Its speed The 'United States Public Health Service has,:been making,nn iutensive study of a tooth. The natter is of prima importance, because the part this particular tooth plays in the human economy is pecul- iar and conspicuous. It is the largest of the teeth --the big grinder. It is the first of the per- mauent teeth to make its appearance in the month of the child. Yet it does not replace another tooth, and it is not replaced by an- other. nother. , It is the so-called "firstmolar," and upon it falls the job of doing most of the heavy chewing while the tempor- ary teeth of early childhood are being replaoed by the permanent and final set. The service of this tooth as a food. grinder is needed throughout life, Four of these first molars are pro- vided by thoughtful nature for each human being—two in each jaw. The study made by the United States Public health Service com- prised inspections of 6,388 mouths of children of both sexes, from the age of six (when the teeth in question first arrive) to seventeen years. Sometimes these teeth actually start in to decay before they are fairly through the gums. The inspections showed that nearly 5 per cent. of them acquire "cavities" during the first year after hey are erupted. In children eleven years old (five years ofter erup- tion) 9 per cent. of them have been extracted or appear merely as decayed roots. Fifty-four per cent. of the 6,388 children examined showed .one or more of the first molars missing or defective. The trouble seems to be due to im- perfect enamel. It is merely one manifestation of the progressive de- terioration which the human dental equipment is undergoing. 3 Preserved Timber. lelen employed in driving a new gal- lery in a mine at Charlotte Plains in Victoria, Australia, have made an as- tonishing discovery. -At a depth of 300 feet below ground they have come upon pieces of timber, perfectly pre- served, which have every appearance of having 'been ,sewed and shaped by the hand of man. This timber lies in the bed.' of an anoient, river' now being worked for gold, and the timber is oak. ` Now oak has the peculiar property of lasting for centuries when buried in water or wet sand, Oak piles have been taken out from under old wooden bridges constructed by the'Roinans and found as sound as when they were put there nearly 2000 years ago. Oak known as the bog oak is found buried in peat bogs and is perfectly black, intensely hard and very valu- able. At present there is.an absolute famine in seasoned oak wood but- if we ' could suppress' bolshevesm and open up Russia to trade, that famine wattld soon be"ended.

Variations--Dumleavy, Dunlevy, Dun- lef, Donleavy, Don -Levi, Delap. Racial Origin—Irish and Scottish. Source—A given name. This group of family names had its origin in the name of one of the an- ----dent n--- tient Irish clans, from which all of the foregoing variations have been de- rived in the process of Anglicizing the name. The name Donleavy occurs as nhtive to Scotland, and as the name of a sept in the. Clan Buchanan. But while it may have originated from the same given name as the Irish family name, its source is more or less clouded in obscurity, and the only thing certain Is that it had an origin independent of connection with the Irish clan. The older form of the Scottish name is "Mac -Don -Leavy." The Irish clansmen were known as the "MacDunshleibhe" or "O'Dun- shleibhe." This elan, came into being some time in the eleventh century, under the leadership of a chieftain named "Dunsleibhie;"'.who was the son of the famous- "Eochaidh," brother of "Maolruanaidh." This "Maolruan- aidle" wae the forty-seventh king of "Ulidi ,e or Ulster, and was slain in the great battle with the Danes at Cloutarf in 1047. "Don -Levi" was the peculiar Eng- lish translation .of the name adopted by a branch of the clan, but It was never widespread, CLAVER Variations—Cleaver, Clevenger, Racial Origin—English: Source—An occupation or title. The original meaning of these family names lead nothing to do with the word "cleve" in either the sense of cutting or clinging. The source is entirely different, and lies in the now obsolete word "claviger." The "claviger" of the middle ages, under the Anglo-Norman system of government held a position similar to those of the modern city or state treasurer and custodian of public do- cuments combined. Technically he was the "keybearer," for that is what the word ,"claviger" meant, And the key he bare was that of the public treasury. He was the custodian of public moneys and documents, the official who was responsible for their safe- keeping, though not for their collec- tion or expenditure., There- was a Robert Clavynger on the medieval parliamentary lists, 'but the still older forms of the name are to be found in such entries as "John le Clavier," . "Henry le Clover" and "John le Clavour," Public offices in Close days general- ly were held for life, as the most usual and effective way of removing an of ficial from office was to remove him for life. Thus. in many instances these titles stuck long enough to the indi- vidual, and we're even handed clown with the office from father to son, to become family names: r Table Drink Made instantly in the cup by adding. hot rater no delay and no waste.

" THE BEST MEDICINE FOR LITTLE ONES Thousands of mothers state posi- tively that Baby's Own Tablets are the best medicine they know of for little ones. Their experience has taught them that the Tablets always do just what is claimed for them and that they can be given with perfect safety to children of all ages. Concerning') them Mrs. Joseph Therrien, St. Gab- riel de Brandon, Que,, writes: "Baby's Own Tablets, are the best medicine I know of for little ones. I thought I would lose my baby before trying the Tablets, but they soon made him healthy and happy and now I would .not be without them." The tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 2,e cents a box from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Good Laying Hens.

My appetite was very poor and toy food seldom agreed with me, and I had to live on a very restricted diet. I suf- fered a great deal from headaches and dizzy spells; I had severe pains across the small of my back and was badly constipated most of the time. In fact, I was so weak and rundown I was not able to attend to my duties. "This condition made me very nerv- ous and I could not sleep at night.

A drop or two of ammonia in a tuna bier of water is a specific far some plants, especially those with. soft stems, suchas primulas. But the mix- ture ixture must notbe too strong, or it will kill instead of cure. Charcoal, while not a true fertilizer, has an extraordinary good effect on most pot plants.
