FRANCES.

Freedom is the significance Of
Frances. the name which Is used
INTERCHANGEABLE with only one let
ter's difference as a masculine and
feminine proper name. 1t Is de-
rived from the Teutonic fret" but.
curiously enough. made it's first ap-
pearance In a near approach TO its
present form in Italy. where the
son OF an Italian merchant became
so fluent as a French scholar that
his baptismal name of Giovanni was
lost to sight and he went by the
term of I'll Francesca" The
Frenchman). 1t was this same
youth who later was canonized and
founded the order OF the Frances
can brotherhood.
The first feminine form OF the
name was the title of the unhappy
lady whose doom was so exquisitely
told by Dante in his romance of
'PaolO and Francesca" which is
one of the great love stories of lit
erature. San Francesca di Roma
was a devout housewife OF great
popularity in Italy and in 1900
there was a FRANCHISE Of fame at
Cambria.
Frances came into being through
Mary Tudor. who. in honor OF Fran
co.'s I, king Of France, and i'm mem
DRY of her own brief rule on the
throne of France, christened her
first child Frances She was the
Lady Frances Brandon, who estab-
lished the name in the Tudor court
and made it forever popular in Eng
land
Francis and Frances were both
used as feminine names without dis
tinction in those days, and Frank
was the diminutive bestowed exclu-
sively on English maids The wife
Of the duke of Richmond was so
called and history recalls that the
duke would subdue her naughty
pride on occasion by saying: Frank,
Frank, how long is it since thou
vast married to Prannel?" Thus re-
minding her of an early elopement
with a vintner. Lady Fanny Shir-
ley was a famous English beauty
whose baptismal name was I'M
doubtedly Frances.

taking, preservation from evil, and
faithful friends. Friday is her
lucky day and seven her lucky num-
Der. The morning glory of content

FIVE WAYS TO MAKE FRUIT

meal is a simple one, the dessert
may be a rich cream that supplies
substantial food value just as much
as 1t temps the palate.
Cream isn't merely a delicacy-it
contains much nOurishment and alb
sOlutely no waste. II is just as
wholesome as milk and butter.

pensed with If too costly. Here are
a few delicious desserts with a
cream basis, which will add variety

IN THE TRAIL OF THE AUTO
Every Thirty-Five Minutes Person
Is Killed by an Automobile.

/ Look at your watch and note the
/ time. When thirty-five minutes have
ticked away you may say, another
automobile killing somewhere" and
thirty-five minutes later, another
and so on-another and another and
another for twenty-four hours, the
week, the month.
This startling computation is that
of Secretary Williams of the National
Safety Council. He has others:
Three times as many people are killed
by automobiles as by all the railroads
and in all the mines and factories of
the land. Motor-car deaths increase
swiftly not alone in New York; in
Chicago they pass last years by %
per cent. The number of cars grows
in pace with the red toll of man
slaughter.
The councils report rightly says
that the problem cannot be solved by
legislation alone, but must be at
tackled by thoroughly aroused pub
lie opinion" Moderate and careful
motor-car owners are, in this, part
of the public Their own lives and
limbs are menaced by hoodlumism,
armed with locomotive power, even
more than those of the unfortunate
pedestrial.
But legislators cannot evade re-
sponsibility for motor-car killing by
pleading the public duty. Reckless
ness and lack of consideration for
common rights can never be wholly
eliminated, but they can be lessened
by just severity and wise precau-
tions. Children at the wheel cannot
be tolerated. The skill of owners
must be as much subject to test as
that of hired drivers. There must be
prompt and uniform revocation or Ii
cense for cause. Road rules must be
obeyed.
In New York State, especially, neg
lect has long enough borne fruit in
an increasing toll of death. One of
the pressing duties of the legislature
next winter is to modernize the mo-
tor-car laws of the state

THIS rs WORTH READING


The experience Of Mr.. E. ]. Tou-
palik, 143S Rose street, Lacrosse,
Wisconsin, is chiefly remarkable
on account of the length OF time
he was afflicted.
He writes: 81 have been SUI
fering with chronic bronchitis for
twenty-six years and every winter

hoarse I could not speak for six or
eight weeks. / could get only tenn

Grip and was in awful shape. A
fellow workman advised me to take
PE-RU-NA. By the time had
used three-fourths Of a bottle, the
hoarseness was gone, also that
tired feeling. I am on my second
bottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA will
be constantly in my house. It is
the best medicine ever put up for
the purpose"
For any disease due to catarrh
or catarrhal conditions, PE-RU-NA
is equally dependable. Coughs,
colds, catarrh Of the head, stomach
trouble, constipation, rheumatism,
pains in the back, side and loins,
bloating, belching ras, indigestion,
catarrh of the large and small in
testipes, are some Of the troubles
for which PE-RU-NA is especially
recommended.
