The Origin of Bridge.

Where does Bridge come from? Per sia is said to have given us the game of poker, and Turkey. according to k F. Foster author of Fosters Com plete Bridge was the home of this latest popular card game. MT Foster says in his preface: Bridge would seem to be a combination or outgrowth of various other games, notably Gere- lasch, Siberia and Preference. A game very much like bridge has long been nopular in Holland, ard all the elements of it are to be traced in many of the older games of cards. The name Is supposed to be derived from the word .britch.' which is popularly believed to be a Russian word, but there is no such word in the Russian language. The game itself is generally credited to the East. and is said to have long been popular in Constantinople, smyrna and southeastern Europe" MT Foster gives 1893 as the date of the first ap- pearance of the game in America, when It's principles were explained to some members of the New York Whist Club by Mir. Henry 1, Barby. an incident which resulted in the withdrawal of a large number of members who wish ed to play bridge to the exclusion of reg ular whist. and the formation of the Whist Bridge Club of New York. Ac- cording to the Encyclopedia Brittanica. bridge was first played in England about 1880, but did not really become popular until 1892.

It shows how young man, with aggresstveness and a conscience can beat the machine to standstill and wins for himself more than the machine dared give him because he was honest. Ray Stannard Baker continuing his series, "The Rail- TO ids on Trial" tells the astonishing story of how Armour, through his pri- vate car line monopolfzed the fruit transportation business of America. practically told the railroads that they might as we'll burn their own refriger- ator cars, and, turning to the shipper reaped a golden harvest by daring and open methods. Then he writes of the revolt of honest shippers against Ar mour An editorial under the title Manufacturing Public Opinion" lets in a little light on the shadows or the publicity making methods which has gilded the rotten structures or the ll1e insurance companies. and of the get rich-quick- -and-get rich att any cost corporations; and 1t lets the public gaze on the publicity men, fooling some ed itors and buying others, but always drawing the wool over the eyes of pay ing citizens, of whose press they try to make trust trumpet.

"wouId Betterp or OHnd Better.

'WOuIu beuteE" or "ftun BetreF.
 The use of would better" instead of had better" and that of none with the plural or singular verb, are some of the idiosyncrasies of language dis cused by Professor Lounsbury, of Yale, in Harpers Magazine for February. With his usual fearless candor the au- thor assails those who attempt to ''schoolmaster" the speech by dsre- garding the usage of the best writers and advancing instead their own indi- vidual pedantic theories. Professor Lounsbury points out that had better" Is used by the Bible, Shakespeare, Mil ton, Bacon and Browning-except in a certain poem where Browning changed it to "would better" to please the mag isterial authority" of Landor, whose Judgment in matters of language Pro- lessor Lounsbury ayers was more whimsical than authoritative. He fur ther attacks those word critics who in- sist upon marking back to the words derivation to find it's true meaning-a method which. as many students know. does not always stand the test of time. For instance, the word December must from its derivation stand for the tenth month, but any schoolboy will deny that it does.

The birthplace of Henry Harland.

Such is the information given in Who's Who. but Mir. Harland himself is the authority for the statement that 1t Is inaccurate MT. Harland was born, as Who's Who states, in 1861, but the question of the place is complicated by the fact that MT. Harland himself dis agrees with the records. Before a court of law, MT. Harland would have had to confess that he was born in prosaic Brooklyn, but otherwise would never admit it. He always claimed as the place of his nativity.

Even the naval display will run into history. Alongside the modern men-of- war and some of the latest types of
 modern transatlantic passenger steam CTS there will be anchored reproduc- tions of all craft made by man from the earliest ages-triremes, such ves- sells as brought the Jamestown settlers over in the seventeenth century, the caravels in which Columbus and his fol- lowers crossed the sea in the fifteenth century, and so, through the entire range of marine architecture.

But, then, "'tis their vocation, tis no sin for a man to labour in his vocation"
 The writer has chosen for the theme of his story that interesting period of French. history when the Duke of Maine and the Duke of Orleans were contend ing for the regency of France. Al though the King had appointed the Duke of Maine to be guardian of the young Louis XIV. who was then but years old, he proved to be no match for the interruptions, but talented, Philip of Orleans. who claimed the re- gency as the oldest legitimate prince of the blood. It is at this point the story opens, and discloses such inter esting personae as Philip of Orleans, the Duchess du Maine and Richelieu In their various plots and counterplots for chief power
 Jean de Brancas is the new soldier of fortune" introduced to the reader. He has gone penniless to Paris to seek his fortune, and has the good luck to form a compact with the young Rich elieu, in return for services thus rend- cred Richelieu has promised to advance de Brancas fortunes.
 With delft, but sure, touch the Duch- ess du Maine is placed upon the canvas. A granddaughter of the great Condo, she had been compelled to marry the Duke du Maine, Louis XIV.s eldest son by Madame de Montspan This dis grace had beeAD in a degree mitigated by the King declaring the Duke com petent to ascend the throne. Madame du Maine at once begins to plot to wrest the Government from the Regent Philip of Orleans. Iris to her brilliant salon, famous all over France, that Richelieu carries de Brancas soon after meeting him. 'Tis there that he makes the intriguing Duchess the promise which involves him in all sorts of scrapes, but he is ably seconded al- ways by his new friend. de Brancas, who proves no "carpet knight" for sooth. but one able to use his wits and his sword both to good advantage, as l the occasion calls for.
 | De Brancas Is smart enough to escape | from the Bastile, and not only to plan | a way out for himself and Richelieu l but to get back and destroy all trace | of the means employed, This Is very l puZzling to the spies of the regent, | tor they are quite sure they have dis l covered secret meeting between Rich l elieu and the daughter of the Regent
 Being unable to capture either de Bran cas or Richelieu. they posthaste to the
