The order has gone forth that the
manners and customs of the Russian
court are to be remodeled ON the Eng

splendor than of western refinement
about them; but, although life under
the new regime will be much more re-

DispeIling an Illusion.

One of my readers wants to know the
correct pronunciation Of the word
"Llanthony. 1t is always a painful
thing to me to dispel the prevalent H.
lusion that newspaper editors know ey-
erything, but owing, ! suppose. to the
fact that was taught Latin and Greek
in my youth, when ought. to have been
learning the tongues Of the living, |
have grown up ignorant Of the proper
pronunciation of Llanthony. All can
boast Of is a general idea that in Welsh
most Of the consonants are voweIs and
most of the vowels sounds which no
can hope to initiate, But
If any of my readers can throw any light
on "Llanthony" | shall be happy to as
sist in spreading it. London Truth.
