The variations Of this name are
Traciv Tracie, Tracye, Tresse and
-Traisy, with "de" before the name IN
all early records.
Tracy and Tracey are perhaps the
only forms at the present day.
With Wooden the first ancestor Of

ties, the Traceys have much to live
up to-. especially when we find such
family names all along the line as

According to other authorities, Al

for the Tracy, who are a famous Nor

They went over to England with the

T0SERVE TOMATOES
VARIETY OF COMBINATIONS FOR
HEALTHFuL VEGETABLE.
Can Be Served Three Times = Day for
Week and Never Twice Alike
Cancer Theory Ex-
fi ploded.

The housekeeper whose family
scorns tomatoes Is to be pitied. They
can be used three times q day. every
day for a week and never need they
be served twice alike.
Some time ago there were rumors
that the tomato was bad for canoerous
troubles, also must be dreaded by
rheumatics. This theory Is exploded
and the tomato is considered health
full even in quantities.
Tomatoes are sometimes disliked
because they are served monotonouS-
ly. Etewed, baked or fried are the
three variations.
Why not, instead Of ordinary baked
tomatoes, stun them with the highly
seasoned remnant Of yesterdays meat
or chicken put through q grinder and
mixed with q cream dressing2
Another good atu6ang Is cold maca-
roni, from which the sauce has been
washed OF, mixed with chopped green
peppers. When the breadcrumb STUFF

Another form Of salad IL to cut the

chopped Brussels sprouts and olives

mayonnaise on the top. The cutting
enables the seasoning to permeate
more rapidly and the salad can bt

The st. Johns are Of Norman
French origin, and took their name
from a parish called st. John, near
Rouen. William st. John was one Of
the ConQueror's train. "Grand Mas
ter of Artillery and Supervisor Of the
Wagons and Carriages" he is called.
His sons and grandsons distinguished
themselves in the wars Of William Ru-
fus. and Henry !.
A daughter of the house Of st. John
married Adam de Port, the great feu-
-dal baron Of Basing, near Southamp-
ton; and, as her son inherited the pos
ssessions of both families, and as
stunned the maternal name, the st.
Johns claim descent equally from Nor
,man-French and AngloSaxon.

of the present day have something to

and the nations of the earth become

Christ.
The inspiration Of victorious Chris
tianitv lies not in the hope OF rescuing
ones self and others from an impend-

votion Of ones self to the task OF help
ing to create for today and for the
future an order of things in which
Gods will shall be supreme and mu-
tual love shall govern in. all human

"Instead of waiting for the day OF
the Lord as an event which is to come

deayor in the thought that working
with God in an age-long process, they

tribution, be it ever so small, toward
the realization Of that ultimate ideal to-
ward which God is continually guiding

WOMAN KILLS HER HUSBAND.

Mrs. Annie Elizabeth Hudson, wife
of Tobias Hudson, a locksmith, for
merly of Cambridge, Md, and Laurel
Del. but for the past three months a
resident OF Salisbury, shot and almost
instantly killed her husband in the Of
fees OF States Attorney Joseph l..
Bailey, at Salisbury yesterday, where
the pair had met to effect a reconcilia-
ton.
The story leading up to the crime
dates back II years, during which, ac-
cording to the statement OF Mrs. Hud-
son. she has lived and suffered with
this man as her husband, but, so far as
Salisbury is concerned, it dates back to
Wednesday last, when Mrs. Hudson
appeared upon the scene and swore out
a warrant before Justice Trader against
Hudson for non-support and desertion.
He was held under $3.50 bail for his ap-
pearance before the justice on or before
September 81, if, in the meantime, he
had not taken up his duties as husband
and supported his wife.
He paid the fine in cash. 1t was Ge-
lieved that this was the end OF the nat
ter, as Hudson had agreed to return to
his former home in Cambridge as 81 on
as he had finished his business in Salis-
bury. This satisfied the wife, bul the
climax came, as it now appears II urs-
day night when she heard that he was
arranging to leave Salisbury with the
woman he has lived with in the latter
place for the past three months, the
woman that was indirectly responsible
for the murder yesterday.
Hudson had dIbeen in Salisbury for the
past three months, and had caused con-
siderable talk on account OF his con-
nection with the other woman. She
has been married three times, being
divorced from her former husbands.
She left her second husband with a
baby not over , months old to live
with Hudson, and after her husband
had secured diyorceshe married Hud-
son. She has three children by her for
mer husband.
