Most people know that the original Sabbath Day of the Fifth Command- ment corresponds to our Saturday, the seventh day of the week. The early Christians, however, made the following day the sacred day of the week, calling it the Lord's Day, be- cause it was an the morning after the Jewish Sabbath that Christ rose from the dead. It is a curious fact that there is :quite an important "Sunday," so to speak, for every day of the week. In addition to the two mentioned already Monday is the Greek Sabbath, Tues 'day the Persian, Wednesday the As- syrian, Thursday the Egyptian, and 'Friday the Turkish. WIEN BABY IS ILL When the baby is 111; when he cries 'a great deal and no amount of atten- tion or petting makes him happy, Baby's Own Tablets should be given him without delay. The Tablets are a mild but thorough laxative which re- gulate the bowels and sweeten the stomach and thus drive out constipa- tion and indigestion; break up colds and simple fevers and make teething easy. They are absolutely guaranteed to be free from opiates and narcotics 'and can be given to even the new-born babe with perfect safety and always ;with beneficial results. The Tablets rare sold by medicine dealers or by 'mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Btockvillo, Ont. Joel nded the Petition.

The little French town of Stress- bourg has been made world famous through its manufacture of goose -liver pies, or "pate de foie grass' This de- licacy is said to have been invented in the latter part of the eighteenth century by a famous chef, Clause, em- ployed by the Marechal de Contades, one time Governor of Alsace. There are about twenty-five manufacturers in Strasbourg, about ten of whom are of commercial importance. The manu- facturers do not concern themselves with the raising of geese, these being supplied by the farmers. Some of the families in this section of France have beenengaged in raising geese for generations and the numerous flocks of geese in the roadways are often- times a hinderance to pedestrians. It is necessary that the liver of a goose reach its maximum size before being used for pies, and in the autumn the farmers select the larger birds, place them in individual boxes, and feed them on paste of Dorn, cooked and salted. They are given no exer- cise unless a case et overfeeding is noted, then they are released and al- lowd to run about for a day or two. When the geese are fat enongh and their livers are estimated to have reached their maximum size, they are killed. An ordinary liver weighs about one and one-half pounds and the farmer receives approximately $1.25 a pound. The nerves and veins, are extracted from the liver and It is spiced, placed in cans or jars with truffles, a species of mushrooms, and baked. The can is then sealed and sterilized. GREEN TEA IMPORTS LARGER. Statistics from Ottawa show that in 1923 653,977 pounds more Green Tea were brought into Canada than in 1921, and 906,728 pounds more than in 1922. The reason given is that the fine quality Green Teas of India and Ceylon have displaced the inferior Japan and China Greens which, due to their low price, were imported heavily some years ago. Salads Tea Company is the largest importer of India and Ceylon Green Teas. Delights.

