THXB is one of the oldest of Eng- lish surnames, being derived from the word “ceapman,” meaning a trader. The earliest ancestors of the family were engaged in mercantile pursuits, which no doubt had some bearing on the adoption of the sur- name. The Chapmans of England were among the most eminent families for many generations. Many early bear- ers of the name achleved distinction in Scotland and Ireland, as well as in their native England. One of the Elizabethan poets was George Chap- man. During the early part of the sev- enteenth century a score or more of the Chapman family came to America and became “founders” of the name in this country. Most of those who settled in New England came from Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, where the family was seated for a long period. The coat of arms here given is accredited to the Chapmans of York- shire, located near the town of Hull. Representatives from the family in the New England States were Robert Chapman, who settled in Saybrook, Conn., about 1635, and Edward, who 6 $M arrived in Boston in 1639. Edward was in Ipswich in 1642 and later moved in Rowley, Mass, (Copyright. 1915 SWARM! SWAT!! ONE FLY!!! SO WHAT???

BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. _ AVE you found the unfailing identifying marks of the aro- natic sassafras? Here they are right before you, ‘the three different types of leaves on the same branch. Ye- will come across these lovzly tree neighbors in Southern Vermont and west through Michigan to Iowa and Kansas, south to Florida and Texas. In the rich, sandy loan, which is always to be found in the peaty swamps and woodlands, the sassafras trees grow 30 to 50 feet high; in the North as high as 10~ feet, with a trunk 6 to 7 feet in diameter. ‘The roots go deep and send up many fleshy and aromatic suckers. In the olden days sassafras tea was brewed in the Spring and copious doses were given to every member of the family to purify their blood. The bark is thick and dark brown and is always spicy and aromatic. You can distinguish the bark by the shallow fissures of broad, flat ridges. ‘The oil of the bark is used to flavor medicines. The twigs are smooth and green, having a very tasty, gummy substance, pleasant to chew and, in fact, said t be very acceptable to all nature trailers. They break off small branches for this purpose, storing them in their pockets. Water is not always handy on a long trail and the sassafras “gum” keeps you from getting too thirsty. As far as the wood is concerned, it does not rank very high for lumber. It is rather brittle, soft, weak and coarse. But it is durable in soil and has been used successfully for posts and rails, boats and also for ox yokes T GREATEST TRAVEL BARGAIN = TO PACIFIC NORTHWEST CITIES. 5t Also_free pillows for num Drinking cups free.

You will be de- lighted with the lovely contrast the deep biue berries make on their scar- let stems against the beautiful Au- tumn foliage. ‘Whatever you do when you are glose to a sassafras tree, look among the lcaves for the giant caterpillar with the cyclopean black eye. This eye is a bluff and intended to frighten the | greedy birds that love to gobble up nice, juicy caterpillars. Perhaps you will make your visit the day the portly one has spun his soft silk rug and is slowly changing into & mummylike creature. Or you may be a day late and find it silent and still, resting as it transforms into a handsome butterfly, for the beau- tiful swallowtail butterfly can be seen creeping from this odd-looking chrysalis.

Philippic. I'r IS not often that philippic gets into the newspapers. Who knows, however, but that events are shap- ing toward an ever - widening cur- rency of this word, which is derived from a Greek root meaning literally belonging to Philip. (Phiiip, incident- ally, means fond of horses!) In its ordinary usage a philippic is a denunciatory address, an im- passioned appeal, a discourse charged with emotional dynamite calculated to | cause its hearers to explode in indig- nation over a particular situation. It is usually directed against a certain individual. Philippic has an honorable pedi- gree. It was first applied to the declamations of Demosthenes, famous | Greek orator, who swayed audiences | three centuries before the birth of | Christ. In these verbal lashings Demos- thenes attacked unmercifully Philip of Macedon, father of Alexander the Great, for his land lust and his iron rule. The Greeks, who were at that time divided into a number of small independent jealous states, were urged by Demosthenes, in words which burn to this day, to unite against the com- mon enemy.
