coughs to pneumonia and cOnsump-

The mans leg found on Thursday
near Reusens, not far from Lynch

agreed upon a division Of the work and
q scale Of wages which they viii force

ANCIENT TERMS OF SPEECH.
Mans Address to Domestic Animals Of
Remote Antiquity.

HEuluAE

are used only to animals. More than

thews. who contributes an article on the
subject to Popular Science News, :"
notes that the dog is almost the only
animal for which we have no special
call or word of command-perhaps be-
cause of his almost human intelligence.
Some Of the words that we use to ami
maIs Mr.. Matthews tells US, are he
names by which our ancestors called
the animals themselves Some are Sans
crit, or early Indian words; some are
Greek. some Latin. some TeUtonic, some
Old English words, long since obsolete.
