were found SerU Drew,
Bryce, Harvey. Arnold ("ern"-agle),
Albred (now Known as Albert and AH-
brleht). Aluieric. Ingelram, Ebrardus
(Bverard). Warln (Guerin, now War
ren). Ivo. Hamon (Hammond), and
Payn (originally Pagan). After their
adoption as surnames the most of these
became obsolete as personal names.
The most popular personal names
since the Domesday Book recorded
them have been John and William, bat
their derivatives are too numerous to
mention here. Koaer. Bobert and Btea-
ard took a double nickname In H and
r: benee Hodee and Dodge. Hobbs
and Dobbs, Hicks and Dicks, with the
rougher forms of the last-Hlggs and
Dlggs, and even Hitch, giving rise to
Dickens, Hitchcock and Hlgglnson.
Diminutive and other affixes served
an Important part In the origin of sur
names from personal names. The Anglo-Saxon
"kin" and "cock" and "Ing"
are represented in Jenkins, "little
John;" Hitchcock, "little Richard."
Rstaminr "little Brown:" the
Norman "of and "et," In Eliot, "little
Ellas," and Emmet, "little Emma"
(sometimes "lor and "let;" Hamlet,
"little Hamon"); the French "on" and
"en" in Marion and Dickens.
Many prefixes were used. The Celtic
"Mac" or "M" of the Scotch; "Mc" of
the Irish; "Map," "Ap," or "P" of the
Welsh, and the Norman "Fiti" (Latin
Ills), signify "son" or "son of," and the
Irish "O," "grandson of."
A fair knowledge of English nomen
rlnture. declares Miss Payne, gives a
fair knowledge of English history,
closely are the two Interwoven.
Seattle Will Text Liquid Asphalt.
' A California firm, represented by P.
W. Smith, of this citywlll be given an
opportunity to ii,ttk a demonstration
of the efficiency tf "liquid asphalt,"
the sale of which tbey are promoting,
says the News. Tbo demonstration
will boiu laying a mile of roadbed be
tween Keutou and Kenton Junction
and work will begin on it as soon as
the road has been rolled. The pro
moters claim Jtbat they are ablr to
supply the coating at $1,100 per mile
after the road has been treated with a
thin coating of gravel and compactly
rolled. The making of n macadam
roadbed under the same oireumttancea
coats about 13,000 per mile after the
road baa been rolled, making a saving
ot about 12,000 per mile to the county
providing the asphalt is what its
agents claim it to be.
It is said that the new paving ma
terial has been found to be a superior
article for paving, being used on
roads where the heaviest traUJo is car
ried on. It is necessary to give the
roadbed a treatment of liquid asphalt
every year at an average cost ot $75
per mile, in order to keep the road in
good shape.
I fie test is to do ntaae on i ne non-
ton road without first laying a coat
of gravel. Seattle News.
FACTS UT NATURE.
As Mam Jones Seel It.
Sam Jones save: " ft hen God gives
a man wife and six children He has
lnne a great deal for a fellow. But
whan He has siven him a society
woman and a poodle dog, He baa done
him up. These society women look up
on children, as a nuisance. I have had
some of these society women shake
bauds with me; I had as soon snaae a
dead fish tail. 1 wouldn't give one of
your sook-daroing women for all of
your socety women In the whole coun
try. Between cutting off the top of
thir dresses for the ball room and
th bottom for the bicycle, these so
ciety women will soon have no clothes
left- A man said to a society woman,
I hope I will see more oi you ane
said, 'Come to the ball touignt,'
Some people say i buouiou v upon
that way before mixed ; audience.
Your old sisters wear mgn collars,
olose around their neoke that la
niodset and oomely, but deliver me
from the sooiety women wno outton
their oollnrs around their waists."

Sot Onlr. Do We Get Inspiration
Nature, But Health aa Wall.
For people who are run-down and nerv
ous, who suffer (Mm Indigestion or dys
pepsia, headache, biliousness, or torpid
liver, coated tongue with bitter taste in
the morning aud poor appetite, it be
comes necessary to turn to sotno tonic or
strengthener which will assist Nature
and help them to get ou their feet and
put the body into it prjpor condition. It
Is becoming more and more apparent that
Nature's most vuliiable health - giving
agents are to be found In forest plants
aud roots.
Nearly forty years ago. Dr. R.V. Pierce,
now eoasultlng physician to the Invalids'
Hotl and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y., discovered that by seientiheally
extracting ar.d combining certain medici
nal principles from native roots, taken
from oar American forest, he could pro
duce a medicine which was marvelously
eflicient in curing cases of blood disorder
and liver and stomach trouble as well as
many other chronic, or lingering ail
ments. This concentrated extract of
Nature's vitality he named "Golden Med
ical Discovery." It purines the blood by
putting the stomach and liver Into
healthy condition, thereby helping the
digestion and assimilation of food which
feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak
stomach. Indigestion, torpid liver, or bil
iousness, and kindred derangements.
If you have coated tongue, with bitter
or bad taste In the morning, frequent
headaches, feel weak, easily tired, stitches
or pain In side, back gives out easily and
aches, belching of gas, constipation, or
irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat al
ternating with chilly sensations or kin-
ment of your stomach, liver and kidneys,
which the "Golden Medical Discovery
will correct more speedily and perma
nently than any other known agent. Con-
