We are not only getting into the habit OF

French phrases into our English. For In
stance, there is scarcely paper L take up
which does not inform us that something has
been ''detinitively arranged"-meaning, OF
course, definitely" or FINALLY" settled; or
that something goes without saying"-where
it goes we are not told.
We now never say anything-we intimate
it. Mr.. Black boldly says to Smith at sup
per, ''If you say that again I'll knock you
down" But the newspapers report that he
iutimated an intention TO PROSTATE his oppo-
nent. Black also adds that Smith is black
guard and rascal. Smith S friends say that
"Black alluded to him as not being honorable
in his conduct" Brown, wishing to know
who began this, asks, "By whom was this
initiatedsn Smiths friend replies that it was
initiated by Black. and that the controversy
lasted the balance of the night, and was then
deinitively settled by an apology. Brown
then asks where the parties are stopping"
nov-neaning to ask where the two persons
are staying, for nobody stays in a place. he
''stops'-and Smiths friend ''intimates' that
il has ''transpired" that they are in Green 5
hotel, and that Smith has extended an invi-
tation" to Black to dinner, and that thus the
difficulty has been definitively arranged. y

The Moving Rock.

In one of the Twin lakes, few miles east
of Lakeville, is a rock known as "Movino
Rock 1t is close in shore, in about four
of water, and rushes grow up all around 1t.
Fifteen years ago this rock was far out in the
lake. and in size was nearly ten times what it
is today 1t was noticed one spring fourteen
wears ago that there was more Of the rock out
of the water than usual, and some of the in
uuisitive fishermen who then frequented tho
lake tried to find the cause. They looked
down into the water and they could easily sec
the bottom. They also saw, much to their
astonishment, that there was deep furrow
in the yellow clay, and that In length 1t was
nearly ten feet The rock seemed smooth and
nard The next spring it had moved nearly
fifteen feet more toward the shore, and the
furrow was plainly outlined Then some one
called the great bowlder Moving Rock, and
the name has been associated with the curl
osities of the lake ever since. And each
spring since that time finds the rock closer to
the edge Of the lake than it was twelve
months before. 1t is quite small now, but
bears all the evidences of the action OF the
elements. 1t is porous in places, and TO this
fact some attribute its remarkable travels.
The general opinion among the natives Is that
the ice, when it breaks up each spring, is
piled il tons upon the rock by the north
winds, which have a clean sweep over the
lake and thus the rock is driven closer and
closer in toward the bank.-Boston Tran

Notified by Dreams.

On a moonlight night in July Farmer
Gideon A Pomeroy, of Silver lake, Susque-
hanna county, dreamed that couple of dogs
were slaughtering his flock of sheep in the
pasture on the hillside. He awoke suddenly
from his dream just as the kitchen clock
struck /, and in a few minutes he went to
sleep again. Again he dreamed that dogs
were killing bis sheep, and the dream was so
clear and vivid that he couldn't think of any
thing else. 1t seemed to him as though he
had slept for two or three hours between the
two dreams, but in reality only twenty min
utes had passed since ne first awoke, as he
found when he got up and looked at the clock
Pomeroy said that dreaming this same
thing twice in so short time was such queer
thing that he nudged lis wife and told her
about it, Mrs. Pomeroy is a firm believer in
dreams and she told her husband that she
was sure that dogs were after their sheep at
that very moment Mr.. Pomeroy dressed
himself and hurried up to the pasture to see If
the sheep were all right. He found things
just as his dream had pictured them. In the
moonlight he saw two large dogs chasing the
frightened flock from one end of the pasture
to the other. The painting brutes didn't bark
once as they ran down the hindmost sheep
and bit them in the throat, working together
with the agility and ferocity of wolves
Farmer Pomeroy dubbed one of the dogs to
death, and the other one ran away and dis
appeared in piece of woodland. He had
never seen the dogs before, and he has not
found out who owned them Five of his
lambs bled to death from bites in the throat,
and two more were bitten SO badly that he
had to kill them. Since then Farmer Pom
eroy has kept his flock in the barnyard every
