Thousands of mer and women are ailing to-day, not sick tn bed, but without ambition to do a full day's work, though they are forced to keep on. They are always tired or --hervots, do not sleep well, and awake in the morning unrefreshed. Many have headaches, backachee and stcm- ach trouble. Such people need the tonic help of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The beneficial effecta of this medicine reaches the whole system. Dr, Wil- liame' Pink Pills do more than relieve the symptoms--thoey remove the cause. Mrs, B.

Mowbray is a spelling which repre- sents, under the influence of the Rng- lish tongue, the "Mont Bret" or "Mont Brave" of the Normans. If you bear this family name it is a fair inference that the medieval an- cestor who gave it to you was one of the Normans who came over to Eng- land with WiNiath the Conqueror, and also that he probably did not bear that name prior to that time. Such names az these developed from the fact that the forces of the Con- queror, gathered from many parts of northern France, contained many men of the same given names, 60, it was the easiest method of differentiating them to refer to the place from which they had come, as this not only Menti- fled the individual, but identified the names which ere derived from thé| Varjations--McGann, MacCann. names of places in France, though | 52043) origin--ivish. ¥ngland | Source--A given name. hd names, coming criginally from French ! form of the designation af a very 0! r gources, but. apigtes recognizable as | Trish clan, which in jts turn rose to the | delight" in this day which 'fs so prone = firet, because dignity of x olan ace a branch or sept, to hold ail that ts decorous ¢o be near "MeCANN.

With certain indiyiduals the first question asked, when it is a matter of taking sides, is whether the indicated attitude is safe. They desire to have the honor and the fortune that await the brave, but the last thing they want is to incur the risk. You will not find them promptly volunteering at the out- set for an enterprise of hazard. They will wait and see what the outcome is likely to be ere they enroll as. parti- sans {in any conflict. It Js an understandable desire on the part of a man to want to be on the side that wins. The easier thing is always to cast in one's lot with the puissant majority, not to give all one has and is to a cause that looks forlorn from the inception and seems to have but @ rank outsider's chance of victory. Yet, happily, there are »those of the herofe mettle and the different mold who are attracted by the knowledge that success fs not a predetermined certainty and that conquest or failure depends largely on their own perform- ance. Some intrepid spirits have thrown themselves away on futile quests and vain objectives; they may have been 60 restless that they could not bide at home and must be "gentloman a™ venturers" in foreign legions, perhaps. taking part in Central American re- votutions, or it may be chartering ships and with kindred spirits engaged in @ search for buried treasure of Pirates in fronded isles of the West Inties . But Js there not adventure enough to be had in the champtonship of hopes, the furtherance of causes here at home that have nothing to do with the profession of the man-at-arms or the seamen? There is necessary war- fare in the name and under the flag of social, legal and medical reforme , which call for courage as well as the! battlefield, and whose pioneers must often inour loneliness and odium while the popular acclaim €0e8 to charlatang and demagogues "'Tis man's perdi- tion to be safe when for the truth he ought to die."

Living Green. I never knew how much green grags Could mean until ¥ had it not; Until I went to live where I Could see no tree or garden-plot. The joy of living green I loved, It was a part of dally being, As easily as much of life As thinking, moving, feeling, seeing. But hedged about with stone below And sky above, what it could be-- I came to know, to realize-- To miss the eight of shrub and tree, And when spring came my poor starved soul Cried out aloud; I could not stay-- I have come back to where I see ; Green hills and growing green each day. --George Elliston. ay AEs Family's Age Totals 465.

When the Dead Were Judged. | In ancient times the dead were taken before a jindge and jury and given a trial just ae though they were alive. In Deypt, the body was taken soon after death to an embalmer and kept by him for forty days. It wae then re- turned to its old home where the mourners wept over it for thirty-two days and nights, after which it was carted to the nearest sacred lake where witnesses were heard. In the case of a good man the body was allowed to be taken acrosr the lake in a boat and buried on the other side.
