But there is another derivation ot the family name, from the old Norman. French word "hutaln," meaning "proud." The mention of such char. acteristics as this in connection with a man's name with the same given name. was quite common in the middle ages. At that period, just prior to the development of family names and co- incident with it. populations were in- creasing so rapidly, and shifting as well, and the same given names were applied to so many persons, that some further method of tutterentiation, such as mention ot the place whence a man had come, or of some personal char- acteristic of his, was the rule rather than the exception. Those who can trace their ancestry back to a form of the name prefixed either by "de" or "le" will have no dit. fieulty In determining whether their family names developed from the place name or the nickname. The "de" indicates the former and the "le" the latter. Harris prided himself on a thorough knowledge of horses and their habits, and so he was interested when, on a visit to the country, he saw a farmer having some trouble with his mount. It would tstart,'tunNe along slowly tor a abort distance and then stop. Then the farmer would have great dif- tictsltr in getting it started again. Finally Harris approached the farmer and asked kindly: “In your horse sick?" "Not u I know of," was the short reply. 13 he balky?” "No. But he‘s so afraid I'll say 'Whoa'.' and he won't hear me that he nope every once in a while to listen."

The scarcity of liquid capital is quite as acute in the shoe industry as it is in any branch of German trade. A novel way was sought out of the dilemma. Instead of paying the men oft In marks. they gave them each a pair of shoes as part payment of their wages. - An hour later virtually the whole shoe working population had been transformed Into a mics aggregation. From store to store wandered heads of families. trying to dispose of their pair ot shoes in return tor things to eat. Why Many Men and Women Are Badly Handicapped. When you ore so run down in health that it impairs the eft1ciency of your work as well as your power to enjoy your leisure hours. or obtain rest. it is time you looked to the cause. If you do not, a serious breakdown is almost sure to result sooner or later. In near- ly all cases this condition, which doc- tors usually describe as general debility, is due to poor blood-blood that is detieient in red corpuscles. When the blood is thin and weak your whole system suffers. You lose ap- petite, have no energy. your nerves trouble you and you feel restless. What you need is help to build up your blood and you should begin at once to make your blood rich and red by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. You will soon notice the difference in your health by a. better appetite and in- creased vigor. The reason is that the new blood created by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills stimulates all the organs ot the body to healthy activity, and so the system gains nourishment and strength. It you are weak or out ot sorts begin gaining new strength to- day by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. You can get these pills from your druggist or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. A Boy With a. Big Conscience. A curious thing happened to me when I was a 1nd!" remarked old Mnl Markham. “When I was ten years old i my father died, leaving my mother in) straitened circumstances with a large) family to support. My older sisters at once began to teach, and as soon as t was old enough I found a job in a clothing More. The work was not hard, but one thing troubled me. My father was a teetotaler and had taught me to think it wrong to drink. Well, there was an old gentleman who stopped daily at the store on his way home and took a drink of whiskey. We did not sell whiskey, but he kept his bottle and glass there because it was convenient. As I was the F01mtr- est clerk. it was my duty to bring the bottle and glass whnn he came in. German Factories Workers Paid in Shoes. "Well, I worried about it a good deal and finally went to the head of the firm and told him my conscience would not allow me to encourage any man to drink. He looked at me in amazement; then his face turned red, and he cried, See here, boy, aretyou trying to be impudentt' tF 'No, sir,’ I replied, 'but I just don't think it's right.' " 'Well,' he said, 'no one stays in my store who can’t take orders from mel You may get your pay and leave at the end of the week.' "That was a. blow! When I went home I told my mother the news. She sighed and said: 'You were quite right, my son. I would not have you disobey your conscience for all the money in the world!’ "When the week ended and I was paid in full I was told to my great as- tonishment that the firm would pre- sent me with any suit of clothes in the store that I wished to have. I was much pleased and walked out with my new suit under my arm, feeling almost cheerful. "I had not gone two atepe before one ot the owners of the drug store next door accosted me. 'Want a iob?' he asked. wen "I hear you're leaving Brown's on account of an abnormally developed conscience!' he went on. 'Well, that's the kind of a young fellow we are needing in our business. Can't have too much conscience in a drug store. Somebody's lite might depend on it.' "I had recovered my wits by that time. 'rll be glad to get the work, Mr, and I'll do my best,' I said. "When I went home and told my mother and showed her my suit she exclaimed: ‘I knew you were right. but we no not always have such quick returns tor a. little investment in do ing right." " .

In California, it you grow 1 mari- huana bush you risk imprisonment for three months. Marihuana is the Span- ish-American name tor hasheesh, or Indian hemp. It grows freely, and its smaller leaves and seeds are dried, crushed, and made up into cigarettes.

The drug tirgt exhilarates the smoker, and then completely upsets his selt.eontr0l.
