whats in a Name?"
By MILDRED MARSHALL
Facts about your name; its history; mean
ing; whence it was derived; significance;
your lucky day and lucky jewel
VIRGINIA

THE real origin of Virginia is GU
rious and somewhat unexpected.
1t means "fourishing'' and comes from
an old Latin gems who called them
selves Verginius. Their name was de-
rived in turn from vireo, meaning to
flourish. and was connected to the
word "ver," translated as spring. Vir-
glnio was the name of the far-famed
Orsini family.
The more popular and prevalent be-
lief regarding the origin of Virginia
has always been that she came from
the Latin virgo, meaning IA virgin"
Indeed, the first instance of her use
Elizabeth when Sir Walter Raleigh,
named his American colony Virginia
in honor of the Virgin Queen.
1t was under a similar belief that
Bernadin de st. Pierre called the hero
inc of his tropical Arcadian nan
Virginie. The widespread popularity
of this story in England, France and
Germany brought Virginia into enor-
nous vogue throughout Europe.
France still adores her Virginie, and
her popularity in England is assured
forever out of sentimental memory of
the famous queen.
The first American colony estab-
Iished the name in this country. Like
wise the first white child born on
American soil. and named Virginia
Dare did much to spread its vogue.
The South has always abounded in
Virginias, which, unfortunately has
been contracted to unmuSical "yirgies"
and "Jinnys."
The emerald Is Virginia's tails
manic stone. 1t promises her wisdom,
prophetic vision, long youth, and
charm. The hawthorne bud, England's
flower, is Virginia's flower.
Wednesday is her lucky day and 3
her lucky number.

would indicate whether or not it is
genuine Grimm. We will test out
any samples your organization de-
sires to send US and if it is preferable
for you to forward the samples under
number instead of the growers name
this plan is acceptable to US.
We will use our efforts to further
the sale of your certified Grimm seed
in our state. That is the kind of
seed our farmers want and can de-
pend upon.
hcation of Grimm Seed
The advantage of this system are
so outstanding that their
alton hardly seems necessary but it
is safe to say that a good working
plan will bring forth the following
benefits:
First: 1t will furnish the western
grower who desires to get started in
growing Grimm alfalfa seed a depen-
dable source for his seed.
Second: 1t will furnish the eastern
alfalfa growers assured sources of
genuine Grimm.
Third: 1t will build up a reputa-
ton for your state as a Grimm pro-
ducing center that will mean thou
sands and thousands of dollars to
your growers.
Fourth: 1t will increase the de-
mand for Grimm alfalfa seed from
the eastern states. Our farmers
hesitate to buy Grimm without ample
that it is genuine.
Fifth: The grower of certified
Grimm will have a wider demand and
better price for his product.
We have spent much time and eff
fort through out association in Wis
consin in demonstrating the merits
of true Grimm alfalfa and in doing
so we render you growers an adver-

COWBOYS

TINE term Cowboy" is not, as
l. many think, of origin in the
wild and woody West" 1t was first
applied during the American Revolu-
ton to a band of Tsrits who operated
around Westchester county, New
York. stealing cattle from both par
ties impartially. The application to
the men who herded cattle on the
western plains came later, but was
derived from the same origin.

Periodic Bilious Attacks

Persons subject to bilious attacks
at regular intervals know about when
to expect an attack. They find that
they have no desire for food when
an attack is due but usually eat be-
cause it is meal time. Skip one meal
and take three of Chamberlain's Tab
lets and you may be able to avoid
the attack. Persons subject to per
iodic attacks should not drink tea
or coffee at any time.

investigation of scholars has dis
closed grounds for the belief that the
event celebrated by Purim is none 9th
er than the coming of spring. The
character of the festival is unmistak-
able, in the belief of ~searchers. It's
occurrence in. the middle of the last
month of the winter points to it's be-

THE RIGHT THING
AT
THE RIGHT TIME
BY MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
THE GIVEAWAY

A man by nothing is so well betrayed
as by his manners-Spenser.
HERE are many persons who feel
that a mans table manner are an
index to his general good breeding. If
he handles his knife and fork in the
way that is accepted as correct" they
will put him down as well bred until
they have very conclusive evidence
that he is not; but if he shows ignor-
ance of or indifference to this accept
ed method hen it will take much to
make them believe that he has any
claim to good breeding. This may be
unfair, but it is true. Here are some
of the things that convention requires
us to remember in our manners at the
table:
The salad is cut with the side of the
fork and then eaten from the side of
the fork.
Fish, soft entrees and, in fact, any
thing that does not absolutely demand
the use of a knife, are separated into
small pieces by the use of the fork,
which is most excellent, as the knife at
its best is a most ungainly utensil.
That you should never mash your
food with your fork and never sit with
your fork or knife appraised, like a tele-
graph pole.
That when not in use, either knife or
fork must be laid on the plate a, oH.e
side.
Never tilt your fork and knife on
the sides of your plate, that is, with
the handle on the tablecloth on either
side and the tips on the edge of the
plate.
That every time a course is removed
you should lay the knife, fork or spoon
used in eating it on the side of the
plate.
Do not cross knife and fork on the
plate, but lay them side by side.
In eating soup. custard, fruit, or any
dish which demands a spoon, be sure
you sip the food noiselessly from the
side of the spoon, never from the tip.
Never dip your individual fork or
spoon into a dish that is passed to you,
but always employ the fork or spoon
which will be found on the tray beside
dish, or on the dish itself. r
All sorts of small relishes, like rad
ishes, olives, sailed nuts and bon-bons,
are eaten from the fingers, but this
must be done very daintily.
