English Words Good Enough.

Lady Violet Greville in the Graphic.
Why do people persist in using French
words when there are good old English
words to serve the purpose? 1t is a habit
that is growing daily. For instance, at
dinner people give you menu" instead
of bill of fair" though the items are
such English dishes as boiled cod, roast
beef and apple tart; one is accommo-
dated with serviette instead Of q nap
kin Gan English word, but originally OF
French origin, as is the Scotch word
napery, used for household linen. When
you enter shop you are served with
eorsets instead stays costumes by a
costumiere instead of dresses by a dress
maker; "blouses" take the place of
shirts OF waists, as the Americans have
1t; and hose are offered for stockings.
The former word is, however, English.
At the theatre we have programmes in
stead of play bills, and matinees in place
of afternoon performances; toe are
adjusted with as much ease as ha,s. and
we eat In a restaurant as cheerfully as
in a dining room. There are, of course,
untranslatable words which must be
used, but our good old English language
is rapidly becoming hoteh-potch of for
eign words. while biography is doing its
best to GUST all the crisp and racy Saxon
speech. Whenever possible let us de-
termine to use an English instead of a
French word, both in literature and con-
yersation.

The Child of the Age.
from the Chicago Journal.

From the Chicago Journal.
Many people are beginning to regret
the fact that a really childish child Is
becoming something of a rarity. There
always have been, and no doubt will
continue to be- those children of abnor-
NAL mental development known as prod
igies. But this year they have been before
the public in astonishing numbers, either
as musicians, poets, artists or preachers,
and perhaps by very reason of being
cverdone, the craze of prodigies will die
a natural death.
A writer enarges on the social rounds
of fashionable children, the at-homes.
the balls, the elaborate suppers, with, in
some instances, champagne, and the va
rious festivities which combine to make
modern children old before their time.
There can be no doubt that late hours,
little sleep and absence of healthy out
door life are all phases to which children
are growing accustomed in too many i'm
stances, though there are many people
whose children-and royalty's in the
front rank-lead natural and simple lives
For in the main children infinitely prefer
simplicity of regime.

MRS. WILLIAM GRAY
ESTES ENTEaTAlNs.

Mrs William Gray Gray Estes enter
tanned yesterday at the first of a series OF
bridge whist parties, the occasion as
sembllng thirty guests. Her charming
house on Nineteenth street presented a
bright and beautiful picture, the decora-
tons Of holly with its scarlet berries and
green foliage suggestive of the Yuletide
season. The score cards were most at
tractive and the most effective decora-
ton was that about the beautiful old
fireplace in the reception hall, where
small red stockings were hung, from
which the consolation was drawn.
The prizes were very handsome and IN
cluded a cut-glass bowl and vase
A delicious luncheon was served about
o'clock, and coffee was served in the
DINING room by Mrs. James Weatherly
and Mrs. William B. Leedy
Mrs. Estes was notably handsome IN
white. She received alone.
The occasion was in every way a
charming one the perfect afternoon being
an opportunity for every woman to wear
her smartest afternoon gown and her
furs.
Mrs. Estes will give her second bridge
party this afternoon at 2:8o o'clock in
compliment to Mrs. Charles Caldwell and
Mrs. Allan Harvey Woodward.

A Queer Sensation.

From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat
ut is singular fact" says Mr.. A. Roy
Knabenshue, that when one is going as
much as fifteen or twenty miles an hour
in an airship one has no sensation of
moving whatever. The air beats In your
face as you move along, but 1t only ore
ates the impression that one is standing
still in a strong breeze. There are no OBJ
jects flying past you as when you are
travelling on the surface of the earth,
and as you must keep your eyes looking
ahead of you you observe only distant OBJ
jects, so distant because of your high
point of view that you approach them
apparently SO slowly you do not seem to
move at ALL 1 consider this one of the
queerest sensations in a trip through the
air, and the impression of scarcely NOV
ing or of not moving at all is so strong
even on the most experienced aeronaut
that 1t is probably due to this so many
of them push their motto to the extreme
limit and it dies in consequence. When
a speed gauge is invented for an airship
1t will cause fewer break downs Of mo-
tors due to crowding power
