The origin of this name as a family name Is easily understood when a glanoe through the gazette shows a I>Jaceof this name on the Elver Tweed, in Scotland. But how did the place get its nemo? There Is an explanation advanced that the family name is of Gaelic origin, and that tbe place took its name froni the perooinal name. In this explanation the source Is given as the Gaelic "mac- aual" or "little son." But logical thought does not tnollne to belief in this source. Actual historical record, in fact, flatly oontradiots It. The place got Its name in the reign of King David of Scotland In the elerenth ceotury, when a chief tsin named Macchua ob- tained grants of land from the mon- airch on the lUver Tweed.

If one's cart was broken, hla neighbor would offer the use of his own. If one was short of sacks, he had only to make known his need and his neighbor- would leiitl. One day Gabriel's wife and Ivan's daughter-in- law had words over an egg, and pre- sently aU the members of the famity were engaged In the quarrel. They abused one another and as tho feud developed, went to court and threw away more money thaji fhey could af- ford in legal expeosea. Then one 8«t ilre to the house of the other, hla own house also caught lire In the conflagra- tion a.nd half the vltlagia was burnt down. Son:e thing of what that grim storj- illufstratea Is canstantly going on In human communittea. Some disagree- ment over a paltry matter sets a whole neighborhood ablaze, burning up good feeling and IdndCiiness and forbear- ance. There is hardly a homo or a school or a college, hai'dily a playing field or a buslnesfi house or e'Ven a church, where tongu&s do not in this evil E«nse prove to be flres. Many hundreds of years ago, in Uie Cathedral city of Camterbiirj-, a great crowd watxshed a strange sight. Along the narrow s'.eets of the town came a man, bsref'Xjt and clad in a rough vTOoJilen r'jirt, u^lowly making his waj' to the Cajthedral. His head was bowe^l amd his feet were b-ioodstained, for tho stones were shar?) and cut the fteeh. That man, so humbly attired, was no other than the King of Kng- laud. There in a tiny church outside the town he had stiripped off his ordinary drees and lu peniteait garb approached the Ca-thedrsJ, where years before the Archhishop a Becket had been murder- ed, stabbed as he was coining dxnn prayeu-8. I'he King ma<i« his way to wliero Becket fell, and kissed the stone. Then he went to ttio tomb and, with groana and tears, knelt and conftstsed. He promised great gifts to the church, than ho rerooved his cloak and, kneel- ing at the tomb, he was beaten, ro- oedvlug five strokes from each bishop and thrc« stro-kea from eafh of eighty momka. That ^\â- as a king's penance for a few hasty words. He and the Archbii=hop had not been good friends. Becket had stood in the way ot has tfeelres. "Who will rid me of this man?" he hud Impatiently exclaimed, not expecting tha* any of tbe retalneii"8 who heard him wouid tblnk of turning the hasty words into bloody deeds.

Practical musiciaJis who, on aooount of their praf^csslonal Inttsrest, ought to be the prime movers in iiny movement- that gives promise of ftirthering the cau«o of music in their ooramunlty are, or should be, the iiaturni leaders 1 In BTOuainK this sentiment. The leadr I erslilp is usually fouiid to be due to tho enthusiasm of .some amateur. â€" maio or female. If this individual' Is a public-spirited' citizen, he may, on account of his or her social influence, be better fitted for tho position of leader in a new moveinient. But In musical movements the practical musician of any local Sitandlng should give a helping band In promotig the cause. And this la rarely th« case, especially in emoJ'er cities. The genertil type of practical musi- cian has the KeJf-preser\'ing Instinct and conviction of the lahorei-, not the artist. His bread and butter seems en- dangered if ho should connect himself j with soinelliing ot a public naJure out- side his immediate bread-earning ooeti- Jpation. The leadership in any move- j ment demands strong oonvitstions, I courage. Initiative, policy and, above j all, a judicious temperament. These j quolllication.s are i-arely united In an I Individual, and hence the more advlst I able method I» the bringing intt> one committee a group of peniple enthusias- tic for a new scheme for com-munlty development. flow 10 RELIEVE (MJHtOrS COUK Avoid Serimia Resolts by Using Baby's Own Tablets. | I When a child shows the first 8?'mp- toms of a ooHA, such us sneezing, red- ness ot the eyes, ologged or rocnjng ncE*, prompt mejumres foi- relief may avert serious results.

Probably the two will argue over the matter all the way to town, yet It is quite llkeiy that botih were iderht, for temperaure verlee In a siupri&ing way, even lu pSaoes oulte close together. A difference of ten, degrees has been nolfld between the toi) of a hill only 2<KI feet hllgh and tho bottom, tbe Mb- tanco betweieu he two spots bedng Just 300 yardm.
