It is absolutely bound up with history and romance, being derived from the two Teutonic words, "Regin" (Judgment), and Wald (Power), which also give us the familiar Reginald Southern coun- tries found it easier to drop the "w, making Reginwald into Re. ginald. Regin very soon again be- came Ren, or Ron, and we obtain Renald and Ronald. This latter is the Scottish contraction. The direct source of Bonald is undoubt- edly the name Rognvald, which is "borne by a famous Jari-of-the-Ork- neys.

WORLD OF LIFE IN A SALTSPOON,
Go out into your garden and look at the flower-bed. How still and sent the mould seems! Yet do you know that if you took a saltapoon- ful of the soil thora would be in it. probably a thousand million living. Creatures!
Sir John Russel, the director of the Rothamstead Experimental Station, where the soil is carefully studied, tells us that men of science
used to think there were. 10,000,000 living creatures in a saltapoonfü
of soil.
Than they come to the conclusio that there must be 50,000,000, an now they find that it is more lik 600,000,000 to 1,000,000,000.
