Having fingered to the last allowable
moment with the members of my family
"hereinbefore mentioned"-as the legal
documents would term them-Git was at
ter 10 O'Clock at night when returned to
headquarters for final instructions, and
before going to the Generals room 1 ord
cred two whisky toddies to be brought
up after me. When they appeared 1
offered one OF the glasses to Jackson, but
he drew back, saying:
..NO. no, Colonel, you must excuse me;
never Crlnk intoxicating liquors."
- know that, General" said 1, "but
though you habitually abstain, as l do N.Y.
self, from everything OF the sort, there are
occasions, and this is one of them, when
a stimulant will do us both good; other
wise | would neither take it myself nor
offer it TO you. So you must make an
exception to your general rule and join
me in a toddy tonight"
He again shook his head, but neYerthe-
less took the tumbler and began to sip
its contents. Presently putting it on the
table after having but partly emptied it,
he said:
"Colonel, do you know why habit.
ually abstain from Intoxicating drinks ?'i
And on my replying in the negative, he
continued:
''Why, sir, because 1 like the taste Of
them, and when discovered that to BIZ
the case 1 made up my mind at once to dc
without them altogether"

Verbal Errors TO be Guarded
Against.

Tine following examples of the
more common errors in the use of
words are taken from "The Verbal
ist," by Mr.. Alfred Ayres:
Accord for give; as "the informa-
ton was accorded him."
Aggravate for irritate; aggravate
is to make worse.
Allude to for refer to or mention.
AS for that; mot as i know" for
"not that l know"
Avocation for vocation; u mans
vocation is his business avocations
are things that occupy him incident
ally.
Balance, for rest or remainder.
Character for reputation; one
may have good reputation, but a
bad character, and the two words
should never be COMPOUNDED.
Dangerous, for in danger; sick
man is sometimes most absurdly
said to be dangerous, when it is
only meant that the poor fellow is
in danger himself-a very different
thing.
Demean, for debase, disgrace or
humble. TO demean ones self Is
merely to behave ones self whether
well or ill.
Dirt, for earth or loan.
Donate, for give.
Execute, for hang, as applied to
the criminal. tbs the sentence, not
| the man, that is executed.

pick an onion there is no more
I healthiness or unhealthiness TO that,
I although it may or may not be
| wholesome as an article of food.
lily, for i'll.
| Inaugurate, for begin.
Kids, for kid gloves.
Learn, for teach.
Liable, for likely or apt.
Loan, for lend.
Pants, for pantaloons, or, better
still, trousers.
| Partake, for eat.
Plenty, as an adjective, when plen-
tiful is meant.
Real, for very; as "rcal NICE"
"real pretty"
Reside, for live; residence, for
house.
Retire, for go to bed.
Seldom or ever, for seldom if ever,
or seldom or never.
Some, for somewhat 4" she is some
better to-day"
Stop, for stay; "where are you
stoppingr This is one of the vilest
of witticIsms
Summons (the noun), for snm-
mons (the verb).
Those kind of apples, for that
kind.
Transpire, for occur.
| Vulgar, for immodest or indecent
