To every woman belongs the right to enjoy a healthy, active life; yet nine out of ten suffer front some form of bloodlessness. That is why one sees on every side pale, thin cheeks, dull eyes and drooping figures—sure Ogee of Headaches, weak backs, aeb- ing limbs and uncertain health. All weak women should win the right to be well by refreshing their wears bodies with the new. rich, reel blood that promptly transforms' there into healthy attractive women. This new, red blood is supplied by Or. Williams' Pink Pills, which reaches every organ O and every nerve in the body. Through the use of these pills thousands of wo- men have found benefit when suffering from anaemia, indigestion, general. weakness and those ailments from which women alone suffer, Among the many women who tell of the good Dr. Winterise' Pink Pills have (tone them is Mrs. L. Nicks, Round Hill, N.S., who says: "I became very much', run down in health; my blood seemed', weak and watery. my strength failed,' and I was so easily tired that my work' was a burden. I heldoften read about Dr, Williams' Pink Pills and decided to try them, and I can truly say that after using three boxes I found my- self yself gaining, and my old-time energy and v.ftelity was restored. Out of my own experience I can strongly recent- mend this medicine." Youcan get Ar. Williams' PInIL Pills through any dealer in medicine or by mall at $0 cents a box or six boxes tor $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' :Medicine Co., Brockville, Gut. 1 Value of Forests, Canada is one at the greatest forest countries of the world. lesuch of our Canadian soil is unsuited to textualg, but is capable of growing magnificent timber. Our forests provide work which maintains halt a million people, They give work. too. for our sailors and railway men and furnish busine s for our merchants and bankers. All citizens can assist in taking care of cur forests and, particularly" in pro- teetcng them against fire, A person enjoys a. rub -down after a hard day's work; so does a horse. M!nard's Liniment Relieves Neuralgia Oculists have rowel that a pearlier Surnames and' Their Origin LINDSAY Variation --Lindsey. Racial Origin--NormereFrenal. Source --A clan name, To classify the, family name of Lind- say as Norman-Freneh origin, when it is Scottish, and to call it a elan name though the Lindsays were neither Gaelic nor Highlanders. demands some excuse and explanation. It happened during the reign ot King Malcolm Ceann-mor ("131g Head") ot Scotland, which extended from before to many years after the Norman invasion of England. In the years immediately following the first victories of William the Con- queror, many Anglo-Saxon warriors and clii.eftains sought their fortunes anew in Scotland. IMaleohn welcomed them. Later dissatisfied with the re- wards William had granted or with- held, also sought the service of a more generous overlord. And Malcolm wel- comed them also. The Lindsays were among the lat- ter number. At that time they bore a surname descriptive of the lo- cality front which they had come in Normandy, "De Lilnesay." In the course of time this has become Lind- say. The family won. for itself, through grants of the Scottish court, lands which though not in the Highlands bordered on them. Throughout sub sequent history they played a large part in the wars and confederations of the Highlands. They adopted the cus- toms and manners of the clans, bore the sante weapons as the Gaels, evolved a dress and a tartan similar to those of the Highlanders, and so in the course of time have come to be re- garded, let us say, as sort of honorary "Highlanders, if not Highlanders by blood. It was a Lindsay, indeed, wino was first colonel of the famous Black Watch Regiment of Highlanders. C1-IATTERTON Variations — Chatsworth, ChetWooci, Chatham, Chadsey, u Racial Origin --Anglo-Saxon. Source—A place name. This is a group of family names which has been derived from place I nameswhich, though not the same,. • are all of the same character. The basic element in these names is the ancient Anglo-Saxon word for cottage, or hut, which was "cyte" or "eete" (the pronunciation of the An- glo-Saxon "e" was always like "k," for, as a matter of fact, there was no "k" in the Anglo-Saxon alphabet). This was the usual word denoting "hous" or "dwelling," the ancient equivalent of the modern word "house" being reserved for buildings of a more pretentious or public na- ture, The place name of Chatterton, or more properly "Chadderton," from which: the family name was descrip- tively derived, was compounded from the Angle -Saxon "tete-doir dun," and signified "the fortified dwelling in the, wood." Chatham is the name of a town in i Kent. It is compounded of "cyte""or "tete" and "ham," the latter signify- ing a village. Chatsworth is a compound of "tete" and "worth." At the period when family names were formed this word had come to mean any farmstead. But tire compound of the place name had occurred long before, when the word still preserved its literal meaning of a "warded" or inclosed place, Hence the place name meant not a farm cot- tage, but a cottage ,in an inclosure. Usually the inclosure was a wooded place. Chatwood was a place name signify- ing a""cottage in the wood and Chad- sey a dwelling near the sea.

It Doesn't Matter, "It doesn't really platter nothing does," is the motto I saw recently in a house, and it set me to thinking. Why should we make much ado about things that we cannot preventor help? Why not receive the blows and knocks passively instead of being so wrought up all the time that we get the double effect of these unfortunate happenings, both physically and men- tally? Why are we so chargrined and morti- fied when we think we haven't done ourselves justice on some occasion --- presiding at a meeting, or tilling a place in an entertainment program, for instance—and public attention has been attracted to us In any way? Why do we make ourselves so miserable over conviction that we have not ap- peared at •our best? It doesn't really matter, does it? It is not of vital im- portance, and should •we allow the lit- tle things of life, the little pin -pricks and annoyances, the little perplexi- ties which disturb little minds, to throw us off our balance, to spoil our happiness and peace of mind? No, a thousand times no! Whatever hap- pens, it isn't of half so much import- ance as we probably think. The main thing is to keep our poise under the little trials. If we are cheerful and optimistic, they- will soon be forgotten by us and others. When Is a Man Less Than a Man? When he makes a vow he fails to keep; When without sowing he would reap: When he 'would rather beg, borrow, or steal Than work to earn an honest meal: When he delights to stir up strife Or values honor less than. life When he insults a fallen,foe, Or at a woman aims a blow. A good laugh is sunshine in any house, but a •silly,, simpering laugh is only a tallow -candle imitation of the sunlight.
