Spanish Nicknames.

One of the peculiar ways In which
Spanish differs from English Is In the
names the language gives TO all peo.
pie with Il certain intirmity or peculiar
lty. A blind man Is referred to as el
ciego, Il man with but one eye Is n
tucrto, pug nosed man Is chato, one
who Is cross eyed Is blsojo, a COLO Is
lame man, and nance has but one
arm. If Ire is humpbackcd, he Is n
jorobndo; If baldhcadcd. calvo, and
If his hair is very short he is pelon.
The feminine titles for the same classes
are the same, with the exception that
they end i'm "a" where the masculine
terminate with 90" These short names
are used most commonly. In fact, they
are applied as nickuamcs In many
cases, and especially among the lower
classes persons are addressed or rc.
ferrcd To only 10y these names.

Like birds. many Gshes assume their

tract the opposite sex Of their species.
The colors OF the male common pike
become exceedingly intense. brilliant

The eel also puts on an intense silvery

LIBRARY SLOW POKES.

Ing to wait long time for books when
applying to public library" said a
Boston literary woman, SHOULD try to
work or study In foreign library, par
ticularly I'm Germany.
"The typical continental librarian
takes no account of time. The reader,
worker or student must turn In his or
her application for books at least day
IN advance. The men who search for
the books applied for are aged, tottcr-
ing creatures who have been shuillnG
around the dusty piles of books for
years, and the word hurry is not In
their vocabulary.
"The most priceless books and man.
uscripts are kept I'm places which are
perfect fire traps. and disorder pre-
dominates I'm every department. When
you speak about the impossible meth
DDS employed the librarians tell you
that they are too poor to introduce any
modern indexes or catalogues. This Is
to some extent so, but as matter OF
fact they would not change If they
had all the money In the world ut their
disposal
"They do not wish to encourage the
common people TO use books. The
learned are among the aristocracy, and
the spread OF the knowledge which Is
hidden in those wonderful literary mu-
seums is far from the purpose OF the
men ut the head of Europe's libraries.
There may be some delay In our IL
braries. but our people In the lower
walks Of life are certainly ahead Of

STAGE SCENERY.
Modern Settings Tax the Ingenuity oi
the Builders.

the Builders.
The big scenic artists do little actual
painting beyond making the model,
That they do themselves. standing Oh
the paint bridge, many feet from the
floor. while the canvas is raised or
lowered. The panoramic effects are
hard to handle. One difficulty is to
avoid huttering when a draft sweeps
across the stage. Mountains that
trcmble hazily are not conducive to
Illusion.
With the elaborate productions OF
late years the Importance Of the build
er Of scenery has increased. says Ev-
erybody's Magazine. Formerly, when
the scenery consisted merely Of can
vas stretched over Il wooden frame. it
was simple enough. But the struggle
for realism and sensational effects has
developed difficult problems for the
builder Of stare scenery to solve.
Every piece Of scenery must he made
so that 1t can be folded into strips five
feet nine inches wide. because the
doors OF the baggage cars I'm which II
is transported are only six feet In
breadth. Also every piece must be
light and SO CONSTRUCTED that one
scene can be removed and another
put in place within ten minutes. 1t
may take thirty hours Of continuous
work to get the scenery "set up" to
use technical expression, after it is
brought into the theatcr. After that
the work OF changing scene Is com
paratively easy.
