did the former, and one whose school op
portunities have been quite limited is oapa-
bic of walking beside the latter in this
respect. AS regards ideas and ability to
express them, however, the difference may
be world wide.
The foregoing facts seem to warrant
these general conclusions: Every well-read
person of fair ability and education will
be able to define or to understand as used,
nearly or quite, perhaps more, than $1,000
words. And the same person in conversa
ton and writing will command not fewer
than $1,000 to 10000, and can add 5000 to
10000 to these numbers If he be literarily in
clined. The plain people, as Lincoln liked
to call them, use or read understandingly
from 5000 to 10000 words according to their
general intelligence and conversational
power, while a person who cannot read,
but who has a good degree of native men,
tai ability will command about 5000
Lastly, person who has not the use of at
least 5000 words is an ignoramus, who will
find difficulty in expressing his thoughts,
If indeed he has any to express.

buried in these cemeteries, but not many,
and the regular army since the war has
contributed to the number of graves In
many Of the cemeteries, especially those

the Indians were numerous in the years
following the great civil war.
The number of unknown makes up a
large fraction of the total of burials rep

This last contains the largest proportion
of unknown graves Of any of the large
cemeteries. The dead of the Spottsylvania
and Wilderness battlefields lie buried there.

THE WORDS YOU KNOW.
A Conclusion Quite Different from
that Ordinarily Made.

There often appears In print an item
which reads somewhat like this: An ordi-
nary man will say everything that any oc--
casfon calls for with vocabulary of 1000
words. OF these he commonly uses but
400 or zoo, reserving the remainder for the
emergency of an idea out of his usual line
of thought.
In accordance with this is statement
once made by speaker at an educational
meeting: 1.-The best educated person in
this room will not use more than 600 or
700 words" And he added that an ignorant
man would use not more than 800 or 400.
Some years ago a writer in the Chautauqua
said: 1T is estimated that an English
farmland has a vocabulary limited to 800
words. An American workman who reads
the newspapers may command from 700
to 1.O00 words. Five thousand is a large
number, even for an educated reader or
speaker" This Is a step forward, yet it
still seems far cry to Shakspeares
cabulary of 15,0OO words, or even to Milton's
5000 :
Anyone may, with little trouble, esti-
mate the number of words whose meanings
would be plain to him in print or in speech.
OF the writer's vocabulary an estimate
tionary was used because almost all un-
usual words would thereby be at once
eliminated. Under each letter of the, al
phaDet a page more of words was Sc
lected at random and counted. A separate
record was kept of primitive and deriva-
tive words. That is, among the former was
put measure; among the latter, measurable,
measurableness, measurably, measured,
measureless, measurement, measurer, un-
measurable and unmeasured. Compound
words, whose meanings were clearly indi-
Gated by their component, were omitted;
as, clockword, draft-horse, hard-earned.
Counting in this way an average of twen-
ty primitive and thirty-five derivative
words was found on each page. This would
make, there being S14 pages of vocabulary
in the dictionary, a total of 1920 of the
former and $3.50 of the latter, or almost
45 900 in all.
Next was taken page in each letter and
on 1t were counted the words which 1t
seemed any person of average intelligence
would be able to use and understand. On
twenty-four pages there were 26s primitive
words and 221 derivative. OF nearly 1900 in
all of the former and more than 1000 of
the latter And lastly was made count
of very common words, such as even a
poorly educated person could hardly escape
knowing, and they were found to number
500 primitive and 1900 derivative. No
proper names were included in any of the
countings. 1t would therefore seem to fol-
low if what we are told of the vocabu-
laries of Shakespeare and Milton be cor
rect. that a person of average education
to-day knows at least as many words as

Paine'S Celery
Compound
Permanently Cures Sick and
Nervous Headaches that
Make Life Miserable.

Sick and nervous headaches are amonc,,
the worst ills of life The man or woman WIZ
is subject to headache at irregular interval,
goes through life bearing a load of miserv
and wretchedness that is terrible to think
of.
Headaches as a rule, result from dis.
ordered condition of the nervous system
Mental excitement, loss of sleep, bodily
fatigue, and disordered digestion are EXCITING
causes. When the brain becomes tired and
debilitated, the whole nervous system is weak.
ened, and headaches result. If the liver is
sluggish, the kidneys inactive, and digestion
deranged, headaches invariably follow. To
cure and prevent headache, the nervous sys.
tenn must be strengthened and vitalized,
The most persistent cases of headache, nervous
feebleness, and sleeplessness, are permanently
cured by Paine's Celery Compound; it is The
great reconstructant of the nervous system.
Mrs. Henry Westrick, ST. Clair, Mich, tells
of her release from suffering as follows.-

sick headache for number of years. About

The distracting headaches from which
50 many women suffer make life daily

ache as women do, business would be
almost at a stanstill. Does not the fact
that men do not suffer from these severe

womanly cause for themf
When the womanly organism is dis
eased, headache, backache, nervousness
