The great cause of the famines east { et Pekin and north of the delta of the Yellow River is a westerly gale that may blow night and day for four wbole tnontbs without ceasing, The fertility of China is due to the loess constituting the soil of the Great Plain from Pekin to the Yang-tse• Kiang basin, This loess is a yellow soil. Loess has self-sutaciency of fer- tility beyond any other known soil, The loess can be powdered in the hands, but is Arne enough for entire communities to carve out apartments in which they live comfortably. Cliffs of loess occur. A single mile of loess soil in Shan- tung province wil support 3,072 people, 256 donkeys, 256 cattle and 512 pigs— an average of .twelve individuals, one donkey, one cow and two pigs all on a single farm of two and a half acres.

O'SHAUGHNESSY Variations--O'Sheghnassy, O'Shaatnes- sy, Racial Orlgi n --Irish. Source—A given name. Like virtually ail of the Irlsll family names, the first use of this name as a surname was to designate a elan. The Gaelic form of the name is "O'Seachnaisaigh." And what is the proper pronuncia- tion of this? Well, it's difficult for an rue to get it ab- solutely, . ,in tot 114]1 CAk Eu s g g 1~ 1 but ""Otehan-nesch,°" with the accent on the "shaw" and the final r vagueone, somewhat v an ler syllable at between the sound of '"seb" and "say." An "s" before an "e" or "I" in Gaelic takes the sound of "sb." The "O'Sette]tnasaigh'" became a elan about the year 1100 A.D., becom- ing known by that name as the follow- ers of a chieftain of. the O"Connor line uamed "Seachnasacb. " The O'Connors of Ireland held a po- sition In the ancient history of that land not dissimilar to that of the Clan Aplin in Scotland. So many of its di- visions became full-fledged clans them- selves. Thus, as many of the Scottish clans trace back to the Clan. Alpin, so in Ireland there were many ciksely as- sociated with the O'Connors, including the O'Dowds, the O'Colmans, the O'Cahills, the O'Rowans, the O'Scan- lous, and the Irish Forbes, not to be confounded with the Scottish clan of that name. The stronghold of the O'Shaughnessys was ""Cineol Aodha," vow spelled Kinelee, In County Gal- avay. CULLEN Variations--O'Cullen, Guilin, O'Cullin. Racial Origin --Irish. Source --A given name. "O'Culliu" is the Gaelic form of the . clan name from which the Anglicized family names of Cullen, O'Cullen, Cul - lin an.1 O'Culliu have been developed. The fcunder of the clan, a chieftain by the name of "C'ullin," was a great- grandson of "Core,"a contemporary of St, Patrick. Hence it will be seen that this tinnily or clan name is of great antiquity. much 1 odor than an th e bink cf the family names of England, Scotland. and the Continent, Indeed, the ancient Irish records give this chieftain "Core" the credit of being the ancestor of the Scottish Stewart elan, and hence of the Stew- art line of English monarchs,• According to' the fragmentary his- tories this "Core" tied to Scotland in his youth, where he married a daugh- ter of the Pictish king. One of his sons, "Main Learnhna," remained in that country and founded the line of - the "Mor Mhair Leamhna," the "mor- maors'" or the "Great Stewards" of Lenox. Core returned to Ireland, but was never converted to Christianity, though he was appointed to a commit tee of scholars, including the High Monarch, the saint himself and a num- ber of bishops, to codify and classify the historical records.of the High.

Your Tell -Tale Thumb. The shape of a person's hand is an index to his character. What men are so fond of calling a "useful” girl—one who is capable in the domestic sphere—often has by no means a pretty hand. It is• broad in the paelrn, with strong heavy fingers and a thickset thumb. On the other hand, the girl whose hands are pretty, with delicate taper- ing fingers and narrow palm, is apt to be the kind who does. not make a suit- able wife for the average young man. The girl with plump, dimpled hands bas.a warns and affectionate disposi- tion, but isnot always capable. A man's hand ,play betray him, es- pecially if he has a thumb that is fiat. onthe palm side. This denotes fickle- ness. The man with a broad hand and thick, short fingers is persistent and practical, while., men with long fingers are declared to be unreliable. Mooring Mast for Dirigibles.

The blood which car- ries nourishment to the nerves .has become thin and impure and no longer does so, and the pain you feel is the cry of the nerves for their natural food. You may ease the pains of neur- algia with hot applications, but real relief from the trouble comes by est• riehing and purifying the blood. For this purpose Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are strongll recommended. These pills malfe new, rich blood and thus act as a meet effective nerve tonic. If you are suffering from this most dreaded of troubles, or any forst of nerve trouble, give these pills a fair trial, and note the ease and comfort that follows their use,.
