AZ the turbulent Central Ameri-
IA can states in all things per-
w. tanning to freedom, self-govern-
ment and progress. The coun-
try was colonized at first by people
from the ancient Spanish province OF
Galicia, and the colonists have not,
as in many tropical countries, ANAL
gamated with the aborigines; they
have consequently kept to the present
time the original characteristics, as
we'll as the qualities of their race, and
the inherent grace and charm of their
ancestors. They are laborious, pro-
gressive and peace-loving, and have
record of long perio" OF absolute in
ternal tranquility.
Three-quarters of the population in
habit the so-called central plateau,
the climate of which is the most per-
feet realization of perpetual spring.
The agriculture of this region is very
highly developed, the principal prod
uct being coffee, maize, beans and po-
tatoes. The land is divided into ex-
ceedingly small holdings. Almost
every peasant is a landowner.
The Atlantic coast, warm, humid,
and rather unhealthful, but very fer
tile, produces on very large scale
bananas and cacao, the exploitation OF
which is unfortunately tied by con-
tracts with foreign companies. In the
banana plantations, covering over
hundred square miles, the laborers
are mainly West Indian negroes, the
only human beings able to stand
hard and continuous work under the
climatic conditions.
The Pacific coast does not differ
much from the interior but for its
warmer temperature and its extensive
g1ass-covered savanas, in which
stock raising is the chief industry.
Except for a small part, located in
the western province of Guancaste,
the 100000 inhabitants are crowded
into a narrow belt extending across
the country from ocean to ocean,
along the railroad which connects
Port Limon and Punta Arenas. The
remaining part of the state-that Is
to say, four-fifths of its entire surface
of about 18,400 square miles-is a will

half-civilized Indians inhabiting the
valleys of Diquis and Talmanca.

ern coast, thus getting into close
touch with European civilization. In
many respects this was source of
real benefit to the country. The Costa
Ricans became great travellers. They
sent their sons to be educated in for
eign schools and universities, and on
their return these diffused among
their fellow-citizens new ideals and
more advanced moral standards. For
eign teachers and professors were
brought and kept long enough to es-
tablish on a solid foundation an excel
lent school system, so perfect indeed
that illiterate men or women are hard
to find, while books and newspapers
are common even IN the most remote
hamlets. The scientific study of the
climate and the natural resources of
the country was carried on at the ex-
pense of the government, and the in

Bartholomew Is name, meaning
son of Tholmai, or Talmai. To an
alyZe it-bar, in Syriac, as ben in He

to furrow, or cut.

which in course of time became the
Bartholomew of today.
From the same roots we have Barte-
lot, Bartll and Bartlett.
Variations of Bartholomew are Bar

Bartelmewe.
In France the name is Bartholmee;
in Spain, Bartholomew; in Italy, Bar

who was with him on his voyage Of
discovery, was named Bartolomeo, or
Bartolome Colon, and this is town
In San Domingo, thus named for him.
William Bartholomew, born, 1902, at
Burford, England, married Anna Lord,
and they are the forebears of the line
tracing back to New England.
William came over in the Griffin"
and was first at Boston; about 1886,
he was a freeman of Ipswich, where
he had much land. He wrote his name
indifferently Bartylmi, Bartholomew
without the second "o"), or Bartholo-
NEW (the letter having an extra -four
fish was the Sunday spelling, maybe.)
1t is an ungrateful descendant who
asks for better record than William
can give. He had been here only
seevn months, when he was chosen to
represent the town of Ipswich, at Bos-
ton. He was town clerk, and it is re-
corded that he was to be ''payed for
his paynes." He took part in the trial
of Anne Hutchinson, whom he knew
when she was in London, and he was
free to acknowledge that the views
she entertained were, to say the least,
peculiar, although he was inclined to
Judge her not too harshly. He died
1851, and the inventory of his prop
erty shows that among other articles,
he had blew rugg, an olde carpet
and two earthen jugs" What hard
work they made of spelling in those
days!
He is buried at Charlestown, near
Boston, and his grave is beside that
of John Harvard.
William Bartholomew was man of
mark in his day; he had a good edu-
cation, and acquired much property.

THE FIRST TASTE
Learned to Drink Coffee When Baby.

If parents realized the fact that cof-
fee contains rug-cafeine-which is
especially harmful to children, they
would doubtless hesitate before giving
the babies coffee to drink.
When l was a child in my moth
er's arms and first began to nibble
things at the table, mother used to
give me sips of coffee. AS my parents
used coffee exclusively at meals I
never knew there was anything to
drink but coffee and water.
"And SO I contracted the coffee
habit early. l remember when quite
young the continual use Of coffee so
affected my parents that they tried
roasting wheat and barley, then
ground it in the coffee-mill, as sub
stitute for coffee.
"But it did not taste right and they
went back to coffee again. That was
long before Postum was ever heard
of. l continued to use coffee until l
was 81, and when got into office
work, began to have nervous spells.
Especially after breakfast I was so
nervous I could scarcely attend to my
correspondence.
cat night, after having coffee for
supper, I could hardly sleep, and on
rising in the morning would feel weak
and nervous.
"a friend persuaded me to try
Postum. My wife and I did not like
it at first, but later when boiled good
and strong it was fine. Now we would
not give up Postum for the best coffee
we ever tasted.
II can now get good sleep, am free
from nervousness and headaches. I
recommend Postum to all coffee drink
ers."

Doctor Cabell returned to England,
where he remained several years, en-
gagged in settling the estate of his rich
old aunt, Joan Grant.
For their descendants, who aspire
to membership with patriotic soci-
cites, it must be recorded that
the doctors son, William, was
member of militia and justice of the
peace; from 1857 to 1851, he was in
the house of burgesses, and he and 9TH
er members, George Washington being
one, subscribed funds for the introduce
ton of silk and wine making in Vir-
ginia. 1t was Colonel Williams son,
Samuel Jordan Cabell, whose name
is recorded in Heitman's Officers of
the Revolution"

William, was large land owner, both
in Virginia and Kentucky-broad

has had a variety of orthographiea.

Caballus is a name in Domesday
Book, and it means horse. Men took
their names in various ways. The
first Caballus was thus called, doubt
less on account of his prowess as
horseman, and the black shield which
he carried, was blazoned with a horse
rampant, argent, with bit and bride
