BROKEN IN IIEALTH
After An Attack of Influenza—
Health Nov Restored.
"i amwriting to tell you what Dr,
Williams' Pink Pills have done for
me," says Mrs. J. IL Outten, Firdale,
Man, "A. few years ago I was in a bad-
ly rundown condition, so• much so that
I was subject to fainting spells Whish
would leave rue in such a condition
that I could hardly go about. Then I
was stricken with influenza, which was
epidemic at that time, and this still
further weakened me, and ,throughout
the whole winter I remained In this
condition. I was constantly taking
(loctor's medicine, but as it did not
seem to help me, my mother advised
the to try Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, and
I got a couple of boxes to start on.
When these were done I seemed to
feel an improvement and I got a fur-
ther supply to continue the treatment.
I took in• all about a dozen boxes, and
by that time 1 was in the best of
health and had gained in weight. My
faith ,in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is
now unbounded, and I keep a supply
on hand and take them occasionally if
S am not feeling quite well. I often
recommend them to others, and cannot,
praise them enough for restoring my
health,"
Dr, Williams' Pink Pelts are useful
eeiL In all cases where the blood is thin
1
and watery as their mission is to build
up and purify the blood. That is why
they give new strength and vigor after
an attack of influenza, and it is also
the reason why they are beneficial in
nervous disorders, neuralgia, rhea-
inatism and that condition geueralIy
described as all run dawn."
You can get the piIis from- your

General Foch was almost unknown

Mr. Coulson ICernahan pays tribute to
the prescience of Lord Roberts, the
"man who knew."

SAV ILLB
Variation—Sayville. .
Racial Origin -- Norman-French and
English.
Source—A locality or a given name.
In the given instance it is not pos-
sible to tell without genealogical re-
search whether this family name is de-
rived from a place name or a given
name. The chances are, however, that
I
in the majority of cases this particular
family name is the development- of a
plaoe name.
It is met with quite frequently in the
medieval English records as "de Se -
vele" and."de Sayville," and under cir-
cumstances that leave little doubt as
to its being born by 'persoul,ges in the
service of William the Conqueror or
his successor:.
But there is some doubt as to the
place referred to. It would be going
too far to say that it did not mean the
modern city ot Seville, though this
would appear unlikely. On the other
hand, it is conceivable that it could
have come from the place in Belgium
called Servilie. Yet the letter "r" is
not to be found in the earliee forms ot
the surname, and though possible, it is
not likely that it was injected at a
later period into the name of the town.
TABOR
Variation—Taber.
Source—An occupation, or an inn sign.
This family name may be a devaiep-
meat either of the word "tabourer"
(sometimes "taburer") or "tabun"
You'd probably laugh to -day if' you
should run across, such a family name
as "Basedrum•mer," but this is virtual-
ly the meaning of the name of Tabor.
The "tabur" of the medieval period
was a drum. The "taburer" was the
man who beat• the drum, and there
were many of thein, for there were
many traveling orchestras in those
days, with their reed instruments,
their six -stringed viols and their
drums.
In many instances, however, inn-
keepers and shopkeepers, be that pe-
riod when it was useless to bang let-
tered signs above their doors, owing to
the inability of most of the population
to read, used to identify their inns and
shops with pictorial signs, seizing up-
on any subject or combination of sub-
jects for illustration, in order to dis-
tinguish his plate from those of his
neighbors, It was natural that the
drum should often be used for such an
illustration, and it was quite common
to shorten suck a name as "William at
the Ta.bur" into simply "William Ta-
bor,"
bad his own opinion of Foch. Speak,
lug on July 29, 1908, he said:
"They refuse to believe m,e, and we
sleep under a false security, for I do
not hesitate to affirm that we shall
have a frightful war in Europe, and
that England and France will have the
hardest experience of their existence.
They will in fact see defeat very near,
but the war will finally be won by the
genius of a French general named Fer-
dinand Foch, professor at the military
school at Paris."
Thus almost exactly six years be-
fore the war Lord Roberts predioted
precisely what would happen in the

One of the tallest men alive to -day,
possibIy the tallest, is Armand Bren-
ner, who hails from the Jura Moun-
tains. He is 7ft. 55ein. in height, and
his stretch from finger-tip to finger-tip
is close on 8ft., while, as his boots are
17%in. long, his patronage is eagerly
sought by the bootmahers in his lo-
cality.
Bronner was born in 1890, and only
ceased to grow when he was thirty
years of age. It is a remarkable fact
that he only weighed 4 lib. when born.
His great height is not shared by any
other member of his family, the tallest
being 5ft: 9in.
Unlike most giants, who outgrow
their strength, Bronner is exceedingly
strong, and can carry a weight of near-
ly half a ton with easy;. His health is

No. 10 Downing Street has been the
official residence of British Prime
Ministers for nearly two hundred
years. It is well called "the centre of
the British Empire," for many fateful
decisions have been made within its
walls.
Few people are aware that Downing
Street is named after a man named
George Downing, who went to America
at the age of fifteen, afterwards re-
turning and entering Parliament. He
become a baronet, and was a great
favorite of Charles II., who gave him
the land In Whitehall upon which he
built the famous street.
Sir Robert Walpole was the first
Prime Minister to occupy -No. 10. This
was in 1731, and since that time most
of his successors have lived there.
