..PERFECTLY LOVELY"

Even worse than a spirited bit, OF
slang with grain of sense to start is
this universally used and senseless
phrase. 1t is applied to anything and
everything. 1t seems to stand in
stead of ideas, of sentiment, of ap-
probation, and of common sense.
Go into the rooms Of the young la
dies in our colleges for women, where
you expect something better should
be heard. But listen The first words
that salute you are, "You are per-
fectly lovely to Gomez" and isn'tthe
day just lovely ~ and, '1ook at those
ferns and bright leaves on the wall
Aren't they perfectly lovely p"
With these young women every
thing that isn't perfectly "horrid'
and lawful is perfectly lovely,
from a statue of Venus to coffee, jel
| " or sausage, if it suits the appe
tite.

time glory Of that delightful place.
The phrase destroys conversation
more easily than series Of sickly
puns. 1t is an exyinguisher Of ideas.
1t certainly must eventually enfeeble
the minds of those who allow it to
express for themfall they feel.
Childrencatc it who can not speak
plain, and pronounce doll or play
thing 'perhy lubly."
Whenever / hear it, always want
to exclaim, "Oh, girls, do stop! Bet
ter take up the forcible language OF
youl brothers, than weaken all you
say by this meaningless, worn -ou t
sentence u.
Girls ought to be able to talk well
on current topics-books, new and
old, and all that interests their broth
ers. But do they show themselves
competent to carry on a converse
ton that will stimulate and refresh
those they meet ? Good takers never
fail to interest and to charm but
Young woman whose ideas are only
broad enough to be expressed in the
words lawful" "horrid," and per
fectly lovely" will hardly be classeo
as one of them.

and the growth over the Old cut was per-
haps two inches thick and covered with
natural bark. We do not remember hav-
ing seen such phenomenon before. AL
der aud maple stumps will sprout from
