Che Origin Of ''LinHer."

A correspondent sends the following
derivation Of the term Ginger EARLY
in the forties there moved from Yer
mont to one Of the then flourishing cot
ton manufacturing villages Of New
Hampshire a man with a large family
Of children, to keep one of the corpora
ton boarding houses. He was a tall,
lank dyspeptic. There was but one shoe
store in the village; in the rear of the
store was a room for making and re-
pairing shoes. Here was q Frenchman,
and a lover Of mischief. One day the
tavern keeper entered the shop and said:
Hello! Are you a shoemaker Yes
was the answer, and linger at it. The
Frenchman caught on, and in a day or
two there was hung outside the build
ing, with other store goods, probably
the most uncouth, bunglingly made pair
Of shoes eve seen on the continent,
labeled 'Lingers.' There they hung I'M
til every man, oma and child in the
village had looked them over. From
that day the members Of the dyspeptic's
family were known as Fingers And
the word was applied to everything as a
superlative, to a fine yoke Of oxen or a
big fish. "-Bostou Jorunal.

Oft l recall, my friend of friends,
The days we filled with Joy,
When you were Just q little girl
And I a happy boy,
When you would say, "Now let Us play
That I'm q lady fair
And you q king who brings q ring
And roses for my hair"
Since that glad time full many q year
Has all too quickly flown,
And many q smile has come the while
For every grief we've known;
The palace grand which then we planned,
In dreams Of long ago,
Is ours today. for still we play
The things we wish are so.
And that is why, my friend Of friends,
Our lives are filled with Joy,
For you are still my pretty girl
And ! your happy boy.
And so to me you'l always be
A lady sweet and fair,
And ! q king who brings q ring
And roses for your hair.

AT Baalbec, IN a quarry, lies a mag
niticent column, the largest worked
stone IN the world, almost detached and
ready for transportation. In the ruined
Temple of the Sun near by is Il niche
still waiting for 1t after forgotten CEN
turtles. So large, SO grand, yet a failure,
because it never filled the place for
which it was quarried and hewn.' Thus
| read in an exchange and in my mind
turned in thought to the waiting inches
in this worid-niches Of usefulness, he
roism, righteousness. The unused col
umn may represent the possibilities in a
human life; the empty niche, the oppor'
tunities. And l can think of no more
potent blight arresting the hand OF the
Architect and Builder who would com.
plete the column and set it, perfected in
its own place, than the passion for strong
drink. See the lives that never fulfilled
the bright possibilities before them.
How much worse is this human wreck
age than the quiet waiting Of the untin-
ished column in the quarry! That is
waiting. 1t may yet subserve a noble
purpose. These are wasted; they carry
the blight and pass it on, for this is the
wreckage of a pillar Of life that should
have taken its life in a divine temple

The outcome Of the international
been very disappointing, not only TO
foreigners but TO the great body OF the
American press and people. The fact
that the cup remains on this side the
Atlantic is little satisfaction and no
glorlticatiOn IN view Of the way it was
won. While, technically, by the COM
mlttee's decision based or technical
construction Of yachting rules, the cup
is gwen to Defender, it would have been
more more satisfactory to glory over the
cup had it been won in Il manly fashion
and after a fair contest. The Ameri-
cans were at home. on known waters,
and III the first two races had winds and
weather considered more favorable to
them than to the Britlsher. They could
afford to be generous to ii rival and If
partiality was to be shown at all, 1t
should nave been shown to their guests,
not to themselves. Now, that Dunraven
has refused to continue the contest, 1t
leaves an unpleasant feeling between the
interested parties to the contest, a
measure Of stultlticatlon to the Ameri-
cans aud takes away from them any of
the pride, enthusiasm or rejoicing that
results from manfully earned victory.
1t is an unfortunate outcome Of the most
delightful Of sports.
