MISUSE OF WORDS.

.sSupercilious is from supercilium, eyebrow: .supercilious eyebrow is therefore, equivalent to 'eyebrowish eyebrow a rank tautology, and mex cusable. But leading newspaper has, ..The reviewer proceeds to say with supercilious eyebrows::' as well might we say, with ocular eyes, or 'auric- ular ears, or pedal feet, or mental minds.
 .sCommit, when said of moral act, is always associated in the mind with blameworthiness, never with acts Schley investigation we read of the secretary of the navy committing his first impartial act.
 .'Pessimist and pessimistic designate always q mental attitude q point of view, but never the quality of an ob- iective thing or situation Though the prospect of coming harvest be never so gloomy. it is not nor can be pessi- mistic, and though never so cheering, it is not nor can be optimistic; pessi- mfsm and optimism are strictly moods of mind, and are practicable only of the mind of man. But the secretary of agriculture is reported as saying
 He OuIIOOh 1OI IHC ClOEo lo Oy 1iO means pessimistic The right word is 'discouraging,' or the like.
 .'Tribulation is one of the most no- table words in our language. It is dis tinctly q Christian and religious word, as Archbishop Trench shows in tracing it's origin. The sorrows and trials the religious man has are the threshings without which there would be no fit ting him for the heavenly garner. Tribulation is derived from the Latin tribulum, which was the threshing in strument or harrow whereby the Ro- man husbandman separated the corn from the husks; and tribulatio ill it's primary significance was the act of this separation ('Study of Words" lect D. Tn correct usage the word has preserved all it's sacred and solemn meaning; but the newspaper which sees no merit in the affort to maintain the etymological purity of the mother tongue debases its significance when, i'll telling of the search made for q stray submarine mine, it says, the search was made in fear and tribula- ton. .''-Joseph Fitzgerald in Harper's.

The welcome given to Prince Henry, and the treatment he received during his stay in the country, leads an ex- change to write as follows: Ut is fit ting, then, that the representative of q country whose sons have done their should be cordially received by the American people. We have never been at war with Germany. No German army has ever marched upon the Ma tional Capital, and, in defiance of the laws of civilized warfare, applied the torch to it. In the days of our weak ness, when Washington and his ragged and ill-fed soldiers were passing that terrible winter at Valley Forge, an an cestor of Prince Henry, Frederick the Great, showed sympathy with the American cause. In the trying years of '61 to '65 Germany did not move heaven and earth to bring about the destruction of the Union. Four years ago she did not hypocritieally pose as our only friend while preparing to stab up in the back Between her and America there exists no bitter mem ories of wrongs done and of treacheries attempted when the life of the nation hung trembling in the balance. Her sons, standing shoulder to shoulder with other Americans of English descent, have shed their blood on many battlefield in defense of the Stars and Stripes. On those same battle fields there were never found on the bodies of the dead foes of the Union evidences that in life they had been supplied with arms, accoutrements and ammunition from Germany. Those evi- dences were furnished by the nation which now, in the day of our prosper ity and strength would claim q monop oly of our friendship, and which views with undisguised jealousy the enthusi- astic welcome we are giving Prince Henry of Prussia"

The two foremost topics in the state to-day are the constitutional convention and the smallpox epidemic. Waterbury is having it's share of the latter. and Hartford is the headquarters for the former. Chief of Police Egan has aI- keeping tramps and hoboes out of this city, for he gives notice that they are liable to be sent to the pest house. if they become too numerous. In the editorial page of the Hartford Post last evening was the following sugges- tion which that paper says had it's birth certificate in Meriden: "The sug- gestion is to the effect that as supple mentary precaution against smallpox the tramps' quarters at the police sta tion be padlocked for q while Tramps and smallpox take to dirt as a Ken lucky colonel takes to fire-water and as a fish takes to other kinds of water. Smallpox is doing mild business in various parts of the state, and the spread of the disease is largely due to the carelessness of infected people in going from one place to another. Tramps, who love dirt, which in turn is loved by smallpox, stroll about the state, and they are liable to become a medium for increasing the circulation of the disease. If an affected person happens to be included in the collection of tramps who sleep in the lodging possibilities of trouble are many and great. The Meriden suggestion to close the tramps' quarters seems to be good one-and, as we understand, AIeriden doesn't propose to copyright it."

together, with music and gossip and children's play. On summer days when the mills are closed one sees hundreds of French families on their way to the public parks, where they gather socially in little parties and the moth CT joins with the children, swinging with them in the big swings and help ing them gather wild flowers without a thought for the stares of the pass ers-by.
 The memories of such occasions re- mains, and the French mothers in- f1uence is q tremendous power in the lives of her children. She is usually pious and simple minded, and she teaches her girls their prayers and their catechism carefully Afterward her memory keeps them true to the faith she taught them. A friend among them said to me: "How can one live without religion? It is the difference between men and animals that men have q religion"
 During the years when the children are small and the care of them is add ed to her tasks in the mill and shop the Frenchwoman's life is one of ai- most ir1cessant labor, and she ages rapidly, but when the boys and girls are old enough to begin to work for | themselves and help in the support of the family the mother is excused from outside labor and begins to find her reward in the devotioin of large family of sons and daughters. After this she is very closely confined to the home. She is not a club woman. She has never had much outside life since her early period of promenades, but y,Nte ..I- IIs4r
 Now, however. she is contented with I a few neighbors, and her life becomes round of household cares and re- ] responsibilities. She is still industrious,
 but life is easier for her than it was
 before; she begins to grow stout and
 her face takes on all expression of l contentment, commonplace but pleas ant to see. She feels that she has done her work and may sit by while f the next generation assumes the bur- f den.
 She begins to revert to the tradi-
 tons of her race, which her independ-
 ent girlhood partially belied. and in i her method of life, her piety, and the
 rule or her household, she is the pro- ] to type of those ancestors who lived
 out their days on the Canadian soil.
 She causes the family to speak
 French that her grandchildren may
 not grow up ignorant of the tongue of i their forefathers, and she teaches them
 its customs, it's religion, becoming a
 very stronghold of conservatism. In fact, her character is the strongest
 force that binds her people in loyalty 1 to the old civilization, and it is neces, sar only to consider her nature and
 her power to become convinced that
 any attempt to hasten the Americani-
 zation of the French Canadians should
 begin with the little girls.
