ITO the Bitter End"

One of the most interesting phases Of
the study of language is the peculiar
manner in which words and phrases
originating in mistakes finally grow
into the common speech Of the people.
An instance of this is the expression
"to the bitter end" which Is common
ly used to denote the Anal extremity
Of n crisis. Although perfectly proper
today, it is in reality mistake. The
correct phrase is 'to the better end"
and arose from the fact that when a
vessel has paid out all her cable in Il
storm it has run out to the end which
has been little used and therefore to
the better end. Daniel Defoe uses the
proper phrase in "Robinson Crusoe" in
his description of the storm at Var
mouth when he says, 1--WE rode with
two anchors ahead and tee cables veer-
ed out to the better end"

Ducks and Brakes"

The origin of the common saying
Making ducks and brakes with ones
money" Is attributed to Il game de-
scribed in the words of an old writer
as "a kind Of sport or play with an
oister shell or stone thrown into water
and making circles yer it sinke." It
the stone energies once, it is u duck;
if it energies more than once, the game
proceeds according to the following
rhyme:
l.. 2. A duck and a drake;
8. And a halfpenny cake;
4, And penny to pay the old baker:
5, A hop an a scotch
Is another notch;
6, Slitherum, slatherum Take her!
The game is evidently the same as
that played even today by every boy
who has access to pond or Il quiet
river when he tries to make smooth
stone skip along the surface of the
water. Its connection with the pop
ular phrase is, of course, only a meta
phorical one to indicate heedlessness in
the use of money.

HOLLANDS ROYAL PAIR.
Queen Wilhelnina, Prince Henry and
Their Lack of an Heir.

There has been much disappointment
in Holland because Queen Wilhelmina,
popular though she is, has no heir. The
young and beautiful queen Is beloved
by her subjects, and under other cir.
cumstances there would be no talk as
to her leaving the throne which she
graces. But the national existence of
Holland Is threatened by the present
situation. Should the queen die child
less her husband. Henry, prince of the

Netherlands and duke Of Mecklenburg.
would not succeed to the throne. as he
Is barred from it by statute, his Ger
man blood proving an insurmountable
obstacle in the eyes Of Hollanders. The
crown would descend either to the
Grand Duke of SaXe-Weimar or to
Princess Marie of Reuss. and neither Of
them is acceptable to the HOllanders,
because they, too, have German blood.
In case Of a dispute as to the success
sion the queens subjects fear Emperor
William Of Germany might step In and
seize their country, and that ia what
they dread above all things, as they do
not want to lose their nationality;
hence the proposed revision Of the con-
stitution Of Holland in respect to pro-
visions as to the succession. Among
the contemplated changes are those
which direct what should be done in
case Of emergency by the states gen
eral or Dutch parliament to keep the
rulership Of the nation in the hands of
dOlllnOerS.
The commission appointed to revise
the constitution has recommended that
provision be made for possible abdi-
cation Of the present queen, the abdi-
cation to be followed by the accession
to the throne of some prince or prln-
cess either of Dutch blood or imme-
diate Dutch descent Should Wlhel-
nina abdicate and the states general
name successor and the former queen
then give birth to a child Il complicated
situation would be presented. and to
meet this 1t is provided in the revised
constitution that children born after
the abdication of the sovereign shall be
excluded from the throne.
The picture shows the young queen
in the picturesque costume of Holland,
with her husband, Prince Henry.

Ready for the Coup

NOBODY had anything more to say about
Chopemout Clancy's not recognizing the
brainy part O football, and we looked forward
to the game with Whooperup college the next
day with an easy feeling like when You got
pat flush and everybodys DRAWN three cards
We decided to let Chopemout and Leggit
Landers be the halfbacks the next day and
wear the Seven League Boots The game
started with near a million people on hand and
nobody with any idea of the mine were
goin' to spring except us.
We had to kick off, and the Whooperup
fullback hadnt more than ketched the ball than
Leggit and Chopemout were on him with one
Jump. Sayl We opened our eyes a bit when
we saw the way those two boys swished down
the field with those dingy old boots on their
feet. The audience fairly boiled over. The
Whooperups lost the ball on three downs, and
then it was passed to Chopemout, and he gave
one bound, riz up in the air like bird, an
pumped down behind their goal while we were
still rooted in our tracks. =
Then there was circus. The Whooperups
couldn't make it out and the audience couldn't
either, only they were satisfied cause were
winning. They figgered ChoPemout. had steel
springs his feet, or a gasolene in Jine in his
socks, an didn't care, but chewed peanuts
and were happy. We made sixty-four points
on the first half, and the wise college boys that
were going to teach us the game had wrinkles
their high forrids.
But, alas them Seven League Boots were
number mines in size and were pretty tight on
Leggit Landers's number even feet, so be-
tween the halves he takes EN- off to ease up
bit and then he went to git drink, and when
he come back they were gone
Fact Chopemout was most wild over losin
three dollars and seventy-fve cents, first crack
out O the box, with only half run for his
money, you might say, an Sure Eye was dis
tracted because he had fggered one pair o the
boots could last all this season, and the others
could be saved for the next. While we were
searchin' high and low the whistle blows, an
we have to go back on the field

When Boots Met Boots

WE kick off, an their fullback ketches the
w ball as before, an Chopemout springs to
meet him. But merciful fits! What's thisl
The fullback gives spring too, an up in the air
he comes, headin for goal, hair flyin ball
under his arm and sweater streamin', an on
his feet is our second Seven League Boots
We just stood there an gaped up in the air
in astonishment, and then before You could
think. swishing up from behind us, straight for
that fullback, comes Chopemout. Crash
they meet in mid air. right over the center o
the field. Chopemout makes a fair tackle,
ketching his man around the waist. And then
they stop plumb still and hang there.
You see. those boots wanted to go seven
leagues, and they couldn't understand bein
stopped like that SO they just tried to keep on.
and as they were both seven leaguers neither
had any advantage over the other, SO
neither made any Roadway, and neither teller
could get down; for Chopemout wouldn't let
go, and the Whooperup fullback got frightened
and grabbed Chop and wouldn't let go either
So there they stayed, and the crowd comes on
to the field, and everybody is near wild
BY and by we get rope and throw it up.
and they take hold, and pull 'em down
The Whooperup fullback tainted when got
EN- on earth, an Chop, he just looked white
and kicked off the boots
Science is all right" says he; but too
much is no good. Solid ground is good enough
