niiIN IN THE JOINTS
• Is An Indication That the Blood
is Thin and Watery.
The first sign of rheumatism is fre-
,
quently a pain and swellin& of one of
the joints. It this is not treated
• through the blood, which is the seat
of the disease, the poison spreads, af-
fecting other joints and tissues—some-
a times rheumatism attacks the heart
1 • and is fatal.
A remedy that has corrected many
cases of rheumatism is Dr. Williams'
Pink Ping. These pills enrich and
purify the blood So that the rKiisonous
rheumatic matter is driven .out of the
system as nature intended. Miss Ger-
tie Deane, Washago, Ont., was attack-
ed with rheumatism and found relief
through Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. she
says:—"About a year ago I was at-
tacked by rheumatism and for two
weeks was 'confined to my bed. The
trouble was •so painful, affecting the
joints of my limbs so that I could not
atand alone. Mother had a box of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills in the house and
•thought they might help me. I began
taking them, and when I had taken
these pills got a further supply, with
the result that the rheurnatiam van-
ished and I was a well girl. I may add
that my mother and two a my sisters
have also used the pills for various ail-
ments with equal success, and now we
are never without them in the housed'
If you are suffering from any con-
dition due to poor, watery blood, or
weak nerves, begin taking Dr, Wil-
liams' Pink Pills now, and note how
your strength and health will improve.
You can get these pills through any
dealer in raedlcine, or by mail, at 50
cents a. box from The Dr. Williams'

"Old Heads on Young Should -I
ers" is the Latest Dream of'
the Scientist.
Imagine Einstein, Marconi, Edison,
and Sia Oliver Loage being able to
hand down their genius to their child-
ren as easily as they, hand down their
estates! Picture a world in which Our
descendants will begin almost where
we left off.
That this is not an idle dream has
been Made abundantly clear by cer-
tain experiments an animals carried
Out by Professor Paul Kammerer, a
biologist of the University of Vienna,
and ,a lifelong friend of Steinacia. the
originator of the "gland" cure. Kam-
merer demonstrated his theory before
British scientists at Cambridge. Plac-
ing before them a specimen of the
sightless newt, he said that he had de-
veloped the creature's eyes.
During thousands of yea'rs' exist-
ence in deep, gloomy caverns, its an-
cestors had not only lost the power of
sight, but even the eyes themselves
had shrunk to mere rudimentary or-
gans beneath the skin. Professor
Kammerer took one of these eyeless
newts at birth and expoted it to red
light for five years. The water in
which the newt lived was continually
illuminated with red light, which was
used because it was found that day-
light merely caused a dark pigment to
form in the skin covering the eyes.
Several generations at newts were
subjected to the red light until one
group finally appeared witi1. eyes that
pushad through the head. The des-
cendants of this group also had eyes,
The professor then showed Salamand-
ers whose skies had °banged color as
a result of living on a background dif-
ferent from that to which. they had
been accustomed. He said the change
was permanent and hereditary. He
then exhibited a land -dwelling toad,
having the horny pads of the water -
toad, a wonder which the professor
had accomplished after a series of ex-
periments.
These demonstrations were follow-
ed by speculations as to the possibility
of applying the results achieved on
lower animals to human beings, so
that the good qualities a man culti-
vated in his own lifetime. could be
passed on to his children as "In-
stincts."
Kammerer himself says that further

Surnames ad Their Origin
URQUHART
Racial Origin—Scottish.
Source—A locality.
Urquhart was the name of one of
the most important and influential,
though one of the smallest of the
clans of the Scottish Highlands.
But though the clan was pure Gas-
-, lic, of that same stock which crossed
over from Ireland toward the Close of
those migrations which are respons-
ible for most of the blood of the High-
lands to -day, the elan, name was not
formed from the given name of a
chieftain,
In Ireland the clan names were al-
most without exception derived from
the names of the chieftains who first
elevated their following to the dignity
of clanship; mostly from their given
names, bat at times froin their nick-
names or sobriquets. In Scotland the
exceptions are more numerous, and
that of the Urquharts is one.
Though the "Clann Urachadian," as
It is styled in the Gaelic tongue is
• adnaittedly an old one, there is some
vagueness as to its ea,rly history, but
it appears to have been closely con-
nected with the clans MacKay and
Forbes. The name of Urquhart does
not appear in the historical records
as having been adopted by the clan
until about 1300 A.D., at which time
the chief of the clan was also the com-
mander of a castle of that name, and
the tradition goes that the clan name
was adopted from the tame of the
castle.

