WHO ARE YOU?
The Romance of Your Name
BY RUBY HASKINS ELLIS

shepheard, Sheppard, shepperd and
Shepard being the most commonly
known.
1t Is interesting to note that the an
cient old English document, the Hun
cred Rolls, lists the name as Pastor and
LIE Pastur, from which, Of course, the
pastor Of church gets his title.
In the New England colony we dis
cover numerous early settlers of the
name OF Shepard. Andrew Shepard was
a merchant in Boston prior to 1875.
Edward was a freeman In Cambridge,
Mass, in 1643. Francis was at Charles
town in 1877. Ralph came from Eng
land to Charlestown in 1885, but finally
settled in Maiden, Mass. Samuel took
the oath Of allegiance TO the Colonies
in Haverhill, Mass, in 1877. Soloman
was freeman In Salisbury in 1890.
There are too many Johns to give all
honorable mention, but Just In passing
We will name few for the benefit OF
those who may have lost all trace Of
their John. John, born In England In
1890, brother of Edward. settled in
Baintree in 1885. There were John, who
married in Cambridge In 1649: John,
who was Representative from Lynn
In 1889; John, resident Of Row1ey in
1891; John, freeman In Concord in
1890. (All in Massachusetts,
The coat OF arms used here was
borne by the Rev. Thomas Shepard,

Audubon. the famous naturalist, on

sight of the mule deer. He and his
companions watched with delight four
mule deer as they wound their way
along the willow-edged banks. The

Uncommon Sense
Be,Oare SeIf-Pity
BY JOHN BLAKE.

TN his book, Buried Alive" Arnold
Bennett told the story Of q man
whose passing on had been an
L nounced by mistake. and who sat
in Westminster Abbey, attending
what was intended for his own funeral,
as he wept bitter tears because Of his
own untimely demise. think such q
thing is quite possible.
We are all a trifle too prone to be
sorry for ourselves. That habit OF mind
leads us to find Sights where none are
intended, and to get altogether too
worked up over our own misfortunes,
real or imagined.
=
If you have a great capacity Tor
sympathy, you can put 1t to good pur-
pose by sympathizing with others. and
never fear lest there will be plenty
of others on whom to bestowsit.
It is Just as well to make up your
mind In the beginning that you are 60
ing to come into contact with many
disagreeable people, some OF whom, 1or
one reason or another, will deliberately
hurt your feelings. But what Of it?
You would not resent the sharpness
of a stone upon which you happened to
fall, thereby cutting a cash In your
elbow. The stone was there, and II you
had used your wits, you might nave
avoided it.
You might as we'll make up your
mind at the start that you will not al
ways be greeted with a smile or vel
come by every one you meet. You may
be fortunate enough to have an en-
ployer who is deliberately unkind to
YOU, But SO do many other people, and
those who are intelligent put up with
hard looks and mean words until they
can get another job and better en-
ployer.
It may be said that if one is not sorry
for himself no one else will be. But
why should he want anybody to be
sorry for him?
Sympathy is fine quality, and all
the finer for its rarity. People who are
worried with their own troubles rarely
have time to bother much over the
troubles of others.
y
If you think you are hardly used, get
along somehow till you can get another
Job But don't think the whole world
is combined against you, just because
you have had an unpleasant contact
with a crouch who was mean enough
to be ugly to you because he knew you
would have to take it. Above all, do
not brood over your injuries, real or
fancied.
Brooding is a dangerous and a soul.
destroying habit, and you will never be
able to get much out of life if you have
it. Moreover the number of people
who like to hurt the feelings Of others
is limited. and it may cheer you up to
know that they themselves never have
good time, for soured natures are
burden to those who possess them.

think this would be an excellent time
for Benny to have his ferst object les

Sammy gave the stranger no furtner
thought. He didn't even mention the
stranger to others.
Afterward others saw the stranger
and soon every one knew OF the
strangers presence. But as he kept
by himself no one paid any attention
to him. Now and then he would be
seen sitting near the top Of tree or
on a fence post or on telephone pole,
apparently satisfied to be alone and
appearing to pay no attention what
ever to his neighbors. So they paid no
attention to him. He was quiet, un-
obtrusive and seemed satisfied to have
no friends. Only Tommy Tit the
Chickadee was suspicious of him, and
Tommy is such a friendly small per-
son that usually he is the last one tc
be suspicious of any one.
II don't like that fellow" said
Tommy.
"WhyP What's wrong with him?"
asked Yank Yank the Nuthatch.
Il don't know" replied Tommy Tit
Then he added honestly: Il haven't
seen him do single thing out of the
way and he certainly does mind his
own affairs, which is more than I can
say for some others. I just don't like
him. that is all"
He looks harmless enough" replied

