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.

SOME QUEER NATURE FREAKS
Monument Park, Near Colorado
Springs, Containn Sandstone Pil
lars Like Giant Mushrooms.
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

OUT OF THE MELTING POT
Heaven and Earth Both Constructed
Out of the Same Elements,
. .Says Science.
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.,
