be found quite effective. according to
Mrs. Rcror, who tells in The Ladies'
Home Journal how to proceed: Put into

two tablespoonful of powdered gum
camphor, close the door and allow tho
fumes Of the camphor to thoroughly sat

also drive away the little silverfish that
are, perhaps, the most destructive of all
the summer pests, as they not only at

and cotton and such articles rs are used

Literary Evolution of America.

We are passing through the same
stage of literary evolution as the French,
only that with them the habit of liter
airy criticism and self criticism makes
the tendency more marked and more
easily studied. Here, as there, it might
seem that for the time the minds Of
men had overleaped themselves, as
though in this strange fin dn steele we
were pausing in our letters and art, I'M
certain of the onward way, and seek
ing in more acute apprehension deeper
penetration and keener analysis OF what
has been and is an answer to our per-
plexity of what shall be. Here, as there,
originality, never absent, manifests it.
self too often in studied eccentricity
and wastes its energy in a search for
the novel and bizarre-a search that is
most futile when most successful.
But as one reviews the field of Amer
lean letters one may take heart of brace
to say that our development in no way
lags behind that of England, that it
has in it the promise of an evolution as
brilliant, as varied and perhaps more
critically sound. Above all, it is indie
pendent, and so is contributing an i'm
portant. perhaps an essential, part to
the growth of distinctly national lit
erature. Professor b. W. Wells in Fo-
rum
The copper country evening news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 18??-1907, 1897-06-25
The Growth of Language.

No committee can tell whether
word is good word or bad word, or
whether it is wanted or not. Old fash
Toned people will always tell you that
new word is not wanted and that there
are plenty of exact equivalents for it al
ready in the language. This seems con-
elusive, yet experience often proves that
they were wrong and that there was
shade of meaning which they did not
perceive, but which was nevertheless
pressing eagerly for expression. Thou
sands of words which we now consider
absolutely essential to the language
were, when they were first introduced,
described as quite unnecessary and the
mere surplusage of pedantry or affecta-
ton. Let any one turn to that most
humorous of Elizabethan plays, 1.-The
Poetaster " and read the scene i'll which
the poet (Marston is the subject of the
satire) is given an emetic and made to
bring up all the newfangled words
which he has used IN his works. The
character who is watching the results
keeps on calling out that such and such
a monstrosity has newly come up.
This was thought IA brilliant piece of
satire at the time, and yet now half the
condemned words are admitted by all
readers and writers. In truth. there can
be no censorship in literature. The only
possible plan is to give every word its
chance and allow the fittest to survive.
1t was III this sense that Dryden de-
clared that he proposed new words,
and if the public approved 1.-THE bill
passed" and the word became law. In
stead of a writer being on the lookout
to throttle and destroy any and every
new word or phrase that may be sug-
gested, it ought to be his business to ell
courage all true and fitting develop
ments Of his native tongue. Dryden, in
the admirable passage from which we
have quoted already, uses the memo
rable phrase, 81 trade both with the liv-
| ing and the dead for the enrichment OF
our tongue. London Spectator.
