Passing of the cro.sroads store.


The crossroads store in the southwest
is becoming extinct, says the ST. Louis
Post-Dispatch. The village store is
doomed The small town Is becoming
smaller, and the large town is grow
ing larger. The cause? The multiply
ing mileage of interurban electric
lines. rural delivery, mail order
houses, good roads, bicycles, tele-
phones. This extraordinary result OF
progress toward cosmopolitanism In
the United States is apparent in the
more thickly settled states, but the
whole southwest is undergoing the
change. The difference in the char
acteristics of country folk and city
people is becoming less marked here
about each year. The tendency is to
become more alike, with a consequent
lessening of prejudices. a broader in
telligence, a higher patriotism and a
closer social knitting.

Eccentricacies IN Pronunciation,

If the cultured Englishman wants
to realize how ignorant he really is"
said, Mr.. Andrew Lang the other day,
"let him try to pronounce selected
list of. say q hundred English proper
names. He will certainly be entitled
to pat himself on the back IL he sue
ceeds In pronouncing a score Of them
at all correctly" And, indeed, a score
would be most .credtable proportion,
as our readers will admit before they
have reached the end Of this short arti-
Gle. which may, perhaps, be instruc-
tive as we'll as interesting.
OF course. there are certain eccentric

of the thousands who are familiar
with the names of Mr.. Bourcher, the
actor. or Mr.. Carnegie, the millionaire
phtlanthropist, give them the correct
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and Carnay-
ghie, with the accent on the second
syllable; or pronounce Abergavenny
as Abergenny. Anstruther as Anster.
or Beaulieu as Bewly?
Why, In the name of all that is rea-
sonable, should Home be changed into
Hume and Hotham into Hutham, and
why should Jervis become Jarvis,
while Jervois Is Jervis? Keighley is
pronounced Keely by all except the
good people who live in that York
shire town, and they call it Keethly;
while Keightly is to those who know,
keetly. Pulteney loses the "u" and be-
comes Pole-tny; Magheramorne drops
three letters and 81 abbreviated to
Maramorne; while Ruthven, for some
equally obscure reason is metamop-
rhized into Rivven. Sir Claude de
Crespigny answers to the name Crep-
ping; Lord Bury, heir to the Earl of
Albermarle, Is addressed as Berry:
but Bury, the family name of the ex-
tinct earldom Of CharIeville, is Bewry.
Carew Is Carrie or CARGO, Just as you
please; Cassillis is Cassels; but
Cheyne, as most of us know from the
famous Row of that name, is Cheyney.
Urquhart Is shortened into Urkurt;
Vaux becomes Vox (and nothing
more); the hunter of big game is not
Mr.. Selous, but Mr.. Seloo; Lord
Valletort is Valleytort, and Lord
jerseys family name is villers. Let
us never make the mistake of pro-
nouncing Smith as it is spelled:
Smythe, we must call it, Just as we
must address Mr.. Sandys as Sands:
Mr.. Scrymgeour, that good old Scot
fish name, as Scrimjer, and Mr.,
Tyrwhitt as THRIFT, to rhyme with
spirit. Menzies is not what It seems in
print-it is Ming-les, or Meen-yes;
Meux degenerates into News; while
Lord Wemyss would not know he was
addressed unless you pronounced his
title Weems; you must always call Mr..
Wriothesley either Riothsly or Roxy,
whichever best pleases him. and do
not forget that Mr.. Yerburgh answers

Be sure to pronounce Bellingham
with soft "g"-Bellinjam; Geoghe-

Gay-gun, or Geegun; and st. Leder
as Sillenger; while we must be equal
ly careful to speak of Lord Coke as
Cook; of Mr.. Featherstonhaugh as
Mr.. Festunhaw, or Fanshaw Though
Fetherston-haw would pass mystery
and Lord Ingestre as Ingestry. And,
to give but few more examples of
these eccentric pronunciations, if we
are to pass as men of the world aad of
knowledge, we must never fail to pro-
nounce Foljambe as Fool-jam; vaules
as Voals; Dilwyn .as Dillon; Belvoir
as Beever, and BERTHE as Barty.

cal strength he can command. He
considers that tennis develops the
muscles of the body.
During his periods of recreation,
when not playing tennis, Mr.. Roose-
welt walks or rides in the suburbs of
Washington. He is fond of walking.
There are few men who can stand the
pace he sets. The stranger who tries
it generally takes the next day off to
rest up his WORKOUT muscles. The
president doesn't walk over the beau
tiful driveways and macadamized
streets and roads. He gets far out
and strikes across country, jumping
bitches, climbing hills, lodging limbs
and underbrush and going into the
whole thing for the good that comes
from 1t physically. 1t is not dress
parade affair with him. Rain makes
no difference. Neither does sleet or

his horse when he rides, either.1:.

Tennis is the principal exercise of
the president these bright, warm
spring days. Two &, three times a
week he has hard game just back
of his Office in the White house
grounds. The tennis court is imme-
diately in the rear of the building in
which are located the executive offices.
1t is kept in good condition. A heavy
green screen shuts off a view of the
game from most of the windows of the
state, war and navy building, just
across the street, but clerks go up to
the top story windows and take peep
at the progress of affairs. They get
their moneys worth, too, as the presi-
dent plays the game with all the physi-

much less. but in spite OF that fact the
birth rate in France is still Is per cent
below that Of Germany.

excess Of births over deaths in Germany
during the last year reported on
amounts TO 141a per 1000 inhabitants
while in France il was only 1l5. And
although the other great countries are
considerably above France with regard
TO the natural increase Of population
yet in all cases they are considerably
beneath Germany. The German rate
for the excess Of births over deaths is
only exceeded by some of the minor
states. such as The Netherlands, the
Argentine, Uruguay and some Austral
ian states.
This, too, readily explains the fact
that the density Of the population in
Germany is increasing at a rapid rate
