Bore is a family name that is likely to puzzle you. Forgetting .any partici lar lsnowledgo you may have of it, it looks more -as though it might be Italian than anything else. But all those ot this name that you have ever met have probably been. Irish. ass a matter et feet, the name itself is Nor- man French. But though the name and the origin- al riginal blood o! the Costellos was Norman, they really bave more right to cal! themselves Irish than any one in Canada except the Indian. has to gall hint, ref a Canadian. For the (Cos- tellos Il?„eau ;n be Irish long before eery ('€tnett.•iuns, except .;perhaps; cer- tain Nor-i'I"tl`n. began to be Cana- dians. Tee Costello clan in Ireland became a fixture there in the early days of the Anglo-Norman invasion. alt derived its naniei front one Costello Fitz -Gilbert, who was the son of Gilbert de Angule, one of the first of the invaders. As was the case with many. of these Nor- man chieftains, they gathered around them, when they settled in either Ire- land or Scotland, many native follow ere together with those ot their own race and, falling into the Gaelic cus- tom, gradually evolved their own clans, adopting the Gaelic language and the Gaelic system of names. Thus, those who would -otherwise have been known (under the Norman system) as '' itz-Costello, ' became instead "O'CosteIlo and finally just Costello. But it has been so long since the eleventh and twelfth centuries -that it is a safe bet that but little of the original Norman blood remains in the veins of the average person bearing this name to -day. FRANCOMB. Variations—Francom, ,Frankham. Racial Origin --Anglo-Norman, Source--r]escriptive. Here is a group .of family nam the meaning and origin of which, you will find it difficult to guess, tor in each one of the three cases the present spelling of the ending is misleading. It Is not an uncommon thing for names of Anglo-Norman origln to change in this fashion, and the reason lies in the peculiar mixture of the old Anglo-Saxon tongue and the French of the Normans and from which modern Englieh is the outgrowth. It must bo remembered that the mixture occurred in u peculiar way. The Normans, for a couple of centu.rles after the con- quest. spoke nothing but French and their tunglie was but slightly changed by ;he infiuel.ce of the Anglo-Saxon, Titen came a period when, as a result of political separation from. Normandy, the Normans began to adopt the Eng- lish, which, in radically changed form, Tinnily again became the dominating element of speech. It was natural that when this final stage was reached the meanings of the Norman names were (Middy forgotten and there was a tendency to •spell them as they were pronounced at the time. In the Middle Ages the "middle class," lying between the nobility and' their vassals in the social and political scale, were •known as "freemen, and. Freeman has come down to us as a family name. The Norman equivalent to this word was "franc homms," or as It was spelled at various times, "franchome," fraunoh-humme" and "fraunchome." It came to be pro- nounced, after it had become a sur- name, "fraucom," whence the spell- ings Fraueomb and Prankhom have developed,. DO "Box Numbers" Baffle You? While the system of "box numbers" addresses used by advertisers in news- papers has' been in operation for a ad many years, there are some tpeo e who do not know what' a. "box umber" really means. The "box number" came into being es. a 'result of the great increase in the use of newspapers ae a medium of advertising. It helped to save con- tusion and labor. .A person ivllo advertises in a. news- 'er may not wish filo disclose his areas. In such cases, when he in sserts the advertisement he informs the clank: at the counter that he desires a "box member." The clerk gives him a receipt on which is a number. It is this number that appears in. the ad- vertiseln en l•; Tor ins tame, "Apply Box No: When the ailvei tiscr calls for .re, Tee,; iie rise! :s his receipt, and the 1,, Vi to him. Perhaps p rn"box 117llr.,Et ' o do will: the fact that usually the replies are -kept in boxes, being docketed in pigeon- holes. Some newspapers trade journals in particulare-allow readers . to send money in payment of goods -advertis- ed. This "deposit" is kept by the newspaper unt'iI the buyer receives the goods, When it is sent on to the seller. By this means the buyer is assured of fair play, for if the advertiser fails to carry out his part of the bargain, the buyer's deposit is returned.

