MARGARET


IT'S a fortunate woman who bears
the name of Margaret or any other of
its many derivatives, for it a its
origin in the most delicate fantasy.
The name is derived from the Per-
sian and is assigned the pearl at its
own particular jewel, the idea orig
mating from the beauteous notion
that the oyster, rising to the surface
of the water at night and opening
its shell in alteration, received in it's
mouth a drop OF dew concealed by the
3noonbeams into a pure pale gen..
Because a pearl of price is associat-
ed with the pearly gates of the Celes-
sial City, Margaret has been the name
given to innumerable saints in the va
rious countries of the world. Gre
mona adopted it to represent its allie
gorical character of maidenly inno-
cence and purity. Hungary accepted
1t also and Margaret Etheling, wife
of Malcolm Ceanmdr, took it to Scot
Ian dand made 1t the national Scot
fish feminine name. 1t went to Nor
way with the daughter of Alexander
III and slipped into Germany as Mar
garethe. The eldest of the heiresses
of Provence married st. Louis and
left Marguerite to French princesses.
Her niece, the daughter of Henry III,
was the first English Margaret. In
Italy the name became Margherita,
anu through the peHlGeIlCe o. mar
gherita of Cortona, which led to her
canonization, and because of her hui
miliSy, the daisy, the humblest flower
of the field became her especial sym
Dol and was called by the French term
marguerite"
Marjorie, Maisie, Madge, Meg, Mag
gle, Peggy, and May are some of the
English contractions of Margaret. The
French Margot and the Spanish Mar
garita and the italian Ghita also are
derivatives.
Tennyson has immortalized the
name in his exquisite poem:
90 sweet pale Margaret,
O rare pale Margaret.
What lit your eyes with fearful pow
er,
Like moonlight on a falling shower?
Who lent you, love, your mortal dover
OF pensive thought and aspect pale,
Your melancholy sweet and frail
As prfume of the euckoo-flower?
A fairy shield your Genius made
And gave you on your natal day,
Your sorrow, only sorrows shade,
Keeps real sorrow far away"
BY wearing her natal stone, the
pearl, the bearer of the name Mar
saret will fulfill the promise of the
gods which gives her purity, charm
and ~affability. Monday should be her
lucky day and Z her lucky number,
TO dream of pearls signifies faithful
friends. for the wearer of that par
ticular gem.

Sewickley, Pal
Pierce's medicines as
Cough and Catarrh

Oil City, Pa.:-"Ten years ago my hus-
band was so far gone with a 'hanging-on'
hacking cough and catarrh that he had to
give up his work and started to go to q doc
tor, three miles away. He only got two
miles away when he had to give up and
rest at the general store there. The store
keeper noticed his condition and made him
take a bottle of DR.. Pierce's GoldensMedical
Discovery; opened it and gave him a dose
then and there. After a while he was able
to return home. He finished the bottle and
gained strength rapidly. He then bought
a second bottle and it completely cured him

without complaint. This was ten years
ago, and today he is~-working unloading
lumber at the west end of the city."-MRS.
GEORGE BRADLEY, 108 Walnut st.
The best time to cure a cough is when 1t
starts. Ordinarily, a few doses OF Doctor

a cough at the beginning. But even when

Peter
Gives a Movie ShoW
BY THE STORY LADY.

Peter had kept his moving pic
ture machine a secret. Papa had
the little house in Palmer Park
wired for electricity and the day
that the expressman brought a
bulky package for Master Peter
Palmer, Papa and Peter spent
most of the day in the park. But
the rest of the children were
busy about their own affairs, SO
they were very much surprised
when they received written invitations
to attend a show at Palmer Park.
Every one that was invited was
there Henshaw family, Palmer family
and even Aunt Grace and Uncle Jim,
Their was a curtain stretched across
the end of the biggest room.
Everything went off beautifully,
The pictures were small but clear and
very funny. Between picturs Aunt
Grace played her mandolin and Mary
Ellen danced the little folk dances She
learned in school.
Uncle Jim had Papa tie him UP
with rope as tight as he could ~ther
he took the rope off of his hands with
out untying a single knot.
After the program the light were
turned on and Mamma and Aunt
Grace brought cake and ice cream
from somewhere.
Peter took Mary Ellen home.
ut was the best show I ever went
to, Peter"
And the best part of 1t was the
dancing, Mary Ellen.

