IRRITABLE PEOPLE
Are T,Jsually Victims of Poor
Blood and Weak Nerves.
Irritability is one of the manifesta-
tions of nervousness,, and it becomes
worse as the nerves become more un-
strung and approach astate of e: -
haustion.. No one is irritable from pre-
ference, and this state is often only
the outward expression of a great steal
of physical suffering which friends do
not realize. R is accompanied by
headaches, Sleeplessness, nervous in-
digestion and depression, Unless it is
promptly checked mare serious trou-
ble develops.
The treatment for the earlier stages
of nervousness, as well as the more
advanced condition, is one of nutrition
of the nerve cells, requiring a tonic.
As the nerves get their nourishment
from the blood, the treatment must be
directed towards building up the blood -
Dr. Williams' Pial, Pills act directly en
the blood, and bale) proved of le
greatest benefit in a great many cases
of this kind.. A tendency to anaemia
er bioodieesness, shown by most nes-
vous people, is also corrected by these
tonic pills. This IS shawul by the case
of Mr. Kenneth R. McDonald, Tarbot,
N.S.* whoa says: "For a long time I was
a severe sufferer front nervous trou-
ble, with the result that I gew pale and
weak, lost weight, slept poorly. and
always felt tired out. Various medi-
cines l tried had no beneficial cited,
until finally I was persuaded to try Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, I found these
just what I needed, as after taking
thein a couple of months I not° only
gained in weight, but felt stronger,
more cheerful and better in every way.
I feel that I cannot praise these pi:ls
too highly for what they have dem for
me."

A Peep at the Future of Britain's Aviation
Aviation" is one of the youngest of
the sciences, It is only 141 years since
the fir, t weird-loaidng balloon design-
ed by Montgo11er rose into the air be-
fore the astonished eyes at King Louis
XVI., carrying wit: it a emir, a duck,
and a sheee,
The aeroplane has been 'with is
barely nineteen years, says an English,
writer. It was in 1903 that a machine
made by the Wright Brothers and
driven by an engine of eight horse-
power rose into the air with a human
passenger.
Singe those days progress lies been
rapid. We have machines now wuose
engines develop as much power as
railway locomotives. They can carry
loads up to four tons at speeds of more
than 100 miles an hour..
Every month that basses seen come
new improvement in aircraft. Engines
have now been designed which, though
they will develop 1,200 horse power,
are yet so light that four men can car-
ry theist with eziae, A enaaclidue made
entirely of steel'has been tested and
found almost indestructible. Invent-
ors in several countries have had sus-
cesses with helicopters, tnaolbines that
require no "%lee off" on level ground,
but can rise from tine space of a tenuis
court straight lute the air,
What is to be the future ot aviation
in view of all its new wonders? Major-
General Sir F. 11. Sykes, G.B,l3„ Kee
B., C,111,G., who during the last part of
the war was Chief of the Air Staff,
tells us something of Haat in leis boob,
"Aviation in Peace and War." We can
nen longer rely solely upon tine Navy
to defezld us, lee argues, for unless we
can keep the air as we 'seep the seas,
we are at the mercy of any foreign
foe with great fleets, of aircraft,
The giant 'planes of to -day can car-
ry six or eight huge bombs each weigh-
ing half a ton, and can drop them ac-
curately upon ship, camp, or town.
Sir F. H. Sykes believes that the
warfare of the future will begin with
air attacks. "Wbereaa in 1914 14 was
twbnty Bays between the declaration
of war and the .exchange of the firet
shots," he writes, "in the next war the
air battle may be joined within as
many aours, and au air attack iauaeh-
ed aituost slniultaneously with the dem
claration of wart'
Huge bombing machines will as-
semble, he believes, as soon as, war is
imminent, and once It bas begun they
will make straight for important
towns, mobilization ceutree, arsenals,
harbors, and railways. A few swift
blows might so paralyze an enemy that
lie could not put up a fight at all,
Aircraft cant new drop poison gas
upon towns beneath. It may be eon -
tattled in bombs, or it may simply be
sprayed from the skies, falling by its
own weight and dealing death to all
whom it reaches. in recent tests aero-
Planes using a new gas more potent
than anything previously devised dee-
troyed every living thing on the
ground over which they passed.
But though we must be prepared
against air attacks, civil aviation i$
equally important.
Steamer- and trains have reached
their highest possible speed, it le to
the air that we must look for the tra-
vel of the future. For the price of le
battleship an air ioute to Australia
could be organized, the value, et which
would be beyond eoutemplation.
Fair Enough.
The visitor was examining the class.
"Can any little boy tell me what a
fishnet is made of?" he Inquired.
"A lot of little ;boles tied together
with strings," smiled the never failing
bright boy.

