AMERICAN DIALECTS.

From the New York sun.
To the Editor Of The SUn-SIR:
have read your recent editorial on
the work of the American Dialect
Society, and it has occurred to m,
that | may be able to make a contri-
button in that line via the sun. |
have spent a portion Of my life in
one of those ''remote localities
where the new things are slow to
come, and where language il not
changed much by the dictionaries.
Some of these words and expressions
may he fairly well known through
the efforts of the dialect story
writer, but others | think are very
little known, The locality is that
part of Kentucky between the moun
tains and the Ohio river, and the
natives are generally known as red
brush.n
a remember when at school in
a log schoolhouse, the greatest in
suit that could be brought upon Us
was to have someone to call ''schoul
BUTTER to US, and if it was another
boy who did ii, he was always licked
before the insult could be- forgotten
These words were part OF a verse
which went as follows:
School butter.
Chicken iUttcr,
Rotten eggs for your supper.
Two words quite common were
"~briggetty' and ''focety," meaning
smart and forward. Another was
"hooter'-"l don't care a hooter.n
Hate" was used in the same sense,
and also, 81 don't know a hate
about it," 81 don't care a shoe
tickle" was not uncommon to the
west OF us. "As cold as blue fup-
ms" expressed unusually cold
weather. Whip was almost inyari-
ably pronounced whoop, with the
sound of 90 in foot. "Le's play ten
like" was common among children
when they were to assume the char.
acters OF other in their games. The
boys always played 'marvels,n
never marbles. In this game were
such expressions as''venn or "yent. ),
or "fen dubs, ""knuckle," "roun,s, y
Then there was "knuckle down,
"knuckle bony," "knuckle bonv
Tight and "knuckle hoonch," this
latter among boys to the west, again.

DO WOMEN KNOW.

From the Boston Transcript.
That meat, if cooked before being
eaten, is more palatable and more
easily retained by the stomach than
when eaten raw?
That it requires a larger vessel to
hold three pints Of a given liquid
than one whose capacity is but one
quart?
That shoes and stockings, IL laid
away in a bureau drawer, either with
or without fennel or mignonette,
will last very much longer than
shoes and stockings that are in con-
slant e upon the feet?
That the greater the pains taken
selecting the materials for your
husbands breakfast and the more
excellently it is cooked, the better
may he be expected to enjoy the
food which is set before him?
That the trousers or gowns which
fit a rapidly growing child to-day
wilt not be Tx ely to fit the child ten,
or even six years, hence?
That the purchase of a new cloak
may be avoided by wearing your old
garment for another year, Or In the
event of such a curse being out of
the question, by keeping within doors
until warm weather returns?
That the GOODNESS in ice is due to
its low temperature, a fact that is
easily provable by the simple exper-
iment of submitting the ice to heat,
which will soon render 1t difficult if
not impossible to distinguish the
liquefied ice from similar water
which has not been CONCEALED?
That a clean napkin or table cloth
is not nearly 30 much in need OF
washing as a table cloth or napkin
which has become soiled by use?
That the bones should be removed
from the meat or fish before 1t is
chopped for croquettes or hashs.
That a black cat, 80 far rs the
mere matter of color is concerned,
is as much unlike a white cat as q
white cat is dissimilar from a black
cat?
That the proper place for eques-
trian exercise is out doors or at the
riding academy, and that no lady
who aspires to the name of house,
keeping will ever think of riding on
horseback about her parlor OF
kitchen?
That while one may more quickly
discover how q novel comes out by
reading the last chapter first, yet
the story is more easily followed and
understood by beginning at the first
chapter and reading the following
chapters consecutively9
That because three feet make a
yard, 1t does not follow that eight
ounces make a pound or two quartz
q gallon9
That it does not naturally and
inevitably follow, when the servant
tells you that Mrs. Blank is out, thnt
Mrs. Blank is not peering at you
through the blinds and poking fun II
your bonnet2
That the women are not such on
irmed, COMPOUNDED and conspiquepG
ignoramuses az n might suppose
by reading some OF the fool para
graphs that r printed in the papael
under the heading "Do Wo1ep

BRINGING HUBBY AROUND.

