!, LEGS AND LIMBS.

The editor Of Life Illustrated tells the fol-
lowing incident:
A little girl at school read thus: ,sThe Wild
ow lived on a small iiE,bacy left her by relI-
tive" ssWbat did yen callthat word - asked
tile acher; s.the word is Legacy, not hmtaey.''
'.But Miss Johnson, said the little girl, '.Pa
says mus. say tigt, not leg"
The little girl, says the Lancaster Inian4
Daily, was right. There are no legs now a.
days-they are only limos, By-and-by it will
not be polite To say arm, and we shall have 10
call that s'limb," too, we suppose. And
the next thing We shall know there will be no
such things as eyes and noses: they will be
merely ssorgans.' We shall have no hands
or fee., but they will be simply ''mcmbers, :"
when this refined system of nomenclature
reaches its climax. AS for ourselves, are
so old fashioned that we like to hear things
called by their proper names, and We shall
stand mp for legs as long as we have legs to
stssd upon. We cIn see nothing vulgar, in
that word, but there is something decidedly
so in the squeaniishncss which avoids its use
and substitutes in its stead the awkward and
indefinite word climb"
