Surnames and Their Origin STERLING. -Variations—Eastman, Racial Origin—English. Source—Geographical. The origin of the family name of Sterling is bound up with that of our word sterling, as applied to silver, and in its. various 'acquired meanings. In the early middle ages, before England had become much of a Tea - faring nation, the most intrepid traders were those who hailed from the various "free cities" along what is now the German seacoast. These cities, owing fealty to no king, or at most but nominal fealty for temporary periods, were leagued together in the establishment of trading*colonies, and for mutual military defence. , They had their agencies which were virtual- ly forts, in all the principal countries a of Europe. One' of their stations with great walled -in warehouses, was in London. These traders were, known to the English as "Easterlings"; that is, men of the East, or Easternern. They settled their transactions in pure silver, and as the English coin of the day was much adulterated the "pound Easterling" came to bee the standard of absolute value. In -common usage the initial vowels soon were dropped, leaving the word "s•terling." The family names Sterling and Eastman originally were preceded by "le"; thus, "Sigmund le Easterling"; and later more simply, as Sigmund Sterling" or "Geoffrey Eastman. MecDOW ELL. Varlations—MaoDowell, Dowell, Dow- ell, MacDhofl, MacCoul, MacCool. Raclai Origin—Scottish. Source—A given name. This group of names constitutes a class of variations of the clan name of MacDougall, • borne by one of the leading clans of Scotland and all of them occur as family names adopted by branches or septs of that elan. Cer- tain of them, too, are not exclusively. Scotish, but are to be found in Ireland as well. That the same names should spring up independently in Scotland and Ire- land, though in some cases from dif- ferent sourees, is not strange, for the bulk of. the Scottish Highland clans trace back to various, periods of con- quest and colonization of Scotland by the Dalriadie Scots from the north of Ireland, virtually all of which took place prior to the fifth century A.D. The difference in the Gaelic of the Highlands and that of Ireland is more a difference of dialect than of lang- uage. The family name in this group, like that of MacDougall, trace back to the given name of Dugal, from the Gaelic "dhu," meaning "dark," and "gall," for "stranger." In. the very early period this was the Highlander's name far a man of the -low country, but it very quickly became a given name. The family name of McCoul was more anciently spelled "Makoul." Riches.

No mother can expect that her child will escape all the ills to which baby- hood and childhood are subject, but she can do much to lessen their sever- ity, and to' make baby's battles for health easily, won.

To do this nothing can equal Baby's Own Tablets. They are a mild but thorough laxative which through their action on the stomach and bowels, never fail to ban- ish constipation and indigestion colds and. simple fevers; expel worms and make the dreaded teething time easy. Concerning Baby's Own Tablets Mrs.. A. Koshan, Hamilton, Ont., writes:—"Kindly send me your 'book- let, "Care of Baby in Health and Sick- ness."

Moat treatments for rheumatism do no more than aim to keep down the poison in the blood and enable nature to overcome that particular attack. Then when the system becomesrun- down from any cause the disease again gets the upper hand and it all has to be done over. Sufferers from rheumatism who have found their condition unrelieved or actually growing worse while using other remedies, would do well to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The tonic treatment with this medicine has proved in thousands of cases that it builds up the blood to a point that en- ables it to cast out the rheumatic, poisonsthrough the regular channels, the bowels, kidneys and the skin. When this is done rheumatism is ban- ished, and as long as the blood is kept pure and rich the patient will be immune from attack. This is fully proved by the case of Mr. Samuel Zinck, Upper Blandford, N.S., who says:—"For a long time I was a great sufferer from rheumatism which set- tled in my hip and down my leg to the knee. At tines the pain was so great that I could not walk. I tried lini- ments and medicines but without get- ting more than mere temporary relief. Then one day a friend called who said that he had been afflicted with this trouble which was banished by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and urged me to try them. I did as advised and after using a few boxes there was no doubt they were helping me. Not only was the rheumatism disappearing, but my general health was improving. I con- tinued the pills until I had taken about a dozen boxes, when every trace of the trouble had disappeared, and i have not felt a twinge of it since. 1 may add that my wife used these pills .for a run-down condition with equally good results." You can get these pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brockville, Ont. La Mort. Autumn dies a -singing, - Shouts a bold "Don't care!"

I have to tell him that his wife has icriiven hint and that he should re- turn to her as quitikly as he can." Then the evangeliet resumed his ser- mon. At the end of'the service as he descended frozn the pulpit the vicar rushed up to hien, and said excitedly: "How did you know about that man? It's true, doctor! And 1 packed him off to the colonies twelve years ago, and rte is here to -night; It's true! How did you know about it? "All I can say," replied the preach- er, "Is that during my sermon I saw on the wall opposite to me a vision of the Mersey and a man embarking— then a map of New Zealand—then the Mersey again 'and a man coming ashore." "How did you know it was twelve years ago orthat the man was here?" "I can't tell you, I knew—that is all!" Before that night wee ended the man had given his heart to Gad and was speeding hack to the wife he had so cruelly treated, that they might begin life again together, There is no doubt that there is a heightened con•Scieusness frequently realized in the pulpit by saintly preachers that is a sound testimony to divine inspira- tion.

Kiper Whales Battle Finhack in -Arctic as Explorer Watches During one of Scott's Antarctic cruises to study the finbaok whales, the rare appearance of which in the waters near the Falkland Islands threatened the existence of the island- ers,, one of his assistants witnessed a stirring battle between a sixty -foot finback and a number of killer whales. The smaller species are armed with strong, sharp teeth, grow from twenty to thirty feet long and are exceeding- ly ferocious. They tear pieces of flesh a yard long from their larger adver- sary, slash its lips and enter its mount, ripping out its tongue. The ocean's surface becomes red with blood over long stretches after such a conflict. The killer whale usually lives on smaller fish and remains around the moths of rivers lying in wait for its preys, but occa.sionaly is found miles out to sea, hunting and attacking the largest whales without fear. One scietist found parts of thirteen dol- phins and fourteen other victims in- side a killer seventeen feet long. ego -Holding Saws Fast -Easy -Crying' SIMON t PER and Mr IA vitclU (41 -TIGHT) Tt> #.

Great Change After Taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Sarnia, Ontario.—" After my girlie was born I was a wreck. My nerves were too terrible for words and I sim- ply could not stand or walk without pains. I suffered with fainting spells until i was no longer any good for my household duties and had to take to my bed. The doctor said I should have an operation, but I was not in a fit condition at that time. My neighbor said, 'Why don't you try Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg- etable Compound? I am sure it will do you good and will save those doctor's bills. So I was advised by my husband to try it after I told him about it. I am very thankful to say that I was soon able to take a few boarders for a while as rooms were scarce at that time. My baby is 17 months old now and I have not yet had an operation, thanks to your medicine. I have recommended the Vegetable Compound to a few people' I know and have told them the good it has done me. I know I feel and look a dif- ferent woman these last few months and I certainly would not be without a bottle of your medicine in the house. You can use this letter as you see fit, as I should be only too glad for those suffering as I have to know what it has done for me."—Mrs. ROBERT G. MAC- GREGOR, R. R. No. 2, Sarnia; Ontario.
