The Blind Side. r When the Biood is Out of Order the Nerves Are Starved. The nervous system Is the governing j system of the whole body, controlling | the heart, lungs, digatlon and brain; , so it is not surprising that nervous , disturbances cause acute distress. The first stages of nervous debility are noted by li^tabillty and restlessenss, ' in whwh the*victlms seem to be op- ' presse:! by their nerves. The matter . requires immediate attention, for ; nothing but suitable treatment will , prevent a breakdown. The victim, howover, need not despair, for even severe nervous disorders may be re- lieved by improving the condition of the blood. It is because Dr. Williams' Pink Pills enrich the blood that this . medicine has proved beneficial in ner- , votis disorders. The nerves thrive on | the better blood made by these pills; [ the appetite improves. Indigestion Is , better. sleeplessness no longer troubles the nerve-shattered victim, and life genorally takes on a cheerful aspect. The value cf these pills in ; cases of this kind is shown by the ex- perience of Mrs. John W. Macdonald, Cardigan, P.E.I., who says: "I have ' much cause to be grateful to Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. I was suffering from nervous breakdown, and my con- dition gave alarm to both my friends and myself. I goffered almost con- ' : tinuotisly from nervous headaches, my apnerite was poor, I hardly got any sleep, and in every way I was badly rundown. A friend advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after I had taken them for a while there was a noticeable improvement In my con- dition. I continued using tho pills until I had taken twelve boxp-s, when evary symptom of the trouble was gone, and I have since enjoyed the best of health." 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.r-0 from The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brockville, Ont. Slow rivers run four miles am hour; rap-ad cnss averairo seven miles. "I'm afraid, debtor, that religion doesn't mean anything to me," the boy, said with embarrassment. "I'm re-; luctant to say it, for you've been kind; to helip me with this Greek I made a r.ic:;s of last term; but. I guess my attitude is a family tradition. Though my father never made liffht of reM- griO'Ji, he said that it had nerved its purpo.e when people cculdr.'t think i for themselves, and he'd no more ridi- cule it than he would snub an old,' tottering:,- gray-haired man who had outlived his usefulness. That's how father looked at it, He was bitter asrain.-t some of the old doctrines : the Trinity, for instance, future' punishment, and ihe idea that no one had a chance of being saved unless 1 he was in the church. He said th:it those doctrines had made men nar- row and intolerant and uncharitable. They've been laid on the shelf as curiosities that's how he expressed it; and he said that all religion was headed the sains way." A smil? showed on the minister's fine, e!dwly face. "You've remarked that these rooms are ple^anl and c"sy in ihe eveniii!*." he said, speak- ing slowly. "When you proposed reading Greek with me that morning over at Preston you didn't know where I lived, and ycu may remember that I gave you minute directions how to find the house. It was late when you pot here the first evening; it was al-; mnst nine o'clock. Suppose I had in- structed you to come up the street over across, through Mayhew's back yard and up agrainst the blind side of the manse; you'd have found a sciid brick wall, four high windows and not a glimmer of light. That rear wall is an integral part of the building, the house wouldn't stand a minii't? without it, but it isn't a gocd side for a stran.ter to get in at. "I've been wondering, Henry,! whether you haven't approached re-' ligion on the bl'nd side. So many poople do Just that; they accent all' tho mysteries of the Christian faith,; all the hard, stern elements of God's moral government, an.l everything between the covers of the Bible that seems to make it an antiquutetl book. It never occurs to them to go round to tha front entrance, where there's a porch lamp and such oosy rooms as righteousness arwl and lovo and hope and God's bender fatherhood. Those tilings aren't out of date; they never will be. If mn should lay them on the slhe'.f as mere curiasities, our old world would be headed for chaos. "Tho blind aide of religion Is a part of it, exa<-t.ly as the dark rear wall is a part of this too-use; but we've got to ap'pn>j:.-h by way of the lighted room;. That is God's invariable rule. He offers love as the royal interpreter of things that are hard to under- stand. We've got to be at home in the cosy, lighted rooms before we can apir.-e;i:a!>2 tlhe utility ctf the rear wall." "The blind side." The boy spoke the wcHs softly. "Yes, it might he." He looked up brightly. "Thank you, d'octar, for giving me a new clue. Secretly I've wanted to find one for a long time." SATISFOJOTHERS No otlier medicine gives the same satisfaction to mothers as do Baby's: Own Tablets. They are equally good for the newborn babe or the growing child and ;xre absolutely guaranteed to be free from opiates or other harmful drugs. They are a mild but thorough lavatlve and cannot possibly do harm they always do good. Concerning them Mrs. Jos. Ache. Coteau Road, N.B., writes: "I think that Bahy's Own Tablets are a marvellous medi- cine for little ones. I gave them to my little girl with such good results that I now strongly recommend them to all mothers." The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cts. a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brockville, Ont.

TRY MAGNESIA Surnames and Their Origin PENMMAN. Variations Pent-man, Penman, Pen- Main. Racial Origin Welsh. Source A locality. Knowing how easily family names have developed from nicknames and; occupations, one is tempted to believe that that of Petmiman and its varia-' tions made their first appearance as! MjrtKtr.iei descriptive of an occupation, ay that cf the maker of peris. While this origin is not an impos-| ible cue and, indeed, in some cases may be the true one, the medieval re- 1 cords and tax lists offer pretty good| indications that it is a family name which ha* developed from a totality. Such a form as ''Roger de Peneman" must not be read to mean "Roger the! Penman," notwithstanding the fact! that in certain criminal circles of ouri own day "Louie de Dip" would be' more vori-octiy rendered as "Louis the, Pickpocket." The "de" found in medi-! orvu! English names is not tha saniei as the "de" v.-hich is a diaWttsl vam- tki' of "the," r.or >et the Di.bch variu-! tion cf l!if German "dor," which. 1 t ran ;_(;!> enough, happens to corre-! spor.d with i!, in both spellling andi mean'r.).'. It was, of course, ihaj French word for "of," which was n>5ar-, ; u?e<l in descriptive surname* j ocaikie?. Ponmain is a name in Wailea. Those who bear! his family rvame are either Welsh in; it or else trace their ancestry to Saxon or Norman settler* in COTTER. Variations Kotter, MacCotter. Racial origin Irish, Danish. Source A descriptive name. Here i an Irish family name con- cernin-g whoso origin there is some room for doubt. The question is whether it is a name of purely Gaelic origin or a Gaelic adaptation of a Danish word. While the period of Danish incur- sions in England and Irel-ar.d was sev- eral centuries prior to tha time wheu family names began to form in the former country, it by no moans ante- .'!,: the widespread use of surnames in Ireland, though it was prior to the establishment of surnames by the law of King Briar Bom. Cotter appears to fo* tlie develop- ment of a Danish word, meaning "cot- tager" or "boat-builder," a word which is to be found to-day in the modern Danish faii'ily name of Kotter. The Gaelic form of the name of the clan, in Mial&'jw.

KarH< r Ai!jr!id/,ed forms of tin 1 nsnif! were "AiacC'ottyr" and "MacC'oibhir," forms somewhat closer to the Gasrw.
