The rich . red blood which these pills actually make, strengthens the whole system. The nerves -are strengthened, headaches vanish, the appetite improves, and once again there is joy in life. Among the thousands benefited by the use of this medicine is Mrs. Jas, Robinson, Oshawa; who says: -"Some time ago I was In an anaemic condition and so weak I would faint away at times. I had no appetite, could not do. my housework; in fact life seemed scarce- ly worth living. I was exceedingly pale and tried doctor's medicine with nogood result. Then one .day I saw Dr. Williams,' Pink Pills recommended for a similar condition, and I got a supply. I• continued taking the pills until I had used about a dozen boxes, and they have made me a well woman. I can now do a good day's work about the house,; have no more•. fainting spells • and can go ..bout more actively than I did before. I believe these pills lust .the thing for pale, .weak girls and women,, and if given a fair trial will do for thein what they have done for me."

Qne of the hest examples of this is the placing of the engagement -ring on the third singer. 'rens is; the result of an old belief, still widely taken for fact, that there le. a nerve in the third linger in direct communicationwith the heart. Tiffs` gave rise to the Idea of placing the, rixig on the third finger, Of course, thefe is not a shred of. truth in this belief. The third finger is- no differeut from any of the others; but, all the same, it has .developed is to a custom, Another equally curious belief Is that, should a person cut himself in the space between the first finger and, thumb, he is more than likely to get yoelc-jaw.. -It is a 'belief absolutely without foundation, except, perhaps, that a wound in that part of the hand, owing to its free' movement, takes• a long time to heal, and is therefore more likely to get dart into it, which might cause lock-jaw. A. common belief exists that our bodies undergo complete change once in seven years. As to why seven Years nobody knows-, but many people have that firm conviction. Actually the human body is under- going change the whole time, In mov- ing an eyelid, even, some of the tissue. or muscle is- literally being burnt up, and is renewed from the blood. The very process of seeing or thinking des- treys sone of the brain. A boxer will lose as much as nine pounds in weight in a single fight, • which means that that much muscle has • been deeom- ptosed. In this way it will be seen that dif- ferent Peoples • bodies •are completely renewed in different perigds of time, those in hot countries, or leading a strenuous• Life, ' being completely re- newed in the shortest time. l Ask for Minard's, and take no other. What We Call Dust. Dust is made up of particles of un- burned carbon from smoke, fragments ofwttd1, cotton and hair, living or- ganisms and finely -divided mineral matter. All, are oonstantly being cast into the air and they slip through cracks of houses and settle. After bil- lions of particles have fallen we say the floor is dusty.

This is not the same family name as the Fox which comes • from the Anglo- Norman source ,in the given name of "Fu1ke" or "Fulque." Though they may not look it, Fox, Sinnoch, • Seeny,- Reynard and Ray- - nardson are all really variations of the same name,some of them being Anglicized variations of the Irish pro- nnirciation. of the name , and some of them being Anglicized- variations of the meaning. • It .came about this way. There are two noteworthy figures in Irish his- tory is -tory,; who were founders of clans or. septs from which many bearing the foregoing names take their ancestry. One of these was "Flans," the 169th monarch of Ireland, 876 A.D., who was known as "the Fox." The other was a certain "Teige," who lived about 100. year,s. later, •also • kIlown a:s: "the Fox".. —"Teige an Sionnacb'. From these two surnames came the family or clan names "MacSionnaighe." According to sound it has become Anglicized to the forms Sinnoch and Sinnock Ac- cording to meaning it has become Fox, Reynard and Reynardson. 'MAY Variations ---Mayo, Meith. Racial Origin—Irish. Source -A sobriquet. If your name is May, and you are fat, it Isquite appropriate in the his- torical sense, for if your name traces back to Ireland it islikely that you inherit a tendency toward corpulency. The Gaelic form of this family name, which is quite old, is " 0 Mlieith. It had, of course, gradually become a family name in our modern sense, through nta.ny centuries of use as a clan name. It is a name which dates back considerably farther than the oldest of the English family names, or those of any other country in fact. As nearly as can be estimated from the ancient Irish records; the Clan O'Mheitli came into being about 350 A. D., in the days _when, the Irish were still pagan, and the power;of their em- pire was .felt in • raids and invasions clear down into Italy. The clan was founded by a chieftain named "Muireadach," known as "Muir- eadach Meith" ("the Fat"). A Belated Discovery, 11irs.

