due Largely 70 the simplicity Of ITS Gram.
mar and infections.
The rapid spread Of English Is
largely to be attributed to the sim.
plicity of its grammar which is less
complicated than that of any other
Western nation. Its marked poverty
OF infections, as distinguished, for
example, from the German, is great
point In its favor, and.thus IL Is much
easier for German to learn English
than for an Englishman or American
to learn German. On the other hand,
the extraordinary photographic in
consistency OF the language Is a de-
cided drawback, and there Is little
doubt that II English we're written
on phonetic principles, as Spanish or
German, its spread would be much
more rapid, to say nothing of the
great boon this would be to the
Anglo .Saxons themselves, who spend
years of unnecessary toll In learning
to read and write their own Ian.
guage.
1t Is not likely, however, that any
change will be made in this direction
in the near future. ut least IN Eng.
land, for the English as nation are
noted for their conservative habits,
and, although they recognize the
great advantages of q phonetic sys-
TEN, are in no hurry to adopt IL
Any change In this respect must
probably be looked for to America,
where q few innovations have been
already introduced. Thus, tho
spelling "vigor," flavor" "honor,"
ETC., are American innovations, as
are also 'plow," "traveler," 'cen.
ter" "theater," etc. Other more
recent forms, as program" and
'catalog," arc already we'll estab.
lished in America. but have found
little favor In England.
English speakers may be divided
into four great branches, as follows:
U) The European, (2) the American.
(3) the South African, and ~ the
Australasian. Each of these branches
has Its peculiarities, and the diver.
gcnce between the four Is becoming
more marked every year, OF the
extra. European branches, America,
although the Oldest, has divcrged
least from the parent system. 1t Is
surprising what q number OF Ameri.
can words have been introduced into
England, many Of which are now
considered indigenous to the soil. A
large proportion of the slang spoken
by the middle classes In England
may also be said to have an Ameri.
can origin. On the other hand, the
Americans have retained many good
old English words which have long
ago dropped out Of our homo vocabu

A Poser for the Lawyers.

John Doe owns a farm on the bank OF
the Niagara river. He has a fine pasture
along the river, and he makes an honest
penny now and then pasturing COWS for
his neighbors. Richard Roe has also a
license from him to hitch his rowboat
on the bank, with incidental right of in
gress and egress through the pasture.
About a week ago Richard lost his chain
and improvised a rope of hay with which
to moor his boat.
Now Ebenezer Dicks COW, pastured in
the lot aforesaid, is fond of hay, and
smelling the fragrance of the extempore
0 she waded into the river, climbed
into the boat, chewed up the rope, and
foated down the stream over the falls,
where she met an untimely death. The
boat was also pulverized en- route t.
Queenstown.
Has Ebenezer Dick any right of action
for the loss of his COW? If he has, Of
whom can he recover? Has Richard Roe
any remedy for the loss Of his boat, and
if so against whom?-Buffalo Courier.

why He Sent His Twin Sons to Different
Colleges.


A gentleman, in speaking Of MIR.
Evarts' career as a public man, said
that he had just heard a new story of
him, which was told at a dinner re-
Gently by Bishop Newman. When Mr..
Evarts was called to Washington by
President Hayes as secretary of state,
his predecessor, Secretary Fish, gave a
dinner in his honor. Mrs. Fish wa
seated at Nh. Evarts' right hand at the
table, a om who as dearly loved a
gentle jest as did Mr.. Evarts himself.
During a lull in the conversation Mrs.
Fish turned to Mr.. Evarts, speaking so
clearly as to be heard even at the foot
OF the table, and yet with gentle tones:
'Mr. Evart5, | understand that you
have sent two of your sons to college"
Eyes, that is so, Mrs. Fish. They
have entered college, and | presume
the time VIII seem long to them. al
though short to US, before they hear
the familiar admOnition as it was in
my college days: 'Juniores ad la
bOrcs.'"
They are twin brothers, are they
not, Mr.. Evarts?'
Yes. and they have been playmates
and schOOlmates until now"
But issit true that you sent one to
Harvard and the other to Yale. Mr..
Evarts, although you are a Yale grad
uate YOURSELF"
Yes, is it quite true"
Then | suppose you have done that,
Mr.. Evarts, SO that each of them can
take first hOnOrs."
Here Mr.. Evarts looked curiously at
Mrs. Fish for an instant, and then said,
speaking very earnestly, somewhat i'm
pressively: Mrs. Fish, you have di-
vined correctly"
An amused smile lighted up the
faces Of the guests. and Mr.. Fish, I'M
d~erstanding his successor well. and
that the jest had something Of founda-
ton in it, quickly changed the subject.
