The man who makes many plans seldom put any of them into execution. The man of orne plan may not he entertaining socially, but he usually wins success, and a successful man is always good company. The Irish clansmen were known as the "MacDunshleibhe" or "O‘Dunâ€" shleibhe." The clan came into being some time in the eleventh century, unâ€" der the leadership of a chieftain named "Dunsleibhe," who was the son of the famous "Eochaidh," brother of MADE HER BABY PLUMP AND WELL "Maolruanaidh." This "Maolruanaidh" was the fortyâ€"seventh king of "Ulidia," of Ulster, and was slain in the great battle with the Danes at Clontarf in 1047. "Donâ€"Levi" was the peculiar Engâ€" lish translation of the name adopted by a branch of the clan, but it was never widespread. The name Donleavy occurs as naâ€" tive to Scotland, and as the name of a sept in the Clan Buchanan. _ But while it may have originated from the same given name as the Irish family name its source is more or less cloudâ€" ed in obscurity, and the only thing cerâ€" tain is that it had an origin independâ€" ent of connection with the Irsh clan.

In the lower reaches, where ice does not form, the water, ordinarily quite clear, becomes cloudy and disâ€" colored. The whole river, 2300 miles long, becomes polsonous. The Ob contains a great amount of Iron. Every year when it freezos over the fron is cut off from the air. The result is that the meatal precipitates, or, in other words, instead of being disâ€" solved in the water, becomes a solid. People living near it have to quench their thirst with melted snow, and most of the fish leave the river and seek safety in the sea. They are told by instinct when the time arrives for their annual exodus. In the spring the ice thaws and the air renders the river free from poison. The fish immediately return. _ They swim up the stream in such vast numâ€" bers that they are packed tightly toâ€" gether.

WITTS‘ Fertilizing TABLETS We have no trade toâ€"day which corâ€" responds exactly to that form which the family name of Pepper was taken. If we were forming the name toâ€"day from the name of the trade, we would have to call it Spicer or Spicegrinder, though the "spicer‘ of the Middle Ages corresponded to our modern grocer. "Pepperer" is really the older form of the family name. _ The pepperers were the grinders and the sellers of pepper, spicialists in that one article of trade. The repetition of the "er" syllable, however, became clumsy on the tongue, and the natural tendency was to shorten it to Pepper, though the reference was still to the trade and not to the article. Can you imagine a river that gets rusty? There is one which is subject to this phenomenonâ€"the River Ob, which falls into the Arctic Ocean and runs through the north of Siberia. Why have we no such English famiâ€" ly name as "Carpetmaker?" Because virtually the only floor covering used in those days was rushes or hay. Why is there no such family name as "Phyâ€" sician?" Because in those days they were known rather as "leeches," and we have the family name of Leeche or Leach. As has been explained in a previous article, which told why the family name of Spicer does not happen to be "Grocer," many terms which were in common use in merieval days are either uncomimon or obsolete toâ€"day, and many words and terms which are usual toâ€"day had not come into general use at the periol when family names were being formed.

' One of the surest signs that the ;blood is out of order are the pimples | and unsightly eruptions that break out on the face or body. The same condiâ€" ! tion is indicated by an attack of ecâ€" | zema or scrofula. You cannot get rid }ot these troubles by the use of purgaâ€" | tive medicines, as so many people try | to do. Purgatives merely gallop lthrough the system and leave it still weaker." What is neeCed when the blood is shown to be out of order is a tonmnic which will restore its missing elements and leave the blood rich and red. For this purpose there is no | other tonic can equal Dr. Wiliiams‘ ‘Plnk Pills, every dose of which helps enrich the blood, drives out impuriâ€" ties, and brings a new feeling of health and energy. Mrs. R. E. Bishop, Hawâ€" thorne Ave., Hamilton, Cnt., tells for the benefit of others what these pills | did for her. She says:â€""I was sufferâ€" ing terribly from scrofula. I doctored with several doctors, but without sucâ€" cess. My complexion was sallow, 1 had no strength, feeling very weak and |lnnguid. My neck was full of lumps called scrofula, and at times they were very painful. After trying several soâ€" called blood medicines, Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills were recommended to me and I g? half a dozen boxes. After taking them I found a decided imâ€" provement in my appearance, and to my joy the lumps were disappearing from my neck. I persevered in the treatment, and finally the only sign left of the trouble was a scar on my neck where one of the swellings broke. Since that time I have been in robust health and heartily recommend Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pilis to any suffering from impure blood." Liberal feeding of inferior live stock, it was shown, was not as great a factor in increasing the labor inâ€" come as was the use of pure bred sires. The high cost of feed, labor and heavy overâ€"head expensas are matters the average farmer finds confronting him every day. Successful farmers have always realâ€" ized the value of good breedings in live stock. Testimonials from these men are easily obtained and should convince the most skeptical that the only way to beat the labor situation, cost of feed, etc., is to keep only those animals that are bred to produce either milk or beet. The pure bred sire has back of him generations of ancestors that were selected and bred with a specific purâ€" pose in view: either the production of beef or the production of milk. These characteristics are highly inâ€" tensified in his blood so that he transâ€" mits them to his offspring, even when only a grade female is used. "One of my beaters was so savagely bitten by a lion once," he announced, "that he had to have his arm ampuâ€" tated." You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Breeders of live stock are facing problems toâ€"day that require expert businessâ€"like handling. When we consider that these figures were obtained from actual farmers, living under average farm conditions, we can hardly discredit them. The grade sire has back of bhim generations of ancestors, that, like "Topsy," just happened. The result is that you can expect nothing but are lable to get anything. There was a short silence while the information sank in, and then the small daughter of the house said in a sympathetic voice: "What a pity, uncle; the poor Hon might just as well have had it.‘ Haphazard hit and miss breeding operations are the causes of low labor incomes and financial failures anong Ontario farmers toâ€"day.
