Surnames and Their Origin CLAYTON Variations â€" Newton, Leighton, Lay- ton, Hllten. Racial Origin â€" Anglo-Saxon. Source â€" Localities. This little group of family names Is typical of the larger part ot the entire classification of "ton" names. They as a rule when former residents set- tled In other communitiee.. TUMULTY. Variations â€" Tomalty, Talty. Racial Origin â€" Irish. Source â€" A given name. At Just what period this Irl^h clan are given here as varlatioBS of one j came Into being Is not quite clear. The another, not because they have com© j clan name, however, is traceable back from the same source, but from the came kind of source. This source la Anglo-Saxon place THE CHEEIIFUL UM Is One Who Has the Rich. Red Blood of Good Health. The fact that one woman Is bright- eyed, rosy-cheeked, strong and cheer- ful, while another is pale, weak and depressed is due more often than other- wise to the condition of the blood. The way to remedy this depressed state is to build up the blood, and tor names. This does not by any means establish the first bearers of the sur- 1 name can be rendered with the Eng- lish alphabet, it is "O'Tombailtaigh." The spelling is formidable, but the pro- nunciation ia not, the native Gael pro- nouncing it Just about the way we pro- nounce the variations Tumulty and Tomalty, with the clan-signlfylng "O" before it. This "0" In Irish names, however, is but the modern development of the more ancient forms "Hua" and "Hul," sometimes rendered in English as "Ua" and "Hy." One la singular and the other plural In this sense; the former Is used when speaking of to a period prior to that in which the this purpose there is no other tonic majority ot English family names or- j can eijual Dr. Williams" Pink Pills. A Iginated. | case in point is that of Mrs. Melvin As nearly as the Irish spelling of the I Abra, Graveley Street, Vancouver, B.C names as of Anglo-Saxon blood, how- ever. They might have been and un- doubtedly were in many cases Nor- mans. But It was back in the Anglo-Saxon period that the place names were formed around the old word "tun," which has given us our modern word "town." To the Anglo-Saxons this word meant primarily an inclosed place, which, ot course, most of their towns were. Thus If the locality were noted for a clay soil, the "tun" became known as Clayton and grew into a who says: â€" "About two years ago was a very sick woman. I seemed to be wasting away and getting thinner all the time. I grew so weak that the doctor sent me to the hospital, but the treatment there did not help me and I returned home. Then I tried a num- th* day wttk a neighbor; she's a crlp-| pl«» body and can't get out much, ao I •top now and then to gather b«r a basketful ot bullacei and wild grapes. You can see the viae* yonder. And don't them cluatera of sumac look pr&tty, J«fet like ilamln' torches? That slim tree with the few red leaves on it la a persimmon, and they are good now that frost's touched 'em. I filled I the basket with them and with some open clusters of chinquapins. Squirrels gather 'em, possoms came to eat the perslccond and grow fat as butter. Truly this is, as the hymn says, a land of corn and wine â€" which i« Jest a name for all Ood's plenty." The young couple gazed round them with opened eyes. "Me a-ninnln' on, and you askin' the nighest way out!" said the old lady, laughing deprecatlngly. "But when I NURSE GHAPPELLE SAYS TANLAC BRINGS MOST GRATIFYING RESULTS Nurse With 15 Years' Experi- ence Urges Use of Tanlac â€" Tells of Her Mother's Ex- perience With WorlcTs Fa- mous Tonic "I have direct and persona! know- ledge of so many cases where TAN- LAC hae restored health and strength '. and helped weak, run-down people to . get on their feet that I know It to be an unusual medicine," is the emphatic , manner in which Mrs. M. E. Chappelle, : Blue Mount and Thomas Ave., Wau- wotosa, Wis., a practical nurse of fif- teen years' experience, pays tribute to get started on the country, why I Just forget. The Lord made a sight of pret- ty things tor travelers to see if they got eyes to see 'em with. You follow the main tracks like you're doin' and you'll soon come cut on the Highway." j ^7,;â„¢^^ tre*a7m7nt They called cheery good-bys and ' waved back at the odd little figure In the purple calico. For a time the two were silent; then the young wife spoke softly to her husband. "See, dear, right ahead of ua are a whole family i;;',; he7 standby everTnc^ of squirrels in that hollow limb. I counted tour, and there comes another with a nut in her mouth!" "I see; and over yonder In that thicket there's a covey ot quail." "And there right overhead is a vine Just loaded with grapes! Stop the car and let's pick some. There really are so many things to see In these ber of tonics with no better results. ] woods If,"â€" she looked into her hus- town of that name. Newton would single person who Is a member of the signify an Inclosure recently built (re- cent In- the view of those who named it). Leighton and the modern simpli- fication, Layton, would be an inclosure on a "leigh" or "ley,"- that Is, meadow land. And Hilton would designate such an Inclosure on a hillside or hill- top. Such names became family names clan, the latter when the speaker is referring to several members or to the clan as a whole. The Irish clan names all are taken fr<Tm the given names of the chieftains who founded them. In this case the given name was "Tomhailt," with a meaning ot "the waster" or "the gen- erous one." Animals That Advertise. Everywhere one goes in the coun- try signs may be seen which indicate that creatures of the wild know the value of advertising Just as much as do human beings. Often this advertising may be Just a dodge on the part of the insect or animal to avoid the attentions of an- other creature who has designs upon him as a delectable dinner morsel. This peculiarity of Nature is notice- able in regard to the butterfly, which Is an ingenious little publicity mer- chant. Certain kinds of butterflies have noxious quaHles which are not to the liking ot birds, but there are other species which are Just the re- verse. The latter consequently as- sume the colorings ot the former, and so, by advertising their undesirabillty aa food, manage to preserve their lives. The same tactics are adopted by beetles, but it is from bird and animal life that we get the best examples. Certain kinds of snipe, tor Instance, set up a peculiar shriek as soon as they catch sight of a shooting-party, and this Is kept up until they have advertised far and wide that the gun- ners are on the look out. Sheep's Secret Signals. Wild sheep, also, are clever In this respect. Thfl^y need only to see one ot their number at attention, with head up and ears pricked forward, to be- come suspicious and ready for flight. Again, when deer register the pre- sence of B foe, they send a signal to every member of the band to be cau- tious-. The wild bellow of the lion Is often uttered not because he Is angered and ready to fight. He knows that to keep away his foes he has but to remind them of his power, and he does so by proclaiming his strength far and wide. With Just the same object does the rattlesnake shake his castanets. The sound of them reaches the ears of his foes, and, awed with the dreadful warning of the snake's latent power, they rapidly disappear. But It l8 at the mating season In the CORNS Lift Off-No Pain!

