Surnames and Their Origin
COSGRAVE
Variations — O'Cosgrave, Cosgreve,
Cosgreave.
Racial Origin—Irish.
Source—Given Names.
If your name is Cosgrave, and the
namecameo down to you from "the
old sod," you may be a scion of either
'one ortwo of the Irish clans,, for two
entirely different Irish clan names
have been Anglicized into the form
Cosgrave.. �.
One of these, like the Hogan clan,
was a branch of the more ancient
O'Briens, being founded, in fact, by
the graudfatber of the chieftain from
whom the Hogans took their sept or
clan name.,, This chieftain, the grand
sire of "Ogee," was . called "Cosgrach.
e°.
Th other ciao which bore the
name.
of "O'Cosgrig o ,, ,thad::no connection
at all with th -, 'W : riens and the He -
gens; but derived its name from its
founder, a chieftain named "Cosgar."
DURKIN
Racial Origin—Irish.
Source—A given name.
Here is a family name which you
might be pardoned for taking as Eng-
lish, for it has a truly English sound to
it. Possibly it would not look so Eng-
lish to you, however, if you saw it
spelled "O'h-Dobharcon."
But you won't find the sounds' so dif-
ferent if you pronounce the Gaelic
form of the name as it should be pro-
nounced, with a silent "bh."
This clan name, derived at some
period in the VIidd1e Ages from the
name of the chieftain under whose.
leadership the clan formed, is but' the
regular development from the given
name of ` Aubharch?"
The Durku s -were a branch of the
more ancient Macnamara clan.
IS THERE A BABY
IN YOUR HOME?
Is there a baby or young children in
your home? If there is you should not
be without a box of Baby's Own Tab-
Iets. Childhood ailments come quickly
and means should always be at Hand
to promptly fight them. Baby's Own
Tablet's are the ideal home remedy.
,They regulate the bowels; sweeten the
stomach; banish constipation and indi-
gestion; break up colds and simple
,ferrets—in fact they relieve all the
minor ills,of little ones. Concerning
them MrsMolle Cadotte, Makamik,
Que., writes: "Baby's Own Tablets
are the best remedy in the world for
little ones. My baby suffered terribly
from indigestion and vomiting, but the
Tablets .soon set her right and now.
she is in perfect .health." The Tab-
lets are sold by medicine dealers or by.
mail at 25c a box from The Dr. Wil-
liams,' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

The Eyes of the Blind.
I
have a friend, the sweetest friend
That ever you could find,
And, though he lights the way fot me,
They tell me he is blind,
But, ohs! I know my friend can see
Much more than I or you;
,We are the sightless; he is blessed
With visions ever new,
00 quiet, ,go serene his face,
His smile so quick, so bright—
He sees beyond the things we touch
And needs no earthly light.
Ilia• spirit bears him on, although
He knows not night form day;
The shining beauty of his soul
Lights, all the darkened way.
Our%teshly eyes that have not seen
The .glory yet to come,
:Can never follow' such as, he
When he shall reach his home.
The joys" to us so new and strange,
The radiance and the song,
To hint will be but old -tinge tiring.
That he has loved so long.
Soul blind and gtroping for the peace
That he -who sees—has even,
Wo know when we would Vide his
steps
'Tis he who leads, us on.

The lanesof Glostershire are sweet
With hawthorn bloom to -day;
The larks are nesting in the wheat
Where Severn winds her way,
And ancient men are whetting scythes
Ere comes the timte of hay.
Oh, Giostersthire and Canada, are many
miles apart,
But the old songs of Glostershire are
singing in my heart.
•
The hills ,of Glostershire are white
With sheep now it is May;
Where gleamed the Legion's armour
bright
The Cotswold yearlings ,play,
And daisy -spangled le the sward
Above the Roman way.
'Tween Glostershire and Canada vast
waters rise and fall,
But a -cuckoo calls, at sundown itsold
familiar coli,
Great ships come into Gloster town
And safe at anchor lie,
And little boats with sailer of brown;
And seagulls wheel and cry
Around the spires of Glostersliire
When wind and wave are high.

