Exchanged Words.

Curious exchanges of words some. times take place between two Ian. guages. Thus English has borrowed the French's ''poseur" and has given to France ''snob" in trade, French men have way of taking polysyl- labic word and using half of it. Thus of "steeplechase" they have appropri- ated ''steeple" and now the French sportsman" speaks of mounting a steeple" when he means to ride race over the customary obstacles. A smok- ing jacket is with him smoking and sleeping car is sleeping"
