People think of neuralgia as a pain in the herd or face, but 'neuralgia may affect any nerve of the body. Differ- ent names are given to it when it af- fects certain nerves. Thus neuralgia of the sciatica nerve is called sciatica., but the character of the pain and the ure of the disease is the same, and remedy to be effective, must same. The pain, whether it to forni of sciatica or whether it is the face and head, is caused ry ed nerves. The blood, whi mally carries nourishment ,to ves, for some reason no longer do nd the excruciating pain you fe he cry of the: starved nerves f The reason why the blood fa properly nourish the nerves is u y because the blood itself is we thin. .

As pro e value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pil ses of this kind we:give the stat of Mrs, Marion Bell, Port Elgin who says:—"Some years ago attacked with sciatica in my le hip.

Livingstone, has been discovered in the little village of Chislehurst, in Kent. He is known as Arab Makep- po, and he is not certain of his age. il;Ie only knows that it was very many .years ago and that he was a very small Week boy when the party which had raided his native village, and to which he was sold by an older brother, was attacked by red -coated British soldiers ;attached to the Livingstone party and he and his fellow slaves, both men and women, were rescued. -i The captured blacks were brought before Livingstone and the great ex- plorer tools a fancy to the small Arab. Malceppo and kept him for his "boy." The English party kept most of the. men of the party with them, sending the women back to ,their native vi1 ages and then after Learning the na- tive language sent them throughout the country to announce•to the native tribes that - the .Englishmen were' friends of the Africans and were bring- ing good -will with them. Thus was the way prepared for unmolested explora- tion in the farthest depths of the then little known continent. Worships Memory of Explorer. Makeppo remained in the Living- stone party as the body -servant to its leader until the great adventurer died, and was then sent to England to school.Shortly after his arrival here he was christened George Watto by the English family which engaged him as a cook. He is a devout Christian and looks forward to again joining his famous "Governor" when he dies. lie remembers well the grim proces- sion of himself and his native rely- , tions and friends as oaptives of the Portuguese.

Fences and walls were little, used in those days to mark the divisi`grts of land.• For this purpose hedges, either the real thing or mere indications of them, were used. Naturally, : cattle had a tendency to stray morn one man's land . to another. It. was the "hayward's" duty to prevent` this. - Or- iginally his duties were limited. to this. He was a servitor of the entire' coin munity rather than the employee of a single person. But in the course of time his authority and his duties were extended until he became a, Sort of general trespass officer, and an. official of considerable importance in each vil- lage or community. "Hayward" is not the regular source of the family name of Howard, though sometimes the latter is simply a Cor - ringed spelling of the former, DANIELS. Variations ---Daniel, Dann, Tancock, Racial Origin—Anglo-Saxon, Source --A Biblical given name. Daniels is another of those festal names which comes down to us fr the days of the old Anglo-Saxon though, like other family names, it d not become such until a period aft the Anglo-Saxons and Norman-Fren had become fused into the Englis race of medieval and ,modern times. The finals on Daniels indicates th it' has been shortened ,from Danleiso The variation Tancock is the resit of a misspelling that crept into th name at some period, either before o after it became a family name, an the habit o the Anglo-Saxons''of shor ening names to one syllable and the adding .a diminutive •ending. One o these endings was "cock" or "cock,' meaning "little." Tanoock, then, trans lated literally into modern speech means "little Dan," or, if we should us the Modern diminutive, "Danny." It is impossible to state at just what period "Daniel's son" . ceased to be merely descriptive of an individual and was adopted through. several gen- erations, thus becoming a family name. A general development of custom took place along this line throughout north- ern Europe from the twelfth to the fourteenth centuries. The frequency With which Daniel appears as a given. name 'n the old days indicates many unrelated families adopted it simul- taneously. ly on s, id er eft h at n, it e 1' d t- f e • Former Playmate of Czar' Children Now Saleswoman.

She is -;the. Baroness Luibich de Lozina Lozinoly. The .baroness ;was a •'daugbtre Baron Ivan Tehteglovitova;e who was minister of justice in Russia from 19.05' to 1915. To him fell the task of pro- secuting and punishing offenders in the revolution of 1905. No doubt he at- tracted his share of fear and hate. Immediately on the outbreak' of the revolution in Russia in 1917 the baron was thrown into prison, where' he re- mained during the regime of Kerensky. Then, in 1918, when some one shot .at Levine, in retaliation the baron and other prisoners were taken from a dun- geon below the Kremlin and put to death. gI SAVED BABY'S LIFE g Mrs. Alfred Tranchemontagne, St. , Michel des Saints, Rue., writes:— ,mBaby's Own. Tablets are an excellent edicine. They saved my baby's life and I can highly recommend them to . all mothers." Mrs. Tranchemontagne's experience is that of thousands of - other mothers who have tested th e worth of Baby's Own Tablets. The Tablets are a sure and safe medicine for little ones and never fail to regu- late the bowels and stomach, thus re- lieving all- the minor ills from which children suffer. They are sold by medicine dealers or by nail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brookville, Ont. How the English Make Toffee. Mix four cups of brown sugar and half a cup of corn syrup with half a cup of water, and put on the fire, stir- ring carefully until all the sugar is dissolved. Let this 'come to a boil and then take off the Are and add four tablespoons of butter. Put the mix- ture back on the stove once more and boil until the butter has penetrated. throughout the candy. Pour onto a greased enameled ware tray of any kind and, as the candy cools, mark it into squares. When it has hardened break these apart and wrap each piece separately in wax paper. Incidentally, you will find that the labor of "clean- ing up" is a great deal less if you have used an enameled ware saucepan for the cooking; since even the stickiest mixtures do not adhere long to its por- claiu-like surface. Tip from the Chaplain. The rector of a fashionable London church was induced to preach at a. well-known prison. When in the ves- try 110 said to the prison chaplain: "Now I have come, I don't know, what to say to your convicts." The chap lain replied, "Preach to them exactly as you do to your own congregation; and remember only one thing: my people have been found out and yours have not ---yet." At the Crossroads. A recruit wearing fourteens in boots was enl',sted in the Irish Free State army.

There is a met however., by which labels can be p pared at home so that they will main legible for ten years or more. is only necessary to buy a sheet zinc and to cut it into labels of wh ever size you may desire. A hole, or better still two holes, can be punched in one end for the wires, which should be of copper. Stripe adready cut and punched can be bought for a few cents if the gardener desires to avoid the Iabor of preparing them. Zinc labels. have been marked with a prepared inky but that is not neces- sary. If the labels are exposed to the elements for a few weeks until they become axydized the writing can be done • with an ordinary lead pencil. Oxydization can also. be produced by immersing the labels in a bath of salt water for a few days. Also the results by. this method are generally satisfactory, still better ones can be obtained by painting the zinc with a good gray paint after they have been oxydized. The paint should be thick and can' be put on tui acloth and the writing should be done•when the•paint Is only partly dry. Chiropracticaliy Speaking.