There Is a general flaunting of colol- and parade of strength, with the object of proving to a possible mate how much more desirable than his rival each one Is. This competition for favor is par- ticularly outstanding in bird life, and the display of colors and ornaments to catch the female eye Is carried to per- fection. The great peacock, while conscious of his beauty, at the same time is aware that his rival may be Just as beautiful, and to oust him from favor he tidies himself up and, as it were, puts on his Sunday best. The Alligator's Courtship. Bird* ot Paradise wave their won- derful silky plumes, and the humming- bird with great skill flashes his gems among the flowers, making a perfect color scheme. Other birds-, less fortunate in the matter ot color, find the power of song a great factor in gaining favor; so these songsters chant their sweetest melodies or chirrup and whistle as best they can. Even the lumbering alligator knows how to advertise, and in searching tor a bride does his best to stage a fight so that the lady of his choice may see him come tor.th the victor! The same applies to lions and tigers and even the monkey,' so If you see any of those fellows vainly strutting about at the Zoo, don't laugh. They know what they are doing! At this stage my mother came to me, and as she is a firm believer in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, she started me on this medicine. I can only say that they did wonders for me. I began- to get new health and strength after I had taken a few boxes, and day by day this improvement continued until I was again well and able to do all my housework, and I have not had a sick day since.

Twenty-five years ago, Qreen Tea was more popular than Black, but due to the heavy Importation of poor quality Japarrand China Oreen Teas, the demand fell off. Ceylon and India started producing Qreen Tea on a large scale only in recent years. They were of such fine quality and delicious flavor that Green Tea drinkers Im- mediately recognized their superiority and demanded them In ever increasing quantities. Salada Tea Company is practically the sole Importer of Cey- lon and India Green Teas in Canada. Rest To get the most out of a vacation one should have a rest as well as a change ot scene and recreation. Ex- cessive physical fatigue whether from work or play is dangerous. Fatigue means a tired heart and weakened di- gestivo organs, and it lowers resist- ance to infection ot any sort. Many a-vacatloB has been 6i>oned by unusual fatigu-e, with over eating, and many a vacationist returns home suffering from an Infection which would never have occurred had his natural powers of resistance not been lowered by gen- eral bodily fatigue. Begin new forms of work or play moderately. Moderation In physical exertion for the first few days of a vacation will make a great difference In the actual results of the vacation. It win also make a vacation far more beneficial in Its results if the daily programma be aTranged so as to pro- vide a period of complete relaxation and rest. It not a nap, after the noon- day meal or before tho evening meal. Seeing Eyes. The automobile plowed through the deep sand of a plney woods road. There was not a house In sight, not a sound except the Impatient and dis- gusted exclamations of the pair in the car, a young couple from the city. "Miles and miles and not even a cabin! I don't wonder nobody Uvea In such a forsaken country," grumbled the young man at the wheel, and his wife emphatically declared that she didn't blame folks tor not living where there was nothing except pines and sand. Just then the breeze that stirred the boughs bore to their ears a song. Jubi- lant and glad: "I've reached the land of corn and wine. With all its treasures surely mine; I've reached that beauteous shining shore â€" My heaven, my home, forever more!" The car slowed down and, drawing to one side, stopped to allo-w a small covered cart to come slowly up over the narrow road. An old woman in a purple calico dress, with a big black sunbonnet falling back on her neck, sat in a chair and drove the pony. "In trouble?" inquired the old wo- man sympathetically. "The sand's so deep I reckon you're stuck. I'll drive on and send a neighbor to pull you out." "No, not stuck. Just waiting to ask if you could show us some nearer way out to the main road," said the you;ig man. "Now ain't that a nice way to travel, though!" exclaimed the woman, "gild- in' along smooth as grease and seein' everything!" "But this country" â€" began the young woman impetuously, "this country is soâ€" so â€" " "Ain't it?" replied the stranger, beaming upon them. "For them with seein' eyes there's no prettier country to be found! This time of yer.r es- pecially when the woods are fair groanln' under the bounty of the Lord. I been down the road a piece, spendln' Vagabondia. O I am done with golden shoes. With satin, silk and shining gear. What is this tinsel show to lose An' I take a road tar, far from here! ' !
