The man, who is the proprietor of a fashionable restaurant, and his wife, are both seventy, and it was their deâ€" sire that their funeral should take place before their death.

The Canadian Government steamâ€" ship Arctic sailed from Quebec on July ! 9th for points in the Canadian Arctic archipelago in the provisional district | of Franglin, Northwest Territories. It | had been intended that the ship reâ€" | cently purchased in England for this |service, and renamed the Franklin, | would be used this year, but owing to unforeseen delays in having her hull strengthened to meet ice conditions this was impossible and it was necesâ€" [sary to recommission the famous old {Arctic for one more northern voyage. As last year the expedition, which is in charge of the North West Terriâ€" tories Branch of the Departm<nt of ‘the Interior, is commanded by Mr. J. , D. Craig, and Captain J. E. Bernier is in charge of the Arctic. Those on board include a number of surveyors, luuturalists‘, and engineers to investiâ€" | gate the natural resources of the reâ€" gion; the members of the special court which is to conduct the trial of three Eskimos charged with murder; and a , number of members of the Royal Canaâ€" ! dian Mounted Police to relieve men ; stationed in the north.

It is expected the Arctic will 'return in October. In its original form the penny was not a coin, but a token or pledge. Its derivation comes from the same source as that from which we get the word "pawn," and also such words as "panel,‘‘ "pane," counterpane," and "panicle." comer, Newcum, Newcomb. Racial Originâ€"English and German. Sourceâ€"Descriptive. It was not until after the Norman conquest, and the two races, Norman and Angloâ€"Saxon, had begun to interâ€" mingle thoroughly, that the period of industrial growth began. This period, one of increasing prosâ€" perity for the medieval English, was also the period in which the real growth of family names began in that eountry. It was a period in which, as a result of the new social and econoâ€" mic order,. there was a considerable shifting about of population occurring. Men moved about from place to place, in the s‘ackening bonds of feudalism, searching for new opportunities. There was not a community that did not have its quota of new settlers. When ycu search for another word than "n=wcomers" by which to desigâ€" nate them, you realize how naturally they came to be called "newcomers" by the communities in which they setâ€" tled. Such names as "Peter le Newe," "Geoffrey le Newcomer‘" and "Roger Newcommen" ("newly come") are quite frequent in the medieval records of about this period. The readiest pledge to leave in pawn was cloth, hence the Latin "panâ€" na," a piece of cloth. The original panel was a piece of cloth, or patch, and from this we get the word "pane" as applied to a pane of glass, and also territories, they, of course, taking the name from the chief of the clan.

Thus, in it was not a coin, but money baving been n it was money form. mnve{ whic land of E Neuman and Neumann are for the most part German equivalents of the English name. The latter is in virâ€" tually all cases, as is indicated by the final "mp." Sterling, as applied to money, is deâ€" rived from the Hanseatic League, which had an important house in Engâ€" land. As their land lay "to the east of England," Englishmen called them "Easterlings," and the gold they paid in the course of trade became known as "Easterling money." Subsequently the expression became sterling. Mothers who keep a box of Baby‘s Own Tablets in the house may feel that the lives of their little ones are reasonably safe during the hot weathâ€" er. Stomach troubles, cholera infanâ€" tum and diarrhoea carry off thousands of little ones every summer, in most cases because the mother does not have a safe medicine at hand to give promptly. Baby‘s Own Tablets relieveo these troubles, or if given occasionalâ€" ly to the well child will prevent their coming on. The Tablets are guaranâ€" teed by government analyst to be abâ€" solutely harmless even to the newâ€" born babe. They are especially good in summer because they regulate the bowels and keep the stomach sweet and pure. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25¢ a box from The Dr Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. The name of Newcomb properly should not have that final "b," for it does not come from the word "comb," descriptive of the character of the land, like the names Combs, Coombe and Coombes.

Some people have a tendency to beâ€" come thinâ€"blooded just as others have an inherited tendency to rheumatism, or to nervous disorders. The condiâ€" tion in which the blood becomes so thin that the whole body suffers comes on so gradually and stealthily that anyone with a natural disposition in that direction should watch the sympâ€" toms carefully. _ Bloodlessness, or anaemia, as the medical term is, can be corrected much more easily in the earlier stages than later. It begins with a tired feeling that rest does not overcome, the complexion becomes pale, and breathlessness on slight exâ€" ertion, such as going up stairs, is noâ€" ticed. Dr. Willlams‘ Pink Pills are a home remedy that has been most successful in the treatment of diseases caused by thin blood. With pure air and wholesome food these bloodâ€"making pills afford the correct treatment when the symptoms described are noticed. You can get these pills through any dealer in medicine or by mail, postâ€" paid, at 50c a box from The Dr. Wil liams‘ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. w G on P e ies _ e Jz e t is IBr C ce Pak i C A en\¢o, * i \ x r= saghe oC ~ 4 :’ a zc s 4 /,'4{ ‘€ & \ h f’fâ€"-â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"._:.-g \ I, SYVHPTOMS OF AVAEMIHA UNLESS you see the name "Bayer" on tablets, you are not getting Aspirin at all FALSE, ON THE FACE OF IT. Fritz‘s make up.â€"From the Sunday Chronicle. What Stopped Them? ‘F. Aspirin With regard to performing and hearâ€" ing music, the multiplication of inâ€" struments like the player‘ plano and the talking machine added to the large number of persons who are able to play the piano, the organ, the violin and other stringed instrumentsâ€"these all have smoothed the way to the unâ€" derstanding and appreciation of music. It is by no means true that music is appreciated when it is understood, nor is it necessarily understood when it is appreciated. A lorg expérience in teaching musical appreciation to colâ€" lege students has convinced one wellâ€" known authority of the truth of these statements, (1) An understanding of music without any real love for it, without feeling its worth, will result in mere snobbery, (2) A love of music, a belief in its great value without knowledge of its structure, without any exact knowledge how it grew or of what it is composed, will leave its possessor critically helpless, unable to distinguish between the false and the true, able to say only this, "I know what I like." All its wealth is living grain, Seeds that mildew in the garnerâ€" Scattered, fills with gold the plain." If a farmer desires a bountiful harâ€" vest he will not be stingy with his seed planting, and it is equally true that he who would have friends must give generously of himself. In the moral world if we desire happiness we must "scatter seeds of kindness for the reaping by and bye." "For the heart grows rich in giving Ask for Minard‘s and take no other. To know what music is made of, to approach it as organized sound, to realize that it has structure, to know that it is subject to the same great laws of growth as the other arts, to esâ€" teem it not because it helps one to make pictures, or for any other reaâ€" son, but because it has value in and of itself, this is to understand music. Quite apart from what many people are pleased to term its message, beâ€" yond any emotional enjoyment exâ€" perienced in hearing it, music exists as organized sound, and lasting and profound appreciation of music come to one the more profoundly that truth is apprehended.

Everyone knows how exorbitant the prices of genuine antique furniture frequently are. The purchasers are generally rich and don‘t often dispute the price, and the supply is rarely equal to the demand. In a recent court case, says London Opinion, a witness who was a furniture dealer testified as follows: "What did you pay for them?" asked the examining lawyer. "About six hundred pounds." "How long was it before you sold them to Messrs. Dighton?" "About six weeks." "For how much?" "One thousand four hundred pounds." "And then they were sold to Mr. Shrager for three thousand pounds! What do you suppose Lord Vernon would think of thatâ€"a profit of two thousand four hundred pounds the dealers made out of hbis chairs in a few weeks?"