BUCKLEY
Racial Origin—English.
Source—Localities.
Here is a family name originnally
descriptive of the bearer by reference
to the place from which he had come.
There are, however, different mean-
ings to the two -place names from
which the family name is variously
derived,
One of these is the name of a com-
munity in Chester, England. It is
Bulkeley. It may also at various
times have been a countryside name
for many localities in different sec-
tions of England. The "ley," in the.
speech of the medieval English, often
meant an inclosed place or pasture for
animals, and Buckley was originally
simply a "bullock -ley."
This, however, does not explain cer-
tain old forms of the family name
which are to be found in the medieval
records, "de Bokele" and "de Buckey,"
which could not in so short a period
have been derived from "Bulkeley."
They represent rather the local des-
tription of pastures or inclosures for
Buckdeer.
In both cases the family name orig-
inally bore the prefix "de," meaning
"of," and clearly indicating the orig-
inal descriptive nature of the surname.
As was the rule, these prefixes in the
vast majority of cases were dropped
as meaningless after a generation or
two; using the name, made it descrip-
tive rather of the bearer himself than
the place from which he had come.
Realized Ambition.

bition in being able to cut monkey-

ball. Attending marriage and funeral
feasts is another favorite occupation.
Most of the laborious work is left to

$4.60 Profit From Each Hen.
By S. W. Knife.
A short time ago an article appeared
In the "Pickering News" stating that
"E. W. Ruddy, who has a country re-
sidence there, cleared $4,600 profit
from 1,000 hens for the preceding
twelve months," and employed all help
required to look after them. This cer-
tainly shows there is money to be
made from hens. How? By proper
feeding, good care and attention.
Poultry raisingn is as much a business
as any other business and to make a
success one must understand what he
is -doing and why.
The winter is not the natural laying
season, 'therefore to get good egg pro-
duction, •When prices are high, the
hens must be fed with thai object al-
ways in view. They need exercise to
keep the body warm,'which should be
provided by making them work
(scratch) for every grain of feed. The
feed should be stimulating and body-
building, such as wheat and corn, say
40% Of each, making up the other
20% with Western oats, buckwheat,
peas, etc. It is best just to feed
enough at a time so as to keep the
bird always ready for the next meal.
A lot has been said for and against
"hot mash." Mr. Ruddy fed hot mash
as a mid-day meal all through the win-
ter. In the average home there is
usually a considerable amount of
table scrap which can, profitably be
utilized, mixing it along with the. lay-
ing mash and fed in a "crumbly" con-
dition, not sloppy. Feed at mid-day
and just enough; if you feed toe much
the birds will go to roast, which Is not
desirable. Why not feed hot mash in
the morning? Because. birds 'will

The Gift of the "Gamp."
Brussels appears to be the only city
which has a well -organized umbrella -
borrowing bureau. The annual sub-
scription is low, but if every umbrella
user were to join such a society, its in-
come would be enormous,
The idea is rather similar to that in
force at the British Museum, National
Gallery, and other public institutions,
where you are required to deposit
your "gamp" before being allowed to
go round the galleries. You get a
ticket of metal or a bone disc, which
will redeem. your umbrella at any
time; only in the case of the umbrella
exchange, the umbrella is not your
own but the property of the society.
Each member on paying his sub-
scription, receives a token, usually of
metal stamped with an index number,
which he carries in his pocket instead
of an. numbrella in his hand. When
caught by the rain, all he has to da is
to go to one of the society's agencies,
which are tobacco shops, restaurants,
and big stores, and hand over the tok-
en, to be immediately provided with
an umbrella.
When the rain ceases the borrower
deposits his umbrella in the next
agency he happens to pass, and in ex-
change receives another counter.
