Niagara Is a Huron Word.

Everybody pronounces Niagara
wrong" said philologist. 1.-THE &C
cent of this beautiful Indian word
should not be put on the syllable 'ag,
but on the syllable 'ar'-the penult--
the one before the last.
Niagara means bark to the thun-
der Its accent should fall on the
penult because the Indians them
selves accent it there, because in prac-
tically all our Indian names of places
the penult is the accented syllable.
Think of the Indian names you
know. Don't you accent nearly all of
them on the syllable before the last?
There are, for instance, Toronto, Mis-
sissippi, Allegheny, Appalachicola,
Narragansett, Tuscaloosa, Saratoga,
Ticonderoga, Oswego, Conshohocken,
Wissahickon and Hochelaga. In all
these names the accent is on the
penult.
Niagara is Huron word, and, II
you find a Huron, you will find that
he accents it as he does Saratoga or
don't know how we
nave fallen into the habit Of accenting

There's Not a Joy.

There's not joy the world can give like
that it takes away,
When the glow of early thought declines
in feelings dull decay:
IT'S not on youths smooth cheek the
blush alone which fades so fast.
But the tender bloom of heart Is gone
ere youth itself be past
Then the few whose spirits float above
the wreck of happiness
Are driven Ger the shoals of guilt or
ocean of excess;
The magnet of their course Is gone, or
only points in vain
The shore to which their shivered sail
shall never stretch again.
Then the mortal GOODNESS Of the soul like
death itself comes down;
1t cannot feel for others woes, it dare
not dream its own;
That heavy chill has frozen DER the
fountain of our tears,
And though the eyes may sparkle still
tits where the ice appears.
Though wit may flash from fluent lips,
and mirth distract the breast,
Through midnight hours that yield no
more their former hope Of rest;
TITS but as ivy leaves around the ruined
turret wreath,
All green and wildly fresh without, but
worn and gray beneath.
Oh, could feel as have felt. or be what
I have been,
Or weep as could once have wept DER
many a vanished scene;
AS springs in deserts found seem sweet
all brackish though they be,
So, midst the withered waste of life.
those tears would flow to me.
-Lorn Byron.

Automatic Coupling.

There is probably no other occupa.
ton for men which shows such large
list of accidents and deaths in COM
parison with the number of employees
as railroading and If there is one
branch Of this business which is more
dangerous than another it Is the
coupling of cars in the yards at the
terminals and freight sidings. OF
course, the introduction of the auto
matte couplers has reduced greatly
the number Of accidents from this
source, but 1t is still necessary for an
employee to station himself at each
junction of the cars, to manipulate
the coupler head by means of the
lever on either car and in this there
is chance Of a mishap unless he is
cautious.
Perhaps the largest number of
couplings is made between the switch.
Ing engine and cars It is to draw and
for this work there has just been in
troduced an automatic arrangement
which enables the engineer to connect

without leaving his cab. Within easy

spokes are apparent as a mere blur,
