Racial Origin â€" Irish. [ Source â€" A given nam*. It tooka like an index to a whole encyclopedia cf family D&me3; but It's jast one surname, in iu many variations. Thep* are few Irteh clan names wtUch have given rile to so maay variatlone of spelling, and even pronunciation, when translated into English, as tlmt of "O'Cathain.' Of all the Anglicized fornw, prob- ably the on« that strikes the closest to the Gaelic pronunciation of "O'Ca- thain " i» O' Cahaine, or O Cahane. But the tendency of the Englist- trained tongue and throat is to slur, and since it la the second syllable of "Cathain" that id accente*!. most of ^ the Anglicized versions simply slur out the fir5< vowel sound and the aspi- rate, and make one syllable of it. Whether spelled with a "C" or a "K," or an "a" or an "ai," the usual pro- nunciation is "cane" In English, though that of "keen" ie not unusual; in which case, the spelling "ea" l£ used. As a matter of fact, however, this change of "caue" to "keen" is a development in English of compara- ' tlvely modern times, and even when the "ea" spelling is used it wa,s prob- ably first pronounced In English as "cane." The cUin is an offshoot, an ancient one, of the O'Neills of Tyrone, founded by a chieftain named "Cathan" (mean- ing "warrior") in the Twelfth Century. • 1 STEWART i Variations â€" Stuart, Steward, Steward-! â- on, Stewartson. Racial Origin â€" Norman-French. Source â€" APtttle of office. It is one of the tricks of hiatory that this family name, which is dietinct>y of Norman-French origin, should have become chiefly repres»?ntative of Scota, ', and should have become the name of that Scottish clan whose Uirilory i*; vir- â-  tually the history of Scotland from the j twelfth century on, the clan which has furnished so many of the kl.igs of both Scotland and England. There ai-e, of course, many Instances of the title of "steward." an important one under the Norman-French feudal S'ysfm, growini^ into a family name in England but whereas the English formed their family names inttlvidual- ly, the Scottis* and the Irish formed them on the wholesale ba.sis. an entire clan adopting a name. The Scottish Stewarts trace back to Alan, one of the flrst Norman barons of EIngL-jnd, who obtained from Wil- liam the Conqueror the barony of Os- westry, in Shropshire. One of his sons, Walter, sought his fortunes in Scotland, at the court of King David I., and about the middle of the twelfth century was made by him "Steward of the Royal Household." and given large estates. The office of "Higii Steward" was later made hereditary, and in the course of a very few genera- tions the followers who gathered about the standard of the "High Steward," after tlie Scottish custom naturally welded themselves into a clan, adopt- ing the name of Stewart. It was in 1370 that tlie ,rst Stewart to become King succeeded his uncle. David II., and was crowned as Robert II. FREE ALADDIN LAMPS rHii^o Bums 94^ air. t% cob! oil Equals gas or electricity.

I The most a rheumatic suSferer can ! j hope for in rubbing something on the j tender, aching point is a little relief, j No lotion or linanient ever did or ever can do more than this. The rhetimatic poisoa Is rooted in the blood. To get rid of it you must treat it through the blood. Any doctor will tell you that this is true. It" ycu want something that will go right* to the root of the trouble In the blood, lake Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The whole mission of this mediclue is to purify and enrich the blood, and when they do this all blood troubles, mciudiug rheumatism, dis- appear. Among those who hav,e proved the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Piils is Irs. .\unie Wright. Woolchester, Alta., •kV-iKj.

The trou- ' ble seemed to a£fect my whole system ; and I was badly rundown and suffered j from headaches as well. Finally 1 was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. ! and through these 1 found complete relief and to-day 1 feel like a new person. 1 can therefore strongly re- commend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to anyone suffering as I did from this trouble." You can get these pills 'rem any medicine dealer, or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co.. Brockville. On;. Why not let the children earn money? One ot the first games tliey begin to play is store and shows, using ptna, candies and make-believe money A^ inediums of exchange. With this tendency so pronounced, it la simple, if one uses tajcx, to teach the child to do something well enough to • earn a reward. Since money ia in the world to stay, if we can lead the youngBiers to regard It sanely aa a means to an end. and teach Its proper use, we have helped them to overcome one of the biggest stumbling blocks of their fu- ture. Uhen a child earns by his own labor the wherewithal to purchase little gifts for friends and relatives, no amount of money given him to spend can produce the same feeling of satis- faction and self-reapect as do hie own earnings. To teaoh him that money does not grow on bushes, and to de- velop in him the feeling of ind'epend- ence and self-reiiaace is to give him invaJuable equipment for life. There are numerous small taste, ac- cording to the environment, that the parents can devise for children to earn money that wiH be very helpful. It is a mistake <o make the child feel hie should not peddle his work. Brcad- mlnded folks will respect a child's efr forts along this line. The establish- ment ot a regular trade, the keeping of accounts and working tj produce a fair profit will teach the value of money In an impressive way. Of courses, this money earning must not be permitted to interfere with the child's playtime- or assume too im- portant a place in the child's daily schedule: neither should It be allowed to deteriorate into the bribing habit. He should be brought to realize that in no way are his mone.v-making ideas connected with the numerous services he can do for mother. Do not permit the "How much will you give me?" to follow your request for heip. We have all visited families where this bribing habit wad carried too far If this pitfall can be avoideid. thei«e is nothing more salutory for the child than the satisfaction and self-respect coming through working for himself. It's an overconiie aooth fer a(» aa' youth. And K br'M)ks wi' nae dentsU, That the dearest tMead* are the auld^ est friends. And the youn« are Juat oa trtAL There's a rival banld wT yoiinc an' auld, And it's him that has bereft me; Pot tile surest friends are the aaMest friends And the maist o' mine bae left me. There are kind hearts still, for friends to fill Atkd fools to take and break them: Birt the nearest friends axe the auldeet friends And the grave's the place to seek them. â€" R. L. Stevenson.
