Why is a Gratuity Called
a Tip?
According to an old English tradi
tion, .there was a certain’ shrewd inn
keeper who devised a scheme whereby
he could pay his servants a minimum
wage and still keep them satisfied and
happy to render good service to his
patrons. He installed a wooden box
with a slot in the top, find on the faco
of the container he painted the three
words:
To Insure Promptness.
The guests soon grasped the idea
and dix)pped small coins in the box
when paying their bills'. It was ex
plained that this Constituted a fund
which was divided among the servants
each week, so that each one felt satis-
fled. The guests soon, fell into the
habit of calling this receptacle the
“T. I. P.” box, forming the word “tip”
from tho capitalized initials of the
three words. At the present day in
many small hotels and restaurants in
Europe there are similar boxes, al
though without their purpose printed
thereon, placed near the cashier’s
desk. This is a clever way of hinting,
to patrons that if they have not al
ready squared themselves with those
.who served, they may still have this op-
^prtunity. Then, too, in some of the
foreign restaurants in this country, it
is stated op. the menu that 10 per cent,
of the check will bo added, "to-insure
Service,” all of which harks back to
tho old English innkeeper and 'his ’’Tip
Box” significantly labeled’; ..
To Insure Promptness.'

der that a 'daily ration of one half

may be given, each, child, in thOse re

cal inspection of the school children
at Charlebois, Sturgeon Landing and
Cumberland House has revealed a
startling amount of general malnutri
tion among them with a correspond
ingly great tendency to .the wasting )
diseases'. It was found that the diet
of the average family among the peo

of native extraction, consists of hard
bannocks, dried fish and tea and that
this food- is so greatly lacking in the
necessary constituents for growing
children that their teeth and general
condition suffer deterioration and'their

With the facts before them the
Junior Red Cross Society of the pro

tooth brushes provided for every

GAINS INSPIRATION AT BANFF
Rudolph Friml, famous Austrian composer, has gone to Ban® to gain
inspiration for the score of the “Squaw Man,” a new musical comedy upon
Which he is at present working. “Rose Marie,” one of Friml’s most recent
successes, has popularized this young composer with the musical and theatri
cal world. The “Squaw Man” became widely popular through the interpre
tation of the actor, William Fa versham.'
In the accompanying photograph Mr. Friml is shown fingering a small
keyboard. It is an Invention of his own and upon it he works out many of
his compositions, while travelling overland where a piano is not available.
An Airplane Legend.
Some of the most thrilling results
which have been brought to light in
the deciphering of ancient .manu
scripts in the various libraries of Eur^
ope, Great Britain, and Ireland are
those which contain romantic stories
which indicate a. foreshadowing of
discoveries which we look upon as al
together the result of material de
velopments pertaining to the present
■ era.
One of lie most curious of those is
the tale'of''he appearance of an air
plane, the account of which was writ
ten- between the years 944 and 956
A.D., during the reign of an Irish king
named Congalach. The authenticity
of the date of the manuscript is be
yond question, and the description is
as follows:
Congalach reigned’ in Meath—and
was evidently given to farming pur
suits, for the.story goes on to tell of
his one day attending a fair at a place
now called. Tefltown, '.on the Meath
Blackwater, raidway- between the
towns of Navan and Kells. While he
was inspecting horses, for which that
county is famous-, a sound in the sky
caused him, and all the people, to look
up, and they beheld a- large ship float
ing far above them., It appeared to be
fully equipped with a numerous-, and
evidently ihte'lligent crew. After a
time, during which the people in the
fair gazed in silent wonder at the
phenomenon, the huge vessel gradual
ly floated toward some clouds ■ into
which it entered, and the awe-struck
crowds saw _ it no more. This same
story is told with slight variations by
the Norse documents, named Kongs
Skuggio.
Yet another tale ''is told in one of
these Irish legends, 'in, which the
writei' prophesies that a. time will
come when carriages without horses
will run through the streets of Jers-
salem.
These stories are, of course, mere
legends of imagination, t but it is in
teresting to find them noted in docu
ments of unbounded aniuity, and in
local as well as in ancient ruins and
sagas; also that such shadows of the
actualities of the twentieth century
should have emanated from the
Noughts of people in the tenth.
It would be interesting to under
sand the mental capacities, and the
outlook of the persons who inspired
such tales; and who thought them of
sufficient importance to have them re
corded on vellum.

Should Enrich Their Blood by
Using Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills.
ia
to
There are conditions of health
which no particular organ appears
be at fault, yet the patient is miser
able and unable to pursue the activi
ties of daily life with vigor and en
joyment. " The remedy needed is a
medicine that will benefit the whole
system rather than a part. The blood
reaches every" part of the body and
an improvement in its quality is quick
ly followed by an improvement in the
whole system. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
make a prompt and visible improve
ment in the blood, and bring new
health and strength to ailing people.
The value of Dr. Williams’ Pink PillS
in cases of this kind is proved by the
following statement: Mrs. W. F. Nash,
R. R. No. 1, Bellamy, Ont., writing on
behalf of her husband says: “For' the
past two summers my husband has
taken Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills with
much success. He was in a weak con
dition, did not sleep well at night, tired
all the time, with popr appetite. The
result was he got Very thin. He de
cided to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
and by the time he had taken three
boxes he was feeling and looking so
much better that it was very notice
able that the pills were all they were
recommended to- be. We feel very
grateful and advise the use of the pills
in all-cases of weakness.”
These pills ma.y be had from all
dealers in medicine, Or by' mail, post
paid, at 50c a box from The Dr. Wil

Mothers as Teachers of
Pre-School Music.
Mothers of to-day are taking their
place as educators in a system of pre
school music training recently inaug
urated. Special classes for training
mothers to share in ’the musical in
struction of their children have been
successfully introduced. In these
classes it is recognized that expres
sion and appreciation through listen
ing must come first with the child, but
that this should be followed closely by
expression through bodily movement,
the voice in singing, and the hands in
playing the piano.
A statement of the principle under
lying this new instruction is contain
ed in the pamphlet through quotations
from Rose Ella Cunningham, who has
developed such a program in Massa
chusetts. She says:
“To begin to instill the principles of
rhythm in children while they are yet
infants is not to begin a whit too soon.
To teach children to sing as they learn
to speak is not impossible, and child
ren so taught in their first year pro
gress rapidly until the time they en
ter the first grade in school, when
^teachers welcome them as a distinct
addition to their classes because of
their unusual musical grounding.
“We need look back, I think, only
upon our own days’ of childish music
lessons to know that children would
far rather go from their music teach-,
ers and their lessons back to a home
where their music study is fully under
stood and where they receive explicit
encouragement based on the actual fin
ger exercises and rudimentary les
sons in harmony, than to go into the
parental vacuum ■ which was our lot,
when there, was no home interest in
our musical studies, no understanding
and comradeship in the study.”
Winter is a dangerous season for
the little one®, The days are change
able—one bright, the next eold and
stormy, that the mother is afraid to
take the children out for the fresh
air and exercise they need so much.
In consequence they are often cooped
up in overheated', badly ventilated
rooms and are soon seized with colds
or grippe. What is needed to keep
the little ones well is Baby’s Own
Tablets. They will regulate the
stomach and bowels and drive out
colds, and through their use the baby
will be able to get over the winter
season in perfect safety.
In using Baby’s Own Tablets the
mother has an absolute guarantee that
she is giving her precious little ones
something that is absolutely safe and
something that cannot possibly do
harm to even the newborn babe as the
Tablets contain not one particle of
opiates or other dangerous drug. They
are sold by medicine dealers or at 25
