A Vermont correspondent sug-
gests that the word fad" is not
modern, but is provincial English.
In the Warwick dialect the word
means "whim, and IN at least two
of the dialects the word "faddy" is
used, signifying frivolous" OF
whimsical. Another use of the
word is to describe person who is
difficult to please in trifes, and in
that connection appear the words Ito
fad, " meaning to be busy with trifes.
AS would appear from our CORE
spondent, the word has been in use
among the humber classes in Eng
land for some time. But how did
the word get into current converse
ton and writing both in this country
and in Englandl 1t seems to be com
paratively new. The Pail Mall Ga
zette seems to doubt whether the
English people are responsible for it,
and is at a loss to account for the
present common use of the word. II
newspapers are any index, the word
is more frequent in the east than the
west, in the city than the country,
in society" than business or among
students. Boston Journal.

Embaimlnx Fluids.

A Vienna chemist predicts that the
present methods of our tandermists
will soon be superseded by the use
of embalming fluids-mineral solu-
tions that can DO injected into the
veins of animals and birds (and even
into cellular tissue of plants, and by
hardening to the consistency of stone
give the impregnated object a fairly
natural appearance. Experiments
have much cheapened the prepara-
ton Of the fluids which embalmers
are using in many OF the larger
European cities, and petrihed mum
mics will soon be turned out at ten
70 twelve dollars apiece.-New York

We had been boys together IN Mus

TO admit the head, scoop out the in
side. cut a hole to see through, and
donning the pumpkin like helmet,
wade out into the pond. keeping the
body under water. The unsuspect-
ing ducks, seeing no danger in so
harmless thing as floating pump
kin, would remain quiescent till the
''heathen Chinee" could gather them
by the legs and yank them under
water.
With the divine faith of boyhood
we deemed the scheme practicable,
and as there were some pumpkins in

The "Greasors" of the Rio arande.

Inc UTeheoEB VI bhC hhtO UNShuOs
It is difficult for people living in
the eastern states to comprehend
how the condition of affairs on the
Rio Grande frontier could exist any
where within the confines of the
United States. The majority of
those who live along the Rio Grande
river, even on the Texas side, are
very different from any ether popu-
lation in this country. 1t is an over
tapping of Mexico into the United
States, and the people, though they
have beon American citizens for
more than forty years, are almost as
much an alien race as the Chinese,
and have shown no disposition to
amalgamate with the other Ameri-
cans They take no interest. in
American politics. In Mexican af-
fairs, however, they are deeply In
earnest, and especially is this so in
times of revolution and civil discord
south of the Rio Grande river.
Few of them speak English, and
the white people of Texas, New Mex
leo and Arizona along the border
contemptuorlsly call them "Greas
ers, and hold them in no higher es-
teem than they do Indians In 1880
there were 1000 of such people in
Texas, and, with the exception of
those about San Antonio, these
"Greasers" are herdsmen and small
farmers along the Rio Grande. They
hold life very cheap, and do not
count it a grievous crime to murder
either in private quarrel or public
brawl. -Harper's Weekly.
