A Few Verbal Errors.

The following examples of the more COM
mon errors in the use of words are taken
from "The Verbalist," by Mr.. Alfred
Ayres:
Accord. for give: as 'the information
was accorded him."
Aggravate, for irritate; to aggravate is to
make worse.
Allude to, for refer to or mention.
AS. for that; mot as know" for mo.
TINT know"
Avocation, for vocation; mans vocation
is his business; avocations are things that
occupy him incidentally.
Balance, for rest or remainder.
Character, for reputation; one may have
good reputation, but q bad character, and
the two words should never be con-
founded.
Dangerous, for in danger: sick man is
sometimes most absurdly said to be danger
Gus, when it is only meant that the poor
fellow is himself in danger-a very different
thing.
Demean for debase, disgrace, or humble.
To demean ones self is merely to behave
ones self, whether ill or we'll.
Dirt, for earth or loan.
Donate, for give.
Execute, for hang, as applied to the GRIM
nal. It is the sentence, not the man, that
is executed.
Healthy, for wholesome; an onion plant
may be healthy, but when you pick anton
there is no more healthiness or unhealthi-
ness to that, although itmay 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 DIETER Silly
trousers.
Partake, for eat.
Plenty as an adjective, where plentiful is
meant.
Real, for very; as real nice" "real pretty. I"
Reside. for live; residence, for house.
Retire, for 60 to bed.
Seldom, or ever, for seldom if ever, or
seldom or never.
Some, for somewhat: "she is some better
to-day"
Stop, for stay; "where are you stopping
This is one Of the vilest of Briticisms.
Summons (the noun), for summons (the
verb).
Those kind of apples, for that kind.
Transpire, for occur.
Vulgar, for immodest or indecent.
Without. for unless.
The pioneer express. [volume] (Pembina, Dakota [N.D.]) 1883-1928, 1883-10-12

Official inquiry has now apparently
we'll established that one hundred thous-
and lives were lost by the recent earth
quake and volcanic eruptions in Java
History does not record an equally cal
amitous CONFUSION of nature. The
earthquake of Lisbon on November 1,
1855, caused the death of thirty thous-
and persons; and the great earthquake
that occurred in Sicily in 1893 killed jus
double that number. Another formidt
able earthquake was that of Riobamba
in 1897, which swallowed up fully forty
thousand human beings, and the NOR.
tally resulting from the two shocks in
Calabria in 1873 was exceedingly great
though there seems some doubt about
the exact figures. The most formidable
volcanic eruptions alone, mentioned in
history, as beyond all doubt the great
eruption of Yes ,vius described by
