1.-THE Simpliiication of English Shell
ing is discussed by Brander Matthews
in the Century i'm an article that should
be profitable alike TO those who are
uncompromisingly in favor of the pho
netic system and those who are as
latubbornly opposed TO any change lie
says of the former that thoy have
asked TOO much; that they have no.
taken due account of the immense
conservatism that gives stability to the
Institutions of the English-speal1ing
I race" The excessive zeal of those re-
formers accounts for their seeming
failure. The idea that all the superfu-
GUS letters in English photography
could be forthwith eliminated and the
phonetic system promptly inauguratod
was little short of rank absurdity
Granting all that is claimed as to the
desirability of the change It was un-
reasonable TO expect that it would
come except at a very show pace. Ccn-
tulies may be required to effect what
The phonetic radicals expect TO accom-
pliah onhand. Mr.. Matthews shows
practical sense when he says it may as
well be realized once for all that such
thing as a sweeping change in the
apelling of any living language is i'm b
possible.
but the professor says of the ex-
tremists Of the opposite class that in
making an cutlery against any change
they are the worst of the innOvators.
He reminds them that change is the
law of life in a language as in an or
ganism or a nation; that from the days
of Shakespeare the English language
never has ceased to change from gem
GRAFTON to generation, striving always
in the direction of simpler phonetic
spelling. And he submits that the
best the spelling reformer can do is
to help along this good work in the
infinitely slow but natural method in
which such changes come-tO be on the
side Of simplification rather than Of
fossilizatiOn.
The fact that our language is
spreading over the world at an amaz-
ing rate emphasizes regret for it num-
berless defects and increases the desire
for needed reforms One of the worst
defects is that we have many words
which, while differing i'm photography
and meaning, are alike in sound For
example. "rowed," rode" road"
write" rite" right" wright" Is
it not surprising that foreigners some
/ times acquire pretty good knowledge
OF English?

True worth is i'm being, not seeming,
In doing each day that goes by
Some little good-not in the dreaming
OF great things to do by and by.
For whatever men say in blindness,
And spite of the fancies Of youth,
There's nothing so kingiy as kind
ness.
And nothing so royal as truth.
We get back our mete as we measure
We cannot do wrong ana feel right
Nor can We give pain and gain pleas
ure
For Justice avenges each slight.
The air for the wing of a sparrow.
The bush for the robin and wren,
But always the path that Is narrow
And strait, for the children and men.
Ills not in the pages of story
Tho heart of i,s Ills TO begufo,
Though he who makes courtship to
glory
Gives all that he hath for her smile.
For when from her heights he has won
her.
Alas it is only to prove
That nothing's so sacred as honor.
And nothing so loyal as love.
We cannot make bargains for b.isses,
Nor catch them like fishes in nets
And sometimes the thing our life
misses
Helps more than the thing that #
gets.
For good lieth not in pursuing,
Nor gaining for great nor of small.
But Just in the doing. and doing
AS we would be done by, is all.
Through envy. through malice, through
hating.
Against the world, early and late.
NO lot of our courage abating-
Our part is to work and to wait.
And slight is the sting of his trouble
Whose winnings are less than his
worth
For he who Is honest is noble.
Whatever his fortunes or birth.

WAYFARER'S NOTEBOOK
Dangers Of Gasoline Stoves

While the horror of the recent terrible
gasoline explosion i'm Philadelphia is
fresh i'm the minds of the people, the Way
faror thinks it timely to give the read
ers of this column some facts concerning
the dangerous and explosive nature of
gasoline and of gasoline stoves. Many
accidents happen every year because of
ignorance and carelessness ON the part of
housewives who Use the explosive.
The principal danger from gasoline
stoves is in having the gasoline on the
premises. AT ordinary temperature gaso-
line continually gives Off innammable va

HOW ARTIFICIAL TEETH ARE MADE
AND WHAT BECOMES OF THEM

Hundreds Of thousands of artificial
teeth are manufactured and sold every
year. What becomes of them? 1t is
like asking what becomes Of pins and
other things which are practically indie
etrucuble.
how artificial teeth are made. Tie
story is told in Nantucket of sea cap
tain who was a great whistler until he
lost one of his front teeth by accidental
contact with Delaying pin. For some
time he bemoaned his lost accomplish
ment. until he found thathe could whistle
very well with an artificial tooth whit
tied out of a piece of wood. When q
performance was desired he would
calmly carve out an incisor and put Il
in position. Then the audience would
wait until the tooth was swelled by the
moisture of his mouth so that ii would
not slip out.
When plates We're discovered and The
expert dentist was able to supply a

To-day all artificial teeth are made

lah. Those which are known in the
trade as store teeth" being carried
in stock by the big dental supply
houses, are manufactured in enormous
quantities.
The porcelain material, which con-
tains various mineral proportions. is
worked up like a sort of dough or plas-
ter, and forced into moulds and fused
by intense heat in a furnace. Each
tooth is covered with enamel and has
one or more metal pins in the back to
hold it to the plate.
In large lots these teeth can be made

Corporation Fees
rom the Dover Index.

From the Dover Index.
Secretary of state Layton has called
upon the agents of foreign corpora
uons doing business in this State for
the payment of the fee OF $50 as PRO-
vided by law. The secretary is right
in seeing that the law is observed so
far as it pertains to his office. But the
agents so far notified are disinclined TO
comply with the demands of the secre-
tary OF State and refuse payment Of
the fee.
IL is a serious question as 10 whether
or not this fee can be collected. No
attempt has ever been made to collect
70 by legal process, and so far the ques-

Don't fear Dog DAYS

IL is a great satisfaction 10 know that
dog days are not necessarily mad dog
days as many persons suppose. For the
enlightenment of people who own dogs
and 20 relieve their anxiety during this
sultry period the Wayfarer gives the fol-
lowing informaton
Some time between the first week in
July and the second week in August, for
authorities are not agreed, the so-called
dog days occur. There is a popular inn
preston that the hot weather prone to
occur at this time has received its name
Of dog days because of an observed ten
dency of dogs 10 become mad, or at least
because of an irritability due TO heat that
makes them more dangerous at this
period than at other times of the year.
This tradition is only another example
of the well-known habit of words TO
usurp the function of facts when the
original meaning of the word becomes
obscnred. The visitor of Lucerne may
believe the foik-etory that Mount Pila-
tins is SO called because PLATE in his
wnnderings from Jerusalem committed
suicide there. until he finds that pilatius
Is the Latin for capped, and perhaps the
name is due 20 the fact that hte noun
tain is frequently capped with clouds.
The dog DAYS are so called because of the
heliacal rising of Sirius, the dog star, al
this period. Dogs are, however. no more
liable 10 go mad at this time of the year
than at any other.

expense that cannot be overcome. and
that is the cost OF the metal holding

In teeth that are made TO order moth
ing is impossible. from the short. white
teeth of normal youth to the long dis
colored ones OF extreme age, and the
prices range with those Of watches.
And now for the answer to the ques-
ton. What becomes of false teeth ?"
Sometimes they are lost. sometimes
stolen and sometimes left as
family legacy. Generally, however.
they are buried with the owner and lie
forever hidden in the ground. Second
hand teeth are valuable only for the
platinum wire that they contain and
when they fall into the hands OF regu-
lar teethmakers they are smashed up
to get the platinum out.
Yet teeth have been used over. A
lady went to a dentist with set Of
teeth which had belonged to her
mother. who was dead. She said that
she had always admired those teeth
when her mother wore them, and now
that her own were gone she wanted the
old set remounted for herself. 1t was
done.
