TIE STUDY OF WORDS.


How TO Acquire and Retain Good yocab-
ulary.
Nothing is more fascinating than the
study of words; nothing more clearly
indicates the scholar as opposed to the
mere tyro than the nice and fastidious
use of these. In words we clothe our
thoughts. Eloquent, subtle, poetical,
or thrilling as these may be, they are
intangible and invisible until array ed
in language. Unspoken thoughts are
like sunborn children. They cannot
come into the world or on the scene Of
human action till they are born of the
spoken or the written word.
One way of acquiring good vocabu-
larry is, Of course, by habitually asso-
ciating with people who speak cor
rectly, and whose choice Of words is
careful and elegant To live with highly
educated and congenial people is in
itself n liberal education in this regard
One sometimes wonders at the singu-
lar lapses into slovenly and illiterate
blunders conspicuous In men and wo-
men who SHOULD know better" True,
they should, and probably do know
better, but In daily practice few people
rise very much above the ordinary level
Of those with whom they always con-
verse;, A city-bred girl went to live In
q part of the country where provincial
isms are the current coin of daily talk
Returning a Few years later to her
home. no one would have supposed her
to be the same person, so many queer
little phrases and downright forms Of
speech, inelegant and lacking in good
form, had she, a very susceptible person,
picked up and adopted.
II we wish our daughter to be pro-
ficient in music we take her TO hear the
most renowned artists Technique
may be acquired by constant practice
under the best instructors, but she can
gain feeling, appreciation of color and
phrasing, sincere and genuine culture
in music only by hearing it rendered
well; and this Is true of both vocal and
instrumental performance. So it is
true that good vocabulary is greatly
augmented by habitually listening to
eloquent and beautiful speech, to the
polished diction of the pulpit, to the
rounded and rhythmic sentences of
prayer and praise. The young person
who always goes to church will gain
something not included in our usual
thought of church-going-a larger and
more facile vocabulary.
For two years." said student OF
French, Il heard no English that
could help / attended French
church; l went wherever French was
spoken, in public and in private; lived
In French atmosphere"
This is equally true Of English. A
vocabulary Is not gained in day or a
week. 1t is the slow accretion of
many days, the development Of many
weeks.--Hsyper's Bazaar.
