How a Love-Lorn Youth Was Affected by

Upon His Lady-Love.
The handsome young lady and the
awkward man of pretended sentimen,

A Display of Eastern Costumes-How the
Queen Was Arrayed.
The Queen was late in entering the
Throne Room last Wednesday, it being
nearly 1920 before the royal party came
in. Her Majesty only staid for thirty

had received the respects of the Diplo-
matte Corps and some of the entire
people, leaving the remainder of the
company to pay their courtesies to the
Princess of Wales. There was a yerv

II II DISEASE.
A Misuscd Aspirate IN England-Hateflu
Features of the Cockney Dialect,

A Misuscd Aspirate IN England-Hateflu
Features of The Cockney Dialect.
There seems no room for doubling
that the h disease had its origin in Lon1
don. Walker speaks Of it as specially
prevalent in London in his day, and
even now it is more common in the
pure cockney dialect (the most hateful
form of the English language in exist
ence) than anywhere in England.
Moreover, its prevalencein other places
than London is greater or less accord
ing as such places are nearer to or far
Their from the metropolis. We find mol
trace Of it in Cornwall or Wales; verv
little in Cumberland, Northumberland
and Yorkshire. In the midland coun-
ties it is less common than in the south
ern. 1t is at its maximum in the heart
of London. In this respect it is like
the v-and-w malady, which, even when
at its height Git has now nearly died
out), was v SO badly felt in the
provinces as in the metropolis; though,
of course, like all metropolitan defects,
it spreads in greater OF less degree over
the whole country.
This being the case, we are justified
in assuming that the disease had at first
that form which is characteristic Of
the faults of language found at
great ccnters of population.
and especially in the chief
city of the nation. If you wish to hear
French clipped and slurred you should
go to Paris, and German suffers like

the same with English in London. IN
a great and busy city men shorten theif
words and sentences as much as possi1
BILE, being assured that what they say
Will be understood, because all SPEAK
the same language and adopt the same

as in Paris cette femme becomes cue
me, and VOLTA ce qwe c'est becomes
p'Ia C. q c'est, so in London City Bank
becomes CITY BAR; h~aLpenny is
abridged first to Ao'.penny, and then to

into '6us; every one in it addresses tue
conductor as ductor; the conductor
shortens the cry of all right into rt

be laid down as a general proposition
that. although a language becomes

colonies, it is only in busy cities, and
chiefly in capital cities, that a Language

A natty and artistic
Little hat;
Its 1ower-works of art
Will make the maiden's heart
Go. though she's pessimistic,
Pit-a-pat.
A bird as black as night
Peeps through the roses bright
With optics small and jetty
In his head.
On one side it's turned up,
just like a lily-cup;
It's pretty, very prettyd
Be it said.
But while 1 see it here,
Waiting for some pretty, dear
And enhancing little creatures
Golden head,
Ifeel my gold and flee,
While l murmur joyously,
With a smile upon my features:
I'm unwed!"

TWO GREAT MEN.
Pen Portraits of "Co1onep' Lamont and MIR.
| President Cleveland.

Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Colonel Lamont is much younger man than
he looks. He is about five feet eight inches high,
Of rather spare figure that makes him look
smaller, but carries above the slender neck u
head that would attract attention and something
of surprise anywhere you would meet him. The
face is clear cut square at the angles of the chin
and thin in jaw, while above the large, broad-set
gray eyes over a thin, long nose, the head widens
until. Its greatest diameter it seems built for a
man of twice his stature. Viewed from the
side, the head retreats rapidly from short dis
lance above the eyes until it reaches point
nearly in a line above the ears, and then rounds
in q great dome to the back. Looking at this
man with his thin, light brown mustache and
spare hair, and then gancing but a moment at
the chief he has served so we'll and faithfully,
the observer is apt to conclude that the lesser is
really the greater man.
The Presdent-eect is very disappointing in
appearance. Few here have ever seen him, and
none know him well. He is about FIVE feet
eight inches tall, but is broad all over from
crown of the head to sole of foot. His head is
wide and fat from the chin above, heavy fat
neck clear over the top to the nape of the neck,
and as he sits with his chin dropped while listen
ing stolidly to visitor his jowl projects, in fact
folds much beyond the jaw and around under
the rather small ears. He must surely measure
almost in girth as much as he does in height
while mis- shoulders and chest are broad and
deep enough for those of Atlas His arms and
legs are large, and the hands, while rather
small are too we'll supplied with flesh.

upwards of $4,000. that sum being repre-
senated by the difference in price paid

days they were purchased. No charge of Grim
inality is alleged, but it is said resolution
will be introduced in the House in a few
days asking that the matter be investigated,
and that the Encouragement be directed to

covery of the difference between the
