Maryland Topographic Maps.

Within the last few months the United
States Geological Survey of Maryland
has issued four quadranglcs Of the topo-
graphic map of Maryland. They are
drawn on II scale of about one mile to
the inch, and show in great detail the
towns and cities of the sections they
cover, the roads, railroads and streams;
they also reveal the relief or topography
by contour lines which pass through
points of equal elevation, thus showing
the shape or contour of the hills and val
ley and their altitude above sea level.
The maps are named from some import
ant town or feature shown upon them,
the Frostburg Quadrangle, which in
cludcS the towns of FroStburg and Cum
bcrland and shows the mountainous coun-
try in the western part of the State; the
LeonardtOwn and Drum Point Quad
rangles, which are adjacent in the east
bordering the PatuXent River and Chcsa-
peake Bay; and the Ocean City Quad
rangle, showing the country adjacent to
Ocean City and the ocean beach to above
the Delaware line. Other Maryland map
sheets are-the Belair, Snow Hill, Gun
powder, Princess Anne, Green Run and
Salisbury quadrangles in the northern
and eastern part of the State. The Pat
uxcnt and Mt. Vernon quadrangles com
prise the District of Columbia and the
City of " ashington.

Ger one. Upon these fishing shores her
ring are caught by the tens of thousands
and shad by the hundred. At present the

vail. Herring bring 40 cents per 100 and
shad 10 to 20 cents each. There are
more OILERS fishing this season than for

COUNTING A BOYS WORDS.
Vocabulary Of Children Greater Than
Was Believed.

Max Muller in his Science Of Ian
guage" referred to English laborers
who had not more than 300 words in
their vocabulary. The correctness of
this statement is disputed by the Popu-
lar Science Monthly M. c and H.
Gale. OF the University Cf Minnesota,
having made a close study Of the ques-
ton, report that all such generaliza-
tions or estimates are misleading, and
that the average child two and a half
years old uses in one day from six to
eight hundred different words.
II is not a burning question, and
most people may not care how many
words a child uses in a day. but Mrs.
Gale did and she made an actual count
Of words used by a boy and a girl.
The boy aged two and a half years.
used 751 different words in a day and
made a record for the day of $500
words A girl of the same age used
$40 different words in day and made
a record Of 1892 words for the day.
OF the ISL words used by the boy.
$50 were nouns, 1S9 verbs. SO adiec-
tiyes. AZ adverbs, interjectiOns. q
pronouns. q propositions and II ar
ticles and conjunctions, and of all the
different words GA per cent were used
in the first five hours of the day. The
full vocabulary Of the boy was 1.432
and of the girl 1908 words Neither
used in any one day all the words at
his or her command. The boy used
his own name 1,O57 times in one day.
while the girl used o." "mc" and
my" go times and the word little"
$50 times. One boy. two years old.
used 10 1907 words in one day
The deductions from these facts
are that a child is as active with it's
tongue as with its legs, that a child
uses a larger proportion Of verbs than
the adult. that the everlasting no"
takes precedence Of the submissive
yes that the child uses short words
because of their serviceableness. but
does not hesitate to srapple with anu
modify long, hard words, and invents
words on impulse when It's needs re-
quire. Observation shows that a
child Of or does not use as many
words in a day as a child OF 2, but
there is no record Of any one attempt
ing to count the words of a boy Of 8
who wants to know."-Chlcago inter-

Dangers Of the Bath.

Brevity is commendable. but in the
enunciation of great truths it is pos
sible TO stop just short of complete.
ness Of statement which leaves the
seeker after information at a loss to
know how to apply such knowledge
after the manner in which our Puritan
ancestors applied all Scripture-"B
way of Improvement" For example,
the London Lancet startles the world
with the following announcement:
TOO much bathing is harmful. as II
tends to macerGtiOn Of the superficial
part Of the epidermis. which Is too fire.
quently removed, and occasions prob
ably too rapid a proiferation of the
cells Of the malpignian layer" But
what Is too much and how shall the
man who seeks to regulate his life
by the teachings of science know
when the superficial part of his epider-
mis- is macerated and when the pro-
liberation of the cells of the malpig
hian layer Is too rapid? No rightmind-
ed person would want these things to
happen In his own case. and to the in
dividual to whom bathing is perfume
tory and who feels a greater sympathy
than he would be willing to express for
the little girl who objected to her
morning ablutions in winter on the
ground that she had rather be warm
and dirty than clean and cold" macer-
alton Of the epidermlc superfces and
galloping proliferation of the malpig-
HAL cells would be symptoms to be
looked for as the result Of bathing
oftener than. say, once a week. Hence
the information Of the Lancet, while
shocking. is not likely to be reyolu-
tionary Of individual habits.-New

How % pronounee coIoane.

The German city which we know by
It's French name, Cologne. is in
state of great excitement over the
orthagraphy of its German name.
Should it be spelled with a K or a
C-"Koeln" or "Coeln?"
The municipal authorities recently
concluded that it was high time to SET
tie the matter In their own opinion
Koeln is the proper form, historically
correct and in accordance with the
genius OF the language" They de-
termined, however to refer the mat.
ter to the general government. and
this agreed with them. So far all
was harmony and peace.
But when 1t came to confirming the
unanimous decision by an imperial
sdict the imperial will had to be reck.
oned with and the Imperial William
prefers the spelling "Coeln" The
Colognese defended their favorite
TX" and formed a court of inquiry,
composed OF historians and phiIOl.
ogists, who reported in favor Of it.
They admitted that the name originat-
ed I'm that OF the Colonia Claudia
Agrippinensis Ubiorum, founded Wy
Claudius A. D. 50, but they contends 4
that the Introduction of the e, or um
laut, would modify the pronunciation
30 that II the name we're spelled Coeln
It ought to be pronounced Zoeln in.
stead Of Koeln, as everybody does
pronounce It. (In German. before
