A peculiar kind of laundering known
as folk etymology" is responsible for
some of the queerest freaks of Ian
guage. An easy example will make
this clear. says Harper's Magazine.
Our American word "carryan'' for a
kind of vehicle is not a compound OF
carry" and all but a slight distor-
ton Of the French "carriole." dimin-
utiye car. The change was made in
obedience TO the universal tendency to
assimilate the unknown TO the known.
to make words mean something by as
sociating them with others which they
resemble In sound. Often there is no
genealogical relation between the
words associated. as when sparrow
grass is made out of asparagus. This
particular corruption was once in such
good colloIuiai use that Walker the
lexicograph r. wrote. ~Sparrowgrass Is
SO general that asparagus has an air
Of stiffness and pedantry.''

they blow open a safe wrap blankets

There is better way however, and
that Is to fill the crevices with putty.
