A WOMAN'S HEALTH NEEDS GREAT CARE When the Blood Becomes Watery a Breakdown Follows. Every woman's health is dependent upon the condition of her blood. How many women suffer with headache, pain in the back, poor appetite, weak digestion, a constant feeling of weari- ness, palpitation of the heart, short- ness of breath, pallor and nervous- ness? Of course all these symptoms may not be present the more theru are the worse the condition of the blood, and the more necessary that you should begin to enrich it without delay. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a splendid blood-building tonic. Every dose helps to make better blood which goes to every part of the body and brings new health to weak, despondent people. Dr. Williams' Pink Pill- are valuable to all women but they are particularly useful to girls of school age who become pale, languid and ner- vous. There can be neither health nor beauty without red blood which gives orightness to the eyes and color to the cheeks and lips. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up the blood, as is shown by the experience of Mrs. Jos. E. Veniotte, West Northfleld, N.S., who says: "For several years I was In a bad state of health. I was pale and nervous, my appetite was poor, and I suffered from weakness, head- aches and a feeling of oppression. I got so nervous that I was afraid to stay in the house alone. All this time I was taking medicine, but it only did not help me, but I was growing weak- er. Finally I decided to try Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, and after using six boxes I felt much better. I had a bet- ter appetite, slept better and felt stronger. However, I continued tak- ing the pills for a couple of months longer and now I am feeling us well as ever I did. I give all the credit to Dr. Williams' rink Pills, and hope that my experience may he of benefit to some other weak woman." You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer in medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. *- Quite Likely.

The real designer of the parnchuro was Leonardo da Vinci, in 15TO, al- though at the coronation of the Em- peror Fo Kien, as early as 1306, Chinese acrobats were seen to jump from a high scaffolding with huge pararhute umbrellas. Major Orde Lees, who has made more parachute descents from aero- 1 planes than any other man, considers j that all passenger aeroplanes should carry life-saving parachutes, just as ships carry lifebelts and boats. In a recent lecture he referred to a scheme of lowering a whole cabinful of pas- j sengers by one great parachute. The prevailing idea that parachutes ! frequently fail to open is a fallacy. In | 600 parachute descents from observa- i tion balloons during the war, only | three failures occurred. Many inventors do not realize that ! if a parachute is much less than 28 ft. 1 in diameter the speed of descent is j fatal. In 1914 an Austrian tailor j jumped from the Eiffel Tower in Paris [ with a combined Parachute overcoat. I The apparatus worked perfectly, but | as it was only one-sixth the size of a standard life-saving parachute, it de- scended too quickly and its inventor was killed. The real danger of parachuting is in landing. You never know where you are going to land. Major Lees has described how in July, 1920, a rival parachutist in Sweden challenged him i to land on a given spot, and how he ; dropped from only 400 ft., and scored ! an "inner." His rival ascended to 3,000 ft. and landed a third of a mile away ! His Car. Since Jenkins had a motor car He's hardly ever home, But with his family delights The countryside to roam.

Most of the laud on which our Cana- dian forests now stand is not suitable for agriculture, but it is suitable for growing line crops /of trees to keep our saw-mills, our wagon factories, our furniture factories, and our paper mills running at full force forever. Let us all take part in protecting our valuable forests. Fire is their enemy. Therefore let us be careful with tire when in the woods.

The intensity of ths light of the sun is so great that even the sky for a con- siderable distance from it is very bright, and sufficient to overwhelm completely the image of any atars that might be in the field. This can be better understood when it is stated that the brightness of the sun is equal to 120,000,000.000 tirst-magnitude stars. - The subject of the apparent posi- tion of the stars, as seen near the sun's limb, has recently become of great Not So Dark Now.

Surnames and Their Origin KIRK Variations Kirke, Kirkman, Church, Churchman. Racial Origin English. Source A locality. Here is a group of truly local sur- names, all founded on the word "church," which undoubtedly sprang up more or less simultaneously in all parts of England, and among n.any people unrelated to one another. The sharp difference between the variations spelled with a "k" and with "ch" is at once apparent. It is also absolutely indicative of whether the name originated in the north of Eng- lland, including the Scottish lowlands, or in the south. The "cb." of course, belongs to the latter, as you may judge from the fact that the modern word is spelled that way. and that modern English is but tho outgrowth of certain southern dialect.; (those in the neighborhood of London) of tl) old Anglo-Saxon, tinctured principally with importations of French words brought over by the Normans . The difference in pronunciation is more modern, for originally there was Httle difference between the sound of the "ch" and the "k." Both had the "k" sound; only one was a little sharper than the other. Old forms of the name were purely descriptive. A "churchman" or a "kfrkman" was simply one who dwelt near a church. At other times a man .would be referred to as "Walter atte Church" or "atte Kirk," the "atte" meaning "at the," and the prefix be- ing dropped in the course of time as the name became a family "tag" rath- er than merely Indicative of a place of residence. prosperity are due, in a large ruea- other." .sure, to her agricultural development, i Thinking the reply very smart, she it is highly desirable that electric ser- : determined to relate the incident to I vice should be extended also to the i ler husband. farms to enable them to enjoy the full benefits of Its service. , o i d him hjs coat was very short." | Wild Life in Dominion Parks.

Foster Is a family name whose orig- in is not quite plain. That of Forster is a little leas clouded. That of For- rester !s quite plain. The fact is that Foster and Korster j are but shortened forms of Forrester, and all three are derived from the oc- cupation of forester. These names, like those of Warren, Parker. Woodrow, Woodruff and the like reflect vividly the social and eco- ] nomic structure of medieval English : times. Hunting was the chief diver- sion both of the aristocracy and the common people. Woody wastelands . vere common and extensive, but the ' laws governing their administration and use were detailed, and formed no mean purl of the entire legal code. Where to-day we would speak of a game "preserve," the medieval Eng- lish divided these lands into "forests," "chases." parks" and "warrens," ac- , cording to the extent of privileges at- ' tached to them. The "forester" was not merely one who lived in the woods and gained hi| livelihood from them. He was an offi- cer charged with their safekeeping and the guarding of their owners' and the. public's interest. He was, in short, an officer whose position was not incomparable to that of the sheriff.
