Roman Historian Wrote of ''Noble" Caledonian.

Picts is the name by which, for five
and half centuries-296 to S44 A. D.
the people that inhabited eastern
Scotland, from the Forth to the Pent-
land firth, were known. In certain
chronicles they are styled Picti, Pic
tones, Pictores, or Piccardaig-
forms Of the same root but some
times the native Gaelic name Of
Cruithnig is applied to them, and
their country called Cruithen-tuath,
the equivalent of the Latin Pictavia
and Old Morse Pettland, which still
survives in the name Of the Pentland
firth. In their wars in Britain the
Romans came into collision with the
Picts. One Roman or Latin writer of
that time speaks of "the Caledonians
and other Picts," which implies the in.
clusion of the former in the latter
people. The well-known Roman his
torian, Tacitus, calls Scotland north

MOTHERS ARE
LEARNING USES
OF MAGNESIA.

From the beginning of expectancy
until baby is weaned, Phillips Milk
of Magnesia performs the greatest
service for many women.
1t relieves nausea, heartburn,
"morning Sickness" inclination to
vomit; helps digestion. Its mild lax
ative action assures regular bowel
movement.
Phillips Milk of Magnesia is bet
ter than lime water for neutralizing
cows milk for infant feeding.
All drugstores have Phillips Milk
Of Magnesia in generous 25c and SOC
bottles. Always insist on the genuine,
endorsed by physicians for 30 years.

To be q
Healthy Woman
wotch your Bowels!

What should women do to keep
their bowels moving freely? A doc
tor should know the answer. That
is why pure Syrup Pepsin is SO
good for women. It just suits their
delicate organism. 1t is the pre-
scription Of an old family doctor
who has treated thousands Of wom-
en- patients, and who made a spe-
cial study Of bowel troubles.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
made from fresh, laxative herbs,
pure pepsin and other harmless in
gradients. It doesn't sicken or
weaken you. No restrictions Of
habit or diet are necessary while
taking it. But it's action is thor
ough. 1t carries off the sour bile
and poisonous waste. 1t does every
thing you want it to do. 1t is fine
for children, too. They love it's
taste. Let them have it every time
their tongues are coated or their
skin is sallow.
When you've a sick headache, can't
eat, are bilious or sluggish; and at
the times when you are most apt to
be constipated, take little of this
famous prescription Gall druggists
keep it ready in big bottles), and
you'll know why DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin is the favorite lax
alive of over million women!

Jeems he gives a pistol, bidding
him perfect himself in marksman-

tour. whom they both adore.
Next day Jeems calls at the Ton
teur homo and apologies for
brawling in front Of Toinette.
The Tonteurs go to Quebec. Four
years pass. War between Brit
ain and France flames. Jeems re-
turns from hunt to find his
home burned and his father and
mother slain. He goes to the
seigneurie and finds the manor
destroyed and Tonteur and his
servants dead. Believeing him
an enemy, Toinette wounds
Jeems and denounces him as an
Englishman.

In New York

New York.-Center Island a suburb which has gained the repu- tation of being America's' wealth. fest hamlet, now has competition:
 Just the other day the village of Roslyn Harbor, Long Island. voted itself a place on the map. And never was there quite such de luxe ballot. Sixteen persons voted They were all millionaires or null i-millionaires.
 The complete population of this new Croesus town is about 350 and most of these are servants. It so happens that there is a third millionaire village in the run ming: Brookville, L. l., which was voted into existence few months ago. But 10 votes were cast at that time.
 The voters included Howard Brokaw, Reginald Townsend. Col onel Griscom and Charles Thierot and if you don't happen to know who they are, just consult your Dunn and Bradstreet. No voting booth was employed-perish the thought. A ballot box was placed in the palatial front hall of David Dows, the millionaire banker.
 The wealth of these three tiny towns, if aggregated, would end London's financial worries or buy most of Manhattan.
 Center Island, first of the ultra rich townships. has a population of but 30 persons. outside of maids, buffers and such. And they're all millionaires. The city officers-mayor, commissioners and clerk - serve without salaries. There are jobs enough for most of the population.
 The newest, Roslyn Harbor, cov- CTS an area of 750 acres. It is here, by the way, that William" Cullen Bryant's historic homestead is To- cated. This is now the property of Mrs. Harold Goodwin. It is here, too, that MT. and Mrs. Childs Prick dwell.
 The new community was organ ized for much the same purpose as the others; to create zoning laws that would keep out all com mercial enterprises. Clarence E. Schwerin, who is the town en- gineer in charge of such zonine matters. is merely the president of a half dozen water power com panies and coal companies. besides being a celebrated mining en- | gineer.

North bid three hearts, East passed, and South, finding his part ner with normal support in hearts, does not show his club suit, but bids four hearts, which closes the contracting.
 The Play
 Vests opening lead was the king of spades which South, the deciarer, won with the ace. He led the ace of hearts, and when the queen fell from the West hand. he must expect to find the jack and nine in the East hand unless, of course, West is false-carding. As the declarer is unable to get into the dummy. it looks as If game is impossible, but the declarer de- cides to throw West in and force him to make lead. So the ten or spades Is led. West wins with the jack, and cashes his good queen oi spades.
 West is confronted with bad problem for a lead. If he leads spades, declarer will discard a hand. To lead a club might be club in dummy and ruff in his own just what the declarer wishes. The lead of a diamond will allow the declarer to get into the dummy, but as West does not hold the king of clubs and this would allow the declarer to take a club finesse, West figures that the wisest lead is his clubs, and leads the three spot, dummy playing the nine. East covering with the king and declarer wins the trick with the ace. Declarer then plays his queen of clubs and a small club. trump ing in dummy with the five spot. but East over-trumps with the nine. East returns the jack or hearts, which the declarer wins with the king and then leads the five of clubs. trumping in dummy with the seven of hearts. The other club is discarded on the ace of diamonds in dummy and de- clarer wins the last three tricks with his three trump.
 Unable to get into the dummy, South, the declarer. throws west in and forces him to lead. rms play gives the declarer game.
