The list contains various cables which have been delivered and which have not yet been allocated by the ex- pert conference at Washington, to which the work was entrusted. In all there are seventeen cables in various parts .of the world. The . commission points out that while valuations have been reached on most of these certain questions of principle remain undetermined. It is also explained that figures recently published of German payments against the 20,000,000,000 gold marks under ar- ticle 235 of the treaty are much great- er• than the real figures. The allocation by the Reparations Commission of Germany's deliveries shows that France received the larg- est share, with Beigiuuiu second and Italy third. The United States ap- pears on the list with two items—dye- stuffs, of which she received 1,300,143 kilos, and lorries, numbering 1,314. Great Britain received 1,477,339 gross tons of shipping, 3,113,802 kilos of dyestuffs and 1,243 lorries. Eng- land did not share in any of the other deliveries. France received 14,210,582 tons of coal, Italy 1,618,534 tons, Belgium 1,- 401,626 and Luxemberg 58S,098 tons. • The Cash Value of Courtesy. It was a busy season of the year an the farm of a leading Yorkshire breeder. The owner (you would rec- ognize him if I mentioned his name) was away on some important bust•• noes. An' auto drove into the yard and a business -like man stepped out, who wanted "to see the boss." The roan in, charge of the firm, thinking of the work almost shriek- ing to be done, was perhaps a little hurried and impatient An lids dealings with a prospective customer. At any rate, the visitor, when he saw the farm owner a little later, complained of his reception at the farm. That !night the owner called his nien and gave them the following instruction: "Front now on I am going to be s -e ponsible whether or not any work remains undone because a customer drops in on us unexpectedly. We hurt the feelings of a customer to -day by being discourteous to limit. For all I )tnow, it may have cost me $1,000 in bu siness. "My instructions are to drop what- ever you are doing, and place Vane Self of the disposal of the visitor. He is not interested whether we are busy air. -not, but hi inspecting otu' herd. Give as pod an impression as you til." This pian has been in the purebred dbusiness. long enough to learn that gbod will means a whole lot in the Anal checking up of accounts. Ris order to the men was merely carry- ing out of a good business policy. Many livestock breeders who ai'e complaining about slow sales miht find the reason in their treatment of visitors to the farm, --- What Is .a 'Boy Scott A Boy Scout! Ile enjoys- a walk through the woods more than he does the excitement of the city streets, Ile learns the facts about the winds, the stars, the trees and all living things --- and becomes "master of himself" in the open. A Scout can do a knot that will hold, he can swim, he can patch a tent, he can mend a tear 'in his trousers, he can tell you what weeds are poisonous and what are not; If living near the ocean, lake or river he can reef a sail or pull an oar. A Scout does not run away when an accident Occurs. If a person has been cut he uses his first aid knowledge in stopping the flow of blood; if a person Inas been burned he knows just, what to do to alleviate the suffering's; and should anyone be drowning, his train- ing helps him to meet the emergency, to ewizn, with all clothes on if neces- sary, to the person in danger, and to bring him back to safety. And when the drowning person is pulled ashore, he doesn't stand around waiting for somebody else to do something. He knows how to apply artificial respira- tion and sets to it at once because he knows that not one moment can be lost. A Scout is kind to everything that lives. 4e prides himself upon doing a, "good turn" every day for which he, of course, will not accept a tip. A Scout promises to do his duty to God and his country, to help other people at all tines, to obey the Scout law, and at all times undertakes to do his best to keep himself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight. Any boy, twelve years of age or over, may become a Boy Scout by joining a troop that has already been started. In case there is no troop in his neighborhood, or if for other rea- sons it is advisable to form a new troop, this may be done after consul- tation with Scout Headquarters in Toronto.. But in any case, the consent of the parent or guardian must be shown on the enrollment blank. The Tsetse Fly.

Racial Origin—English. Source -- Geographical, tional. The family names in this group are interwoven through what is, to our modern training, one of the most in- comprehensible changes in language and spelling—namely, the switching about of .the letters "Y,"' "G," "H," and "W," which occurred about the time the English language reasserted itself in a new form P following the Norman invasion. The explanation lies in peculiarities of pronunciation in those days which are not yet thoroughly understood, but the fact remains in the form of written records that these four letters often were substituted one for an- other. "Yate" was the old English form for "gate." Hence the family names Gates and Yates often come from the same original form "atte Yate," or "atte Gate;" that is to say, "at the gate." But the name of Gates is often met with, in. addition to this form, as "le Gate" or "Le Geyt," and also as "le Weyte," these last three forms be- ing an old English name for the pub- lic watchman, the policeman, we'd call him. The name Byatt le the modern sur- vival of "By -Yate," meaning "by the gate.' And the family name of Ligget represents several stages of shorten- ing from the form "atte Lideyate," that is to say, "at the Lid -gate." Lid gate being the name of a definite lo- cality in England to -day. also occupa- MacNette _ s 1 Variations -Abbot, Abbotson. Racial Origin—Scottish and English. Source—Ocupation. , The family name of MacNab is simp- Iy the Anglicized version' of the Gaelic "Mac-an-Aba," and • it means exactly the same thing as Abbotson, '`son of abbot." From this it might be inferred, in view of the celibacy to which the clergy of both England and Scotland were bound, that there was scandal in- volved in the origin of this group of names. Sucli, however, is not the case. It is not possibie to trace the Eng- lish names to their various individual sources in all cases, of course, as they came into being here and there at dif- ferent times in different parts of the country, but the Gaelic clan system permits us to trace the name in Scot- land back to a single source. MacNab is the name of one of the larger clans, known as "Chlann-an- Aba," or "the descendants of the Ab- bot." This particular abbot held of- ficial position at Glendochart in the reign of King David I. He was not a priest, but a layman. The organiza- tion of the medieval a0neys was not Always entirely religious, and laymen often had official and administrative duties within thein. The English name in some cases may have originated 1s the result of a father of a family having renounced holy orders, but the other explanation appears. to be predominant. The names Abbot and Abbotson are used by septs of the clan MacNab. smwiMS1a404.114,0 fter a ten-dlten-dlay trial o1 insteac.31. of coffee, you're apt to wonder why you stack to the coffee habit so tang INSTANT POSTUM AS DELICIOUS AND HEALTHFUL "There's a asoli: iNSTANT %STTl A aevEIPAoa,• M1Wir al i,nu,m WI,,r,T.° .41 p.a, pollee a raf",M a.et d.nu Certt +w. .1;s t�, sort.,.,..,,. gestion.

The chief reason why 'shoes ordinari- ly are not waterproof is that, the seams admit moisture. Thus the feet .get damp and the wearer is liable to catch cold. • An occasional use of castor oil on shoe uppers will help to make them waterproof, but too much should not be used lest it interfere with the "shine."
