here the eggs are laid, and the young

time is spent inlan nd, living at the roots
of trees where they have burrOwed
deep hollows which they carpet lux
uriously with tibers stripped from CO.

They come out of these homes at
night TO climb the palm trees, for al
though it seems funny to us, their
climbing is quite serious business to
them, since it is in this way that they
secure the cocoanuts of which they are
so fond and on which they live princi
pally.

ORIGIN Of the Dictionary.

The average person seems somehow
to think of dictionaries as the inven-
ton Of DR.. Johnson, and altogether
modern product. DR.. Murray correct
ed that idea. They were not the work
of one or several men, he told his
audience, but a growth developed
through the ages. They began with
the glosses-that is, the explanations
in easy Latin or English-or hard
Latin words, written by the monks
between the lines of the manuscripts.
The CLOSES grew into traslations, and
collections of CLOSES by this monk or
that from all the sources available to
him made glossaries or dictionaries.
Little by little English supplanted the
easy Latin explanations, and the
words were arranged In a rudiamsn-
tary alphabetical order, thus forming,
so long ago as 1000 A. D., Latin-Eng-
llsh dictionaries. The uneducated
Normans overthrow English learning;
and 1t was not till the fifteenth CEN
fury that the revival came.

ExPERIM ENTS
Learn Things Of Value.

Where one has never made the ex-
pertinent of leaving OF coffee and
drinking Postum it is still easy to
learn all about it by reading the ex-
periences of others.
Drinking Postum is a pleasant
way to get back to health. A man OF
Lancaster, Pa, says: my wife was
a victim of nervousness and weak
stomach and loss Of APPETITE for years
and was a physical wreck; although
we resorted to numerous methods Of
Keller one Of which was a change
from coffee to tea, it was all to no
purpose.
1--WE knew coffee was causing the
trouble but could not find anything to
take its place and cure the diseases
until we tried Postum Food Cofee.
In two weeks time after we quit cor-
fee and used Postum almost all OF her
troubles had disappeared as II by
magic. 1t was truly wonderful. Her
nervousness was all gone, stomach
trouble relieved, appetite improved
and above all nights rest was COM
plete and refreshing.
This sounds like an exaggeraton,
as 1t all happened so quickly, but we
are prepared to prove it. Each day
there is improvement for the better
for the Postum is undoubtedly
strengthening her and giving her rich
red blood and renewed life and vital

is due to Postum and to drinking Pos

Another section of this chain Is the

adopted for any of the government de-

in all heraldic details, and at the same
time having full significance in the
