rheumatism is uric acid in the blood

Significance In Names.

In an Illinois town a workingman
having been informed that a sixth
baby had arrived at his home, ex-
claimed: Sufficient" and his neigh
bors, referring to his having given
that name-Sufficient- the new
arrival, credited him with originality.
The incident resembles a case nearer
home, adds the New York Tribune.
A New York family was blessed with
nine daughters, when the stork
brought a tenth one. 1t was in the
days when the slang term for an oft
told story was a Chestnut" and as
the baby certainly came under that
head she received the name, but for
suphony's sake the French for the
word was employed, and she was
called Marion.