Mapes. ease Dust Explosions The recent explosion of a bin of oat- meal in Settle London works is said to .have been 4ii,e to an admixture of dust and air. It is a cous and un pleasant fact that suchuria mixture is extremely explosive, and that .some of the most terrible accidents in indus- trial history have been caused by dust floating in dry air. Coal dust is specially dangerous, and it is in order to guard against dust explosions in mines that all dry mines have, by law, to be regularly watered. The dreadful diaster at the Trade stun flour mills at Glasgow was caused by a spark igniting the fine flour dust with which the air 'Was filled, and re- sulted in the loss of twelve lives., The mill itself was roaring furnace ire side five ?ninetes The worst explosion of the kind on record was that which destroyed the Washburn corn mills in Minneapolis, reputed to be the largest in the world. The result was a loss of eighteen lives and a million dollars wort`). of prop-' evty. In the year 1908 Paris was shaken by a most tremendous explosion, taus - ed by the blowing up of the great Say sugar refinery, near the Orleans Station. It is believed that a spark from a dynamo ignited the finely pow- dered sugar floating its the air. Forty- two worlpeople were injured, and the damage Was $90,000, In the early days of the last cert. Wry, all such explosions were attri- buted to escapes of gas, or to lightn- ing flashes; yet as early as 1815 Sir Iiumphltr Davy semis to have bad suspicion of the real reason, and to have made some investigations. Later, the Royal Commission of i8pl went iniac the matter more elese- ly, and their investigations proved that explosions in coal -mines, even. when not caused by dust, were often aggravated by dust floating in the air. It is not really difficult to under- etand tine why- and wherefore of such ex- losions. To light a fire, you figs chop up wood into small sticks or shavings, and the smaller these ere the more readily they burn. The ream son isf that the net of eonibustiona is merely the combination of the carbon of the wood with the oxygen of the hr. Naturally, therefore, when a. Particle of dust is floating in the air, with oaeygen all around it, there only needs' the requisite degree of heat for that particle to burst into fierce name, which of course is instantly connmunic.- ated to all the other atoms of dust in succession.

Nature intended every girl and every woman to be happy, active and healthy. Yet too many of them find their lives saddened by suffering—nearly always because their blood is to blame. All those unhappy girls and women with colorless cheeks, dull skins, and sunk- en lustreless eyes, are in this condi- tion because tbey have not enough red blood n i thea i r veins to keep them well and in the charm of health. They suf- fer from depressing weariness and periodical headaches. Dark lines i from under their eyes, their heart pal- pitates violently after the slightest ex- ertion, and they are often attacked with fainting spells. These are only a few of the miseries of bloodlessness. When the biood becomes thin and watery it can be enriched through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and the troubles that come from poor blood disappear. In almost every neighborhood you will fled some form- erly ailing woman, or pale breathless girl who has a good word to say for this medicine. Among them there is Miss Laura Monaghan, Campbeliton, P.E.I,, who says:—"Before using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I was in a badly run down condition. I was pale, thin and scarcely able to go about. The least exertion made my heart palpi- tate so violently that I .actually was afraid one of those spells .might carry me off. Often my nights were sleep- less, and as the treatment I was tak- ing did not help me I was almost in despair. Finally a friend advised .the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and in the course of a few- weeks after be- ginning this treatment there was a decided improvement in my condition. I continued using the pills, and am now enjoying good health, I am glad to give you my experience in the hope', that some other sufferer may find the way to better health." • These pills are sold by all medicine dealers or may be had by mail at 50 cente a box or six boxes for 22.50 from Thepr.

When men are up against a dlfficui- ty they are not satisfied until they havo got over it. The result of one of these difficulties in overcoming Na- ture has taken the form of the strang- est railway in the world. Tho question that had worried the engineers for a long time was how to 'improve the transport of goods through the vast Belgian Congo to the coast. Great tracts of this country are swamps, intersected by ridges of steep cliff,. In consequence, river transport is the only practical way by which goods can bo carried to the sea. But the number of waterfalls, ra pide, and shallows havo made this a tedious ius nea s as the cargoes have to be unloaded many times on one journey, and carried down the bank for some distance to the next boat. However, as tho result of experi- ments in Belgium, it is hoped this dif- ficulty will be overcome. The inven- tion consists of twin boats bracketed side by side, with a space of three feet or so between the two hulls. Along navigable water this double boat travels in the normal way, pro- pelled by a screw at the stern of each hull. But over all rapids and ,hallow parts a single railway line has been constructed, supported on trestles, the rail rising up from the waterlevel at each end of the unnavigable section. Guided in by two guard rails, the boat floats up over the end of the rail; then the 'wheels between the two hulls engage with the line. The driving power from the engines is switched off from the screws, and drives the wheels in 'contact with the rail. The boat runs forward on the line, and slowly lifts clear of the water. In this way the boat travels by rail over the rapids, the hulls hanging one on dither side, and so preserving he balance. In this ingenious way the boat, in making its nonstop run to the sea can rise out of the water and pass over a steep waterfall, or skim just above the surface of shallows. At a narrow gorge the boat can avoid it altogether by leaving the: river and cutting across land on its single rail, rattling along eeleared pathway through thejungle like a New York overhead railway.

Overworking the Brain. Don't be afraid of overworking the brain; your can't do it. You can't think too much. "The more the mind does," says a prominent medical authority, "'the more it can do." Another well-known doetor said re Gently: "In all my practice as a physieian dealing with nervous and mental dia. eases, I can, say without hesitation' that I have not met a single case of nervous or mental trouble causedby too much thinking or overstudy*. What produces' trental trouble is worry, emotional excitement, or lack of inter- est in one's work." So there is no need to be afraid. The more you think, study, or plan, the better it is for you, because you are training your mental powers. You cannot overwork the brain as long as you keep it healthy with outdoor ex- ercise whenever possible. Then it will recuperate of its own account. It is worry that destroys the brain worry, .fear, bad feelings, and meat-, a1 idleness.
