Source—A place name. Welsh family names are not always borne by those of Welsh blood, though it is a fairly safe assumption that .where a Welsh family name is found there also you will find at least a por- tion of Welsh blood. It was quite possible, however, in the period of family name formation that a Norman ora Saxon Englishman,' having settled in some section of Wales, would most naturally find him- self tagged with a surname indicative of a Welsh place name, inasmuch as the place names all about .him would be Welsh. And it is true that an ex- ceptionally large number of English have settled in Wales. The family name of Gower, there- fore, is one of those which might be borne by Englishmen as well as those of pure Welsh extraction. It is simply the name of a place in Glamarganshire, and according to the Welsh spelling it is not Gower but "Gwyr," though the pronunciation is about the same. The meaning of the name is an inclosed, a round or an en- circled place. In this instance the place is virtually encircled by the sea and certain rivers and streams. ARGYLE. Racial Origin—Scottish. Source—A locality. You will have no difficulty whatever in guessing the source of this family name if you are at all familiar with the geography of the British Isles, for 'leu will recognize it as an extensive shire on the west coast of Scotland. If you bear the fancily name, the chances are in favor of your ancestry on the paternal side tracing back through the male line of Gaelic origin, for the name of Argyle is simply the Modern form of "Ears Glraidheal," which means the land of the Western Gael, and which is referred to by Grant as "the breeding place of the Gael." The family name, however, while Scottish in the sense that it is the name of an ancient Scottish shire, is English in its method of formation. For the Gaels of Scotland, like those of Ireland, nearly always formed their family names from given navies or from clan names, and such names as this, when found among them, indicate the presence of English influence. THANKFUL MOTHERS Thousands of mothers throughout Canada -many of diem your neighbors —speak with thankfulness concerning the use of Baby's Own Tablets. Onee they have used the Tablets for their lit- tle ones they would use nothing else. The Tablets are an absolutely safe medicine for even the youngest baby, beings, guaranteed by a government analyst to contain neither opiates nor narcotics or other harmful drugs. Con- cerning them Mrs. David MCRobb, Divide, Sask., says:—"I have used Baby's Own Tablets and have found them so satisfactory I would not be without them." The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. A Dreadful Possibility.

The features of the driver were impressed on his mem- ory when he awoke. A day or two later he was on the point of entering a lift at an hotel, when he recognized the lift attendant as the driver of the hearse he had seen in his dream. He stepped back and the lift -as- cended without him. As it neared the top something broke. It crashed to th'e bottom, killing everyone in it. Lard Roberts recorded a remarkable dream warning. In October, 1853, his father, to whom he was acting as A.D.,- C., at Peshawar, had issued invitations for a dance. Two days before it was to take place he was silent and despondent during breakfast, and eventually told his son he had } had an unpleasant dream, which has visited him several times before, and had always been followed by the death of a near relative. As the day ware on his depression grew and he wanted to put off the dance. His son dissuaded him., but that night the dream returned and the dance was postponed. "The next morn- ing." wrote Lord Roberts, "the post brought news' of the sudden death at Lahore of the half-sister with whom I" had stayed en my way to Peshawar." • One night in November, 1850, Tenny- son dreamt that Prince Albert, the Prince; Consort, Caine to his bed ide and kissed him, whereupon he remark -1 ed to himself in his sleep: "Very kind, but very German!" Next morning cameQueen Victoria's ' letter offering hien the position of Poet! Lauresate, an'offer prompted, as he dis- covered, by Prince Albert's high opini- on of "In Memoriam."

Yesterday, my child, a °Has gone into our memories—or THESE SYMPTOMS • If You Have, You Are in Need of a Tonic Medicine. „Are you pale and weak, easily tired and out of breath on slight exertion? Are you nervous? Is your sleep dis- turbed? Do you wake up in the morn- ing feeling as tired as when you went to bed? Is your appetite poor, your digestion weak, and do you have pains after eating? If you have any of these symptoms you need a tonic, and in the realm of medicine there is no better tonic than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which enrich the blood, restore shattered nerve:. and bring the glow of health to pale cheeks. The value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is shown by the case of Mr. Horace CuphilI, Woodward's Cove, N.B., who says:—"The first indication that my general health was not good was a shortness of breath after the least exertion. Then my appetite be- gan to fail, and after eating it seemed as if there was a lunip in my stomach, I grew so weak that I could not walk a hundred yards without resting. Then I was taken with a numbness all over my body and was in a sad plight. I was under a doctor's care, but as I was not getting better, I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The first few boxes did not seem to help me but my wife asked me to continue their use and I got four boxes more, Before these were gone I could eat a fair meal, the numbness was leaving me and I was feeling much better in every way. I took the pills for a while long- er, and felt that I was again a well man. I,s`till take the pills occasionally, but have had no return of the old trouble." You can get these pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont, Saving Migrating Birds. A Dutch ornithologist has hit upon the simple plan of having perches placed under the shutters to save migrating birds from being killed by daslbing themselves against' the lenses of the great lanterns of 'lighthouses, when attracted and confused by the glare. Perches for thirty thousand birds have been set up, and at Bran- daris. Light on the island of Terschel- ling twenty thousand birds have been seen perching on thein.