Surnames and Their Origin
GURNEY
Racial Origin—French.
Source ---A locality.
Here is a family name whose origin
you would probably have to 'wander
over the leap of Europe to find, it you
did not first hunt for clues among the
historical records of medieval England
or France.
And at that yon 'would be likely to
miss it en account of the difference in
spelling, even though the pronuncia-
tion of to -day IS not so very far from
that of the French in the Middle Ages,
It is one of those fancily names
which were originally descriptive ot.
the locality or community from 'which
the first bearers came, and also one of
those whi* were brought into Eng-
land first by the Normans,
The locality in question is that of
Gournai, in Normandy.
The Normans, by their very pres-
enee in England, contributed largely
to the rise of the family name. The in-
vading army, made up of soldiers gath-
ered from many localities, and many of
them bearing the same given name,
cutting their old ties behind them, and
settling helter-skelter in a new conn.
try, found frequent use for surnames
which would distinguish one Geoffrey
from another or one John from an-
other. And in the majority of cases it
was customary among them to refer
to the place from which a man had
conte, whereas within the Anglo-Saxon
community the tendency would have
, 4
been to refer to some physical peculi-
rit.y or to a man's parentage,
LOCKHART
Variations Lockart, Locker, Loc.
ha rdt,
Racial Origin---Engilsh and German.
Source—A given name.
Here is a family name the origin of
which looks simple. But it's it bit
more difficult to trace than you might
imaging, for when you cifg into its his-
tory you find out that it has little to
do either with a lock or a heart,
As a family name it appears to trace
back either to the old Anglo-Saxon
given name of "Lacer" (tbe "c" hast
the "k" pronunciation bore) or to the
old German form of "Loobard "
Both of these given names appear
every once in a while in the medieval
history of England and Germany, as
well as of Normandy, for while the
Normans spoke French, they were of
Teutonic origin, and most of the no-
menclature was Teutonic. `
When it comes to flgttring out the
meaning of these given naives, things
are not quite so clear. The last sylla-
ble, "hart," is one which is frequently
met with in old Teutonic names, and
had in a general way the meaning of
"strength" and "bravery." In tact we
get our modern word "hardy" from
this same root. But though there are
many theories to account for the
"loch," there are none which aro cer-
tain enough even to bother quoting.
Three Lives.
To live for self and from self all the
time,
This man bas not found the way;
He sees not, he hears not, be Cassa not,
be fears not,
His life Is a game of play;
To live for God, yet from self all the
time—
This man le lacking in power!
He works and he worries, be plans and
be hurtles,
Ile sighs through each passing hour,
To live for God and from God all the
time
This man is indeed most blest,
He is guided and guarded, urged on
and retarded,
He bas entered the life of rest!
What is a Baby?
Some definitions of a baby:.
"The bachelor's horror, the mother's
treasure, and the despotic tyrant of
the household."
"The morning caller, noonday crawl-
er, and midnight bawler."
"The only precious possession that
never excites envy."
"The 1attst edition of humanity, of
wheels every couple think they pos-
sess the finest copy."
A native of all countries, who speaks
the language of none"
"A Jew inches of coo and wiggle,
writhe and seream, fitted with suction
and testing apparatus for milk, and'.
automatic alarm to regulate supply."
"A thing we are expected to kiss
and look as if we enjoyed it"
"A little stranger with a free prise
to the heart's best affections."
is
Bachelors and spinsters make up
the larger part of those who in their
old age are obliged to depend on the
town or province fox support. Figures
show that of men who have a trade
only one in a hundred thousand has to
go to the poorhouse, and that of men
with a college education the proportion
is smaller still.

Describing a. man's conduct in buei

the man in questtou was fond of "sail-

SUMMER HEAT
HAD ON BABY
No season of the year is so danger-
ous to the life of little ones as is the
summer. The excessive heat throws
the little stomach out of order so
quickly that unless prompt aid is at
band the baby may be beyond all hie
man help before the Heather realizes
he is ill. Summer is the season when
diarrhoea, cholera infantum, dysentery
and colic are most prevalent. Any of
these troubles may prove deadly if not
promptly treated. During the summer
mother's best friend is Baby's Own
Tablets. They regulate the bowels,
sweeten tbe stomach and keep baby
healthy. The Tablets are sold by medi-
cine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a
box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine

Are You Poor?
Heaven help the poor!
1 do not mean the poor in money. I
mean those who are poor in resources.
For the only poverty that grinds,
deadens, and kills is poverty of re-
sources. .
When sorrow comes the poor in re-
sources have no wells of inner happi-
ness from which to draw.
When th,eir money is gone they have
no inner riches.
When they are bereaved they have
no tides of Faith to support them.
• • • •
They are poor in self-mastery, and
their environment overcomes them.
They are poor in discipline, and their
own selves fail upon them and devour
them.
They are poor in enthusiasms, and
when their one little interest is gone
they ,bayde no other. •
They are poor in friends, and to
their calamity is added loneliness.
They are poor in thoughts. As
Robert Louis Stevenson said, they do
not have so much as two ideas to rub
against each other while -waiting for a
train.
They are poor in work, having never
found their task, without which no
soul can be happy.
They are poor in beauty, having
never learned to see it, let alone feed
upon It.

They stand like ahivering•souls look-
