The given name is Gerald, which, to English eyes and ear.s seems a long way from Roddy. The key to the change however, is family names, which have been de- rived from names of places. In this instance the place name is of Cornish- British origin, forming a part of the new scanty remains of an all but ex- tinct branch of the Celtic language, aj branch more allied to the Welsh and i FOR MOTHERS OF YONNG CHILDREN Experiments With Noncaririer Waves Prove Many Advant- ages of Thu System.

The substitution of the "u" for the "I" was never carried to the same ex- tent by the Normans who went to Eng- land as it waa in the speech of the French, becaii^se the process was in- terrupted by the reviving dominance of the Saxon tongue in iOnglaud.

Dairy cows and men are very much filike in one respectâ€" neither has any- thing to say as to their parentage. They sre very different in another respectâ€" man is master, the cow a ser- vant. Such being the case, are men giving the dairy cows a chance to pay their way and prove their worth? What is a reasonable chance for man to give a dairy cow? First â€" Since men largely control the matings ot cattle, we are in !luty bound in the first place to mate ani- mals of known production, good type and plenty ot vigor with one another, if the offspring is to be expected to produce milk at a profit Secona â€" Granting that the first necessity has been carried out and the young animal has been properly fed to the production age, we must feed that animal in such a way as to give her a chance to produce milk at a j profit. How can this be done? Brief- ly this: Every animal requires a cer- tain amount of food to maintain body heat, lite, and to repair the worn out parts of the body. To feed th's amount pt food is not giving the cow a chance to produce at a profit. We must feed In addition to this amount of food, au amount out of which we may right- tuUy ask the cow to prove what she can do. This food must be suited to the demand expected of her, and it Is | pHcatlon this part of the dally ration which will not only pay for itself, but will pay for the food consumed in maintaining life Itself, the body heat and the repair of worn out parts. Just bo a- much ad- ditional food over and above the main- tenance ration can be fed will depend not only on the constitution ot the cow. but upon her inherited ability to convert this food to milk. Here is where good breeding shows Its value. U ' quite possible for two farmers hxviiig equal quantities and qualities of-feed to feed this to cattle of equally good type and breeding, and yet one maintaining life. These cows, it the proper kind, will produce a profit. Thirdâ€" Men must' use all the Intel- ligence at their disposal to see that the milk produced Is marketed to the best advantage and in the best pos- sible condition.

What Do the Microbes Do? It is easy to .isk this reasonable question, but it takes a lot of answer- ing. \ tew microbes find entrance In- to the body and iii a few hours. It may be, the man is dead. The effect seems somehow out ot proportion to the cause. "Behold how great a lire a little spark kiudleth.' Within the food- canal or in the blood, or in the wind- pipe and lungs, the invaders multiply with extreme rapidity. A bacillus less than one five-thou- sandth part of an Inch in length mult' plies under normal conditions at » rate that would cause the offspring ot a single individual to fill the ocean tu the depth of a mile in five days. Dr Macfie calculates that the chol- era bacillus can duplicate every twen- ty minutes, aud might thus in one day have a progeny of five with twenty- seven noughts after it. and weighing over 7000 tons. But before this hap- pens the patient is dead. It is not, however, by sheer m\iUi- ihat microbes kill. nor. in most cases, by making holes in tissues, blocking passages or devouring blood- corpuscles. These things may happen, but the inaiu answer to our question, as tar as bacteria secrete albuminoid poisons or toxins which are fatal to various kinds of living cells within the body. Jb other cases the toxins are only set tree by the destruction and solution ot bacteria which is continually taking place. All that we can say in a tew words Is that the living mattei" of the body vail, neither railway, highway, nor even money is known. The pelt has become the unit of value.

In the ! fur districts of Siberia, sable forms 'the unit ot value and the currency; in certain remote hunting districts of North America and in Alaska the beav- er pelt is the most important means ot exchange and the best measure ot value.

I was worlting at the factory for three years and became so run-down that I tised to take weak spells and would be at home at least one day eacli week. I was treated by the doctors for anemia, but it didn't seem to do me any good. I was told to take a rest, but was imable to, and kept on getting worse. I was troubled mostly with my periods. I would sometimes pass three months, and when it came it would last arotmd two weeks, and I would have such painsat times in my right side that I coula hardly walk. I am only 19 years of age and weigh 118 pounds now, and before tak- ing the Vegetable Compound I was only 10s poimds. I was sickly for two years and some of mv friends told me about Lydia E.
