In this country old names, many of
them of aboriginal origin, are being re-
placed by names not nearly so attrac-
tive, not nearly SO distinctive, not near
~ so American. The nomenclature of
a country is one of its possessions that
should be guarded with the utmost Wig
lance. 1t is something that comes down
to it, an ancient heritage, from it's ear
Hest settlers. Respect for the pioneers,
if nothing else, should prompt reten-
ton of the early names.

Some Noted Names Pronounced.

Because there are no rules for the
pronunciation of proper names, in
Vulnerable errors are made in this mat
ter. Here follow the correct pronun-
Citations Of the names of some persons
of renown. A. 7. CUTLER Couch sounds
the gu of his last syllable as the 90 is
sounded in the word root. Jerome X.
Jerome accents the first syllable Of his
last name; he pronounces it to rhyme
with tear 'em. In the name of Robert
Louis Stevenson the Louis is pro-
nounced as though it were spelled
Lewis. Sir Walter Besant's last name
has it's first syllable accented, and
rhymes with pleasant. The poet Rich
ard Hovey's name has it's first syllable
sounded so as to rhyme with dove.
The name of Andrew Carnegie is ac-
cented on the second syllable; it should
be pronounced as though it were spell
ed Car-naygie.

The decay Of manners In this day,
so much bemoaned, may, after all, be
but part of the process Of social evo-
luton. The individual and individual
traits are losing identity in the mass.
In the old days when strangers were
rarely met with, friends were seen but
seldom and visits were rare and for
NAL affairs, involving elaborate prepa
rations and frequently long journeys
on horseback or by coach, it was quite
natural that more fuss should be made,
that more elaborate hospitality should
be extended, that more nice things
should be said and done in a nicer
way, than now, when we momentar1ly
| bump into one another at any time
| by telephone or telegraph or fast mail,
may make visits at easy convenience
| in comfortable cars and are forced to
look upon social intercourse not as
rare, costly and grandly formal, but
rather as overdone. Times have
| changed and custom and manners
necessarily have changed with them.
Some old customs still linger under
| conditions that render them meaning
| less New courtesies have been born
that we do not as yet fully appreciate.
| 1t is to be wished that more men and
women might give more thought and
care to the rights of others. 1t mat
tiers little what ones manners may be
who has considerable regard for other
| DaOnln'S comfort Kind words SnOkpn
when in every day clothes are worth
more than all the fine compliments
ever uttered in full dress. Modern
manners are the little courtesies Of
every day. They are no longer some
thing to be put on only with ones best
| with them.

A considerable number of ministers
in various parts. of the country are
endeavoring to unity the sentiment of
their congregations on the divorce
question. A proportion of them recon-
mend that divorce shall not be granted
for either desertion or cruelty. This
might appear to be intended as an op-
preston of innocent wives. Most peO-
pie, whatever they may think about
lax divorce laws, are not likely to see
in this suggestion a moral or social
betterment. Is a woman to be COM
pellel to continue to risk her life in
the company of brute? Or, if de-
serted, must she continue to be sub
ject at any time to the selfish whims
of her unnatural husband, who would
thus be able to claim legal authority
over her ana their children, though
failing to provide for either? The adj
vocates of this restricted divorce right
may be correct in their opinion that
cruelty and desertiOn are frequently
professed or sufficiently actuated by
collision for the purpose of obtaining
divorce in order to secure liberty to
enter into new matrimonial ties. There
may be some truth in this averment.
No legislation is likely to prevent col
fusion for the dissolution of the mar
riage tie when grown tedious or in
tolerable to those who entered into it
believing it dissoluble. But no leg
islature will ever consent to refuse di-
vorce in proved cases of either de-
sertion or cruelty. The ministers would
render better service to the object they
have in view by promoting public
opinion and legislation against the re-
marriage of divorced persons, at least
against the remarriage of the guilty
party. Statistics have repeatedly
shown that more than three-fourths of
the divorces in the United States are
secured for the purpose of immedi-
ate remarriage. Were the divorce laws
of the country unified upon a basis Of
judicial separation in extreme cases,
with denial to the guilty Of the right
to remarry, the morals of American So
ciety Would be speedily improved and
the rights of blameless wives and help
less children would be better safe
guarded.
