man had ordered who brought the
food. for you see 1t was at his house
that the mother Of Mary and Johnny
worked every day.
You see, Johnny, that all we played
make-believe about yesterday came
true" said Mary. II am so glad we
did not let mother know we were
hungry"
I'VE did not get any beautiful pic
tures," said Johnny, "and we made
believe we had those just the same as
the other things"
Mary thought for a moment and
then her eyes fell upon the wonderful
paintings Jack Frost had made in the
night. Look" she said, pointing to
the windows, there Is beautiful
castle and away up In the tower l
expect there lives beautiful prin-
cess.
"See all the mountains around the
castle and the flowers like daisies
growing out ut the top. Below is a
little lake and swan sailing about,
and beyond Is the forest, and through
1t will come the prince who is to res
cue the princess from the tower"
Johnny opened his eyes wide Mt first

So the little Fairy Make-believe
crept right into their hearts and made
them so interested in pretending that
the fairy did more, for while they
were asleep that night she ran to the
home of her old friend Jack Frost and
asked his help.
She did not ask hin not to make
II colder by coming down from his
home up in Northland. She asked
him to come that very night and paint
on the windows of the house In which
the children live all the lovely pic
lures he could before morning.
Then she ran to another home
where the people had plenty and to

into their hearts and nestled SO close

PATTY

THE charming name of Patty Is not
= diminutive of Patricia as is
popularly supposed, but comes, curl
ously enough, from Martha. For that
reason it means becoming bitter des-
pite the fact that 1t has always been
bestowed on the sweetest heroInes of

Patty has certain sacred signifi-

Martha who was one of the sisters
Of Bethany. 1t was she who is said
to have destroyed by the sheer power
Of her faith a flre-breathing dragon
which attacked her family while they
were on n pilgrimage. Although she
is popularity supposed to have been
the sister Of Mary Magdalen, there
is some doubt among historians on
this score.
But however it may be, Martha was
the forerunner Of Patty and gives to
the latter name, not only religious
flavor, but a good old-fashioned name
which has become almost synonymous
with domesticity. A curious fact in
her evolution is that she was derived
through Russia where Martha became

Pope Didn't Always Take New Name

'oPe C'oht Always ] axe New Name.
1t Is well known that the pope after
his election assumes new name. But
1t Is not equally of general knowledge
that such was not always the custom,
although historians do not agree as to
the time when this change of names
was introduced.
Able Fleury, in his Ecclesiastical
History, says. that Sergius the Fifth
was the first to change his name
while the historian Onuphre says that
the first instance occurred in 958
when Cardinal Vitourien assumed the
name of John the Twelfth, because he
thought that his original name had a.
pagan ring. This motive evidently ap-
pealed to all his successors, for since
the election of Pope Benedict the
Ninth. in 1893. only one pope, Adrian
the Sixth, elected in 1922 retained his
former name.

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that SO many products that are ex.
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten: The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy 4
recommended by those who have bees
benefited, to those who are in need OF it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
preparation l have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulfills al.
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