he is, but somehow l don't like him
I never do like people who seem to
want no friends. 1t seems to me there
is something wrong with them. This
fellow never has anything to do with
anybody, not even to pick a quarrel
with some one. I guess 1 would like
him better If he did that"
Have you looked at his feet?" asked
Yank Yank.
No" replied Tommy. What is the
matter with his feet?"
Nothing" replied Yank Yank. u

much to look at. They are just COM

size. If they were stout and strong
with big claws like those of Killy the
Sparrow Hawk I might suspect that
he is not as innocent as he looks, but
anything to fear from him"
What does he eat" asked Tommy

7 PROMISED that I would give you
a recipe for making paste before
the end of the year and here it
comes "just under the wire"
Corner readers have been ever
so kind in helping me to prepare
good one, and the plan which follows
must be taken as the combined result
of the letters of suggestion which they
have sent me.
Heat half a pint of water in an open
container and when it Is at or near the
boiling point put In this mixture:
Two rounded tablespoonfuls Of white
Rht tHa sWo ana eSe OF
powdered alum. These should be mixed
well before they are added To the water.
Stir until the paste Is clear While
1t is cooling add one or two tablespoon
fuls of rubbing alcohol. Then place it
in Jar with cover which fits tightly.
In a test I found that the paste
could be made and placed in a jar in
about 10 minutes. The only thing in
the recipe which is not likely to be
found around the house Is powdered
alum For a nickel or dime you
for several patches Of paste.
If you want the paste to have
pleasant odor add few drops of win
tergreen, peppermint or Glove oil.
The alcohol will help to prevent
mold. and there Is some danger Of that
is kept tightly sealed.
If you like, you may double the
amount Of each part of the recipe and
make twice the amount Of paste-one
pint water, four rounded tablespoonfuls
of sugar, and the same of -four. and
two level teaSpOonfuls OF alum. sIrl this
case, if you do not wish to use all the
paste at once, place half of 1t while it
is hot in an empty jar and ask your
mother to help you to seal 1t with
paraf11n.
In a home where there are "tiny
tots" years old or less, 1t Is well to
make it certain rule that all liquids
shall be cooked at the back of the
stove-out of reach of the little fellow
or little miss who might take hold Of
q. pan handle Remember this when
you make the paste and also at other
times
Paste Of this kind costs little and
sticks tightly. I hope that the recipe
will be helpful to you in making Cor
ner scrapbook during 1884. If you have
not joined the Scrapbook club, I want
you to know that you will be, most

are no dues to pay for the club and

0ne-Item Diets for Beauty.


TT YOU are too thin, you diet; if
you are too fat. you diet, too, and
if your complexion is dry or pimply
Il or your hair falling out, you change
your diet. Dieting has become the
modern panacea for all sorts of beauty
troubles because most women have
passed beyond the superficial notion
that external beauty aids can really
cure everything.
There is danger. however, of going
too far with dieting fads Usually
these fadS start with a person who
was really greatly benefited by a par
ticular dietary regimen and is imbued
with missionary zeal to spread his Won
derful discovery. He is likely to forget
that what suits his constitution may
be detrimental, or at least ineffective,
IN ether cases. The old saying that
what is one mans meat is poison to
another is as true today as it ever was.
Wholesale prescriptions Of special diets
are as unScientifc as wholesale pre-
scriptions of drugs. Each individual
is a different problem.
Diets consisting of only one sort of
food are especially appealing because
of their simplicity and apparent reason
ableness. Their use in the cure of
disease has become a commonplace,
but they are also invading the beauty
field Some Of them can be very valu-
able in improving the physical we'll
being and good looks of almost any one,
but We must learn to discriminate be-
tween freak diets and safe ones.
Among the latter are the exclusive
use of milk or fruit diets which may
be safely undertaken by the average
person for several days at a time to
clear the complexion and improve gen.
eral health. One must remember, how
ever. that there are physical disorders
like rupture and contracted kidney that
make liquid diets undesirable.
An authority on the milk diet gives
the following instructions on using the
diet for periods of two or three days:
Begin by drinking a glass of mineral
water on the morning Of the first day.
During the next II hours drink from
four to six quarts of milk, which should
be of room temperature, not ice-cold.
When one wants to lose weight the
minimum Of four quarts daily should be
taken. An equal quantity of milk is
slipped every half hour. While taking
the milk diet, one should rest in bed,
relaxing mentally and physically Take
a prolonged tepid bath once a day.
If the whole milk causes digestive dis
turbanceS one may substitute SKINNED
milk or buttermilk. Some people suf-
fer from nausea on an exclusive milk

Mule Deer.
BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY.

