maddeningly beautiful. They are a mix
ture Of the French gentry and the old
Italian nobility, and inherit the vivacity
OF one country and the voluptuous, half
oriental beauty OF the other. II you want

A Linguistic Menagerie.

Let US take turn with the animals
and insects of metaphor. The Scotch
have saying, "You have bee in your
bonnet" The meaning is that the head
had new idea or fancy that is for the
time paramount. Your head is full of
bees" is an old-time phrase meaning
that dreamy theories have taken pos
session of the brain. The connection
between bees aud the soul was once
generally maintained; hence Mahomet
admits bees to paradise. The moon was
called 'bee" by the priestesses of
Ceres, and the word lunatic, or moon
struck, still means one with "bees in
his head"
"Ahe wolf at the door" is a common
expression in all countries, and we say
of ravenous eater. "he has a wolf IN
his stomach" 1t implies hunger, Starva-
ton. 1t is said that there are people
who use the term literally to brighten
their young children into habits of in
dustry and economy, so that the fright
full wolf of hunger may never appear at
their doors.
"a frog in the throat is a common,
expression referring to a husky speaker.
Il smell rat" has long been a popu-
lar saying when some mystery has been
discovered or hidden clue found. 1t
was an Irish barriSter who got off the
mixed metaphor: 81 smell rat, l see
him waving in the air, but if we are
careful we shall nip him in the bud.''