Why is it that anaccompanist doesn't share equal honors with a singer? We go to a conoert and applaud loudly the singing of some soloist, but the poor pianist who often gets the lion's share ofthe work goes unnoticed. It 'isn't fair, is. it? It doesn't take any great stretch of the imagination to see that a song wihout an accompaniinent is practical- ly useless. ^Indeed, oftentimes i it is the accompaniment which make a song. Picture, if you can, anyone at- tempting to sing Tennyson's, "Cross- ing the Bar" without the piano or or- gan accompanying the soloist. And yet when the soloist finishes, the ap- plause . and -cheering is directed to- ward the singer, seldom toward the ac- companist, Sometimes • an accompan; ist is not even mentioned in a concert notice. He is taken for "granted Some few years ago a young lady and gentleman sought to draw atten- tion tui this anomaly -by giving" a "Song and eci Accompaniment"r •t al„in , Lon- don, England. The young man who did the accompanying,,chose the songs and played the whole program of about r twenty numbers by heart—a feat of memory that surely is not com- mon—and yet not a s.ngle critic (and' there were many present) noticed it or thought it worth recording. This aricle is not written to dispar- age the work of the singer. Rather is it a plea for a higher appreciation of the art of accompanying. And good- ness knows, with a dearth of accom- panists as there is to -day, we need to. encourage the art in every possible way. Give a thought to the accom- panisti We Get You, Willie.

'Very sorry, ma'am, but this is ,,a draper'., mild thread can be had only at a haberhasher's." "But isn't a haberdasher a person who deals in men's fmrndshings?" "Not in Bile 'least, madam. It is a shop' of plus., needless buttons, thread and the like. There is on a bit of a vay on." I found the haberd'asher's shop, which was merely a notion store. Sure of my ground at last, I asked a rosy English girl for a spool of white thread. She fetched a ladder and climbed to the highest shelf, where after some rummaging shefound a ball of cord! `Ol, no," I protested; "I wanted thread," `tCertaimly, ma'am; this is thread" "Help!" I almost cried. Then I patiently explained: "What I want is -is something with which to mend, to stew a shirt waist." "Shirt waist? Shirt waist?" The girl_ pondered. ' I pointed desperately to the shirt waist that I was wearing "Oh, blouse!" she cried•. "Perhaps what, you wish is a reel of cotton." • Thereupon •sive' produced, joy be, my coveted spool of thread!

It has been said by a great musician that the music of the brass' band is the -most perfect express -ion of a nation's. :feelings, of its Joys and ' s•orrow&, its hepes and asirations,; To no other appgai- will the masses Of people, mem, women ;and children, rise so quickly. The music of the brass band fires am- bition in the laggard. 'Many a soldier was inspired to bravery in battle by its music. It gives- them an indefinite sense of exhilaration, it makes their hearts beat faster, it smoothes' the dis- cords • of nature into harmony, ,it arouses thefinest enthusiasm and it puts • bravery in the heart that is timid. Music is a great force in,civiIizatriont. Every period Of intellectual ac'tivity,. acral, or political, reacted upon music, To illustrate, weneed but refer to- the formal character of the music of the period' preceding the French revolu- tion and the freedom and vigor im- parted by the stpirit. of Romanticism which followed in the wake of that great political movement, a difference strikingly illustrated in the music of Haydn and Beethoven, Clements and Schumann. The science of music had a High place in Chinese philosophy, the sages alone comprehended the canons ;and the mandarins were con- si ered d 'superior in point of musical knowledge. Interesting dates are given showing bow early the. Chinese had developed a science of music. Iii 2277 B,C., for example, there were 22 writers-onthe dance and music, 23 on ancient music, and 25 on the construc- tion of the scales. These facts imply many years of, previous development before the time when works treating of the science of music ,would be pre- pared. Gum of Sudan.
