PiOEUllTIC SUFFERERS May Obtain Relief by Enriching the Blood Supply. In the days of our fathers and grand- fathers, ^rheumatism was thought to be the unavoidable penalty of middle life and old age. Almost every elderly person had rheumatism, as well as many young people. It was thought that rheumatism was the mere, effect of exposure to cold and damp, and it wa treated with liniments and hot applications, which sometimes gave temporary relief, bnt did not remove tne trouble. IB these days there vyre many cripples. .Now, medical science understands that rheumatism is a dis- ease of the blood, and that with good, rich, red blood any man or woman of any age candefyrheumatism. Thereare many elderly people who have never Felt a twinge of rheumatism, and many who have conquered it by simply keep- Ing their blood rich and pure. The blood enriching qualities of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills is becoming every year more widely known, and the more general use ol these pills has robbed rheumatism of Ita terrors. At the flrst , sign' of poor blood, which Is shown by loss of appetite, dull skin and dim eyea, protect yourself against further ravages of disease by taking Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. They have helped i thousands If you give them a fair ' trial they will not disappoint you. Yon can get these pills through any dealer In medicine or by mail at 50 cents a hoi from The Dr. Williams' Medfcine Co., Brockvllle, Ont e Plants That Can See. To speak of a plant being able to nee seems extraordinary, but it can be proved by a simple experiment. Tack a piece of string along the wall parallel to, but <>n one side of, a loose tendril of creeper. In a short time the tendril turns its tip towards the sup- port, reaches for It, and clings to It. How could tt do this without sight? Th common bramble may be no- j tioed growing over a pile of stones or j an old wall.

Not all is from which the aged may suffer from time to time are pro- perly to be regarded as diseases of old age. The ills are of three sorts'. First there are tlve infirmities of old age; the stoop, the stiffness of the joints, the dlmnesa of vilon and the hard- ness of hearing, the slowness of di- gestion and of all the other bodily functions. Those are not diseasee, but merely the results of changes incident to old age and should be regarded as normal. Secondly there are the or- dinary diseases that may attack us at any period of life from the cradle to the grave. Thc.=. although they are not diseases peculiar to old age. may be modified in their course by the al- tered constitution of their victim. Finally we have what may properly be called the diseases of old age. or senile diseases. For some reason per- Surnames and Their Origin C ALDER Variations Cawdor, Caddell.

In the majority of instances those wio bear the family names in this group can trace their ancestry back to the widely known Campbells, one of the principal! clans of the Scottish Highktndere. -There names are born by septs, orj division*-, of that clan, which are lo- cated in the territory indicated. Cawdor is the more truly Gaelic form of the name, Calder and Caddell being regarded as Anglicized versions. | Of the latter two the form Caddell ift ! olcser to the original form.

This family name, Calhoun being a modern variation of the true form of Colquhoun. comes from the name of one of the clans of the Scottteti High- lander.*, who derived it from the name of the locality in which they estab- lish themselves, the Barony In West KllTatrlck (or Kirkpatrick), in Dum- bartonshire. Beyond this, the mists of the past cloud the search for the origin of the pdace name. By some the name of Col- quhoun is-suppccjd to be derived from ( the given name of "Conachin."

The ordinary form of corkscrew, while effective enough for its purpose, often destroys or renders useless the cork on which it is us-ed, frequently breaking it and causing piv.icles of cork to be mixed with hi- liquid in the bottle. A nw device recently -patent- ed in England, avoids these disadvant- ages. In form it is not a screw at all, but consists of two narrow strips of highly flexible spring s-teel fitted Into an aluminum handle. The s-trlps are Dot quite equal in !e>ngth. To remove a cork the longer of the two strips is Inserted between th cork and the neck of the bottle and Is pushed down until the shorter end can also be Inserted. Then both ends are forced home by gently pushing and "rocking" the bottle so as to ap- ply pressure to each strip alternate-ly. An upward pull accompanied by a twiet of the "corkscrew" removes the cork in perfect condition, 'ready for use again.
