.-r' ' Cuba's Sugar Wealth As we ruefully pay the prevailing high prices for sugar, and wonder whether the continuation of the government's effort to check profiteering will reduce the burden, we may find some interest in the other side of the picture. When sugar is produced in inflated times like

these, someone must be happy, "we naturally may prices and conditions.

conclude. Ample confirmation is found in an editorial from . one of the leading papers of Havana, which gives us this information: ? Cuba will sell Its current crop of sugar to us at eleven cents a pound. This will bring to Cuba nearly one billion dollars, which amounts to more than three hundred dollars for each man, woman and child included in Cuba's population of three millions. The editorial proceeds to dilate on the advantages sure to come from this great flood of wealth. Cuba's spenders will no doubt have a glorious joy-ride, and new millionaires will be plentiful. We can limit the profits that our own people make from sugar, but we cannot very well prevent the Cubans from getting inordinate prices. As long as demand exceeds supply, the world must pay profiteers. When supply catches up, then we may see daylight again. Then, and not until then, will we turn the corner toward normal

"What's in a Name?"

Facta about roar name: Its history! its meaning-; whenoe It was domed: its significance; your lucky day and lucky jewel. : BY MILDRED MARSHALL

j (Copyright, 1919, by The Yheeler Syndicate. Inc.) 3M EFFIE i' ' From the quaint old-fashioned Eufchemla, so rarely heard In these days, comes the popular name of Effie. It 1 not a diminutive as Is generally supposed, but a full-fledged name with an Interesting history. Originally Euphemia meant both fair speech and abstinence from the reverse, so that tfrom an Ironical standpoint it signified silence, and was applied to the stillness that prevailed during rettigious rites. f The first Euphemla who gave vogue Rp the name was a virgin martyr of fBlthynia, whose legend of constancy (made her popular in both the East and

'the West. Russia called her JevfimiHa: she was Jema in Servia, and Bema land Dimmie in other lands. Scotland however, adopted the name and straightway called her Effie. Phomie was also Scottish but did not attain the popularity of the former. 1 However, neither Effie nor Phomie, ,which have been prevalent since those 'early times, can ever be forgotten because of the finest works of Sir Walter Scott. Heroines of fiction, written by the masters of literature, find their names as immortalized as heroines of history and Effie is no exception to this general rule. It was once thought that the Scottish name Euphame was one of the Greek names brought from Hungary by Queen Margaret. Others believed that It came from the Keltic Aoiffe which was fostered so many of our presentday feminine names. Indeed, those so inclined may take their choice of possible sources, though general credence is more often given. to the first derivation, since it concerns a reUgeuse and in olden days, it would teem that being martyred was all that was needed to perpetuate one's name through the centuries. In the Scottish Highlands. Effie is

Well Known Citizen Tells of Remarkable Change in His Condition "I'm a Well

Man Now' He Says. ! "I have Just finished my second boti tie of Tanlac, and have actually .gained Ken pounds in weight," said A. C. WeyJtmrn. of Atlanta. Ga., recently. ! Mr. Weyburn is one of the oldest

and best known piano men in that city, having been connected with the

Cable Piano Company, 81 North Broad street, for the Dast seventeen vt-am

He is a fine genial gentleman of the

old school, and is highly esteemed and respected by all who know him. In

telling the Tanlac representative of

his remarkable restoration to health,

Mr. weyDurn said:

For the past two years or more I have not been in very good health. I have not been 6ick exactly, but have been all out of shape and Krad-

rnally going down hill. I was all run

down, intensely nervou3 and In a

general debilitated condition. "I felt tired and worn out most of .the timo and by 10 o'clock in the niornilng I would feel I would not be able to 'get through my day's work. My di

gestion was poor " and I was always

bilious and constipated. I was also restless at night, and rolled and tossed without much real sleep, and would get up In the morning almost as tired

i as when I went to bed the night before. In fact, I was Just about as badly run down as a man could get and keep on bis feet. I had no appetite scarcely, and was getting thinner and weaker all tho time. "This is Just the condition I was in when I first heard of Tanlac. After taking about one-half of a bottle of this medicine, I began to notice a great improvement In my condition. My appetite returned and I began to sleep better, and when I would get up In the morning I could go about my work with a vim and energy I bad not had in months. . "I can now do a hard day's work without feeling tire dout all the time; in fact, every organ of my body seems to ho in fine shape, and I am a well man, "Tanlac Is certainly a wonderful

medicine, and I tell my friends about It all the time. Since seeing what It has done for me, several of my neighbors bavo commenced taking It, and everybody Out our way is talking Shout It'1 Tanlac Is Bold In Richmond by Clem ThlsUethwaito; In Grcensfork by C. b. Corlnei in Cambridge City by Mr.

called Oighrigb, a name which seems to have no derivation whatever. The Church of Santa Eufemla at Rome gives title to a cardinal and through it, the name has spread in popularity in Italy and France. Effie's stone is the topaz, which has the power of the sun to put to flight all evil and dark forebodings, but it must be set In gold to accomplish Us purpose. It promises that no harm shall befall its wearer. Tuesday is her lucky day; 2 her lucky number, and the chrysanthemum is her flower.

Dinner Stories

One hot day in summer a grave-digger was very busy, so he sent his halfwitted son to the "pub" for some refreshments and told him to tell the publican that he would pay him when he got finished. When the boy came back he was empty handed.

The father asked him why he did not get the refreshments. The boy said: "Because he chased

me when I told him that you would

pay him when you come out of the grave." She was a very society-bred spinster of fifty-odd years and she was reproving her nineteen-year-old niece for not showing any more Interest in society than she did. In ending her argument

she said, "Why, my dear, when I was your age I was the belle of seven counties." The niece was provoked. "That may 13 so, auntie," she admitted dryly, "but I see that no young man took the

trouble to ring the bell."

Good Evening BY ROY K. MOULTON

Dug Purdy has sent In the following effusion, which deserves a space in somebody's anthology:

A maiden stood upon the porch, the clock was striking nine, When down the street there came a , lad who sauntered up the line. Ha told her he was lonesome, and he asked her If she'd wed. 8he listened very calmly to the things the young man said. And as he vowed his love was like a v lurid, flaming torch. She said: "Doggone you. Harry," and knocked him off the porch. One of the hardest things about beinga regular reader of the "Satevepos" is carrying the blamed thing home.

When a man tosses bis hat into the presidential ring these days he needs to Have bis initials in it to get It back. A photographer who can't make a homely woman look beautiful might

just as well get a good job driving a back or working on the section.

As for "The Pour Horsemen, .we

have read two of them and hope to

complete the other two by the new

year.

If nobody else seeks the Republican

nomination for President, It looks as though Leonard Wood.

One of the most unfortunate men we

know Is Mr. Berger, of Fordham, who

advertises In the papers that he has

lost a gentleman's handbag containing two pounds of sugar.
