Poor 10 Today.

From the Miami Record.
Among the novelties meeting the eyes
of our northern visitors today, but COM
mon to home folks, was that of full
blooded Indian riding I'm a carriage with
negro driving. This Indian rejoices in
the poetic name of Tommy Tiger, and is
always dressed in the gaudy costume so
dear to the Indian heart. Tommy is fine
specimen of his race. and sits back in the
carriage with the dignity and composure
of one to the manner born. To those who
have been accustomed to see some of the
tribes of our northwestern states the fine
persons, cleanliness and agreeable coun-
tenances of the Seminole Indians are quite
a revelation.

Cat Lauuhter?

What was the origin of the phrase
enough to make cat laugh?" DR.. Muir.
rays dictionary notices only enough to
make cat speak, which is explained
as signifying something extraordi-
nary, especially something very good
to drink "Old liquor able to make a
cat speak" is quoted from an early
eighteenth-century source, and there.
with Stephano's remark to Caliban is
compared: "Open your mouth; here
is that which will give language to
you, cat" Miss Squeers' maidservant
said that only to see Miss Squeerb'
friend, Miss Price, toss her head was
enough to make a Tom-cat talk
French grammar" But even that is
not exactly laughing. Has it anything
to do with the mythical Cheshire ami.

The sneer is an arrested bite. 1t
is mark of the savage. 4 The man
who sneers is that much less of a gen.
tleman. The sneerer would bite If
he was not afraid to do so He is a
coward. The sneerer is a savage
whether he sneers in print or not If
he writes down his sneers he has not
removed himself from the ranks of
savagery. He yet remains one of the
worst savages, however his English
be polished and his style be sparkling.
The sneer does turn into bite when
even the savage who INDUCES in it ac.
quires courage. While he is coward
it remains an arrested bite.-Colum.
