THE MAKING OF WORDS.
Curious Origin Of Some of Our Most
Common Expressions.

ming of word. This kind of word
shrinkage Is more common than one
might suppose.
Sometimes the middle syllable of g
word will be slurred to the point of
extinction. From Mary Magdalene,
fearful and penitent, comes the word
maudlin. Sacristan is contracted into
sexton: the old French word paralysie
becomes palsy; hydropisie becomes
dropsy, and the word procurator be-
comes proctor in English. Bethlehem
Hospital For Lunatics, established in
London, came to be 4teiescoped into

faint for attaint
The word peach, commonly regarded
as English thief slang. goes back to
the time Of Shakespeare and is relat-

with golf. Caddie is from the French
word cadet. meaning junior or young

Cause of Impure Blood
Druggist Tells OF Best Remedy.


Pure healthy blood is most essen
tial factor to good health.
Poor, thin, devitalized blood may be
caused by a weakness of the digestive
organs, an accumulation of waste mat
ter in the system, an inactive liver Or
lack of exercise.
Whatever the cause the best rem
edy we know is our delicious cod liver
and iron tonic, Vinol. 1t will purify
and enrich the blood, tone up the di.
gestive organs, give you hearty APP
petite and create strength.
A case has just come to our atten-
ton from Schenectady, \. Y. Mrs.
Hattie Hall says: Il was forcibly re.
minded that my system was run down
and my blood in bad condition by an
abscess forming in my side which re-
Under the regular use of Vinol to pur-
fly and enrich my blood and build up
my strength this was soon healed, and
my general health was much improv-
ed.
If you have the slightest indication
of poor blood take Vinol. If it fails to
help you we will give back your mo-
ney. Leo H. Fihe, Druggist, Richmond

AYERS FOUNTAINS
ARE NOT SANITARY
Mayor Would Taboo New
Drinking Fountains and
Restore Old Cup.

Sanitary drinking fountains have
been declared by Mayor Zimmerman
to be exactly opposite of what the name
implies. The mayor stated recently
that instead of the sanitary drinking
in many public places in Richmond
and all over the country, are in many
cases unsanitary to a greater degree
than the old fashioned drinking cup
which several states have tabooed
from railroad trains, stations and
other places frequented by the public.
He stated that the idea for the
drinking fountains is excellent but
that they are unsanitary and more
liable to spread disease than the
drinking cup because of the misuses
to which they are put. In some cases
1t is due to ignorance of the persons
he said. Instead of letting the bub-
bling water flow into the mouth many
persons, he says, place their lips
directly over the outlet for the water.
In this manner, should the persons
using the fountain be infected, the
water which flows from the fountain
for some time may contain germs.
Another reason is that in many
cases the water from the sanitary
drinking fountain is the only water
which Is provided and at times it is
necessary to use water for other pur-
poses than for quenching the thirst,
he said "At times persons are seen
washing their hands over one of the
fountains where a few minutes later
some one may take a drink. Articles,
such as napkins and handkerchiefs are
often placed over the fountains"
The mayor stated that he would
not allow one of the fountains about
his residence and would try to pre-
vent the spread of their use. He de-
Clared that the drinking cup was more
sanitary and more easily used than
the bubbling fountains that are put
to so much misuse.

GRAY Hair Turns It's Natural
Color After Applying Sage Tea

druggists make their own but it's usu.
ally too sticky, so insist upon getting
"Wyeth's" which can be depended up,
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is the best remedy for
dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and
to stop falling hair.
Folks like ''Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur" because no one can possibly tell
that you darkened your hair. as it does
it so naturally and evenly, says a we'll
known downtown druggist. You dam
pen a sponge or soft brush and draw
it through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. This requires but
a few moments, by morning the gray
hair disappears and after another ap-
plication or two is restored to its
natural color and looks even more
beautiful and glossy than ever.

subject gives the public a chance to
compare the pictures with the play
made famous by the late Richard
Mansfield. Americas greatest actor.
King Baggot, who plays the part made
famous by Mr.. Mansfield, gives mas
terly presentation Of this dual charac-
ter. AS the kind hearted DR.. Jekyll he
pleases and as the hideous Mr.. Hyde
under the powerful drug he brings
shudders a plenty. In one effect the
film story excels. We get the dissolv-

facial manipulations employed on the

famous story. Don't fail to see this, the
best picture of it's kind made.

Not SO many years ago we heard a
good deal about photography as a
name for shorthand writing. but the
term seems to have gone out of use.
