JANET
JANET, sometimes spelled Janette,
bears no relationship to Jane,
paradoxical as it may seem. As early
as the Thirteenth century, Geneta ap
peared as a feminine proper name,
long, before Jane, Joan, or Johanna
were known to us. In the Fourteenth
and Fifteenth centuries, Gennet made
her appearance and by a process of
evolution there came Janeta, Ja
nette and finally 'anet, though the
latter is by far the most modern form
of the name.
History, which records innumerable
instances of Janet and her derivatives
being used with extreme popularity
in those early times, likewise chroni
cles the amusing and almost, unbe
lievable story of one Willelmus
Richardson and his wife Christiana
Who had a family of eighteen children
and became so destitute for names for
this extraordinary brood that they had
two Johannes, two Willelmuses, two
Christinas, and three Janets. Strange
to relate, this was not an unusual cus
tom of duplication in those days.
Genida was an old Frankisli form
of Janet which was exceedingly popu
lar, indeed, it is thought to be so direct
a forerunner as to be conclusive proof
that Janet sprang from it and from
Geneta —not from any form of John.
Genetia is another early form that ap
pears in old Frankish chronicles. Un
doubtedly Janet was left behind in
France and became confused with
Jean, hence erroneous modepi belief
that the two names are interchange
able. Like its offspring Jessie, Janet
means “grace of the Lord.”
Her tallsmanic stone is onyx, which
unless it has some mystic significance
for the wearer as in this instance,
should be. avoided, since it cools the
ardor of love, provokes discord and
separates lovers. Worn by one who
has a mystic right to -it, a happy mar
riage is promised. Monday is Janet’s
lucky day and six her lucky number,
An unforgettable poem was written
by an early poet to “Janette”:
•*Your eye* had a swimming glory, Ja
nette,
Revealing the old dear story—my pet,
They were grey, „with that chastened
tinge of the sky,
When the trout leaps quickest to seek the
fly,
And they matched with your golden hair—
my pet.”

j THE ROMANCE OF WORDS j
“HUMBLE PIE”
THE expression “to eat humble t i
pie”—meaning to humiliate • j
or abase oneself or to make an | [
abject apology for a fault com- f !
i rnltted —dates back to the days j j
; of medieval England, when the j
forests of die nobles were well ,
stocked with deer and venison j j
pie was a distinctly common ar- j
tide of diet. J
The refuse of the deer, togeth- t j
er with the other portions of the |
animal which were considered ?
unfit tor the consumption of the !
nobility, were known as the “urn- j
bles” and were given to the poor, j
who, in turn, made pies of them J
in imitation of their masters in f
the castle. “Umble-ple” there- •
fore became suggestive of pov- !
erty, of the acceptance of favors ?
and was later applied to degre- j
datlons of other kinds in a meta- t j
phorlcal sense. In time, pos- !
sibly through the Cockney habit T
of using h’s where they don’t be- «
long, the word “umble” became !
“humble” and, as such, is in gen- l
eral use today—though the vast $
majority of people would see no t
connection between it and the f ;
refuse left after cleaning the car- f
cass of a deer. j

Cheam was once a delightful vil
lage in Surrey*; today It Is fast becom
ing a suburb of London. But it still
has some respect for the days when it
was simply a decorative feature on a
beautiful countryside. When it was
found that Cheam’s beautiful Four
teenth century cottage was in the way
of the road being widened, Cheam did
not say either “Down with the cot
, tnge” or “Let the motorcars go round
, another way.” It simply decided to put
tlie house on rollers and move it back
a little way, as was done a few years
ago with Trinity house, in the old
cathedral city of Worcester. Every
body gains, the motorist by having a
wider road, and artistic folk by con
templation of a tine specimen of Four
teenth century architecture; while
Cheam should be happy in having en
tered a practical protest against an
act of vandalism.—Christian Science
Monitor.
The Last Straw.
It had been a trying day and Ray
mond’s father was rather Irritable. He
stood for a few questions from the
youngster, but when the latter asked
what caused the desert of Sahara, ho
laid down his paper and answered:
“I guess it formed when the Israelites
lost their sand. And if you don’t quit
asking me so many questions I’ll see
your mother puts you to bed before I
get home hereafter.”
“But, pa,” came the question, "how
can you see her put me to bed if she
puts me to. bed before you get home?”
And that question was Raymond's last
—for that evening.—Boston Tran
script.
In Different Classes.
A visitor in an Australian home in
quired of his host’s little son, “Do you
go to school now?”
“Yes, sir.”
“And what do you learn —reading,
writing, sums?”
“Oli, yes, and I learn religion, too.”
“Religion?”
“Yes. I learn the little religion
which teaches that we all come from
Adam. But my older brother is in a
higher class; he learns the big religion
and that teaches that we all come
from monkeys.”—Boston Transcript.
Wonder of Small Things.
The greatness of our life depends
on so little! In the midst of the
humblest incidents of ordinary days,
the verse of a poet may suddenly re
veal to us something stupendous. No
solemn word has been spoken, and
we feel that nothing has been called
forth; and yet, why has un ineffable
face beckoned to us from behind an old
man’s fears? Or why does a vast
night, starred with angels, extend over
the smile of a child?—Maeterlinck.
A Sign.
“I think that small boy of ours is
going to be a poet.”
“That so? Why?”
“He never wants to have his hair
cut.”
