SLANG Of Other Days.

Slang has always been fruitful
source for the expansion of language
and instances may be multiplied OF
words now respectable which were
once tabooed as vulgarisms. But, on
the other hand. there have been many
slang phrases In use for centuries
which have never become acceptable
to the purists. AS long ago as 1850 tho
celebrated letter writer Horace Wal
pole used to speak Of Sitting guzzling'
and getting drunk as an owl" Then
again in the diary of one Of the most
prominent woman writers Of the eight
zenith century, Frances Burney, are
found good slang phrases Of the Amer
lean college girl Of today, as, for in
stance, II sneaked out" Did you
ever know such toadY and Il had
a vile cold."-St. Louis Republic.

Rochester clergyman was accus.
toned to use scientific terms. which the
people did not understand. A deputa-
ton waited on him with the request
that in the future whenever he used
such terms he would explain them. On
the following Sunday he used the term
hyperbole and added: "As agreed on,
beg to explain this word. Were | to
say that at this moment the whole of
my congregation are sound asleep II
would be hypcrbole, but If | say that
one-half are asleep that is no hyper.
bole, but the truth" The next day the
deputation again called TO say that the
minister need not explain technical
terms. The people would learn theil
meaning from a ictionary.-ROchesteI

The process of storing one of these old
anchors was long and laborious one.
1t was hove close up to the capstan

rope TO hook on huge tackle, by

to be hoisted up horizontally by an

be months before he could be able to
get around, yet there was every hope
and every reason to expect him to

Johnson moved and opened his eyes
slowly as DR.. Dunwiddie entered the
room. Vacant. hollow eyes they were,
with a stare in them which startled
Dolores.
Dr. Dunwiddie was at his side in
stantly. but without a sign of haste.
He is used to your voice, he said
to Dolores, without turning his head.
Speak to him, Miss Johnson. Say
anything to him-anything you are in
the habit of saying"
Dolores came no nearer the bed;
she stood quietly at the window, and
asked in her ordinary voice, slow, I'M

The hollow eyes closed weakly for

crossed over to the bedside. John

old expression of distrust and dislike
in them. She bent over him, and Dr.
Dunwiddie raised his head trifle

to his lips with steady hand and I'M

him the second spoonful he closed his
eyes and endeavored to turn aside his
head, with the su1len expression on
his face, Dolores bent over the bed
and held the spoon steadily to his
lips. as she said, in a tone that thrilled
her listeners by its slow, almost stern
sweetness:
Drink this, father"
He obeyed like a child, and she fed
him carefully according to the doc

her moyeme It's wonderingly. Where
did this girl get her womanly tact?
Surely not from this man upon the
pillows, whose face was indicative of
nothing but a brute nature.
1t was an exquisite morning. Mrs.
Allen was with the doctor, there was
no need of her there, and she went
out and sat on the door-stone in the
shadow of the pines. Leaning her
head against the door'post her hands

The following account Of a six-round
bout between Arthur Cote and Dan

The fastest and most interesting
bcut ever held in this vicinity took
place Wednesday night in this place
when Arthur Cote Of Riddeford and
Dan Littletohn Of st. John, went six
fast rounds to draw before a large

condition and his powerful blows made

he put up a very good article of box

cheers from the crowd.
In the fourth round Cote's right and
left swings did great damage to Little
john and he was saved from a knock
out by the gong. The sports looked for
Cote to put him away in the fifth, but
Dan came back strong and fought
hard and fast for the remainder of the
bout.
Both men were strong at the finish
and they looked as if they could have
gone six rounds more without undue
