Conditions make it necesâ€" sary for the mother to keep the little ones indoors. They are often confined to overheated, badly ventilated rooms and catch colds which rack their whole system. To guard against these colds and to keep the baby well till the betâ€" ter, brighter days come along, a box of Baby‘s Own Tablets should be kept in the house and an occasional dose given the baby to keep his stomach and bowels working regularly. The Tablets are a mild but thorough laxaâ€" tive which never fail to regulate the stomach and bowels and thus they reâ€" lieve colds and simple fevers and keep the baby fit.

The family name of Patterson is one to whichâ€"nelther the English, the Irish nor the Scots can lay exclusive claim, for there are to be found evidences of its origin in all of these countries. There are, however, certain of its variations which can be allocated de finitely to one or another of these countries. The name of Patrickson is one of the least common forms of the name, but where it is found, there is pretty good evidence of its English origin. The given name of Patrick, or "Padâ€" ruig" and "Paruig," as it occurs in Gaelic, with the addition of words meaning "son of" or "descendants of," is, of course, the origin of the family name.

"It is also closely alâ€" lied to chess, and is posibly an earlier form of that game. The Indians who lived in America before the arrival of the whites used to play a crisscross puzzle with grains of corn each marked with some Inâ€" dian sign. It is probable that the Indians brought puzzle working to America from Asta, when there was a stretch of land all the way. "The maglc squares played an imâ€" portant part in the occuitisin and mysâ€" ticlems of the Midd‘lo Ages.

"Heâ€""Well he knew that pearl everybody had respect for songs." One of the origins of this family name, the obvious one, has been disâ€" cussed in a previous article. But the name does not always trace back to such a form as "Roger de la Tour." Often it is traced back to a form in which the "le" is present, but.the "de" is missing. And this does not indicate to the philologist that the phrase "tower of strength" was commonly apâ€" plied to individuals in those days. Deeper search, however, reveals an occupation, that of the "tawer," from which the name has come in many inâ€" stances. The "tawer" of the medieval period was a specialist in the tanning indusâ€" try, who whitened and prepared goat skins and other soft leathers, to serve as raw material for the glove and shoe makers.

Galen supposed that an alteration in the due proportion of these bhumours gave rise to disease, though he did not congiler this to be its only cause. Thus cancer, it was thought, might reâ€" su‘t from an excess of black bile, and rheumatism from an excess of phiegm. He regarded old age as resulting from a diminution of the fiery and aqueous elements. Hence the necesâ€" sity of keeping old people warm and giving them hot liquids to consume. Thus, to bile, as to fire, were attri buted the properties of heat and dry ness; to blood and air those of hea! and moistness; and finally black bile like earth, was said to be cold and dry Galen was born at Peramum, in Asia Minor.

The man who does nothing does somebody. Pain is one of Nature‘s warnings that somethinz is wrong with the body. Indigestion, for instance, is characterâ€" ized by pains in the stomach, and ofâ€" ten about the heart; rheumatism by sharp pains in the limbs and joints; headaches are a sign that the nerves or stomach are out of order. In some ailments, such as araemia, pain is not so prominent. In this case Nature‘s warning take the form of pallor, breathlessness after slight exertion, palpitation of the heart,â€"and loss of appetite. Whatever form these warnâ€" ings take, wise people will not ignore the fact that many diseases have their origin in poor blood, and that when the blood is enriched the trouble disâ€" appears. Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills are most helpful in such cases because they purify and build up the blood to its normal strength. In this way it tones up the nerves, restores the apâ€" petite and gives perfect health.
