But in the name ot MacQueen is tol be read the history of the days follow- ing the Irish invasion and settlement of the Highlands, when many of the!, Norse vikings, driven from home by? civil wars, swooped down on the' northern and western coasts ot Intl land and settled there.

Where we have a good light and want to plant for tiowers especially, the window box is ideal. It is seldom (that flowers will be as large and per- , feet in a pot as in a. window box, for ‘the soil is kept more moist and bet- ter aerated, so roots spread widely. "Suibhne" is simply the Gaelic form tor the very widespread Norse given name of 'Sweyn." Under the vary- ing inftuettees ot the Gaelic tongue it has assumed the variations mentioned in the heading ot this article, all of which are borne by one or other of the septa ot the Clan MacQueen. Jt'slb. tin Bi 'rr _,....!: _ - The box need not he more than six inches deep. The soil should be rich and mellow and not inclined to run together or get sour. it should con- tain a fair proportion of sand tor most plants. Window boxes are especially valu- ‘alple for the bulbs. Lilies can be i made to bloom freely in a cool window 3 it the box is fairly deep and the bulbs lset down pretty well. Violets bloom i all winter and furnish a lot of t1oqrttN Ho bunch and sell, as well as enjoy. 80t, it is not best to grow too many sorts' in one box, but a tall plant or two, in the middle and a row of lower, plants outside, with a border ot trall- ers, will make a pretty box. Your varieties should be such that blooms will be produced all winter. Snap. dragons of some pretty sell color tor, the middle, petunias next, with a? border of portulat'a or verbenas, make; a good box of annuals, while a Black Prince fuchsia in the middle, sur- rounded by eyelamen and bordered with Mad. Soleroi geraniums and Kenilworth ivy, would make a very' pretty box, and the contrasting colors' of the cyclamen and geranium foliage would be pretty when not in bloom. l The Potter Ear Phone convey: to your ear a clear, healthy and natural Bound.

', RACIAL omam--Engoh. g SOURCE-A locality, also an occu-l patio». l, The derivation of this group ot fam- ily names is almost the exact parallel of that ot the Hill group. It is more puzzling simply because it is the de- ‘rived meaning of the original word iwhich has survived in this case in- !stead of the primary meaning. The lword. in the only form in which we ihave it to-day, is "comb." It will be remembered that the original meaning ot the word "hill" was hill, and that there was a derived meaning, roof, which has disappeared. The original meaning ot the word "comb" was a series of ridges and hollows ot the upper hillsides. This meaning has disappeared and in our language to-day we have only the de- rived meaning which we apply to various articles of ridgy formation, as in "honeycomb," “cook's comb," or as iii, more" instinctively think ot it, the ordinary hair comb. - The names Coombe, Coombs and Combs were originally preceded by "de la" tot the) or "atte" (at the) to denote that the person to whom the surname was applied lived in such a place. It was spelled "cums," "eombe," "kembe" or "came," how. ever, "Combers" and "Coombers" were sometimes persons who dwelt in such sections. But more ottpn they were those who" followed the occupation of wool comb- ing, for even in the early middle ages, about the time family names began to form, the derived meaning of the word had already grown up and was in common use, particularly among the wool trades, and the surnames are often found in the form of "le Comber," "lo Kembester" and "le Camber." Nearly every little bum furnishes a market tor such a aupply of violets. Mrs. Alfred Tranehtmtttrttagms, Bt.'! Michel des Saints, Que.. writes:--; "Baby's Own Tablets are an excellent: medicine. They saved my baby’s lite and I can highly recommend them to all mothers." Mrs. Tranchemon- tagne's experience is that ot thou- sands ot other mothers who have teat. ed the worth ot Baby's Own Tablets. The Tablets are a sure and sale medi- cine for little ones and never fail to regulate the bowels and stomach, thus relieving all the minor ills from which children suffer.

Bending Coiper Tubing. _ When bending the small copper pipe or tubing leading from the tank to the carburetor of the ear by the usual methods, the pipe will kink, or sometimes even close up when abrupt turns are made. This can be avoided by inserting a piece of string solder Into the tubing, after which even com- plete circles can be made without the tubing closing up at all. The solder pulls out easily after the bend is made, especially it it has been well greased. If not, it can be easily melted out. Keep Minard'n Llnimont In the house. Screen Bed.

"If people would attend to their blood, instead of worrying themselves ill," said an eminent nerve specialist, "we doctors would not see our com sulting rooms crowded with nervous wrecks. More people suffer trom worry than anything else." The sort of thing the specialist spoke ot is the nervous, rundown TP"; ,ditlon caused by overwork and the imany anxieties of to-day. Suflerers (tind themselves tired, low-spirited and lunable to keep their minds on any- 3thing. Any sudden noise hurts them Hike a blow. They are full of ground- "ess fears, do not sleep well at night. 'Headaches and other nerve pains are part of the misery, and it all comes ‘from starved nerves. Doctoring the nerves with poisonous sedatives is a terrible mistake. The only real nerve tonic is a good supply ot rich red blood. Therefore to re- lieve nervousness and run-down health) Dr. Williams' Pink Pills should be taken. These pills enrich the blood, which tones the nerves, improves the appetite, gives new strength and spirits, and makes hitherto despondent people bright and cheerful. It you are at all "out ot sorts" you should begin taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. 1 You can get these pills through any ‘dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 ‘cents a box from The Dr. Williams lMedicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
