Tho Title ofKinr

The title of king is a shortened form of
the Saxon "cying," which can be traced
back to the Sanskrit ''ganaka, father.
This word "ganaka" is used with the
meaning of king in the Rig Veda, the
most ancient part of the sacred books of
the Hindoos. The age of the Rig Veda is
not known with certainty, but it can hard
ly be less than 5000 years, and it may be
1000 years.
The father came to be called the king be-
cause in the process of social organization
the family existed before the state, and
the term was extended step by step from
the family to the tribe, and from the tribe
to the nation. Another name for king
found in the Rig Veda is rag" 1t means
a leader or perhaps steersman. 1t appears
In the Latin trek" and has thence de-
scended to the French "roi" and to the
Italian and Spanish IRE. "-Pittsburg Dis

Dressing tho shopkeeper.

A gentleman dressed in loose coat en-
tered ladies' Quitting establishment at
time when the proprietor was alone in
the shop. The gentleman asked to be
shown some ready made ladies' cloaks, as
he wished to give his wife little surprise.
After careful inspection he fixed upon
one and asked the shopkeeper:
Have you not young lady at hand to
put on the cloak to see how it looks?"
The proprietor regretted that none of the
ladies of the establishment was in at that
moment
"Well, perhaps you wouldn't object to
putting it on yourself?'
The unsuspecting shopkeeper slipped on
the cloak, buttoned it and turned round
in all directions.
Magnificent" exclaimed the purchaser,
with seeming ecstasy, but at the same
moment he made grab at the till, which
he thrust under his coat and bolted out of
the shop.
The Mortified proprietor rushed after
him into the street, where, however, he
was seized by the passersby, who dragged
him back to the shop in the superstition
that the poor fellow had gone mad, and
before he could explain matters the rogue
had disappeared. Tit-Bits.

a combined Psi U and Alpha Delt pin,
made very small, and set with emeralds
and rubies. The Alpha Delt star and cres-
cent cut right into the Psi U diamond,
the star setting in the diamond. It was
very small, and beautiful piece of work.
My theory of it was that probably two col
lege boys, Psi U and an Alpha Delt, got
stuck on the same girl, and she wouldn't
wear the pin of either of 'em, not wantin
to show favor, SO they had a combination
pin made. That's the only theory / can

of the earth's surface. DIR. Cancani has re-
Gently added to the seismograph contriv-
ance by means of which every earthquake
shock makes, together with the telltale
drawing of its own oscillations, photo
graph OF the face of chronometer, there
by recording its exact time of occurrence.
This is effected with the aid of an in
candescent electric lamp, connected with
a circuit which is only closed when a shock
affecting the seismograph causes lever
to form the electric connection. The face
of the chronometer is thus brilliantly illu-
minated for the fraction of second,
and the position of its hands is photo
graphed upon sensitive plate exposed for
the purpose. The instant the shock is
over the instrument automatically adjusts
itself in readiness for the next disturb
ance.

doubt that our ancient mother will have

ton when the twentieth century, too, hears

How Earthquakes Record Time.

Man long ago found out that in order
to get at many of natures secrets he must
contrive some plan of watching her at
work while he himself slept or was busy
with other occupations. The numerous
automatic instruments that we now pos
sess, such as thermometers that register
with pen the variations of temperature,
without interruption by day or night, have
been invented to supply this want of q
sleepless eye in the service of science.
Among the latest of these inventions is
one devised in Italy to make earthquakes
and earth tremors record, in clock time,
the instant Of their own occurrence.
A seismograph is an instrument in

tain words were used with a special aim,
and the pope always expected that these
words should be retained IN the completed
amplifcation of the letter. On one occa-
sion the completed document had been
handed to him, and reading it he missed
one of these selected words. The secreta-
ry was called and asked what had become
of the word referred to. His answer was
that he had employed word which he
thought better fitted for the sentence
The pope administered very severe re-
proof to the secretary informing him that
the missing word had been selected after
very serious thought, and on no account
should it be omitted.
In the early years of his pontificate,
also, Leo XIII was given to writing far
into the night, and remember hearing
one day that at @ o'clock that morning he
was found asleep with his head on the
desk and pen in his hand after writing
the whole night through.
At 10 in the evening he recites the ro-
sary with Mgr. Marzolini, one of his sec
retaries and pontifical master of ceremo-
MES, whom he knew as very young boy
in Perugia, and who attended the semina-
ry in that diocese when Leo was archbish-
op. Between 1920 and II the pope re-
