These covers were mads about thirty inches longer than the bed to allow for folding over the pil- lows. The next problem was to provide for the extra blankets and puffs. These would be very untidy if left on the beds and would spoil the trimness of the bed if piled under the covers. The problem was solved by making of the same cotton homespun, large envel- opes or fiat pockets the size of the springs., to which they were fastened underneath by tapes. At one side of the bed they were left open so that the extra bedding can be placed here when not used and yet be within easy reach when needed. • Old Fashioned Flowers.

Racial Origin--rnglleh, also German. Source—Geographical. In this country to -day we pay little attention to trees, so little indeed that the average p:ea•son,lpartieuiarly among elle city dwellers, ;does not know one from another, This was not the case in medieval and early modern times, Iwhen trees: were widely used as, land- marks in establishing locations. All of the family navies in this list belong to the geographical class, and they are all derived from the naive of a tree, the linden, the name of which is now and was in the Middle Ages, when family names were formed, vir- tually the same in both English and German: It is impossible to determine de- finitely in the _ cases of most of the family names given in the foregoing whether they are German or English. The name Lindstrom is certainly Ger- man, meaning "lindstream," that is, a stream or river bordered by linden trees. Dwellers in such a locality of- ten were known, by such a name as; Hans of the Lindenstream, the pre- fixed words being dropped in German as they have in similar circumstances in English. Lindley is an English name formed from the name of the tree and "ley"" an old - English word' for "shelter." Lyed is the closest we have to the old English spelling of the name of the tree. Lynn in some cases, when it is not Celtic, is a variation of this spell- ing. There is evidence that Lind, Linde- man and Linden are of both English and German derivation, CALVERT Variations—Stoddard, Goddard, ard, Swinnart,' Hoggart. Racial ,Arigin---English; Source—An Occupation. The endings "ext," "ard" and "art" In family names, when they are not traceable to the old Teutonic "bard" whicb is compounded in so'matty .given, names, nearly always indicate an old Anglo-Saxon word of another meaning "herd," We use it 'still, but except in such Combinations as "shepherd" we have switched its application from the Man wlio bad charge of the animals to the animals themselves; In Anglo- Saxon speech the "herd" was the man in charge of the domestic animals, The family name of Coward has no connection with our modern word de- noting lack of courage. It is 'simply a corruption of the old form of "covr- nerd," which was "cowherds." •'The family name of Calvert, though it bas been borne by the English no- bility,nevertheless had its beginning among simple fork whose task was to herd calves, Goddard was originally goat-herd. Another old English word for a bul- lock was •"stot," from which has de- veloped the family -name of Stoddard, less frequent forms of this name, but. closer to the original, being "stotherd" and "Stothard." Swinnart is from "swine -herd," and the swineherd's occupation was no whit lees noble than the Calvert's nor that of the modern industrious farmer. Hoggart (when not a corruption of Hagarth) traces back to hog -herd. RED HOT JULY DAYS HARD ON THE BABY July—the month of oppressive heat; red-hot days and swelfering.nights; is extremely hard on little ones. Diar- rhoea, dysentery, colic and cholera in- fautum carry off thousands of precious little lives every summer. The mother must be constantly on her guard to prevent these troubles; or if they come on suddenly to fight them. No -other medicine is of such aid to mothers dur- ing the hot summer as is Baby's Own Tablets. They regulate the bowels and stomach, and an occasional dose given to the well child will prevent summer complaint, er if the trouble does come on suddenly will banish it. The Tab- lets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. 9 Heard it Knocking. Prospective Autois•t (trying out iily- ver)—"I think this is a great oppor- tunity to get a good car." Friend — "No doubt it's an oppor- tunity—I hear it knocking now." Sponge Wood Before Staining. The advantages of sponging wood be- fore staining are many. It frequently happens that the grain rises when the stain is applied but by sponging the wood first and then allowing it to dry the raised grain may be sandpapered level and thus a recurrence of the trouble is avoided when the stain Is put on. Another advantage of sponging lies to the fact that water opens the pores of the wood, and thus any clogged con- dition arising from previous sand- papeiing is remedied and furthermore the stain is enabled to sink deeply in- to the wood. This produces a very even color capable of standing light sandpapering if such is found neces- eery to product the smooth surface on Which the success of good varnishing depends. Another great advantage' is this—that when a filler is used with- out previously sponging, the old sand - simper dust ui d other material which clogs the pores absorbs water from the stain and remains damper than the 'wood in contact with the air. When the:foreign material does dry out it does so by absorption through the sur- rounding wood which causes shrinkage and settlement and pulls the varnish coat down into the pores. Or again, the sante moisture May, by expansion, force the varnish out In small 'spots, estpecially if, the varnish Is applied in an ecceeeively warm atmosphere, Dawn.

Just a Child Out of Doors. "Tell Him Now." If with pleasure you are viewing Any work a man is doing, If you like him or you love bim, tell him now; Don't withhold your approbation Till the parson makes oration i And he lies with snowy 11111es o'er his brow, For no matter how you shout it, He won't know how many teardrops you have shed; If you think some praise is due him New'•s the time to slip it to him, For he cannot read his tombstone when he's dead, 1 More than fame and more than money Is the comment kind and sunny, And the hearty, warm approval of a friend; For it gives to life a savor, And it makes him stronger, braver, And it gives him heart and spirit to the end; If he earns your praise, bestow it; If you like him, let him know it; Let the words of true encourage- ment be said: Do not wait till life is over And he's underneath the clover, For he cannot read his tombstone when he'•s dead. —George A. Turner. Slowly he came along the little path, which ran, a narrow white track, be- side a field of high -growing grain. The , 'sunlight fell on his fair hair as he bent his head a little, engrossed in contem Nation of the ear of corn which he held in his chubby hand. Such a quaint little figure he seemed in his ; AL snowy white jacket embroidered in gay colors around the shoulders, sleeves, and neck. Beyond him were the mountains, their heads crowned with snow, their lower slopes tree -clad and smiling; but he -had no eyes for the beauty of his surroundings, or for the strangers who watched him. Oblivious of all but that which he held in hos hand he wandered on, unaware that he was be- ing made into a picture. And the sun shone over all, that wonderful sunlight of Switzerland, which s•eem•s to soak the Landscape in clear, pure radiance. The beauty of the mountains with all their ielianite gradations of tone and color,the green of the fir trees, the waving barley in the field all became a background for the simplicity of this childish figure so completely aloof from its surroundings --a background for the unconscious loveliness of child- hood.

AN 1NTER9 ATH DALI RECO MME[4DED A promine it physician made the remark recently that if people were half as particular in regard to in- ternal cleanliness as they are about external appearance three quarters of our ordinary ailinents would be eliminated. This medical man said people did not stop to think of t`he importance of keeping the system just as clean as one is careful to keep hands,face and body. The result is that y theintestinal tract becomes clogged and waste material which should leave the body daily stays there for an indefinite period doing a harm few people realize, So many ills are traceable to these clogging poisons i An internal bath sounds novel, but it is much easier to take than any other kind! A spoonful of Sal Lithofos before breakfast (or any other meal); dissolved in a glass of tepid water acts as a gentle clean- ser of the bowls—provides a sooth- ing internal bath that rids the body of dangerous toxic poisons and gives one that feeling of freshness, vigor and well-being. A further advantage of the internal bath lies in the fact that a healthy body ensures an alert and active _Hind which makes for greater efficiency and happiness in one's daily .work. io - 4Misirt as wail �� l� have a.rwtm in•ihls \_ # milk b xiA efo en'ere *limn?`..
