SmaoKs and Iber OrigB WOOLLEY. Naciat Origin â€" Engllah. lourca â€" A locality. Here Is a family name Ukely to pu»- (]« you or deceive you aa to its origin. It is aJnsoat impowible to get away from the idea that in some way It is sonected with the word "woolly." It has notliiag to do with wool, how- aver. Nor dbea it belong to that class of family which have deveU^ied from phrafiea descriptive of personality in any way. It Is a development from a snmame which was deecrlptlve of the kyality, or localities, in which its org- faial bearers lived, or with which they w«re connected in some way. And you don't recognize it* oilgin readily, becaufi« it is a comipoand of two Am^lo-Saxon words, one of vrhich long ago dlsaj>peared and one which is virtually obsolete to-day. "Wold" was a word tiseil by the An- glo-Saxons to designate something wiM or uncivilized, a sort of wilder- nees. You'll get the connection by changing the "o" to an "i" in the word. And "ley" in its broadest sense meant "land" or ground." A "wold ley,,' therefore, was a wad or uncultivated piece of ground, or hillside, without the normal forest growth. DIAMOND Variations â€" Oimend, Diinent, Olamant Racial Origin â€" Dutch and French. Sourceâ€" A given name. Here is a {amily name (or the origin of which several explanations have been advanoed. On the face of it yea might suppose that it was a develop- ment In some way from our word in- dicating the precious stone. It is not impassible, of course, that in an individual caee, here and there, the name did originat« thait way. But so far as the available records go, this is not considered probable. It may t>e that in some Instancea the family name was form-ed from an An- glo-Saxon given name. But there is oothing even to indicata this. Ap- parently it has come from a given name which, among the Dut<^, was at first "Dieman," and then "Dlament"; and among the French, "Dimap." It was also found among the Flemish as "Deman," and the French call it "De- mandt." AH of these linguistic varia- tions ere traceable as descendants of the old German "Diomund," a given nam« indicating that it& bearer was devot«d to the protection of his fol- lowers. In some instances the family name may have been formed before, and In others after It was brought into Eng- lish. ttM wblek are dlapUyad in tb* Soyal Ontario KuMiun of AraJMClogy iB Toronto.

To make the teething period easy on baby the stomach and bowels mast bo kept iweet and regular. This can be done by the uoe of Baby's, Own Tablets^ â€" the ideal laxative for little onee. The Tablets are a sure relief for all the minor ailments of childhood such as constipation, colic, indigestion, colds and simple fevers. They always do (ood â€" never harm. The Tablets are •old by medioine dealers or by mall at 26 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont The First Banks. Few things play a more imi)ortant part in our lives to-day than the sys- tem of banking. The word bank originally meant a tradesman's etall, and the tirst bank in anything like the modern sense exieted about 2,700 years ago. We learn about this bank from clay tab- lets discovered near Babylon. Ap- parently the flict firm of bankeira was that of Egibl and Son, who flourished in Babylon about 600 or 700 B.C. The early Chinese were in the habit of issuing paper money â€" Indeed, they got into difficulties by issuing too muchi There wae a bank In China about A.D. 1,000. .But banking as we understand It to- day did not begin until the twelfth cen- tury, when the Bank of Venice was eBtabU8he<l. This was followed by the Bank of Barcelona, in Spain, and the Bank of Stockholm, in Sweden. Tte latter was the first bank in Europe to Iseue paper money. This was in 1868. Other early banks were the Bank of St. George, at Genoa, the Bank of Ham- burg, and the Bank of Amsterdam. Roasting a Safe« There must be no doubt about a safe. Therefore a safe that Is being tested at the Underwriters' Laboratories has to undergo some pretty severe usage. If it does not weaken, says Mr. Harry Chase Brearley in a Symbol of 'Safety, it wins a label of utter trustworthi- ness. First the safe is submitted to the "explosion test." Inside are maga- zines and loose papers- and a recording thermometer. A photograph is taken of them. Then the doors are closed, and the safe is enveloped in flames. In less than three minutes the tem- perature exceeds a thousands degrees ; and in fifteen minutes it has reached seventeen hundred degrees. Those are extreme conllagration conditions. For the second test the safe is Hams' Pink PlUs have been so suc- cessful la the treatment of diseases due to poor, thin blood, and it is also the reason why they are so successful in building up strength after fevers and acute diseases.

During my girlhood Dr. Williams' Pink Pills tack of anaemia, and my motlier urged that I should try them again. The doctor could not understand why we wanted to try these pills, but we de- cided to do so. After taking Mx boxes a decided change was taking place. I was actually getting hungry and anxi- ous to live. After using twelve boxes a miracle was worked. I could walk and felt my strength coming back, and people on all sides were asking what was helping me, and we were not slow in telling them it was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