TOO JIANY 11011E CARES One Reason Why So Many Wo- men Aire Weak and Run -Down. The work of the woman in the home makes greater demands on her vitali- ty than men realize, and there is al- ways something mbre to do. No won- der women's backs ache, and their nerves are worn out. No wonder why they get depressed and irritable, suf- fer from headaches, and always feel out of sorts. But of course all women are not like that. What is the differ- ence? A woman with plenty of healthy red blood in her veins finds work in the home easy; her vitality is at par. This points the' way to health in women who feel run down and depressed. Make new rich blood. You can do it with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These 'pills have the marvellous property of building up the blood and toning up the nerves. That is proved by the case of Mrs. H. Eppinger, Scott Street, Vancouver, B.C., who says:—"Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills brought back my health and strength and restored my nerves to normal condition after other medicines had failed, It was af- ter the birth of my second child that I became so anaemic and nervous that I thought I would lose my mind as well as my strength. I tried several medicines, but got no relief until 1 was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink P1115. After using a few boxes of these I could see a change. I felt stronger; my appetite was better, I slept better, and my nerves were stronger. I continued the use of the pills for some time, and again found myself a well woman, and I can sin- cerely say that my health• has since been the best. I can cheerfully re- commend the pills to all weak, run down women." You caneget these pills from your druggist, or by mail at 60 cents a box from The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. s• Surnames and Their Origin LANGLEY. Variations -- Lang, Langhern, Lang - shave Langworthy, Longworth, Lang- lois, Long. Racial Origin—English, also French. Source—Localities, also a nationality, also a, personal peculiarity. "Lang" is a variation of the word "long." It is to -day in widespread use colloquially and in the northern sec- tions of England and in Scottish low- lands. In the Middle Ages •a man often earned the nickname of 'Long" or "Lang," because of great height and spare build, and in many cases this nickname has developed into a family name. The name of Longhorn is just what it seems, "long -horn." Long -horns were musical instruments quite com- mon in the Middle Ages. Langley was a name originally des- criptive of locality in which the bear- er lived. It means "long -lea" or "long - meadow." Old instances are found of "John de Langeleye" and "de Lang- leghe." A "schaw" was an enclosure or shel- ter, usually for game; hence the name Langshaw meant originally "of the Long Game -Preserve." A "worth" was a farmstead, or ward- ed place. Hence the names Long- worth and Langworthy mean literally "Long Farm," Langlois is truly a French name, meaning "the Englishman," and un- doubtedly in some cases it has been anglicized into Langley. Langley is also derived in many cases from the older Norman-French "L'-Aangleys" or "Lengleyse," with the same meaning. Lang also is met with as a shorten- ed and anglicized form of the Scottish Highland (Gaelic) clan name of O'Loy- nachan. T1E3BOTT. Variations—Tibbot, Tebbott, Tibbald, Tibbie, Tipson, Tibbat, Tibbotson. Racial Origin—English. Source—A given name. Give yourself three guesses as to the given name from which these par- ticular family names have been evol- ved. Yes, it's a name by no means uncommon to -clay, even tbough it may not be as widespread as John or Wil- liam. Nevertheless, you'll probably ask for another three guesses or give it up without trying. The name is Theobald. There are some interesting points to be noted about Theobold as a given name as well as a family name, In the first place it is not Greek, as you might suppose from the "theo." In the second place, this syllable does not mean "God," as it does in the name of Theodore. The name is of ancient Teutonic origin, from "theod," meaning "the people," and "bald,' which is the oncestor of our modern word "bold." The figurative meaning of the combination was "one fit to rule the people." Early, even before the arrival in England of the Normans, who also used the name, the Saxons had con- tracted it into "ribald." The Nor- mans made it "Thibald" and "Thi - bard," which you see, with a "th" that was pronounced like a "t," gives a sound not dissimilar from Tibbott, The variations of this family name are of particular interest as an ex- ample of the way in which vowels sometimes run riot in the progressive development of language and nomen- clature, in the latter really more than in the former,. The violence that others do to us is often Iess painful than that we put upon ourselves. The idea of Happiness is often more flattering than happiness itself. • 4•, • '• .�' },'h. ` k T o! :. • esegassisessesseekiMseileifees The mode of travel some thirty years ago was somewhat different to what it is to -day.

Radio Craze in Britain. More than 12,260 miles of aerial wire have been erected in the British Isles in the last twelve months, so much has the radio craze seized the public.

If forany reason the ail -supply tank on a motor -car engine has been allow- ed to become dry, after refilling, it is a. wise precaution to make sure the pump is working properly. Other- wise, an air lock may form at some point in the oil -supply line, preventing the pump from functioning as it should, and burned -out bearings or scored cylinders may result. Good will to others is constructive thought. It helps build us up. It is good for your body. It makes your blood ` purer, your muscles stranger, and your whole form more symmetri- cal in shape. It is the real "elixir of of life." The more of such thought you attract to you the more life will you have. You draw, then, the best elenints from all with whom you as- sociate. If you send out a contrary order of thought, you draw to you from them the poisonous and destruc- tive elements. These will hurt your body.
