Neighborly Matters That May Be Pie7s-
 antIy Discussed.
 The good old word gossip" has been tndly abused in the changes incident to the progress of the language. It orig iralIy meant the interchange of light talk on subjects of neighborly interest, which even in the present day and among all sorts and conditions of peo- pie will remain as interesting matter for conversation as any other. The trouble with the word gossip is that it Is now understood to refer almost en- tirely to ill-natured and malicious sean dals about neighbors. And with such an interpretation it should deserve the Ilnsttnted reproduction of all.
 When neighbor gets reputation for going around and insinuating all kinds of unpleasant things about all the other aeighbors, making indirect references so things of which she would not speak out in plain terms, and always yelling her meaning by an air of regret and a pretense of sincerely, she becomes more dangerous that a snake, and she wous he avoided with exactly the same sense of loathing tAat snakes arc usually avoided. The listener should always remember that the same gossiper will hc very likely to speak in almost the same terms of her, should she be able to find listener, and should, therefore, if only as matter of self-protection, discountenance and dismiss her in an unmistakable manner. Thus chiefly may the gossip be rooted out. A league to discourage gossips should be formed In every little community. 1t would probably be an uncertain kind of asso- citation for awhile, because, strange as it may seem, there are many gossips of even the most bitter character who do not recognize themselves as such, sssd who would in all honesty hold the character of a malicious talebearer and scandal-monger as one of the worst in the world. One of the difficulties of eradicating this evil is this fact, but lesson or two in u league CT association would be very sure to turn their eyes in upon themselves and produce an amazing revelation in many cases.
 There is gossip and gossip. Some of the news of the neighborhood as retold by many ladies IS revelation of kindly hearts and of inborn sense of the sweet ness and civility that many people have affirmed goes with gentle birth. All the pretty things are told with pretty com nents. If there are unhappy things to sell there are kindly and womanly ways of putting them, and usually some sug- Essstions inade to relieve them. These are the happy gossips, but misfortune is that the line cannot be sharply and distinctly drawn or always with safety applied at all. There is a French au- thority that says man is much given to taking pleasure in the misfortunes of his neighbor, and so long as this is pret~ y much so, there is always to be great degree of care taken in the discussion of ncighborly matters at all.-N. '. Tribune.

IA professor, wno useo to teach the

"A professor, who used to teach the grandfathers of the present generation of students, objected to the pronuncia- tion of wound" as if it were spelled ''woond," and his students used to hunt for chances to make him explain his objections. Ore day he stopped a student who was reading to class, and said, How do you pronounce that word?' "Woond, sir" The professor looked ugly, and replied, "Ihave never foond any groond for giving it that soond. Go on."--Houschold Words.

Abser.ce of Mind.

T. best instance know is that of An sIniabie Irish judge, now no longer un tue bench. Among other amusing tales told of him, it is said that on tiao occasion of bar dinner" he went ul,- stairs to dress but did not reappeai. The company sat patiently for some time. till at length, just as their hunger was gntting the better of their man. ners and an emissary was being dis patchrd to hunt up the missing judge, his lorsship appeared and explained with nanny apoiogies that, imagining he was retiring for the night. he had un. dressed snd got into bed. After an hours snoozing it suddenly struck him that he lad not yet dined, on which q i, hurried down to his guests.-London Spectator.

Zion's Herald SAYS Harvard col
lege has conferred the degree of A.
M. upon Booker 7. Washington.
When Mr.. Washington's name was
called by President Eliot, and the
black man, born a slave, stood up In
the midst of all that distinguished
company to receive his degree, the
whole assemblsge impulsiyely joined
In a great outburst Of applause. His
address later at the alumni dinner is
characterized as the most forceful
and eloquent Of the occasion.
Mr.. Washington is doing more for
his race than any other colored man
before him. He lsbors increasingly,
aud assisted by his wife, they are &C.
Complishing much in changing the
prejudice Of race distinction. He
teaches that the black man needs to
work, work aud become a moneyed
man, and money will do more to
break down race distinction than any
thing else will do. That the colored
man will command more respect if he
has a million than if he tried to as
cend the social scales through his
brains. Mr.. Washington is also
professor Of the Tuskeege college
Alabama.