From the Chicago Tribune.
1t was at a swell dinner party, and
two little women smiled knowingly
across the table at each other. As
aoon as dinner was over they rushed
into a quiet corner and demanded
simultaneously:
tell me how you ever induced
your husband to bring your"
''Ii9w Oh earth did you manage to
make him Gomez"
so, | hadn't much trouble this
time" modestly replied the woman
in green and black. ''You know my
husband always reads his paper at
the breakfast table,
"Of course, but what on earth-n
Had that to do with it? A great
deal. You see, he always answers,
'M'hm,' to anything | say, SO | just
determined to turn that habit to
account. The morning that this in
vitation came / tested him with sew
eral random remarks, and, finding
him absorbed, said: by the way,
dear, here is an invitation to dine
with Marie on the 18th, | suppose we
accept?' 'M'hn' was the reply, and
| said no more.n

preparations, and when this even
ing came l laid all his things ready.
When he came home he was thun-
d~erstruck, and, though l reminded
him that he had told me to accept,
he declared that he knew nothing
about it, and fatty refused to go.
Then l got my Calling gun in posi-
ton. Pm so sorry, DEAR l said,
but as thought we were going out l
allowed the cook to spend the even
ing with her mother, and there isn't
a thing to eat in the house." He
muttered something about a restaur-
ant, but ended by making his toilet;
and here we are" she added, tri-
umphantly.
Chow awfully bright of you, and
how nice you r looking. If that
scheme isn't copyrighted I might try
it myself some time"
Goodness, no; use 1t If you like.

"Of course you were. Sleeves

"Yes, l took twenty -four hours to

to me. You know Tom is awfully
sensitive in regard to the difference
in our ages, so the next day I allowed
him to find me in a flood Of tears.
Naturally, he demanded to know the
cause. At first I refused to tell, but
finally sobbed out that 1t was be-
cause people were saying such cruel
things of me. What things? He
was furious. 'They-they say that

WHAT MY LOVER SAID.

BY the merest chance, in the twilight gloom,
In the orchard path he met me,
In the tall, wet grass, with its faint perfume,
And I tried to pass. but he made no room
Obi l tried, but he wouldn't let me.
So | stood and blushed until the grass grew
red,
with my face bent down above it,
while he took my hand, and whispering
said
How the clover lifted each pink, sweet head
To list to all that my lover said;
Oh the clover In bloom-I love i'll
In the high, wet grass went the path to hide,
And the low, wet leaves hung over,
But I could not pass On either side,
For | found myself when | vniuly tried,
In the arms OF my stcadfast lover.
And he held me there and he raised my head,
while he closed the path before me,
And he looked down into my eyes and said
How the leaves bent down from the buughs
o'erhead
To listen to all my lover said
OH the leaves hanging lowly Ger mel
Had he moved aside but a little way
could surely then have passed him
And he knew | could never wish to stay,
And would not have heard what he had to
Could | only aside have east him.
1t was almost dark aud the moments sped
And the searching night wind found US;
But he drew me nearer and softly said
How the pure, sweet wind stood sttll instead
To listen to all that my lover said!
OH the whispering wind around US!
l an sure he knew, when he held mt fast,
That / must be all unwilling;
For l tried to go and | would have passed,
As the night had come with It's dews at last
And the sky with its stars were filing;
Rut he clasped ME close when | would have
fed
And he made me hear his story.
And his soul came out from his lips and
said
How the stars crept out when the white moon
To listen to all that my lover said:
Oh! the moon and the stars in glory.
know that the gras, and the leaves will not
tell,
And 1 am sure that the wind, precious
rover,
Will carry his secret So safely and well
That no being viii ever discover
one word of the many that rapidly fell
From the eager lips of my lover.
And the moon and the stars thar looked
over
Shall never reveal what a fairy-likc spell
They wuvC round about Us that night IN the
dell,
In tile path through the dew-ludru clover;
Nor echo the whispers that made my heart
swell
As they fell from the lips II my lover.

IN GOOD OLD DAYS,

She wore a snowy muslin,
And n white rose in her hair:
Not silks, nor gems. nor diadcm-,
And yet she was very fair.

On the white and ~anded floor.

But a loved and cherished wife.
