In England, Scotland, and particui- Origin of ly France, there are Hilarious many indications that Prank Day the day is an ancient one: In Scotland, the pas time of making a fool, out of a law- abiding citizen was entitled, "Hunting � Go k." Th w eowk fool, a 1 g , or ivsa8o known under the more euphonious and subtle name of cuckoo. The favorite method of hunting the gowk in Scotland was to engage an in- dividual to carry a supposedly highly important note. Asa matter of fact, the note usually read, "Keep the gowk on the run." Consequently the first person who received the note ivould pretend to be greatly perplexed and send the messenger to a second person frc added information. The second per- sonage would wish said gowk onto a third, and thus it went until the cuckoo eitlteP dropped from exhaustion] pr some kindlier fellow than most mortals took pity upon him. There are two plausible explanations of the origin of All Fool's Day. One of thein 's that as tate old New Year began March 25, and ended April 1, that day vas selected for such pranks as sending folks on foolish errands, The other explanation seems more likely to be correct, The Hindoo5 have, in their Hull, which terminates with March 31, a very similar institution. Upon that day the people devote all their Hine and energy toward fooling somebody, -somehow. IN England April Fools' Day has en- joyed a long popularity.

It is particularly re- quested that no gratuities be given to the wardens or their assistants. En- trance at the White Gate." The thing worked beautliknliy, s10 beautifully, that cabs and all manner of vehicles, some ofthem engaged at great expense, rattled over Tower Hill ail day Sunday, looking in vain for the white gate. Slowly the thought at last crept through the' ZrOw6 that it April 3, and the disgusted mob melted away in -silence. —0— t e , , nLD Irish families trace their descen to the Milesians, who conquered th country, according to Bardie tradition about 1700 13, C. The Milesians ori ginated in Scythia Irish Families but migrated to Trace Descent_ Egypt and thence to Mileaians to Spain, where they became rulers of the land. They are named after Miled, the )read of the clan that went to Ireland. Of the eight sons, Erenion, became King of All Ireland. There were 117 of his successors until the ad- vent of St. Patrick, ,The Milesians had been preceded by three other races, tate Partlialonians, who, according to tradition, came front Greece about three centuries after the Deluge. They were all wiped out by tate plague. Following thein came the Firboigs, who had scarcely taken pons- efslon of the land before the Tuatha De Daman (Tribes of the God Dann) ar- rived, also from Greece, and brought with them the Lia Fail, or Stone of Destiny, which they set up at Tara.

THE BEST MEDICINE FOR LITTLE ONES Thousands of mothers state positively 'that Baby's Own Tablets are the best medi cine they know of for little t le ones. Y k o Their experience has taught' thein that the Tablets always do just what is claim ed for them and that they can be given perfect safety to children of alt ages. Concerning them Mrs. Joseph Therrien, St. Gabriel De Brandon Que. writes: "Baby's Own Tablets are the best medi- cine I know of for little ones. I thought I would lose my babybefore 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 orby mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville Ont.

In Samuel we have a striking pattern of child re- ligion, The Lord gave him In answer to Hannah's prayer. From his birth he was dedicated to the Lord. While quite young his mother took halm to the sanctuary of the Lord where he served and slept. It is a goad thing to have much sin •forgiven, but ft is better far to grow up without sin. Two' traits in Samuel's character stand out in this call; namely, his cheerful obedience to the Lord's call and his surrendered will. It was no easy thing to respond cheerfully to the thrice repeated call. It may have seemed to him to be unreasonable, but each time he obeyed t'n simplicity IV. Samuel's First Prophottc Moa. ease (3111.18). Up tothis time Samuel obeyed 114 one who was oyer him, but the time had now come when he must directly hear and obey the Lord.
