Tools. "It doesn't loop much like the old home aa I remember lt," an elderly 'business ratan who had been visiting the haunts of his boyhood said to a friend. "The lawn isn't cared for, most of the trees and shrubs are deal. and the garden that Bather took so much pride in is overgrown with bur docks and brambles. The orchard is growing old like the rest of us, but there's fine fruit there still, though the trees need pruning. But the sad alert thing I saw was the old tool house. It's failing to pieces, and the rusty tools hang there—unused. Sam has had all the equipment father ever. bad to make the place atttttetiye, but he hasn't used it.

New Zealand has a native species. of opossum which wears a very beauti- ful fur. It is not at all -like the 'pos- sum that we know in this country; Many years ago it was introduced into Australia, and,finding there none of the natural enemies that preyed up- on it in its own land, it hes since to creased in numbers until it bas become' a serious pest. It is a robber of fruit trees. However, the value ot the animal for its fur is ,so great as to outweigh the damage it does in the fruit-grow- iag sections, and in view of this fact, the Australians are encouraging the increase of opossums in forest dis- tricts, Their ,skins are becoming a considerable item of export, and al- ready many of then are made up into fashionable garments for women It North America.

Minrd''a Liniment for Da Mt Surnames and Their Origin HILT, Variations -- Hull, Heftier, Hityer, Helfer, Hillman, Heiman, Heilman. Origin—English. Racist Sourer—Locality also occupation. This Is a most widespread group of tamily names, the oue most frequently met with being Till, with probably IIIIImen, Hull and Hilyer next in or- der. They are all ot theme English names, and all trace back to an old Anglo-Saxon word which liar come down to us utmost unchanged, end is In as common use to -day as it was in the reign of Alfred the Great. The word is (just what you think: it is) "11111,' But all ot the fancily names in this group have not developed from this word In the same manner. The name of Hill, as well as Hull, is in the vast majority of cases a mere contraction of the old description phrase "at the hill" or "of the hill," used to designate persons who hap- pened to dwell on or near such emi- nences. In the varied spellings of the late ldornian days, the surname oe- ants as "de la Hill." "de la Hull," "de la Retie" and "atte (at the) Belie." With the other variations another method of development is responsible for the modern names. This word "hill," or "hull" was also used figura- tively to denote a roof, and also for the verb "to roof." An abstract from an ancient document reads: "Whyt eley and red for to make crokkes (crocks) and other vessels and banned (burnt) tyyl (tile) to hele.houses, and churches. Again, Wickyffe, in the translation of one Bible passage, says: "The. schip (ship) was hilid (hiller or covered) with wavis." The • words "hilyer" and "intimate" therefore,. were .descriptive of occupa- tions, which explains why these family names, in their varied spellings are not within the old records in such forms as "Roger de Hiliyer;" "Ivo le Better.,'.' and "Rem le Hilman Rich and Red. i It is a waste . of time and money to, fight merely the signs of disease, in the long run you are probably worse off than a'rhezz you started. What is far more important is that you Should intelligently examine the various symptoms and trace the :cause, 'iii -"hen you remove the cause, health will be I yours. For example, anaennic people often endure months of suffering • while treating its symptoms. such as indigestion, shortness of breath, pat pitation of the heart and exhaustion , after any small effort. The apparent stomach and heart troubles are generally anathing more than the result of an insuticieat sup- ply of pure blood. This anaemic state may ba -vs followed some previous 111 - nese, or an attack a iazfluenze; or it may have arisen from. overworks, wor- ry or too little fresh air. To obtain good health the simple and proper. course Is to build up the blood, but to tlo thins you must select a reliable remedy with a reputation such as Dr. 14'illianis" Pick Pills, These pills eta•, rtclz the blood which carries nourtsh.- meat to all the organs of the body and enables thein to do the work zea tura expects of them.

Here s a land • name t o is a 1 ci 1 t good i lit of a puzzle, both as to racial origin and source. Tin' obvious explanation, but one which is not entirely ,satisfactory, is that it was originally a name added to the given name in order to describe zationali v. it doubte 1y his actually y is the true origin of the name in a great many cases, for in the old Eng- lish records there are instances of such namue:l as 'Malcolm le Scot," which, of course. could have no other meaning. But this aloes not explain every- thing. There are more ancient re- cords in Italy, in Frence and in Ger- many. as well as Anglo-Saxon Eng- land, which prove that "Scot," in one form or another, was rather wide- spread as a given name, and not as a descriptive name. Latin inscriptions give us the form "Scotnus" and "Seethe' the latter apparently being a common name among the Teutonic Franks who lived in the northern part of France. The name was also com- mon among the subjects of the Em- peror Charlemagne and among other Teutonic races as "Scotardus," with syllable, it is to be noted, similar to Richard, Reynard, Leonard. etc., a distinctly Teutonic compound.. It was also an Anglo-Saxon given name, as "Septa," and the place -name Scottowe is simply a development of the Anglo- Saxon "Scotebo" or "grave of Septa." In those days there was no such name as Scotland, though in the Celtic tongue Ireland was known as "Scots." It was not uutil the Middle Ages that, as the name of a Country,. it was trans- ferred, to Scotland in common usage. Tho existence of the family name in so many countries indicates it often. developed •from the given name, but where the given name first appeared is still a mystery.

The famous St. George's Chapel of Windsor Castle will be recited, for three years, for extensive restora- tion work, the need of which is so pressing that architects would not guarantee the chapel to stand another year without the collapse of the roof, which would mean the utter destruc- tion of the fabric, with all its cele- brated artistic and historic glories. The chapel stands within the walls of the castle, but it is a freebold of the State and the State money eau not be spent for timers improvements. The question of the expense has been taken up by the Knights of the Order of the Garter, for whose use tlse chapel originally was founded, and in order to distribute the burden the work will be spread over a period of four years. Already- $125,000 has been collected; which will meet the expense of the' first year's work, The, repair's will consist of replacing the decayed ina- terial without much alteration.