FOOD PRODUCTS
SURVEY PLANNED
DR.. Lloyd Wants to Determine
Market for Tri-State
Foods.

The exact possibilities for marketing
food commodities produced in the Mem
phis territory In Memphis will be learned
by the Chamber Of Commerce farm bu-
reau by mears Of SURVEY which DR.. E.
r. Lloyd. director Of the bureau, is
planning to undertake in very short
while. He and his associates In the bu
reau viii gather statistics on the
amount of poultry. eggs. butter, dairy
products sweet and Irish potatoes and
other such products consumed in Mem
phis, together with figures on the pro-
portions of these products shipped in
from other sections Of the country. as
compared TO the proportions furnished
by the tri-state territory.
These figures will make basis for
future campaigns to improve the mar
ket for food products from the tri-
state territory BY virtue of this sur
vey, DR.. Lloyd expects to be able to
speak in concrete terms when his bu-
reau undertakes to boost the use Of any
"iven tri-state product in Memphis. II
IL should be sweet potatoes, for in
stance. ard the figures show that Mem
phis is consuming so many bushels Of
this product weekly or monthly. and
getting its supplies from other than tri-
state sources, he win say: Here. we
are producing as fine sweet potatoes in
this territory as you can buy anywhere.
Why don't YOU use tri state sweet po-
tatoes?" And he can say to the potato
growers There is a market for this or
that amount of sweet potatoes in Mem
phis."
Later. DR.. Lloyd hopes to make sim
liar survey of feed products, such as
alfalfa and other hays and corn. He
will find out definitely Just how much
Of this kind Of stuff Is handled In Mem
phis and the proportion of 1t which Is

SCHOOLS HELPING
TO CONSERVE FUEL
Hours Changed and All Meet
ings Changed for Time
Being.

During the fuel crisis the city schools
Of Memphis will begin their sessions at
$50 o'clock and close at 2 o'clock, be-
ginning Thursday, according to an an
nouncement made by Prof. Wharton S.
jones' superintendent Of schools.
The buildings in which night schools
are held will be the only ones In the
system heated or lighted after 2 o'clock
and no meeting Of any kindN will be
permitted in the buildings after that
hour.
Prof. Jones is of the opinion that a
great saving in fuel will be effected by
the adoption Of this regulation and will
enable the schools to continue their ses-
sions uninterrupted regardless of the
length Of time the fuel shortage exists,
Recreation work and the use of the
buildings as community centers and all
meetings Of Parent Teacher associations
and other civic organizations in the
school buildings will therefore be held
elswhere during the time the above
regulation Is effective. ,.a

Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send For Brooks
Rupture Appliance

/. 1t is absolutely the only Appliance
of the kind on the market today and in
1t are embodied the principles that in
ventors have sought after for years.
2. The Appliance for retaining the
rupture cannot be thrown out OF posi-
ton.
3. Being an air cushion of soft rubber.
1t clings closely to the body, yet sever
blisters or causes irritation.
4. Unlike the ordinary so called pads,
used in other trusses, 1t is not cumber-
some or ungainly.
5. It is small soft and pLable. and
positively cannot be detected through
the clothing.
G. The soft, pllable bands holding the
Appliance do not give one the unpleaS-
ant sensation of wearing a harness.
7. There is nothing about 1t to get
foul, and when 1t becomes soied II
can be washed without injuing 1t in
the least.
s. There are no metal springs in the
Appliance to torture one by cutting
and bruising the flesh.
3. All Of the material of which the
Appliances are made is OF the very best
that money can buy, making II dura-
BILE and safe Appliance to wear
10. Our reputation for honesty and
