Where Worde Came From*, "Bivouac,” like "plunder," Is a word that arose In the Thirty Years’ war, al though It did not come Into English un til the beginning of the Eighteenth 'century. “Refugee" came into the language with the Huguenot refugees; "exda#’ Is apparently a Dutch word and, although borrowed eprller, came into general use when this system of (taxation was borrowed from Holland In 1848.—L. B. Smith’s "The English Language. ASTONISHES O’NEILL. The QUICK action of buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in Ad ler-i-ka, the appendicitis preventative, astonishes O’Neill people.

Monument park, near Colorado Springs, contains some queer freaks of nature. Among the most singular Is a group of light grayish-yellow sand stone pillars, twenty or more feet high, capped with thin layers of dark colored rock, which resemble the tops of giant mushrooms that have been shriveled and partially dried up. The dark-colored copping being of. a much harder rock than the pillars, lias to some extent protected the latter from disintegration. The climate of Colo rado being extremely dry. the weath ering of these rocks progresses at a much less rapid rate thait wpuld be the case were they sitnnted-Jn the re gion of heavy rainfall east of the* Mis sissippi river. This fact accounts for the great number of strange rock forms which are found In the arid re gion, the process of disintegration be ing relatively slow. In {he East, where rocks gnttier an excess of moisture and then freeze and thaw, they deteriorate much more rapidly. This Is noticeable In the' ease of several historical monuments whicl have been moved.to the United Suites from the dry desert lands of Egypt where they stobd unchanged far cen turies; but under the climatic condi tions of our Eastern states they have already shown signs of change and disintegration. ALL IN THE DAY'S “WORK" At Least This Incident Should Have Relieved the Monotony of » Physician’s Routine. In the evening office hours of a busy physician of the east part of the a four-year-old lad sat awaiting his turn to Interview the physician. The 'physician was surprised when the lad came Into the room to see that he was alone. But the lad, not In the least alarmed, walked In, told the physician his name and where he lived, and then said: “I Just came to see when you are going to bring a baby to our house.” " At the physician’s hesitancy to an swer, the youngster said: “There’s no hurry, but I wish you would bring one soon.” Laddie was not known by the physician, add was many blocks front home, so he asked Laddie wheth er he should call Ladle’s mother, so she would know where he was. The child replied : “I’d rather you wouldn’t —but If you will watch until I got across the street I can get home o’l right.” The busy physician took time to watch Laddie across the street, and as far as he could see, Laddie was trudging hopefully along, apparently undisturbed by the night—Indianapo lis News.

Meteors have always been looked on with interest by the sky watchers. They swoop down on us startlingly from some mysterious hinterland of outer space. We look with something of awe even today amT wonder about them. Are they messengers from dis tant strange worlds? Do they differ in some essential way from the substance matter of the earth? The answer is an unromantic “no,” says the New York Evening Post. Chemically, meteorites are often composed of iron, with some nickel and srauller Amounts of other elements. So far as\he chemist can determine, the iron in meteors'is just like the iron in the kitchen range or the garden hoe,, and the picket no different from that in the 5-cent piece in your pocket. It seems to be pretty definite proof that our earth is part and parcel with the rest of the universe and that all the splendid stars are now or will some time be made up of just the*kind of chemical elements we find by scratching the surface of this little earth. There seems to he no doubt that; all of the matter of the universe came out of the same vast melting pot. Our sun differs from giant Betel^uese, at the other end of the heavens, only in size and hotness. The warmth and the water and light on our earth, are prob ably very much like those on, thou sands of planets swinging in the vast spaces of the Milky Way and, given these shine conditions, it is more than likely that life is there also, and-in telligence and'thinking, and wondering about us as we think and wonder about them. HAVE “-MUMMY” OF DINOSAUR Ice Fields of Siberia Recently Made a Valuable Contribution to Sci entific Annals; The vast Ice fields of Siberia have In many instances acted as a nitnral cold storage plant for the preservation of the flesh of the mammoth, this preliis torlc cousin of the elephant having been dug out of his chilly grave intact on numerous occasions. It lias always been supposed, however, that this was the only Instance in which anything more than the bare bones of the fauna of past geological epochs had come down to us. Doubtless the mammoth will continue to stand unique in this respect; but lie is no longer unap proachtd. There inis recently been put on exhibition in#the Senikeaberg museum, Frmikfortmm-Main, a dino saur skeleton wfiicl^carries with it a considerable portion of the skin of the animul, in mummified form. In par ticular the epidermis over the animal's back Is prestiit practically intact. The skeleton lias been mounted in flying position, and makes altogether an im pressive exhibit. Why “Pop"? Why do we say “pop the question” when we refer to a marriage proposul. “Pop,” which comes down to us from the Middle ages, lias always meant suddenness, and at one period tte “popper” was the footpad who leapt at his victim from behind a hedge, robbed him,- and as suddenly disap peared again. Even in Its modern sense, as applied to the pep of a cork, we have the same root meaning to the word. In every sense, then, to "pop the question” is applicable to n proposal which is supposed to be caused by the sudden explosion of pent-up emotions. The swain, after taking perhaps weeks to make up his mind, had suddenly screwed up his pluck and asked the question upon which his happiness depended. - Portraits in Glass. Stained glass portraits are coming in now. The advantages of the stained glass portrait over pnlnt and canvas are obvious. Glass perishes very, very Slowly. Canvas has, comparatively, a short life; whilst oil colors, as we know from Turner’s fast-fading mas terpieces, have but a short life. In the houses of the future the stained glass portrait will probably be quite common. The features of lovely wom en will sparkle with the shafts of suf fused sunlight; famous men will look down, lifelike and glowing. This re vival should give a new impetus to an art almost lost; an art which rivals sculpture for sheer living beauty. THOROUGH WORK. How An O’Neill Citizen Found Free dom From Kidney Troubles. If you suffer from backache— From urinary disorders— Any curable disease of the kidneys, Use a tested kidney remedy. Doan’s Kidney Pills have been tets ed by thousands. O’Neill people testify. Ask your neighbor. Can you ask more convincing prooi of merit? V % R. H. Mills, carpenter, O’Neill, says: “I gave a statement some time ago telling of my; experience with Doan’s Kidney Pills 'iand since recommending them I have had no further need of a remedy. I still have a word of praise for Doan’s, however, because of the very satisfactory relief they gave me from backache and lameness in my back that I had when my . kidneys were in a disordered condition." ' ^ FOUR YEARS LATER, Mr. Mills said: “It has been ten years since I had need of a kidney remedy and I Have been strong and heglthy ever since Doan’s eured me.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Mills had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y". - PLEASANT VALLEY. Arnold Stewart spent Sunday at the S. W.
