THE COLBORNE EXPRESS. COLBORNE. ONT.. THURSDAY, NOV. 10, 1921. HEALTHY CHILDREN ALWAYS SLEEP WELL The healthy child sleeps well and during its waking hours is never c /but always happy and laughing. It is 'only the sickly child that is cross peevish. Mothers, if your children do ■hot sleep well; if they are cross and «ry a great deal give them Baby's Own Tablets and they will soon be well and happy again The Tablets are a mild hut thorough laxative which regulate the bowels, sweeten the stomach, banish constipation, colic and indigestion and promote healthful sleep. They are absolutely guaranteed free from 'opiates and may be given to the i horn babe with perfect safety. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. The Need of Population. For the five years 1909 to 1914 Canada received about 1,861,000 immigrants from all sources, or an average of •372,000 a year. If this rate had been maintained the succeeding eleven years would have brought the Do-Sninion over 2,500,000 new citizens Ifrom outside. If for domestic reasons Ithe pace had somewhat slackened, the Increase in population from our side from 1914 to 1921 would surely have exceeded 2,000,000. But the War intervened and the tide of immigration ceased to How. ,The influx of newcomers fell off to a mere dribble. Great Britain and the " .Continent of Europe were practically leliminated as sources of population jand the stream of American settlers dwindled to a minimum. During the or 2,000,000 fewer than might have [ volume ^of exports, a wider home mar-been expected had the world's peace j ket for the products of Canadian fac-been undisturbed.

But for the War the Dominion would have had more people on the land and consequently fewer unemployed the towns and cities. Under such i ditions the nation would have made some show at keeping pace with the overhead charges Imposed by trans-continental railways constructed before their time. There would have been a growing volume of freight and passenger business which naturally would have reduced the heavy deficits on these roads and gone far to place the whole country on a sound financial The lesson is plain. More population is the cure for Canada's fiscal and economic ills. The leeway lost during the last seven years must be recovered. Once the general election is over, the government of the day must devote special attention to the task of getting the soil. From 20,-000,000 to 30,000,000 acres of idle land along the Western railways must be brought under the plow. There is ample room for tens of thousands of additional farmers in old Ontario, New Ontario, British Columbia and the n-year period we received Maritime Provinces. tonly about 550,000 from all sources, t of the land will n Surnames and Their Origin labor, will not only remove sary obstacles to an intensive land settlement movement but actively promote such a movement In keeping with the needs of the nation. In the working out of such a program invaluable co-operation may be expected from the railways, the Provincial Governments, Colonization Associations and other immigration agencies. That way lies the road back to tional prosperity and economic bility for all classes In the community. A DESIRE TO EAT WHATYOU WANT Stomachs Can be Restored to a Healthy Condition. Not to be limited in diet, but to eat whatever he pleases is the dream of every dyspeptic. No promise to restore any stomach to this happy condition, because all people cannot eat the same things with equally satisfactory results. But it is possible to so tone up the digestive organs that a pleasing diet may be selected from articles of food that I cause no discomfort. When the stomach lacks tone there is no quicker way to restore it than to build up the blood. Good digestion without rich, red blood CHESMAN. Variation--Chessman. Racial Origin--English. Source--An occupation. This is another family name of English origin, which Is traceable to the ^occupation of the persons who first Started its use in the hereditary sense. You might suspect from its obvious jtormation that it has some reference jto the ancient game of chess, but this Is not so. The doubling of the "s" in Wne form of the name is but a modern development. ' If you remember that the "ee" so loften occurring in modern English is '» strictly modern development of gelling, and that in nearly every case it was originally an "e," and that the *'ee" was only rarely met with back in th© days when family names were |>eing formed, you get your clue to the Origin of the name. ■ The word "cheese," for instance, Ws spelled "chese" or "ches" in some («wes, for there was no universal Standard of spelling in those days inch as has developed since the $K»wth of the printing Industry and *he publication of grammars and dictionaries. This would give ground for the theory that the name originally meant "cheeseman." Actual historical irecord of the period when the name (Was used in the descriptive sense absolutely substantiates this. The original Chesmans were dealers \a, or makers of cheese, and knowing Jwhat we do of the industrial and commercial system of medieval England, CALHOUN. Variations--Colquhoun. Racial Origin--Scottish. Source--A locality. This family name, Calhoun being modern variation of the true form of Colquhoun, comes from the name of one of the clans of the Scottish Highlanders, who derived it from the name of the locality in which they established themselves, the Barony In West Kilpatrick (or KirHpatrlckl, in Dumbartonshire. Beyond this, the mists of the past cloud the search, for the origin of the place name. By some the name of Colquhoun is supposed to be derived i the given name of "Conachin." By others it is explained as 'Colgch-uoln," a personal name, meaning "war-dog," and virtually the same as the te of that great Irish warrior of iqulty, "Chuchulin." The spelling s not look alike but remember that the gutterals of the Gaelic are rather difficult to Indicate, and that the Gae-speech itself has undergone changes from Its ancient form, just as English, French and German have The Clan Colquhoun, however, dates only from about the year 1240 or so. It was organized and founded by one Humphrey de Kilpatrick, who, though not himself a Gael, had received a grant of land in that section from the Earl of Lennox in the reign of King Alexander II. of Scotland. A Book to Read. It Is a truth worth repeating that the best of books in all the engulfing flood of the best sellers of the day is that masterpiece, age-old yet ever new, the Bible. The modern man, even through the cloak of sometimes archaic forms of speech, is surprised to discover the modernity of the text for him. If he is capable of learning from an object lesson of experience, he will find it in this unfolding of human nature so singularly consistent and persistent through the centuries. The great iters have paid tribute to the in-mce of the text in shaping their n style, quite apart from any influence upon the conduct of life. Were the Bible a chronicle of the doings of i men only, inspiration itself could save it from tedium. But if wants to thrill to the deeds of villains --some of the worst of men are In the best of books. No reader need look far to find the mirror held up to his own nature, is a drama of the human race without a parallel. It Is a book to be read, not merely revered.

