when 111 she must make her blood rich to renew her health.The | nursing mother more than any other woman needs rich blood and plenty of It.There is one way to get this good blood so necessary to health, and that Is through the use of Dr.Williams' Pink Pills.These enrich the blood, and through their use many weak, ailing wives and mothers have been benefltted.If you are ailing, easily tired or depressed, it is a duty you owe yourself and your family to give Dr.Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial.You can get Dr.Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer In medicine or by mall at 60c a box from The Dr.Williams\u2019 Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.PERKINS ?Canada can reduce her ma- Plerce, Pierson, Peters, How to Purify the Blood Variations Parkins, Park, Parr.Racial Origin\u2014Medieval English.Sourc A given name.Keep Mlnard's Liniment In the house.Perkins, with Its many variations, Is a surname which takes its origin from \"Fifteen to thirty drops of Extract of Root, commonly called Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, may be taken in water with meals and at bedtime, for indigestion, constipation and bad blood.Persistence in this treatment will give permanent relief in nearly every case.\u201d Get the genuine at druggists, 50c.and $ 1.00 bottle*.the given name of Peter.In some of these names the Anglo- numes It was widespread In medieval Saxon Influence can be traced, and In England, where the Anglo-Saxon trend others that of the Norman French, toward short forms of names, however, while In still others there Is nothing brought It down to the popular form of to distinguish which influence pre- ! dominated.As the family name developed from Peter, as a Christian name, was one It It took the various forms of \"Bat- of the most popular throughout Eur-son \" \"Beatson,\u201d \"Bateson, \" \"Beaty- ope In the early days when the re eon\u2019\u2019\" etc\tligious authority of Rome was recog The droppings of the ending \u201cson\" nized universally In all lands, owing from \"Beattyflon\u201d left Beaty or Beatty to the prominence of St.Peter as the ind \"Bateson\u201d minus the \"on\" became chief of the apostles and the founder Bates.The variation Betson is due ;