And heart to heart is carding across

Britain's Strangest Colony. �,
Qne of the strangest colonies in Eng- `.
land is that of .South Shields, where, in
a part of the;town near the river, a,
large number .0 Arabs have found a
permap eut home. ,
The colony stretches for a consider -
•able distance along the dockside, and
there are several hundred alien in-
habitants, To walk through the prin-
cipal street 'is like 'visiting an Eastern '
city. There' are Arabian butcher sl-�ps,
lodging;hou,�es,• anti eating.liouses,
while most of the pedestrians are
Arabs,
Arabic signs adorn many of the
shops and houses, while here` and,tlrer.e
a sign has been a"done into English''
with earalcal resu�:its. Then _there is
one notice to the effect bhiat Mr. Said
Hassan/a, premises are a "incensed sea-
mten's Arab lodginghouse."
Most of the Arabs Carne to tins coun-
try as, seamen during the war and
educe then many of them; unable to
find ,berths, have found themselves
stranded'in various ports: There are
large numbers of them in, Glasgow,
Liverpool; and:Cardiff.
At South Shields the colony has its
own ministers, and at marriages or
funerals the strange ceremonials of
the East are observed. In the case of
funerals, the mourners execute a sole
emn "death dance" in memory of the
departed.
Betrothals and births are signalized
by rejoicings; which in some eases ex-
tend over several days,
Thee colony bas been considerably
depleted recently, as, many of the men
have succeeded in getting. ships. and
returning home. In some cases, how-
ever, the Arabs have settled down with
their wives and• families, and have
found various, ways a earning a liveli-
hood.
TO AVOID PAINS
OF RHEUMATISM
This Trouble is Located in: the
Blood, and Relief Comes
Through Better Blood.
Rheumatism •comes with thin, im-
pure blood, and can only be driven out
of the system by enriching and` puri-
fying the blood.
The chief symptom of rheumatism is
pain. The most successful treatment
is the one that quickly banishes this
disagreeable symptom. Many rheu-
matic people suffer pains that could.
be avoided by building up the blood.
The value of:Dr. Williams'' Pink Pills
in rheumatic troubles is proven by the
testimony of Mrs. A. Bryson, Arthur
,emit.. -out., —' I. was so -uslja uta
with rheumatism in my shoulders and
neckthat t I could not turn In bed with-
out the help of my husband, and the
pain at times was almost unbearable.
I took doctors' medicine which did 'me
little or no good. Then I began taking
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and have
since been free from rheumatism.. I
can also recommend the pills to young
mothers, as in my own case I found
they are unexcelled.. I may also add
that I recommended Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills to a neighbor who took fainting
spells at the change of life, and who.
could not walk any distance. She took
the pills for nearly three months and
they made her a strong well woman"
You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
from any dealer in medicine or by
mail at 50c a box from The Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
Flames Can't Destroy
Writing.
Even the careful criminal, who des-
troys, as he thinks, all traces of evi-
denoe against him by burning docu-
ments that prove his guilt, is not safe
from the long arxu of the modern
ecientiflc detective; for documents
charred in the fiercest fire can now be
made to give up their secrets.
A short time ago a document of
vital importance was thrown by mis-
take into the fire. Wbien its, loss was
discovered it was nothing more than
a blackened, fragile thing containing
not a single word that. was decipher-
able.
An expert was called in, though the:
owner of the burnt paper had little
hope that he could be of any use. Four
weeks later the expert returned and
handed the owner.a clear photograph
of the document, with every word as
easy to read is onathe day it had been
written.
The expert knew that photographic
plates' are acted upon by other things
besides light. T.hte ink: of the, original' 1
writing contained chemicals, and even
hough they had been in the heart of
the fire he felt tbat some of • their pot-
envy must remain: '
He placed the paper. between two
ultra-zensdtive plates and left it for a
week. Then he looked to see if there
was any result: a few faint marks ap-
peared on the plates, but that was all.
Undeterred, he next ' gave a three
weeks' exposure, at the end of which
period he was able to deliver the per-
fect photograph.

Our Longer Life.
Some little creatures have so short a
life
That' they *e orphans born—but
why should we
Be prouder of a life that gives more
'time -
To think of death through all eter-
nity?
Time 'bears us off, as lightly as the
wind
Lifts up the smoke and carries it
away;
And ail we know is that a. longer life
Gives but more time to think of our
decay,
We live till Beauty fails, and Passion.

And sleep's our one desire in every
breath;
And in that strong desire our old love,
Life,
Gives place to that new' love whose
name is Death,

Fish That Sit Down.
Nature never produced a more re-
markable creature than the Japanese
goldfish.
Though they are called goldfish,
their `scales range in color from pink
to bronze, blue, black, and orange, in
shades such as human craftsmen have.,
never succeeded in copying. They have'
wonderful: tails that remind one of
bridal veils or fans, and they sit•down

are telescopic. That is to say, the fish'
can manipulate them in such a way
;that they can see What enemy is chas-
ing them,rear or flank, ga k, No other cess-
ture has such a wide range of vision,
The Japanese goldfish is of consider-
able value, some of them selling for
four or five pounds, and quite a large
trade is done. They are imported in
.specially -built aquariums, heated and
ventilated in such a way that the oc-
cupants are not affected by changes of.
climate.
The Source of Thorinaite.
It is said •that the mineral thorinaite,
now largely used in the manufacture
of the: mantles for, incandescent gas
lamps, is at present not known to oc-
cur elsewhere than in the island of
Ceylon. Its discovery was due to the
operations of the Ceylon Mineral Sur-
vey. -It is, exported to Europe and

"None of us, my dear," came the

anger, "ie perfect"
