direct action on the blood, enriching
and purifying it, thus bringing new
strength to every organ and nerve in
the body. In this way this medicine
has brought new Health to tih,ousands
of weak and despondent people.
Anrang those who awe their present
health to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is
Mrs. Clarence E. Misner, Chipman's
Brook, N.S., who says:—"I bad a very
severe attack of influenza, but after
the characteristic symptom of that
trouble had passed, I was left in a very
weak and depressed condition. I could
not keep on my feet for half an hour at
a time, and words can scarcely tell
how badly I did! feel. I had been tak-
ing the medicine my doctor gave me,
but it was not helping me, and as I
had used Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills on
a former occasion with great benefit I
decided to try them again. •I got half
a dozen boxes, and soon after begin-
ning their use I could feel my strength
returning. By the time I had used up
my supply of pills, my old-time
strength had come back, I could do
mY housework and keep an my feet all
day without feeling used up as form-
erly. I feel that these pills have been
worth their weight in gold to lite, and
I strongly recommend them to other
weak, run down people." •
You can get these pills through any
dealer in inedicine or by mail, post-
paid, at 50c a box from The Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Co„ Brockville, Ont.

Who'd have thought "aperio"
Gave the sweet degree?
Open windows, open brooks,
Are its prophecy.
Open eyes to loveliness
Of the bridal spring,
In a midet of emerald
Shyly burgeoning.
Open souls to greet the gifts
Of a heavenly hand,
Pouring glories without stint
O'er a radiant land.
Open bird throats, rending buds,
Add their jocund share;
With such lures the open sloughs
We can surely dare;
Unafraid of sucking bogs
In the woodland lanes,
Tramp we home with mired feet,
Proud of our campaigns.
"April, April," how it lilts
With the bubbling stream!
"April, April," thrushes call
Through the shower and gleam.
Winter, then, our open hearts
Shall no more annoy;
They shall greet the April dawn
With an answering joy,

Surnames and Their Origin
DENTON
Variation—Dinton..
Racial Origin—English.
Source—A place name.
You might suspect from the ending
of this family name that it had been
originally the name of a place, used
first to indicate the place of residence
of some early bearer.
And so it was. "Ts" is a better Word,
for the town from which this name
came in the vast majority of instances,
so far as the available records indi-
caite•, is still in existence. Denton is
the name of a place in the county of
Buckingham, England.
The manner by which the commu-
nity got its name. is a simple one.
"Den," in the speech of the Anglo-
Saxon, had a slightly different mean-
ing from that which now is conuuoniy
ascribed to It. In the days. before the
coming of the Normans it indicated a
depressed section of ground or valley:
Naturally, such places were likely to
be wooded and to become the refuge
of animals; hence the modern frequent
figurative meaning of the word. Den-
ton simply meant the "town in the val-
ley,"
FARNHAM
Variations—Farnum, Farnam.
Racial Origin—English.
Isere is another family name which
is simply the development of a sur-
name indicating originally that the
person bearing it had come from the
place referred to.
The place name, like the surname, 1s
spelled Farnham, and it is located in
Surrey, England.
The name ratter clearly reveals the
method by which it originated, and the
fact that it is a combination of purely
Anglo-Saxon words. The latter fact
indicates, aside from historical re-
cord, that it was an established com-
munity before the coming to England
of William the Conqueror and his Nor-
man hosts.
"Fearn" in the speech of the Anglo-
Saxons moans "fern," being in fact the
parent word of oar modern English
word "ham," as has been explained in
other articles of thls series!, is an ele-
ment frequently found in English
place names, indicating a village, a
word which is obsolete in the language
to -day except in the form of one of its
diminutives, "hamlet." Farnham, .there-
fore, bears literally the poetic name of
"the village of ferns.'
Your Job Is Your Key.
"I will never get ahead here. There
is nobody here that cares a continent-
al whether I get on or not. It doesnyt
make any difference how hard I work
or how I do my work, nobody pays
any attention."
Now, I often hear remarks like that.
Employees say, "What's the use'1 I
don't propose to wear my life out for
nothing. I am just going to do enough
to draw my salary. I will look for.
something better."
1Vly friend, do you realize that that.
something better waiting for you de-
pends on how well you can do your
work where you are right now? Your
present job is the key that will open
the door to the place above you, and
the door is not likely to open until
you open it. Sticcess doors don't open
themselves. They don't open very
easily.—O. S. Marden.

