Balance ou hand .flo8d 75 ilU 25 APROPOS OF PET NAMES. Aproios of jHt names among ; inar l ied folk, there Is one masculine Chris tian name that no woman will ever call her husband by,' says the New York Evening Sun. What name this Is, It Isn't .uoi-essary to ssty lieii'. In fact it wouldn't 1k fair to emphasise the prejudice against it. Every man answering to the name is awanv of woman's dislike to It. and every woman, whose hnsliud lsars the name kuows bow site will nickname him and miscall him ami all but re f.'hrlsteu him anything sooner than let his disliked real name or any. or Its diminutives pass her lips. Unsenti mental though she may Im.by nature, she will ."dear", him to the end of his days and upon all occasions, unsuita ble as well as suitable, rather than call him by the one proHr name all women dislike. It is interesting to note' the Ingenuity some women dis play iu evading the use of this- name. One ghi w ho married a man so chris tened always ealh-d tier husband "Judge," the man being an army mau who had never even presided at a court-martial. Another hiifbaml' of this name was invariably known to his wife as "Nebuchadnezzar" not liiat Nbueiiadneracar lx Hitch a pretty name, dear knows, Imt it Isn't under the bah like the other 'one. Such a prejudice is wholly. Irrational. The name itsHf Is a good,, safe, sound a IM'Mation. having irfeuty of " historic background aisl many lib-rary nssK-iu-lions. It dos not ofieiid soiuroiisly. So far as known men have no particu lar olih-etlon o It. Yet among women the prejudice, is certainly. If tacitly, very strong. Considering that It's among wonrcii. fsrhniw the r-marka-We thing, alter -nil, is not that such an Irrational sentiment sliould exist, but that any sentiment should be felt wo unanimously.
