Source—Geographical.' Though the origin at this family name, which is the mune of one of the Highland clans of Scotland, is not Gaelic at all, most of those who bear the name are descendants of Gaels, with blood that originally came from Ireland. The exact racial classification of the Lowland Scottish has never been .set- tied settied with finality. That they were or- iginally a Teutonic, rather than a Cel- tic, race, is certain, but they have never been definitely placed as be- longing to the Germanic (like the An- glo-Saxons) or the Scandinavian (like the Norse) braneh of that great racial division. There is very good philo- logical evidence that the Scottish dia- lect (which, incidentally, is not the language of the Highlanders but of the Lowlanders) is not a corruption of English, as is+commonly supposed, but a development independent of it, from a tongue dissimilar neither to the an- cient Saxon nor Norse. It has, how- ever, been complicated by the in- fluence of the neighboring English tbrough all periods. However, the name of Chisholm (note the Saxon ending, which means a meadow land) was the name of the home of the Lowland family which founded the Highland clan, gathering its t_ollowers from among the Gaels. The name, ' as first recorded, was aliened "Chishelme." This was in the. fourteenth century, in. about the mid- dle of which the acquisition of High- land territory and the formation of the clan is placed.

CHILDHOOD INDIGESTION Nothing is more common in child- hood than indigestion. Nothing is more dangerous to proper growth, more weakening to the constitution or more likely to pave the way to clan- gorous disease. Fully nine -tenths of all the minor ills ot childhood have their root in Indigestion. There is no medicine for the little ones to equal Baby's Own Tablets in relieving this trouble.
