Do you have a feeling of undue fullness in the stomach, belchings, or sour or bitter risingsl These are but few ot the symptoms of the diseased stomach.

 The New Orleans railroads arc look ing forward, even at this early day. to the largest Carnival ever held in New Orleans, and point to the fact that in- quries from various parts of the country coming in asking for rates, descriptive and illustrated. Carnival matter and such general information as to hotels. boarding houses and the like. lall of which goes to show that the New Orleans roads are, likely to haul more passengers than at any time in previous years.

WHY BOSTON 10 so CALLED.
Interesting History Concerning ths
origin OF the Name.

The majority of people know that
Boston was named for the little English
seaport town directly north of London
at the mouth of 1.-THE WASH" But how
many know how this little town came
to have this name we all love so we'll?
Many. many years ago, only 655
years after Christ. there was a very
earnest English Monk named Botolph.
He was given the choice of q location
for a monastery, and to the surprise o.
every one chose wild, unsettled region
near the sea, then called 1canoe. Hero
monastery was built, and here tho
good st. Botolph lived all his life. Thu
sailors and seafaring men knew Of this
ldnd-hearted monk, and oftentimes
had reason to appreciate his kindly aid,
for to every one in distress he was 40 =
father. Thus, when he passed away
the sailors made him their patron saint.
His name, "Botolph." meaning. boat
help" lent suparstitious charm to hiy
memory, and ere long seamen or vesl
sells in distress were supposed to be un-
der his care.
A hundred years after the monastery
was destroyed by an invasion of the
Danes, but when little village took it.
place st. Botolph was not forgotten and
the village by the sea was given hi,
name.
With centuries of use the name s..
Botoph took many changes. thus: Bo-
eolphtown. Botolsson, Bostonton, Bos.
ton.
In 1909, when /. was called Boston, Z
very beautiful church was built there.
and called "st. Botolph's church" There
are now in England fifty churches dedi.
Gated to st. Botolph.
John Cotton became the pastor of the
Boston church. After a three years
pastorate John Cotton, with others, be.
came Nonconformist, or Puritan, and
left England to join their friends, john
Winthrop and others. in their settle.
anent dcfoss tne Sea. Ills setlleuenS
was named Boston, in loving remem.
brancc of their home in England, and
was destined to be one of the most beau.
tfful cities in the United States.
So it is through the single-hearted
piety and kindness of heart Of tia
lonely English monk of Icanoe that We
have every reason to be Justly proud
