Freaks of Language.

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 Harpers Magazine.
Our American word "carryall' for a
kind of vehicle is not compound of
"carry" and "all," but Q. slight distor-
ton of the French "carriole" dimin-
utive car. The change was made in
obedience to the universal tendency to
assmilate the unknown to the known
to make woRls mean something by as
sociating them with others which they
resemble in sound. Often there is nc
genealogical relation between the
words associated, as when sparrow
grass is made out of asparagus. This
particular corruption was once in such
good colloquial use that Walker, the
photographer, wrote, "Sparrowgrass is
so general that asparagus has an air
of stiffness and pedantry."

The Reason.

Wife, think these new women who

Husband-I'm sure there's no dan

Wife-Well, should say not.
Husband-No; mems clothes couldn't

suit yOu.-Phladelph Press

 Rule Turf.

Berlin. May 7.-Herr Bleichroeder. the Rosebery of the German turf. has dis charged every German who had anything to do with his racing stables. and from trainer to stable boys he has replaced them with Americans, among whom are several colored men. Herr Bleiohroeder, who is a prominent banker, has told his turf acquaintances that he was convinged that the Americans knew how to get fhe best out of the race horses and he in tended to employ no other nationality in his stable.
 Only two American jockeys are contin- uously engaged on the German turf Eddy Ross. who is owned by Herr Bleich- roeder. and Nate Hill. who is retained by Herr Weinberg of Frankfort. Ross and Hill have starter the season so success fully, however, that no matter what kind of horse they ride. he is immediately marked up as favorte. The Spur. the leading racing periodical of Berlin. has published an article Ailing column which is to be devoted to the glorification of American riding as an art.
