Williams' Pink Pills When the shadow of poor health falls upon you: w'heu hope fades and. life itself seems scarcely worth living, then is the time you should remember that thousands just as hopeless as you feel, have been restored to the sun- shine or health through the use of Dr. Williams' fink Pills. The rich red bleed which these Pills actually make, etrengthens the whole system. The nerves are strengthened, headaches vanish, the appetite improves, and: once again there is joy In lite. Among' the thousands benefited by the use of this. medicine is Mrs. Jos. Robinson, Oshawa. who says:—"Some time ago I was In an anaemia condition and so weak I would faint away at tines. I had no appetite. could not do my housework; in fact life seemed scarce- , le worth living. I was exceedingly pale and tried doctor's medicine with no good result.

Tortoises and turtles b Old Theories That Have Been Killed by. Modern Thought, Ignorance often develops into a be- lief, and belief ie. turn becomes a cus- tom. One of the best examples of this is the placing of the engagement -ring on the third finger. This is theresult of an old *belief, still widely taken for fact, that there is a nerve in the third finger in direct communication with the heart. Tihs gave rise to the idea of placing the ring on the third finger. Of course, there is not a shred of truth In this belief. The third finger is azo different from any of the others; but, all the same, it has developed in- to a custom. Another equally curious belief is that, stould a. person cut Himself in the space between the first finger and thumb, be Is more than likely to get ygek-jaw. It is a belief absolutely without foundation, except., perhaps, that a wound in that part of the band, owing to its free movement, takes a long time to heal. and Is therefore more likely to get dirt into It, which might cause locltjaw. A common belief exists that our belies undergo complete cbange-once in seven years. As to why seven years nobody know$, but many people Lave that Arno conviction.

"Yes, and who came to his assist- ance and helped him to win it?". "A. feler named Upgardson Atom." Surnames and Their Origin FOX Variations—Sinnock, Sinn Reynard, Reynardson. Racial Origin ---Irish. Source—A nickname. This is not the same fatuity name as the Fox which comes from the Anglo- Norman of i given name Atorrnalr 'source u the "Funke" or "Fulque.' Though they may not look it, Fox, Sinnoch, Seeny. Reynard anal Ray- nardson are all really variations 01 the same name, some of them being Anglicized variations of the Irish pro- nunetation of the name, and some of them being Angliclzed variations ot the meaning. It came about this way. There are two noteworthy figures in Irish his- tory wlro were founders of ohms or septs from which many bearing the foregoing names take their ancestry, One of these was "Flame" the 169th monarch of Ireland, 876 A.D., who was known as "the Fox." The other was a certain "Teige," wifo lived about 100 years later, also known as "the Fax" "Teige an Sionnaol:,." From these two surnames came the family or.elan names "MacSionnaighe." According to sound it has become Anglicized to the forms Sinnoch and. Sinnoek. Ac- , Sceny, cording to meaning it'hus become Fox, Reynard and. Reynardson. MAY Variations --aye, Melth, Racial Origin --Irish. Source—A sobriquet. If your name is May, and you are fat, it is quite appropriate in the his- torical sense, for if your name traces back to Ireland - it is likely that you inherit a tendency toward corpulency. The Gaelic form of this family name, which is quite old, Is "O .Mbeith, " It hod, of course, gradually become a family name in our modern sense, through many .centuries of use as a clan naive. It Is a name which dates back Considerably farther than the eldest 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'Mheith cane into being about 350 A. D., in the days when. the Irish were still pagan, and tee power of their em- pire was felt in raids and invasions clear down into Italy. The elan was founded by a chieftain named "Muireadach," known as "Mulr- eadach aleith" ("the Fat"). Life Partners THE union of Nature, the Farmer and Science is a partnership for life.

The Place of Music in Our Civilization, It has been said by a great musician,] Mat the mune of the brass band is the ;1 meet perfect expre slon of a nation's feelings. of its joys and sorrows, its hope: and aspirations. To no other, appeal will the masses of people, men, women and children, rise So quickly.' The nausle of the brass band fires am-' bitian in the laggard. Many a soldier was inspired to bravery In battle by Its mus. i is It gives them an indriAz te sense of ere ilaration, it makes their. hearts 'beat faster, it smoothes the die• . cords of nature into barnlony. it arouses the finest enthusiasm and it puts bravery in the heart that is timid. Music Is a great force in civlllzation. Every period of intellectual activity, a e social or political. reacted upon music. I To illustrate, we need but refer to the 'formal character of the music of the 1 period preceding the French revolu• tion anti the freedom and vigor im- parted by the spirit of Romanticism which followed in the wake of that ; great political movement, a difference strikingly illustrated In the music of i Haydn and Beethoven, Clement' and s SoLumann. The science of music had ;a high place in t'hinese philosophy..' ;the sages alone comprehended the canons. and the mandarins were con- sidered superior in point of musical knowledge. Interesting dates are given showing how early the Chinese had developed a science of music. In 2277 B.C., for example, there were 22 writers on the dance and music, 23 on ancient music, and 25 on the construe- { 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.
