France.

During the past few days matters
seem to be arriving at a climax In
unhappy France. There are strong
grounds for belief In the existence OF a
hidden but serious trouble for the gov.
ernment: hints of coup d etat IN the
interest of some one who will probably
assume the role of military dictator
presumably to be followed by the
stronger government of king or en-
peror. If France today possessed among
her monarchists or Bourbons, Napo
leon or Charles X the existing regime
would not survive twenty'four hours
All France is disheartened and all OF
crowned Europe would & ladly see the
republic failure.
Strong measures are being taken to
prevent a revolution from securing
Roadway and the very strongest will
in the Judgment of many, be required
should an organized attempt against
the republic be made by men who in
any degree possess the esteem and con-
fidence of the nation.

PLAIN WORDS WE'LL HANDLED.


The Secret Of thc Greatest Successes In
Literature.
Nothing is more astonishing In lit
erature than the meager variety of
words to be found in the productions
of great writer's The same words re-
cur tine and again in Shakespeare.
His noble,t flights Of fancy and his
finest outbre aks of passion are ex-
pressed in simple terms that are daily
in use in every INTEL gent American
household. Addison, prince Of
writer's of graceful prose English. en-
ploys few words that the average
school child does not understand and
cannot define. The simplicity of lam
guage in the "Pilgrim's Progress" Is
ptoverDial, yet IL is sufficient to por-
tray emotions ranging from the ago
MES OF iemorse to the raptures OF the
redeemed. The phraseology Of Swift
and Goldsmith, except when tech
meal subjects are under discuss on, Is
almost as limited. The Bible Is largely
n repetition of a few simple words.
Mastery of language consists in the
proper arrangement of words rather
than multiplicity of words. The
use OF simple terms is evidence of the
highest art 1t Is the sole way, in
deed, as q rule. in which the tirmest
and widest expressions can be made.
To attain such command of speech
depends in large measure upon the
possession of imaginative faculties.
Metaphor is frequently a substitute,
not only for large words, but for many
words. 1t suggests rather than de-
picts, and from its peculiar measure
makes necessary the employment of
terms that are readily understood.
1t should not be forgotten, also, that
there are few pursuits that require q
varied vocabulary. Many OF the tech
nical terms used by lawyer are of
little practical worth to physician,
or merchant and vice versa. 1t is
questionable also If the English Ian
guage is not worse for the multitude
Of unnecessary adjectives that have
crcpt into it from one source to an-
other. 'Junius" looked upon adjec-
tives as il they were personal enemies.
Macaulay used them under protest.

lar observation of Thomas Hobbies
