'^emp" wafi a medleTal Engllah word for "soldier." "Walter le Kemp" wac ilm^r Walter the aol<U«r," and ' --•^taBo KonrpsOTi"* waa "'fiamoTho »ol- ; flier's aon." The form Camp le in. moet Inatascee due simpljr to a natural ] change In pronunciation occurring re- , gularly in many English words in cef- 1 tain parts of that country and reflect-! ed in the changed spelling. [ We haTe iDfitances of similar ' changes In the word "Derby." On thlt continent we pronounce it as spelled. ! , In England they call It "Darby." I As often aa not the reverse change In pronunciation has taken place in the course of centurie<3. Thus the name Df that famous street in London. Pall Mall, Is pronounced "pell mell." | There is no telling how often since ' the word "kemp" was in common use. ' Families bearing It as a surname have changed the pronunciation back and ' forth between "kemp" and "camp" i through succeeding generations. But ! the changes in spelling have been j more rare, as they ahways are. i DYER. Variationâ€" Llater. Racial Origin â€" English. Source â€" Att occupation. The Samllr name of Dyer la guita rveognlsable hj the modam Eocllsh- •paftker aa having developed from a word denoting an oc«np«tion. That li becanae In this caa* b«th the wont de- noting the ocoapatfoa and. the name have changed similarly from the orig- inal form, and h^ve not, aa Is many caaea, drifted apart. Nevertbeleie the original word would be unrecognizable to the average person to-day. In the Middle Ages it waa spelled "D«»here" or "Dlghatere." But if you will soften tli«t pronunciation of the "gh" to a barely audible buttural, aa it was pronounced then, you'll find It very easy to aiip It a bit further to a "y" sound. And that U precisely tha manner in whioh common apeech, over the period of *everal centuries which have elapsed since the formation of family namea began, haa softened it into "Dyer," together with the broad- ening of the short "1" or ln<Ibfln!te "e" into the modem English long "1." "Lit" was another old English word which meant "dye." In a medieval manuscript there occurs the following passage: "We use no clathls that are llttede of dyveree coloures" (We use no clothes that are dyed in diverse colors). The "lltater" or the "lister" was simply a dyer. Originally either of these words were used, but in the course of time the pronunciation of the latter has prevailed as coming; moi-e smoothly from the tongue. It has been preserved as a family name, but as an ordinary word It has passed out of use. Mother* Who Mmile Hiatory.

Her daughter tnarrled Thomas Fleet, a famous American printer, and thay had a little son.

SAVEDBABTS LIFE If you feel run down, it means that your blood la thin and watery, that your TlUllty la low. Your feet are easily chilled. You do not sleep well and you are tired when you rise In the morning. You find no pleaiiura in your meals and are liatleas and d'eplri'ed at your work. You hare no energy to enjoy yourself. I Thousands of men are run down by a doc does aniietlM of work. Thousands of wo- men are broken down by their housie- hold tot:, with UreJ '.imbs and acht3g backs; thousands of girls are pale, Iiet!(?sa and without attraction. It all meand the same thingâ€" thin and watery blood, vitality run down, snae- mla. peer appetite, palpitating heart, a small por- j ghort breath. Do not jubmlt to this. Get new blood and with it new vitality. There Is no dlflicuity In doing this. Dr Wil- liams' Pink Pills build up and enrich the blood, which brings with it new health and vitality. The man. woman or girl who takes Dr. WllliauLs' Pink Pills U never run down. Their friends notice how energetic they are. what a fine appetite they have, and how much they enjoy life. You can get theae piils through any dealer In medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Wiiiiams' Medicine Co.. Brookville, Out. i), Make the Fair-Ground Work All the Year. The average country fair-ground is a falr-grcund and nothing else, serv- ing the public only during fair week. The rest of the year It is wholly idle and deserted and sometimes even un- tlghtly. Yet the fair-ground is often a pretty natural park with trees and la generally very accessible to both town and country i>eople. If natural plonlcing and i>lay places are hard to find, aa often is the ease In prairie ooontry, why sot then make a recrea- tion oentre of the fair-ground? Thia was the idea that came to the Fair. Association of a county In Iowa. The grounds are within the city limits of West Union and on the main-tra- veled road from oountry to town. There is a natural grove of oaks on the area and a bright creek meanders through it. No other body of water Is near. The Pair.Aasociatlon laid the mat- ter of making a playground of the fair pork before the public and found prompt willingness to co-operate, and open pooketbooks offered to carry out the plan. Playground equipment was bought and set up. Picnickers were invited to make free use of the grounds. Then lost summer a swim- ming pool waa added. It waa ocoom- plished in the the simplest of ways. The creek runs along one aide of the (Oii^creunda and makes a bend down the other side. Water was taken from the creek and carried through tiling to the swimming pool. From the lower and of the artificial pond the water flowed out into other tiling and back Into the creek. This gave running water, making the bathing place pure and sanitary. The pool is 40 z ISO feet, with sloping bottom, and cost about 12,600. Through the summer the poo! was the most popular place in town, and summer evenings the fair-ground was the gathering place of town and coun- try folks. The grass haa-been kept mowed and the place given generally the same care as a regular park. â€" F. L. C. j - â€" . A- Mrs. Alfred Tranchemontagne, St. Michel des Salutes, Que., writes: â€" "Baby's Own Tablets are aa excellent medicine. They saved my baby's life and I can highly recommend them :c all mothers." Mrs. Tranchemon- tagne's experience is that of thousands of other mothers who have tested the vorth of Baby's Own Tablets. The Tablets are a sure and safe medicine for little ones and never fail to regu- late the bowels and stomach, thus re- lieving all the minor Ills from which children suffer.

When Smith's Mind Worked. Smith was a freshman, older than most of his claas. Ha waai tall. lanky and slow. His mind. Ilka his body, worked slowly, and the nervous pro- feeeor in mathematics, after a long and careful explanation, was wont to say: "Well, Smith, if you wl-H go over that explanation carefully and medi- tate on it, I think you will undsrstand. Meditate. Smith, meditate." So Smith became "Meditate" Smith to his fellow students. One evening a party of students gathered in the r':;om of one of their number, and Smith was one of them. The meeting wa« for fun and perhaps mischief, and such a meeting waa an infringement of rules. When the jollity was at Its height a warning came that the profeaeor was coming to investigate.

But," she added brightly, "now that the foliage Is gone I find that I can see a great deal farther and live in a much larger work! than I could before. "No; don't stop mo, doctor," she added hurriedly as she saw him about to apeak. "1 â€" Iâ€" must llaish.
