A ' enderfu'1 invention called the •g oscilloscope has set everyone talking about its, pecui'iae possibilities: It is a new appliance ,svhieh 'has the illusory effect Of slowing dawn the apparent speed of a swift engine to a mere crawl. The device operates a.certain katal of electric lump which, when shone on, isay, the swiftly operating needle of a sewing maehine, makes it appear as if that particular part of the ma- chine is dawdling at a snail's dace. By its use theactual working a, high speed pistons and o+bher mg's! neeting parts can be observed, and! this, of manse, is a great advantage to engineers.

Izn view of the freedom with which nicknames were used in the i511dd1e *gee as surnames, in the period be• fore family names, as we know them to -day, had become a. general custom, one might be pardoned for assumtng that this family name wae. at first a laurname bestowed upon come individ- ual or individuals as a result of the kind of lines they led. The theory. however, does not bold good in the light at more careful in- vestigation. This is not to say that the family name could not or did not originate in this manner in certaln 1n• stances. It means, only that there is another source, and one which, from all the evidence available, appears to account for the memo in. the greater number of instances. "Guthiat" was a given name among the Auglo•Saxons, and by no means an uncommon one. Remember that the Anglo•Saxons did not give the "th" the ;sound that we do today, though they had begun to approximate it. Re- member, too, that the "te, with them bad the sound of our modern "oo," and that in thio name the accent on the first sy21abl would tend to e, welch make the pronunciation of the "a" in alai" indistinct. The change to Good- tifte, therefore, is not so great as it might seem upon drat consideration. The spelling Goodliffe, of course, is due to the similarity of the more auth- entic spelling to the combination "gbod life." GILCHRIST Variations — Glllciariest, MacGille. chriest, Racial Origin—Irish. Source --A given name. It is the custom in this country, as it was in medieval England, to name a child after some ancestor, saint or pro - Patient swan. This was also a custom among the Gaels. But both the Web. and the Scots also had a custom they often followed of namilag a and with a compound name, the meaning of which was "ser- vant aim---" eombined with the name of the great personage selected. Thus a child named atter Saint Patrick was sometimes called lust Patrick and''. sometimes "Servant -of -Patrick. It should be explained, however, that there is no true equivalent in English for the prefix, that they used. The; nearest you can comp to it Is to say that it combined something of the meaning of "servant," "follower," and "admirer." .As a matter of fact there were no servants In old Ireland, with the exception, perhaps, at certain periods, of slaves. The clan system developed loyal followers who served their chiefs often in more or less of a menial capacity, but this form of ser- vice was considered an honor to bo sought after, and was not undertaken in a servile manner. There was noth- in g even indirectly involuntary about it, "Giollchriosd" was a given name which meant "Servant of Christ." Among others, a chieftain who was the brother of the founder of "Seanlaoeb," the O'Shanly clan, bore it. This "Glee chrlosd" or Qillchrist was the founder of the aleanillechriest line. ""The blackest lie ever hatched is to say, `once a thief always a thief.' Vie- spectable people who draw away from the unfortunate anddeclare there is no hope for them are doing much to make professional criminals. Once a, person starts in the wrong direction there are plenty to help keep hint go- ing. The worst thing about it is the feeling of hopeless- ness that seizes so hazy first offenders ; in place of bracing up fora new start, they yield to the fords that are dragging them under, and keep on going from bad to worse."

In almost every case the victims of la grippe, influenza;, fevers and con- tagious troubles, are left weak, ailing and despondent after the disease it- self has disappeared, They do not flick up strength as they ought, and remain tired, listless and discouraged. The only reason for this is that the blood has been impoverished by the ravage' of the disease through which the vic- tim has passed, Strength and full activity will not return until the bleed has been restored to its normal emelt- tion. The blood can be enriched and Purified quickly and surely by De.

N.S., who says:—"In Jan., 1917, I took a severe cold which I neglected until it developed into pneumonia, which con- fined me to bed for some weeks. When I was able to get up and sit around the house, I found that I was not regaining my usual strength; in. fact I seemed to be growing weaker and was reduced almost to a skeleton. I -took an emulsion, but it did not help me. Then one day a friend wha came to see me said, "here's soma Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pili,:; just the thing to put you on your feet again." I took them and then got six boxes more and soon could feel they were helping me.' By the time the last box was empty I was doing my work again and feeling fine, and I had gained in weight.

Rose Lore, It is peobable that a greater amount of love has attached itself to the rase, England's motional floral emblem, than to any other flower. The Syrians take the rose as their emblem of immortality, wind in China it is planted over graves—a custom which is also favored to some extent in this country. Persians believe that on a certain charmed day—a secret which but few have ever discovered—the rose has a heart of gold. If in a garden a white rose blooms in late autumn, the belief is wide- spread that some member of the household will shortly tide --a maid in her teens, for choice. To get good luck in any undertak- ing which concerns itself with love, rase Leaves should be thrown en the fire, and a wish murmured as they curl and die. In Germany the custom still pre- vails .of girls carrying a rosebud in the breast to ensure the fidelity of their lovers, and in most European(' countries rase leaves are used to die - cover wh+ilch, out of many lovers, is the true one. Finally, there is the queer belief that a red nose wall not bloom over a, grave until - the person who pleated it is dead. Belgian Prince Visits Japan.

The Road ,to Mandalay, It is a green and leafy road, . plea- santly restful to the eye after the Yellow serenenese of most of northern India. There is yellow here? too, for of the 885 miles of the way—the way up from Rangoon by the one meter gauge line of the Burma ranwaysi—the greater part runs through one vast rice field, a wilderness of paddy, and the rice has just been cut and is being threshed. The agrieultural laborer and the menfolk of the very poor may be dressed only in single strip of cotton 01o4 of dirty White, being naked down to the waist; but the costume of the great mass of the people of both sexes -the white jackeblike garment above and bright colored petticoat skirt below—ds eminently picturesque and graceful. It is astonishing also how far down one goes in the social scale before reaching the point where, et least on holidays, the skirt is not of silk, and it is this almost universal use of silk in every imaginable shade of the tenderest blues and greens, pinks and apricot and maize,that gives the Burmese crowd its distinc- tive appearance. The gay, email tur- bane of the men and the coiled black hair of the women, always with a bright spray of flowers, and often richly jeweled, are both /becoming and attractive headdresses. The Burmese--espe.-ially the women. —seem never to talk together except: with constant ripples of laughter, and, talo children are a joy. Like the high4 born Manchu girl among the Chinese, the well bred Buamese girl is of the' moat delicate porcelain, almost too dainty and frail to handle, and soma of the small maidens who have been put forward to present 3aouquest to the Prince have been the loveliest little dreams dolls imaginable.