~ N THE 18th Of September, 1904
the mule deer was discovered
ttss BY Lewis ;, and ~ CLARK: CLARK in in the the
Missouri River. They named
1t the black-tailed deer, and it was not
until 1905, on May 81, that they dis
covered the true black-tailed deer, on
the Columbia River.
The mule deer Is considered one OF
the most stately members Of the deer
family. He is a housekeeping animal,
carrying his head and neck in q way to
display the sturdy, wide antlers. These
have q wider spread than those Of his
cousin, the white-tailed deer, and the
tines from the main beam divide and
form two Y's on the beam. Those Of
the Whitehall deer seldom divide from
the main beam.
Because of the size and shape Of the
large ears, this deer has received its
name. In length, the male is about 5
feet inches long and weighs about
200 pounds. The tail is light colored
and is 71a inches long. 1t has short
hair on the upper side but is naked
underneath, while a tuft of hair deco
rates the tip. In Summer, the adults
are yellowish brown. shading to red
dish brown above and black below.
There is a large patch of white sur
rounding the rump and tail. In Win
ter, the coat is dark gray, but the COL
oring otherwise Is the same.
These deer range over Northern Ar1-
zona to British Columbia in the noun
tains. foothills and plains. Their range
overlaps with those of the Virginia
deer, in the Great Plains and in the
Rockies, as well as in tar Southern
United States. In appearance and
habits the deer are very different.
In the Rocky Mountains this deer is
called the black deer, because the true
black deer is not known. On the Pa
cif1c Coast 1t Is known by its true
name. In size, the mule deer ranks
next to the wapiti and moose.
The mule deer has q most unusual
gait, q stiff Legged sort Of leap, with
all four feet coming together to the
ground. Even so. 1t can get over the
ground with astonishing speed, and can
keep up the gait for long time, tir-
ing out the dogs and wolves that give
1t chase.
The deer loves the mountains. Be
ing sure-footed, the animals feel more
secure. Before the country became 30
densely populated and travelling so easy,
the deer roamed the Great Plains West
Of the Rocky Mountains, this deer Is

Let your light SO shine before men that
they may see. Matt, VIC.
TzAAK WALTON, who is generally
considered the patron saint of fisher
men, was in reality something OF q
philosopher. What, for example, can
be better or more suggestive as rule
of life than the sage counsel he gives
in a certain place TO the angler regard
ing his position with reference to the
sunlight and the stream in which he Is
to fish?
Always face the sunny side Of the
stream" says he. Never stand so that
the sun will cast your shadow across the
water"
We see at once the reason for this.
Fish are timid folk and the slightest
change of conditions, even if it is moth
ing more than the darkening of the
water about them by falling shadow,
will frighten them away, and thus the
purpose Of the angler be frustrated.
Much more than that does 1t mean
L
mind that other, that greater, game that
We call life. Face the sunlight!
Always stand so that nothing that you
are or do shall cast shadow. Be care
full that the way Of the people around
you is not darkened because of you. Let
the product of your personality and the
outgoing of your influence be for illum1-
nation and not for obscuratton or
eclipse.
What q rule that Is to live by, and

emily endeavors to live by It'll
Let your light so shine that others

along life's way you should so live and
act that. your life will be a light to your
fellow travelers-a light that will enable
them to walk more certainly and conf
IDENTIFY. Are you doing that? Or are
you spreading darkness and confusion
for those who travel life's way with you,
thus making life more difficult and
perilous for them?
THAT others may see" Ignorance,
poverty, evil environment, bad circum-
stances, III health and other un-
fortunate conditions have confused the
way Of life for countless numbers.
Whatever the cause, 1t is an unspeak-
able tragedy to see so many trying to
make nfes journey along such dark
roads. with little or no light to guide
them. No wonder such people go
wrong. No wonder they make shipwreck
of life Let us not blame them. Let us
not condemn them. 1t is not our place
