Source â€" A given name. Though you would not think so to look at them, the name of Jenninge and the foregoing variations are simp- ly one classiflcatlon of the innumer- able host of family names which have developed from that most common of all given names, John. From its original Hebrew form of Jehohanan. the name of John has de- veloped Into nearly every sort of sound around which the human tongue can twist, through pagMt am- «M. W Christian races. IndMd, ft Is M4 that \iie name nf Hanalb^ fh egiuKt Carthreiaian warrior i Tim i]|pMtii ttp Alps with his elephants lend nearly smashed ancient Rome, was simply a variation of John. Carthage was fouad^"! by Phoenicians, who came firom the coast near Palestine. Bat in England the name of John «UM to he spelled in many different .««jHi according, to the linguistic ten- .ABBdes of individual localities. It is 'fo<md as Jon, Jan and Jen, among other forms too numerous to mention. Ten->in (little Jen) was a very com- non development from the latter, 'from wUch the surname of "Jenkin's •on," or .Jenkinson was derived quite aoraalirr being shortened in the QOitr>e ot time into the variations lifted. Where the name Jennings traces back to Ireland it was formerly Mac^honeen (descendants of John), changed to the English form under the pressure of English laws which at various times In various sections of that country forbade the use of native family names.

Cleveland and Its variations trace ! back to an old Anglo-Saxon geographi- cally descriptive term, as do Grover and Its variations. The old word was "clough." It meant a cleft or fissure between hills '. in those days and its modern use as I "cliff" was probably a secondary mean- '. Ing. t Tk* variations, Cllve, Cliff and [Cleva, •( course, are developments of 1 the ortctaMl spelling, and are useful |te 4atmn^aine in what general sec- tions of England a family may have lived at various periods. It is only In ' very modem times that spelling has ! been standardized. Throughout the I middle agea people spelled very much : as they pronounced, and there were I marked differences in pronunciation I tendencies in the different parts of I England. Originally such names as I Clive, Cliff and Cleve were written "Atte Clive (at-the-clifi), Atte Cliff and ! Atte Cleve, or at earlier periods, wh°n i French was used more commonly and ; was the official lancuage, "de la Cllve" I (of the cliff). j Cleveland, as a family name, gives a I little more definite information as to the origin of families bearing It, which must have come from a section of Yorkshire known by that name, and of which the city of Middlesborough is the capital.

He is more or less confined to stuffy, badly ventilated rooms. It is so often stormy that the mother does not get him out in the fresh air as often as she should. He catches colds which rack his little system; his stom- ach and bowels get out of order and he becomes peevish and cross. To guard against this the, mother should keep a box of Baby's "bwn Tablets in the house. They regulate the stomach and bowels, and break up colds. The new sales tax will not increase the price of Baby's Own Tablets, as the company pays the tax. You can still obtain the Tablets through any medi- cine dealer at 25 cents a box, or by mail post paid from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. What a Knot is Not. The meaning of a sailor's "knot," like an ordinary knot, requires some unravelling. A "landlubber" would say that a steamship is steaming at "twenty-five knot an hour," but a sailor would simp- ly say "twenty-five knots." The latter Is correct. A knot is not a distance, but a speed. The word "speed" com- bines distance and time, a" sailor call- ing the speed of a ship while passing over a sea mile, about 6,0S0 feet or 1 1-S land miles, one "knot." The word "knot" is very old. In ancient days seamen found out the speed of their vessel by means of a "log line." This was a piece of wood, to which was attached a long line knotted at regular intervals. The log was thrown overboard, and a sand- glass on board was allowed to run down. It was then seen how many knots had been paid out. If fifteen, then the ship was travelling at fifteen knots; if twelve, at twelve knots, and so on. « His Request. Judge â€" "Have you anything further to say?"

Wkea peovle tell one another hov taay tliey u* or have~been, althougii they are likely to lament the "busy- ness," they usually regard It as credit- able. And yet to be busy Is not neces- sarily to be engaged in anything worth while. Being busy and working are by no means synonymous. The dis- paraging expression "a busybody" arose from a perception of that fact. People who keep themselves pretty constantly occupied with work have no time or Inclination for mischief- making, yet people can busy them- selves in making mischief. They can busy themselves too in ways that do no special harm to others and that are yet futile and frivolous. A great many people, for example, are busy perform- ing social acts and rites that have no particular value. Being busy in the sense of being constantly occupied with the little complications in the web of life Is a harassing and discouraging form of activity, says a writer in Youth's Com- panion. Yet nowadays people give liiore time and effort to the attempt to deal with such complications than ever before â€" because the complica- tions are more numerous and intri- cate. The persons who are busy most of the time on productive. Interesting work of some kind, and who do not allow the element of bus.vness to in- vade their hours of recreation and re- laxation, have a sound philosophy of life and are living in accordance with It.

The proposal of the U.S. navy to fly to the Pole in the Shenandoah, Uncle Sam's biggest airship, includes the ea- 1 tablishment of an air base in Alaska j from which the start would be made. ; It is unlikely that a special hangar for [ the big ship would be built there, and ' it is much more probable mooring : masts would be utilized to hold the ; Shenandoah between flights. Such ! mast salready are in use at the Lake- â-  hurst, N.J., naval station. j The usual airship mooring mast is , about 200 feet high and is of steel, I firmly based in concrete. The nose of the ship is made fast by cables to a swivel arrangement set in the head of the mast. This swivel, moving freely, i permits the flying craft to swing to â-  the wind, much as a ship swings to its I anchor in a tideway. When the air- i ship Is to be moored she noses down toward the mast, drops her cable to the ground, and this in turn Is made fast to the cable on the mast swivel. The slack Is then taken up by a motor driven winch on the ground. After being secured to the mast it is found the airship rides better in the wind if ballast is cast out.
