Complaint Of vulsarlsm.

Says a writer in the London Chron.
iclo "A vulgarlsm-one which, like
'aggrayate' for 'irritate. has come into
use by way Of the kitchen stairs-is
'demean. with a sense Of derogation
or abasemert 1t is to be seen in
many a paper and even many book
and heard in many a speech It is
the second syllable that has misled
the popular understanding, but the
noun 'demeanor' should have saved
the educated from their blunder with
the verb. When the cook refuses &C.
demean herself she is excusable. be
cause demeanor' is not in her vocab
ulary."

TO CURE HABIT OF nLusHlNa.
Open Air Exercise and companlonshlp
VIII Do II.

WIN 10 We
The habit OF blushing is almost In.
variably cause OF great annoyance TO
Its possessors. Very frequently 1t seri-
ously hampers them in the ordinary
AFFAIRS of life, for blushing is accom-
panied by confusion of mind. nervous
ness and hesltancy. The two main
points in the treatment of shyness,
which is the great cause OF blushing'
are, first, open-air exercise, and, sec
ond, the society of others. 0pen-air
exercise is good for all morbid disor-
ders, such as excessive shyness. while
the social life makes for self-control
and that SAVIOR faire we all seek to
attain; for the latter enables us to go
through life without betraying awk-
wardness and timidity. Abnormally
sensitive people may find the cure
lengthy one but II they persevere the
very mental effort which is put forth
to accomplish the remedy will aid
them in acquiring control over their
tell-tale blushes.-New Orleans Times
