ored water. y
The State of Nevada is named
from the Sierra Nevada Mountains,
which in turn are said to have been
| named from the Sierra Nevadas of
Grenanda.
Nebraska takes its name from the
Nebraska River. The name is of
Indian origin, meaning "shallow
river. -
Kansas is also named from its
principal river. A tribe of Indians,
formerly in that locality, were known
as the konsos or Kows, and the
state is probably named from them.
The origin of the name of the
Peninsula State of Florida is told by
historians as follows: eIn 1912
Ponce de Leon sailed from France
to the west in search of the fountain
of youth. He first saw land on
Easter day, and on account of the
richness and quantity of flowers
found on the new possessions, he
called ii Florida.
Alabama is named from an ancient
Indian tribe of the Mississippi Val
ley. The name itself signifies "here
we rest.
Ohio takes its name from the river
on the southern boundary. The
word is from the Wyandotte Indian
dialect, "o-he-zah," and means
something great
Iowa is named from the river of
that name, the river from the Ioway
Indians.
Missouri was also named from a
river. The word is from the Indian
Min-he-sho-shay, signifying "mud-
dy waters
The name of Wisconsin is of
French-Indian origin. 1t was former
ly spelled "Ouis-con-sin," meaning
westward flowing"
Illinois is derived from the Dele
ware Indian word, "Illin," or
"Leni, meaning "real men," and
the soft French termination "ois. I"
i The name Michigan comes from
Indian words of Algonquin and
Chippewa origin, "Mitcha,' great,
and "gan' lake.
| Louisiana was named in honor of
Louis XIV, of France, and was
formerly applied to the French pos
sessions of the Mississippi Valley.
/ The word Arkansas is of Indian
stock. A tribe of Indians, who re-
belled and separated from the Kan
sas nation, were celebrated for the
fine quality of their bows From
this they were called Arc or Bow
Indians and afterwards Arkansas. !"

That depends, madam, upon how

It builds up and invigorates the

made especially for woman's needs.
In the cure Of all .female COM

IF there is one thing more than
another Mexico needs and can af-
ford to have it is a sewerage. We
understand by investigation that
for about So, 500 Mexico could have
main sewer plenty large enough
to accommodate the residents OF
Mexico for years to come. Sewerage
in Mexico is not luxury but ne
cessity. Not only the convenience
but the poor health of our people
demands sewerage and we think the
time has come wien our tax payers
and citizens with one accord favor
this move. With one main sewer
through the heart of the city the rest
would be easy. District sewers could
be built to tap the main sewer and
Mexico would soon have a good sys-
tenn at a slight cost.
