 Paine's celery compound restores vital ity to tired nerves; it feeds every tissue of the body when unusual waste has re- duced the weight and strength of the body, as is frequently the case at the close of the heated season.

REFORMED SPELLING.
One Letter to Grow Where Two Grow
Before.

some seven years igo the ,4erm86 ma.
ton quietly simplifed its smelling nv
the knocking ont Of various suDerADons
letters. For 80 years number of Amer
lean enthusiasts have been trying to do
something OF the same kind for the Eng
llsh language. Before that Webster in
ltated the move, which has finally sue
ceeded here, to drop the "u" that is still
retained by the English in such words al
Favour, "labour' and honour. "
Webster also made several other admira.
BILE changes in the direction of shorten
ing and simplifying words, changes
which, although generally adopted in
America, are still repudiated with scorn
by the British.
The changes contemplated by another
school OF reformers of the English lam
guage. in addition to simplifcations like
spelling words beginning with "ph"
with ''f" instead, as erase" for
"phrase," would reoeganize our Ian
guage on the phonetic basis, or $50
netic, " as the new spelling would be.
We would spell words as they are pro-
nounced. This was the reform attempt
ed 30 years ago, but which has never
succeeded to any extent. Funk & Wag-
nails, the publishing firm, propose now,
however, to take the matter up in ear
nest
They have issued circulars on the sub
ject to publishers, teachers and scholars
throughout the country. In these circu-
lars they declare that they will adopt
forthwith into their four periodical
publications the new spelling if suf
fcient number of those to whom the cir
Culars are addressed will do the same,
so that f. &. W. will not be forced to
bear alone the brunt Of all the criticism
that will be fired at them. The circular
contains list Of the words whose spell
ing it is proposed to change.
Some Of the words they will change
slightly are geographical names. For
instance, they will spell Boring sea,
Tibet, Sudan, Chile, Korea and Haiti
as here written. Many authorities do
that already, however. They will drop
silent letters, giving us, for instance,
"receit' for receipt. Perhaps they will
spell knowledge" thus, "nolledg," In
such words as dropped" they would
change the ed to st" thus, "dropt, "
writing words whose final "ed" is pro-
nounced like ct" as they are spoken.
This would be a great gain in the line
Of brevity. In many other words Funk
& Wagnalls would make one letter grow
where two grew before.

To Keep Cool.

For four years st. Louis and Denver
have been keeping cool by currents of
anhydrous liquid ammonia that flow
through mains as gas and water do and
refrigerate food, air and people, if they
desire it, in hotels, markets and private
houses. Like most new ideas, this took
root in the west first. The present sum-
mer the system has been adopted by cot
tagers and hotel keepers at Atlantic
City.
It is tolerably certain that ice will be
supplanted as a cooler before many
years, either by anhydrous liquid am
monia or by new preparation known
as carbon dioxide. 1t is produced by
calcining limestone with the coke OF
soft coal. 1t is a gas as first formed, but
can be compressed and liqueied. Then
the plan is to pass it also through un-
derground pipes from central plant to
houses. hotels, meatshops and any 9TH
err place where it is wanted.
The carbon dioxide may be sprayed d.
rectly upon meat which it is desired to
refrigerate. 1t is said to sour milk, how
ever, And when the temperature is boil
ing hot outside it is expected to be able
nv either one of these methods to cheat
old father sun out Of his innings and
depress the mercury to any desired point
indoors.

Onr Mixed Population.

The following incident of New York

John bit on it and said: Counterfeit;
you gettee in trouble; me keepee,' and
put it in his pocket. The Italian then
called and started to give the Chinaman
a beating. A Greek left his oyster stand
to act as peacemaker, The Italian drew
a razor and the Greek SHE'D bottle of
cayenne pepper at him, which struck a
