Pencil Sketch Plans Gave No
Idea of What the Build

FLED WITH PROPOSED coNTAG-
ION HOSPITAL.

John L. Rupe, of the trustees Of
Reid hospital, makes the following
statemen. about the contagion ward
at the hospital:
at meetingof the board of trustees
held some time ago committee was
appointed to conider the matter of a
new building. 1t was not committee
of doctors, but was composed of Mr.
Eggemeyer and Mr.. Deuker from the
boar dof trustees, Dr. Davis and DR..
" ampler, from the staff and DR.. Bond
city health officer DR.. Davis submit
ted pencil sketch giving his idea of
what the building should be. 1t pro-
vided four rooms with a central chin
ney, withoutsided oors to each room,
the building one story with the roof ex-
tending down to make shed porch all
around the building. There was no
practical provision for any one going
into the building. that is no place was
provided for friend of the patient,
none for linens or working place.
The Board, through it's committee
and the city health officer had pre-
pared the plans for building on the
site of the present stone building. Last
Wednesday evenin gthe board invited
the members of the city council, the
mayor of the city and the medical staff
and submitted these plans to all to-
gether talked of them, invited criti-
cism of them, had them explained by
Mr.. Kaufman, the architect, and DR..
Bond, the city health officer. 1t is not
true that the members of the medical
staff were not invited to this meeting
They were invited in the usual way,
viz: The president and secretary of the
staff was directed to notify all the
members to attend the meeting, and
six or eight of the staff members act
ually attended. No objection was Of
fered to the plans by any one present,
member of council, or member of the
Medical staff. DR.. Bond, the city
health officer. was asked at this meet
was any objection TO the use of the
present building as proposed from a
sanitary standpoint, and he stated
there was no objection on that ground,
and there was no dissent from this
view by any one present.
The publication in the Palladium
is the first intimation which has come
to the board of trustees that the plans
were objected to for any reason by any
member # the staff. Where the

Professor Sksat on the Proper Pronun-
citation Of the Word.
Instead of trusting to casual observ-
ers, it Is far better to understand the
principles. that govern our pronuncia-
ton. There 10 one principle in par
ticular which. rightly considered, gives
us a good deal Of help in the instance
under consideration.
In my Primer Of English Etymol-
ogy" I give some simple rules of &C
eentuation. Rule l is as follors:
when the length of a word is aug
mented an original long vowel is apt
to be shortened by the accentual stress
falling upon it," Such augmentation
Is due to the formation of q derivative
An easy example is seen in the case
Of cone. pronounced with long 90"
for If we form a derivative by adding
the suff1x sic" the result is comic, with
q short 90
There is a general principle that af-
fects the whole language and sets up
a standard habit. By way of illustra-
ton, compare bile with bilious. crime
with criminal, brake and bracken, dine
and dinner, mine and mineral, coal and
collier and perhaps at least seventy
more. A remarkable instance is seen
In collie, which is merely a new pro-
nunciation of coaly. Certain dogs
We're once called coaly dogs because
Of their coal black markings. An ex-
tension of the same principle may be
made in comparing the dissyllabic
forms agent and cogent with the allied
trysyllables agitate and cogitate.
When once such a principle has be-
come general it is obvious that q word
like pageant will be Influenced by the
very large number Of dissylla bles that
have the former vowel short. and this
is why the truly normal pronunciation
Of the word resemb les the "a" in Paget
I do not certainly know the origin of
that name. but ! suppose 1t is merely
the diminutive of page. in which the
"a" Is shortened as matter Of course
simply because the diminutive let" has
been added.
The pronunciation of primer has Of
ten been discussed. and many are they
who think that they clinch the matter
by saying that the 81" in the Latin
pTlinuS l. iouS, loI tuat proves HULL
ing at all as regards modern English,
and those who have studied our Pc
culiar ways with the closest attention
are well aware that the normal way
is, after all. to pronounce 1t as If it
were spelled primmer. We do not
therefore spell it with double m" be-
cause that Is not our system. We write
tonic and comic and mimic In order to
show their connection with tone and
cone and mime. and we trust that the
unfortunate reader, after he has thus
had the etymology explained TO him.
will provide the pronunciation for him
self. Such a word as pageant may be
usefully compared with magic and
tropic and agitate.-London Academy.

THE CRITIC.

A mud turtle sat on a stone in the sun,
And blinked in a slow. stupid way;
A vain little fly
Came lettering by.
He stopped on that rock to say:
You're the ugliest creature that ever I
saw.
You are clumsy and stupid and slow,
And just how you manage a living at all.
Is a thing should much like to know"
But the little mud-turtle spoke never a
word
As he sat in the sun on the stone;
He YEARLY blinked,
He thought as he winked.
That a wise fly would let him alone.
But the fly had grown proud of his pow
er to torment.
And he buzzed at the mud-turtle's head
Till the turtle at last gave one short lit
tie snap.
And the critical insect was dead.
1t was really too bad that the fly never
knew
That the turtle was wiser than he:
For a creature that thinks
AS ii winks and ii blinks,
May a dangerous enemy be.
And because one can chatter. and buzz,
and annoy
Ills no proof he is clever or wise.
He may do no more good than TO serve
as the food
For the one whom he feigns to despise.
