Zurich Herald, 1926-12-09, Page 3SCIATIC SUFFERING Onnes Because the Nerves Are Starved for Better Blood. There are excellent reasons w11y Dr. WIfliales' Fink Pills have proved etei,]c!al. iu the 1noet severe cases of sciatica, ,ieuraagiu and other cam_ pietas in that group known as disor- ders of tine, nerves, Each of these com- plaints exist beceuse the blood is thin and watery, and the nerves are taus literally starving for that nourish- ment' rich red blood supplies them.. A.ny increase, tlreteforre, in the, allele pees of the blood speedily and bene- ficial/1Y acts upon the nerves and the torturing pains of sciatica and newal- gia disappear. It is because of their slieciflc action on the blood, thus feed- ing the starved nerves that Dr. Wile Hams' Pink Pills hove b•aeu so success- ful $n the treatment of these troubles. As proof off this we give the "case of Mrs. P. N. Rezanlson, South Alton, N.S., who says "Two years ago I was at- tlaoked with sciatica and neuralgia hi nay back and leg. The pain was so severe that I could not walk. Even to move caused me agony, and I had to go to heed. Tho doctor cadle,d in was not able to do more than deaden the pain, and I bad been in bed for six weeks when my grandmother came to see nee and strongly urged me to give Dr. Wi;t:liam,s'' Pink Pills a trial. She said she had had a similar attack and it was these pins that had restored her to health. I at once got a supply and had only used four boxes when I Lound great relief. Gledly I kept on taking the pills; and soon after found niystedf as well as ever 1 had been. Gratitude for what Dr. Williams?

A Scotsman took his girl for a day's outing, consia'ting entirely of walking and other inexpensive pleasures. On arriving back at her home the girl com- plained of bungee, thus raising her mother's ire. "And didn't that mean man buy you anything to eat?" "No," answered the girl. "DM he pay your rail fare?" "Yee," replied. Mary. "Then take it back to him now." On arriving at Sandy's house, Mary gave him tho money, saying, "There's the rail fare; Sandy."

A maieha1 of Prance, at the time of the France -Prussian War bore this name. Bet he was of Irish ancestry, and the genealogists trace kis line back through a comparatively few generations to the Irish clan, "Mac- .Mathgbesnbna," From this same clan name have de- veloped the Anglicized form Mahony and Mahan. Of ad•1 the modernforms that of Mahony probably strikes olos- est to the pronunciation of the Gaelic •ftent of the name, if you just prefix the "Mac" which has been dropped in the translation into English. The seat of this clan was in Corea Baisgin, now known as Moyarta, and sat one time, before the sway of the English wall finally established throughout Ireland, it Flayed a promin- ent history part in the istory of that land.

The origin of this name as a family name is easily understood when a glance through the gazette shows a place of this name on the River Tweed, in Scotland. But how did the place get its name? There is an explanation advanced that the family name • is of Gaelic origin, and that the place took its name from the personal name. In this explanation the source is given as the Gaelic "mac- suaT' or "little son." But logical thought does not incline to belief in this source. Actual historical record, in fact, flatly eentradiets it. The .place got Its name in .the reign of King David of Scotland in the eleventh century, i when a chieftain named Maochus-ob- him would think of turning the hasty words into bloody deeds.

Tolstoi once told a parable of two farmer neighbors who were very good friends, ever reedy to help one an- other. If one's cart was broken, his neighbor would offer the use of his own, If one was short of sacks, he had only to make known his need and his neighbor would lend. One day Gabriel's wife ail Ivan's daughter-in- law had words over an egg, and: pre- sently all the members of the • family Were engaged in the quarrel. They abused, one another and as the feud developed, went to court and threw away mere money than they could af- ford in legel expcneee. Then one set fire to the house of the other, his own house also caught fire in the •confiagt'a- tion and half the village was burnt down. . Something of what that grim story illustrates is constantly going on in human communities. Some disagree- ment over a paltry matter sets a whole neighborhood ablaze, burning up good feeling and kiedeiness and forbear- ance. There is hardily a home or a school or a college, hardily a playing field or a. business house or even a church, where tongues do not in this evil sense prove to be fires. Many hundreds of years ago, in the Cathedral city of Canterbury, a great crowd watched a strange sight. Along the narrow streets .of the town came a man, barefoot and clad in a rough woollen shirt, slowly making his way to the Cathedral. His head was bowed and his feet were bloodstained, for the stones were 'sheep and cut the flesh. That man, so humbly attired, was no other than the King of Eng- land. There in a • tiny church outside the town he had stripped off his ordinary dress and in penitent garb approached the Cathedral, where years before the Archbishop a Becket had been murder- ed, stabbed as he was 'coming from prayers. The sting made his way to where Becket fell, and kissed the stone. Then he went to the tomb and, with groans and tears, knelt and confeseed. He promised great efts to the church, then he removed his cloak and, kneel- ing at the tomb, he was beaten, re- ceiving five strokes from each bishop and three strokes from each of eighty nils That was a king's penance for a few hasty words. He and the Archbishop had not been good friends. Becket had stood in the way of bis deeeres. 'Who will rid me of this man?" he had mnati'entP.y exclaimed, not expecting that any of the retainers who heard ':Litsralle the name meant "calf of the The name given to the place natural- ly was Maec ins'.vIllle, and this In the 1 course of time under the Iniduenee of the Scottish speech has been shorten- ed and euiphonized into Maxwell. plains" which, however, was but the Ipoetic name of the ancient Irish for ;the bear.

Pra,ctioa.l musicians who, on account of their paofc:rsional interest, ought to be the while movers in any movement that gives promise of furthering the causeof music in their community are, or should be, the natural leaders in arousing this sentiment. The lead- ership is usually found to be due to the enthusiasm of some amateutr— male or feme:1c. If this individual is a publle-spirited citizen, he may, on account .of his or her s.oclal influence, he better fitted for the position of leader in a new movement. But in musical movements the pr ectical musician of any local• standing should give a helping hand in promotig the cause. And this is rarely the case, especially in smaller cities. The general type of practical musi- cian has the self-przeerving instinct and conviction of the laborer, not the artist. His bread and butter seeine en- dangered if he should connect himself with somet'hing'of a publie nature out- side hie immediate bread -earning occu- pation. The leadership in any mo've- m.ent demands strong couvietions, courage, initiative, policy and, above all, a judicious temperament.
