THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., THURSDAY, NOV. 17, 1921. GLAD HE TRIED THE TONIC TREATMENT Through Its Use Strength and Vigor Was Restored. To be tired after exertion is natural. Rest and food restore the body to normal after such fatigue. But to be tired all the time is a symptom of an anaemic condition that will not be corrected until the blood is built up. Such an anaemic condition is so gradual in its approach and generally so lacking in acute pains that it is often difficult to persuade the sufferer to do anything for it. But it is not a oondition that corrects itself. If the blood is not enriched the trouble will increase. The nerves will be undernourished and neuralgic pains will follow. Digestive disturbances often result from thin blood, sleep disturbed and a general breakdown may occur. Mr. Wilson Johnson, Ninevah, N.S., says: "A few years ago my system was in a badly run down condition. My nerves seemed always on edge, and I found myself so weak that I could hardly do any work. I suffered from headaches and from pains in the back and under the shoulders, and was often so sleepless at night that when morning came I felt as tired as when I went to bed. I was taking medicine all the time, but it was doing me no good. Then I read the testimonial of a man whose condition had been similar to mine, and who strongly recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I decided to give this medicine a fair trial, and when I had taken six boxes I felt much better. I continued taking the pills until I had taken six more boxes, and I can only say I am glad I did so, as I am now enjoying the best of health, and I advise all men who feel run down to give these pills a good trial." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can be obtained from any dealer in medicine, or by mall at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Eventide. The day is past and the tollers cease, The land grows dim 'mid the shadows gray, And hearts are glad, for the dark brings peace At the close of day.

It speaks of peace that comes after strife, Of the rest He sends to the hearts He tried, Of the calm that follows the stormiest life- God's Why Your Ears Burn. Everybody has experienced the feeling of a burning ear, but few understand how it occurs. Sudden frights, excitement, worry, and anxiety are the causes. The sensation is due to the liberation jot thyroid and other gland substances, which have a tendency to paralyse the muscles in the walls of the skin. This temporary palsy permits their elastic walls to expand, and a stream of blood rushes into the cheeks and ears. When you realize that the heat of the blood as it circulates through the body is about one hundred degrees Fahrenheit, it is plain that a "sudden concentration in one place causes a rise in temperature. The spot affect-feels for the moment like a flery furnace. Surnames and Their Origin YORK Racial Origin--English. Source--A locality. The origin of York as a family name Is not hard to guess. It comes from the city in England of that name. The city of York is almost as important historically as London, and it is as old, antedating the Roman invasion, and having been founded by the Celtic Britons long before the first Anglo-Saxon settlers made th^.r ap- P Linking the names of York and London brings up an interesting question. Why is the name of London virtually never met with as a family name, and that of York rather seldom, while family names derived from smaller cities, and even towns and villages are quite common? At the period when men's neighbors began to link their given names with the names of the places from which they had come, to distinguish different Individuals of the same given name, It would have constituted little differentiation to use such a name as London. London was such an important place, the seat of the government and so many men came from London. There might be several Johns from London in a very small community. With York it was much the same, though not to the same degree. York was still a big and important place, but- it wasn't the seat of the Government. Hence we find a number of iforks in the list of English family aames, but not as many as of Liiicolns. OGILVIE. Variations -- Ogilby, O'Gilby, Galve; Galwey, Gilbey, Gilboy. Racial Origin--Irish. Source--A given name. In Scotland the name of the Clan Ogilvie, which was discussed previously, is traced back to-an origin in I But in Ireland there was another clan of this name. That is., the naim was the same if you make the compari sion with certain of the Anglicized variations. In reality, however, lt is not the same name at all when you look at the Gaelic form. This clan was known as bhe "O'Glall-Buidhe," and the earliest records show that it became an independent clan unit about the year 1100 A.D.. It was one of those little accidents of history that all persons whose names trace back to this clan are net bearing the name of O'Shaughnessy instead, for the chieftain who found the Clan "O'Giall-Buidhe" was the son of the first chieftain of the O'Shaughnessys. His given name, from which the clan name is derived, had a meaning of "yellow hostage" or fair-haired follower." It is to be noted that the true meaning of these old Irish given names in which this element "gil" or "giall" appears cannot be adequately rendered by any single English word. "Hostage" merely comes the closest to it, or "servant," or "follower." The meaning, however, was far from that of "prisoner" or "slave." There was embodied in it also the thoughts of "loyalty," "honorable service," "emulation of" and the like. BSTf OW HUMOR Mrs. Alfred Tranchemontagne, St. Michel des Saints, Que., writes: -- "Baby's Own Tablets are an excellent medicine.

