The word Chickamauga means
dull, sluggish stream" and it is
from the waters of the creek that
the Indians. who were among the
most daring and warlike of all the
tribes in east Tennessee, got their
names, says the Chattanooga Times.
The original Interpretation of Chat
tanooga has long been lost. The gen
eral acceptation of the meaning of
the word is Hawks Nest" said to
have been suggested by the valley
Nesting in the shadow of the ridges
and mountain. Others say that the
word is derived from the name Clan
owah, given by the Cherokees to
small, warlike hawks that made their
nests in the cliffs of Lookout noun

"GET HEALTHY-QUICK" CURES.
Americans Make Their Annual Pill
SrimaSes to European
Santa RUINS.

And now the steamers are BEARING
away hundreds of Americans to the
"get-healthy-quick" concerns of Eu-
rope, says Golfers Weekly. Some will
go on starving diets, others on stuffing
diets; some will drink vast quantities
of water, others vast quantities of
milk; some will take the "perfect-rest"
cures, others the incessant-exercise"
cures. And all will be vastly improved
in appearance and will leave their re-
spective 'get-healthy-quick" concerns
without grudging thought about the
money they have been relieved of by
the hordes of bandits that run cures"
The time is not yet, but neither is it
far distant, when cynicism will get

ST. BERNARD DOGS.
Noble Breed That Furnishes Won
derfuI Instances of Intelligence
and Bravery.

A New England mill owner allowed
his pet St. Bernard TO sleep in the Of
fee, quite near his house, says a writer
in Country Life III America. As he I'M
locked the door one morning he heard
a low growl, and there stood the dog
over the PROSTATE body of man. As
the mill owner approached the man
tried to arise, but another warning
growl made him drop back, ejaculat-
ing: For Gods sake, call off your dog!
He's been standing over me four
hours" Burglar tools lay beside him.
He was unframed and so was the safe.
A lady who was going on a long
journey one summer left her Bremen"
in the care of livery stable keeper,
friend who knew and loved the dog.
Bremen was very quiet and unob-
trusive fellow, careful to keep out of
the way, yet always near at hand. So
quiet was he that strangers thought
him cowardly, and many times he was

lies-ius to see what he would 90.
Bremen took all their rough jokes in
good part until one day after his toes
had been trodden on repeatedly by his
chief tormentor. Finding it appar-
emily impossible to provoke the dog,
the bully turned upon the stable keep
er and began wrestling with him. Up
'prang Bremen like tiger, and, push
ing his great body between the men, he
forced them apart. Then, erect upon
his hind legs he put his forepaws upon
his enemy's shoulders and uttered just
one fierce growl. That was enough.
His toes never suffered again.
A three-months-old pup, by careful
| observation, learned the connection be-
tween the pump handle and his supply
of fresh water. When the pan was
empty and he felt thirsty he would
seize the handle and shake it repeat
| eddy as well as he could. If this pro-
ceeding failed to attract the attention
of any one he would take the pan in his
mouth and bang it violently against
the pump. As he grew older he helped

The facility with which an automo-

fact that its motorSiriven axle is in

permits the two wheels, each of which

attainment, that he who would succeed must use
to the best advantage that particular talent with
which he is most generously endowed. With
this end in view he must plod steadfastly for

others pause, or slip or fall out. Following
this programme he shall one day straddle the
very pinnacle of success.
