Fred Haukohl stole gun last week
and went out hunting. He came home
with a poor little butterfly the only
trophy of his chase. The boys say
that when Fred sights squirrel he
starts in to run the animal down and
when the squirrel takes to tree Fred
throws stones at him. He is perfectly
harmless when he has gun.

The invention consists Of a canvas-
covered pneumatic tub that is pumped

He has experimental with it as an aid

What is WOm1n'S
Beauty but Health?
And the Basis Of Her Health and
V1g0r Lies IN the Careful Reg
iL0tiOn of the BOereLs.

If woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be a
picture of loneliness. But beauty lies
deeper than that. 1t lies in health. In
the majority of cases the basis of
health, and the cause OF sickness, can
be traced to the action Of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully, they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
1t Is important that the condition
should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re
quirements. is DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands Of women en-
dorse highly, among them Mrs. G. s.
Vance. of Oil S. Ray ST., New Castle,
Pa. At times she had spells OF indi-
gestion so severe that she thought she
would die. Syrup Pepsin regulated her
stomach and bowels, and she attrib-
utes her excellent health today to this
remedy.
All the family can use DIR. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, for thousands Of moth
ers give it to babies and children. 1t
Is also admirably suited to the require
ments of elderly people. in fact to all
who by reason of age or intirmity can
not stand harsh salts, cathartics, pills
or purgatives. These should always be

"Quiz," Which Is in Such Common
Use, hias No Root Nor Etymo-
logical Meaning.

The word quiz is one Of the few
English words which has no root nor
genealogical meaning to give a hint
of what it signifies.
1t is said, in fact, that the manu-.
facturer of the word himself did not
know what ii meant. He made it
up jokingly, according to the follow.
ing story of the words origin:
Many years ago there lived In Dub.
lin person whose name was DAILY.
According to custom he and a party
Of friends were gathered together one
evening. when he made a wager that
by the end Of the following day every
man in Dublin would be speaking a
word having no meaning and being
derived from no language known.
The wager was eagerly taken up by
Days associates, who were sure that
he had no chance OF winning under
the circumstances.
DAILY owned among other things a
theater and after the party had brok-
en- up he called up all the men con-
ncctcd with the theater, assigned to
each certain portion Of the city. sup.
Tfcd them with chalk and instructed
them to write the letters 20, U-I.Z" on
every door and shop window in town
before daylight His orders were car.
ried out so effectually that before the
morning of the following day was over
everybody was asking of his neighbor
the meaning of the mysterious word
quiz" The ignorance Of its meaning
and its sudden appearance all over
the city created talk and conjecture
for many day.
When the truth that 1t was all
joke came out the word was adopted
as a synonym for jest and express.
sive also of puzzle because of the
questions and general perplexity It
had aroused.
To quiz means. therefore, in one
sense, to ask questions, and in other
to quiz person means to Jest with
or poke fun at him.