Proof of the value of Dr. Williams' Fink Pills in cases of indigestion is given by Mr. John A. McDonald, Tarbot, N.S., who says: "Every sufferer from indigestion has my heartfelt sympathy, as I was once myself a bond slave to it. Eating all became a trial, and as time went on I became a mere skeleton of my former self. I took all sorts of recommended medicines, doctors' and advertised, but to no avail. Then a friend said to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I got a box and I thought before they were done I could feel a change. Then I got six boxes more, and by the time they were used I was eating my meals with regularity and enjoyment. My general health is now good, and it is no wonder that I am an enthusiastic advocate of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills."

Often a cowpath has been allowed to become a village street, and as the village expanded, tradition has made the winding way an expression of a cow's will. Habit is always forging chains to enslave us, so that what has been found bearable by the fathers is accepted by the sons. As children, we were not permitted to drink tea or coffee, because it would stunt our growth or make us nervous and irritable. When older, however, we craved a hot drink with meals, and custom gave us our tea or coffee. Finally upon the instructions of the doctor, Mother gave up her tea and coffee. But that meant nothing in our young lives. Our vitality was then strong enough to throw off any ill effects. But our time came, and we learned by experience that we could not drink tea or coffee. When we had it for breakfast it put our nerves on edge. When we drank it at the evening meal, we tossed about in wakefulness most of the night. And then we found Postum, a pure cereal beverage, free from the harmful drug, caffeine, in tea and coffee. We liked the rich, satisfying flavor of Postum--and also the better health which resulted. And, too. we were surprised to find how many of our neighbors had made the same discovery-- had learned the value of "health first." Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling water.

Since very ancient time sandglasses have been used for timing the boiling of egg,-:. Even nowadays they are in common use for this purpose in hotels and restaurants.

He makes the eggs time themselves, and, when they are cooked, lift themselves out of the boiling water--with the help modification of the sandglass Mother, Quick! Give California Fig Syrup For Child's Bowels w work, easily 1< the children -- PLAYER PIANO FOR SALE. The device for the purpose is a tube containing a number of lead balls. It is attached by a little bracket to the edge of a saucepan, and from the end of it is suspended a wire basket to hold the eggs in the boiling water. A branch of the tube contains a .sandglass, in such a position that the upper bulb of the latter keeps the lead balls in place. But this tipper bulb Is made of rubber and, when the sand nas run out of it, it collapses, allowing the balls to run down into the hollow handle of the tube. The transfer of their weight to the handle causes the end ot the tube to rise and lift the egg-containing basket out of the water. ACHES AND PAINS-SLOAN'S GETS'EM! AVOID the misery of racking pain.
