utterly fail TO see where English
men have received the impression that
the Hungarian language is a sort OF
anderling dialect of German. says a
writer i'm Nineteenth Century. Ger
man and English, as is well known,
are anlanguagcs. Hungarian is no
Aryan language at all. Us very char
acter is opposed 10 that of the German
idiom. If German or English may
fairly be compared to tree, the
branches and fruits of vhich are in
deed visible. the roots of which. how
ever, are underground and hiddenaway,
the Hungarian language i3.like a tree
the roots OF which are almost visible,
and by kind of linguistic Roentgen
photography we can almost watch the
sap of the roots rising into the stem
and branches. 1t is, in other words.
agglutinative.
The first syllable of each word repre-
sents the root of the word; lenses or
pronoms are soldered on TO the root.
II is originally the language of nomad
and rowing tribes anXious'y clnging TO
their word roots fer fear Of losing all
means of understanding one another.
OF German words in Hungarian there
is only handful, and they are used
mostly as clowns and iestma<crs in
the courtly avenues of Hungarian SEN
fences. The Hungarians do not detcst
the Germans, but they do not like them,
either. The German, known to the
MagNars chiefly in his Austrian mani
festation. does not appear model
worth initiating. The Austrian is POI
lie, amiable, Industrious, but, before
anything else, pleasmc-loying.

OF POLITICAL IMPORTANCE.
Rapid Increase OF Population in Germany

Need of an Outlet.
The rapid increase of population in
Germany, due. il is believed, to the in
crease of manufactures, is becoming of
political Importance, says the Specta-
tor According 10 the corrected return
of the census, taken on December 2,
1895, the empire now contains 52.2t4,-
SOB inhabitants, while France contains
only 39.0O0,0O0. The Germans, more
over, add at least 100000 to their
number every ten years, while the
French may be said not to increase at
all. As both countries train every
available man, the German army must
always be greater than the French. and
in another generation Will be greater
by more than third. again, it is
doubtful whether Germany, which is
naturally far poorer country than
France, can long sustain it's population,
which must, therefore, either emigratc
in increasing numbers or burst out in
some direction into lands less over
full. 1t is believed TO be clear per-
ception Of these facts which makes some
ruling men in Germany so eager for
dependency into which Germans
might swarm. They would not swarm
even if they got one. The idea of the
German emigrant Is to escape official
dom, not to replace himself under it in
q country beyond the seas.

The Shakers have made a great hit.
Their Digestive Cordial is said TO be
the most successful remedy for stom-
ach troubles ever introduced. II i'm.
mediately relieves all pain and dis
trcss after eating, builds up the feeble
system and makes the weak strong.
The fact is. foods properly digested
are better than sO-called tones. The
Cordial not only contains food al
ready digestcd, but is di2csler Of
other foods. Food that is not digest
ed does more harm than good. Peo-
pie who use the Cordial insure the
digestion of what food they eat and
in this way get the benefit OF it and
grow strong.
The little pamphlets which the
Shakers have sent druggists tor free
distribution, contain much interest

pepsia.

smallpox Epidemic Teaches People the
Value of Vaccination.
The recent outbreaks OF smallpox i'm
the slums of Gloucester was. according
To recent reports IN the London Stand
ard, very serious affair. Eleven per-
sons are known TO have been removed
to the hospital in two days in one par
ticular court. The ncighborhood re-
ferred to is in an exceedingly dirty con
dition, and crowded to excess.
\ medical man states that not one
single person who has been successfully
revacciuatcd has been admitted to any
Of the hospitals suffering from the dis
ease.
Every facility is now offered to the
working classes 10 be vaccnated or re
vaccinatcd. free of expense, with cali
lumph if desired, either at their own
homes or at the numerous vaccination
stations which have been temporarily
opened in all parts Of the city.
The effect of the epidemic on many
trades was disastrous, business in
some cases being almost at a standstiil.
Diapers, tailors, dealers in furniture.
etc, were greatly affected, while the re-
ceiptS of tram-Cars were little more
than onc-haIf the amount taken at or
binary times, and this notwithstanding
the fact that on the windows of each
car notice was posted stating that the
conveyance was regularly disinfected.
With reference to the cost of the cpl
demic to the city a prominent official in
formed me that, judging from past eN-
perience, he estimates that this will be
at least 10000 or E12.OO0.