SPRING WEATHER
HARD ON BABY
•
The Canadian Spring weather—one
day mild and bright; the next raw and
blustery, is extremely hard on the
baby. Canditio•ns are such that the
mother cannot take the little oiee out
far the fresh air so touch to be de-
sired. 1Ie is confined to the house,
which is often over -heated and badly
ventilated. • I3e catches calci; his
little stomaeh and bowels become dis-
ordered, and the mother soon has a
sick baby to look after. To prevent
this an occasional dose of Baby's Own
Tablets should be given, They • regu-
late the stomach and bowels, thus pre-
venting or relieving colds, simple
fevers, colic or any other of the many
minor ills of childhood. The Tablets are
sold by medicine dealers or by maid at

Forest Fires.
The season of forest fire danger is
approaching and the forest services,
federal and provincial, and forest pro-
tective associations, are making pre-
parations to combat this great de-
stroyer of forest wealth. Everything
that modern science has devised will
be used in the campaign—patrols,
lookout stations, telephones, 'tele-
graphs and heliographs, , portable
pumps, gasoline trucks, power boats,
railway speeders, and aeroplanes.
These are all valuable aids; but the
great engine for fighting forest fires
is public opinion.
Nearly all forest fires are caused by
human carelessness, therefore when
public opinion sets itself solidly
against this carelessness, and holds it
to be a crime against the nation, a
large part of the cause of fires will
disappear. Patriotic citizens can do
a great service for Canada by being
scrupulously careful with their own
use of fire when in the woods and by
helping to build up, whether they live
in the city or the country, a body of
public opinion about fires which will
deter the careless and strengthen the
hands of those who protect the forests.
In proportion to its size a fly walks
thirty-five times as fast as a human
being.

A Letter from Mrs. Smith Tells How
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Helped Her
Trenton, Ont.—" I am writing to you
in regard to Lydia E. Pinkhani s Vege-
table Compound. I
would not be with-
out it. I have taken
it before each of my
children was born
and afterwards and
find it a great help.
Before my first baby
was born Y had short-
ness of' breath and
ringing in my ears.
Sea ", , A, r 1 11 I felt as if I would
;. never pull through:
lr�` ` >: One clay a friend of
myltusband told him what the Vegeta-
ble Compound had done for his wife and
advised him to take a bottle hone for
me. After the fourth bottle f was a
different woman. I have four children
pow, and I always find the Vegetable
Compound a great help as it seems to
make confinement easier. I recommend
it to my friends."— Mrs. FILED . H.
SMITH, John St., Trenton, Ont.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound is an excellent medicine for bat-
pectant mothers, and should be taken
during the entireperiod. It bas a gen-
eral effect to strengthen and tone up the
entire system, so that it may work in
every respect effectually as nature in-
tended. Thousands of women testify
to this fact. 0
Hurry Mothver! A teaspoonful of
"California Fig Syrup" now will thor-
oughly clean the little bowels, and in a
few hours you have -a well, playful
child again. Even if cross, feverish,
bilious, constipate:l or full of cold,
childrenlove its "fruity" taste, and
mothers can rest easy because it never
fails to work all the souring food and
nasty bile righat out of the stomach
and bowels without griping or upset-
ting the child.
Tell your druggist you want only the
genuine "California Fig Syrup" which
has directions far babies and children
of all ages printed on bottle. Mother,
you must say "California," Refuse
any imitation.
Why Are Negroes BI,l eh?
There have been many theories as
to why there should be black, white,
yellow, and red people in the world.
It has even been asserted that Adam
was black.
The latest theory regarding the
color of the skin is that it turns en-
tirely upon the question of salt. The
writer of an ingenious book brings to-
gether a mass of evidence to show
that the darker the race the more it
lacks salt as an item of diet.
It seems that in some parts of
Africa salt is such a luxury that the
Negroes suck rock salt as we would
confectionery. They describe a rich
man as one who eats salt with his
tneals.
The author of the salt theory states
that each Briton eats about sixteen
pounds of salt every year. In India,'
however, salt is taxed, and the aver-
age consumption per head may riot be
more than three or four pounds. As
everybody knows, the natives of India,
although they would resent being
called "black • men," are certainly not
white.
It is remarkable how wide Is the
difference in complexion, say, between
the ' natives of Samoa- and those ` of
New Britain. Anthropologists would
say they were of different races, and
probably they are, but it 'seems. that.
"access' to salt" is the cause of the
difference between the blacks and the
light browns!
So scarce is salt in Tahiti. that Cap-
tain Cook,:, the great naGigator, de-
scribed how salt water was a royal
drink, taken with great solemnity, a
sip at a time, on ceremonial occasions.
The writer finds, however, thea people
who live 'near the sea in that part of
th.e-:world tend to grow lighter in
complexion,