In some form or another dice have existed in every period of history. They are shown on early Egyptian monuments, and some dug up at Thebes recently are exactly similar to those in use to-day. They are mentioned in laws regulating games played in ancient Greece and Rome and most other countries in Europe. The invention of dice is attributed to Palamedes, one of the heroes who sailed against Troy, about the year 1244 B.C., but the use of cubes with numbered sides for gambling purposes is probably much earlier. Frequent passages in the works of ancient writers and numerous repre- ntations in marble and paintings show how popular dice-playing was among them. Pineapple Products. The pineapple growers of Hawaii, lxious to encourage new uses for their product, are now putting the fruit up in can®, crushed or gratedi, as well as sliced. Grated or crushed pineapple Is ginning to find favor as an ingredient of sodas and sundaes. Pineapple pie, made with the fruit thus preparei declared excellent. L Why guess about it-- When you can know about it? Suppose a guide said-- "This way there's a safe and pleasant road to your destination, with no risks or troubles on the way," and-- "That way there's a road that a good many have stalled on and turned back from, but you may get through." Which would you take? Postum is a thoroughly agreeable and satisfying meal-time drink, and you're sure that it's perfectly safe for health. Tea and coffee contain drug qualities which disturb the health of many. Postum or tea and coffee? Which road? Why guess when you can know? Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling water. Postum Cereal (in packages of larger bulk, for those who prefer to make the drink while the meal is being prepared) made by boiling for 20 minutes. Sold by all grocers. Postum for Health "There's a Reason" Got His Answer. A bumptious young American farm-went to England to learn his busi-sss, but where he went he pretended that it was far easier to teach the farmers than to learn anything from them. "I've got an idea," he said one to a grizzled old Northumbrian agriculturist, "for a new kind of fertilizer which will be ten thousand s as effective as any that has ever been tried. Condensed fertilizer-- that's what it is. Enough for an acre of ground would go in one of my waistcoat pockets." "I don't doubt it, young gentleman," said the veteran of the soil. "What is more, you'll be able to put the crop into the other waistcoat pocket." MONEY ORDERS. A Dominion Express Money Order for five dollars costs three cents. Not All Profit. He was a struggling Scottish farmer, and he had the good fortune to win the hand of a widow who possessed in her own right the sum of flVe thousand pounds.- Shortly before the wedding a friend went to congratulate him. "It's a fine thing for ye, this weddin", Sandy!" he "Aye, it's no' bad," replied the farm- "No bad? Why, it's worth five thousand pounds tae ye, isn't it?" "No," sighed Sandy, "less than that. Ye see, 'twill cost me seventeen an' saxpence for a marriage licence!" Minard's Liniment for Distemper. Real Friendship. What true friendship consists in depends on the temperament of the man who has a friend. It is related that at the funeral of Mr. Scroggs, who died extremely poor, the usually coldblooded Squire Tightfist was much affected. '"You thought a great deal of him, I suppose?" some one asked him. "Thought a great deal of him? I 3hould think I did. There was a true friend.

Mrs. Patience--"You must be more careful with the china, Ann. That was a complete eighty-piece dinner set when you came here." Ann, the Maid--"But I'm saving the pieces, ma'am, an' you have a thousand by this time!" How It Worked. "When we were married," said Brown, "my wife and I made an agreement that I should make the rulings in all the major things and she in all the "And how has it worked?" Black inquired. Brown smiled wanly. "So far," he replied, "no major matters have come up." Must Be Proved. "Well, Pat," said Bridget, "what kind of a bird have you brought home in that cage?" "Well, it's a raven," replied Pat. "A raven? And what did you bring home a bird like that for?" "Well, I read in a paper the other night that a raven has been known to live for 300 years. I don't believe it, so I am going to put it to the test. Self-Effacing. Lifting yourself by your boot straps seems easy compared with the feat of SHE COULD HARDLY CUNB THE STAIRS the marsupials that the teacher questioned Johnny about. "What are marsupials?" she asked the little fellow. "Animals that have pouches in their stomachs" came the quick reply. "And for what purpose do they t the pouches?" continued the teacher, ignoring the slight inaccuracy of the j COULDN'T RAISE HANDS reply. "I am sure you know that too.' "Yes'm," said Johnny promptly "The pouches are for them to crawl into and conceal themselves punsued." Mother!

Amusing the Neighbors. Johnnie age six, was missed by his mother one day for some time, am when he reappeared she asked: "Where have you been, my son?" "Playing postman," replied Willie "I gave a letter to all the houses ii our street. Real letters, too." "Where on earth did you get them? questioned his mother in amazement. "They were those old ones in youi wardrobe drawer, tied up with rib bon," was the innocent reply. Puzzling the Twins. James and John are twin brothers and look so much allike that it puzzle for their parents and friends to tell which is James and which Is John. Is it strange then that the little fellows themselves were deceived? They were just learning to talk when the following funny incident occurred: One day mother had given John a bath and dressed him in fresh, clean clothes. She was carrying him across the room in her arms, when she happened to pass the big mirror. She stepped up to it to let John see himself looking so fresh and dainty. What do you suppose John said to his own sweet re-fletion? He waved his little hand and said, "Hello, James!" For several months after that it was the delight of the family to take one of the twins to the mirror and hear him greet his own reflection as his brother. Look Like a Success!

"If others hadn't allowed their statements published in tne papers' I wouldn't have known about Tanlac and would still be suffering, so now for the benefit of others I want to tell what the medicine has done for me," said Mrs. John Dale, 65 Catharine St. South, Hamilton, Ont.

At times my arms became so swollen and painful I couldn't raise my hands above my head, and my fingers were so stiff I could scarcely hold the coffee pot to pour out the coffee. "I could hardly go up a flight ol stairs on account of the stiffness in my muscles. I became so nervous the noises made by my children playing about the house made me frantic. "Seeing so many fine statements in the papers about Tanlac, I decided to get a bottle and see if it would do me any good. Well, my rheumatism got better with the first few doses and, that I have finished the second bottle the last trace of it is gone. My nervousness is gone too, and I am ao happy over being free from pain I in't fully express it." Tanlac is sold by leading druggists everywhere. Adv.
