Twenty-six years ago an American
or Englishman, in Paris, could scarce
ly find a Frenchman who could talk
any language but his own, and travel
ers were equally restricted to one dia-
lect. The Paris shops were sealed
books in 1852 to English and Amer
leans, and a valet de place, or guide"
that could talk English, was as rare as
a silent monkey or a yellow crow. Now
all is changed. A trip to Europe is
cheaper than a journey to California.
You can 90 to Rome and back to
America for less than it will cost you
to live at an American watering place
the same length of time. The French
man acquires English, not nearly so
generally as the Americana does French,
but the two get on together very well ;
and every day practice is making both
more perfect. Every French shop,
almost, and all the best hotels, have
English attendants, and at the Expo
sition you are helped through by a
number Of good people who talk to
you and for you. English is the quick
silver that simpliies the polyglot mix
ture, for while the nan who knows
English tries to master German anC
French, the two latter grapple Englisl
at the same time. English is a part
ofpolite education in the best French
and German schools. How will it be
in twenty-five years, between now anC
the opening of the twentieth century {
The spread of the English language il
among the marvels Of the present
other tongues stay in schools and sec
tons, or grow in the soil where they
took root, dying out, as in America
where they were transplanted more
than a year ago. But the English il
the tongue that travels, and discover,
lights, controyerts and converts.

A poor Irishman at Rochester owed
a rich man some money, and was I'M
able to pay. The rich man obtained a
judgment and an execution, but there
was nothingo on which the sheriff could
levy. The Irishman had two largo
pigs, but the law allows a man two,
and the sheriff could not take them.
The rich man then bought two little
pigs, had them presented to the Irish
man, and thereupon took his two large
ones.
