He Used to Be One Engaged Exelu.
sively In Foreign Commerce.
Originally the term merchant was
applied only TO one who traded with
foreign countries and who owned OF
chartered ships for that purpose
Chaucer's "Marchaunt:"
He wolde the see were kepud for eny-
thinRe
Betwixe Middulburgh and Orewelle.
The merchant of Venice had ION the
ocean" his "argosies with portly SAIL"
and so had all the other merchants
about whom poets or historians have
written. So also in the Bible there is
no confusion about the meaning OF the
word. One passage alone will serve as
an illustration, "She is like the mer-
chants shlps-she bringeth her food
from afar" proverbs XXI, Ia. De
Quincy, writing in the early part OF
the nineteenth century C'Autobiograph-
ic Sketches'D, says:
"My father was n merchant, not In
the sense Of Scotland, where ii means
a retail dealer-one. for instance, who
sells groceries In the cellar-but In the
English sense, a sense vigorously ex-
clusive-that is, he was a man en-
gagged In foreign commerce and no
other, therefore In wholesale COM
merce and no other"
But now 1t is no longer necessary to
''plow the Spanish main" to give one
this time honored title. for any one
who sells eggs by the dozen or flannel
by the piece is at once put down as a
merchant.-London Notes and Queries.

DAVIS session yesterday at the Ameri-
can Museum of Natural History, Sew
entv-seventh street and Central Park
West
Miss Maud Summers, Of Cincinnati,
who conducted a special conference on
"Story Telling in the Playground" &C.
iivered an address in which she attack
ed the comic sections of the Sunday
newspapers. She deplorad the publica-
tion in them of pictures having as the
basis of their humor the playing Of
practical jokes. and said that the SUD-
plements were Towering the standsrd
of literary appreciation and she didn't
think children should he taught e.

an upper window upon an apple woman
or outwit an old man.
Miss Beiderhase. who is a teacher OF
physical training in the New York
public schools held conference on
Athletics for Girls" and number
OF the delegates read papers on the
subject. The conference favored in-
door baseball, volley bah and captain
ball as good sports for girls, under
modified rules.
DR. Henry s. Curtis. secretary Of the
Playground Association of America.
outlined the plans which the play
ground workers Of Washington. d. c.,
are successfully carrying out to get
the children to take an interest in sys-
tematized athletics.
At DR.. Curtis's conference IL waa
pointed out what troubles playground
officials have in securing boomers for
their girls. Here in New York. it was
said. It is absolutely necessary that
girls wear bloomers on the Fairgrounds
in the open air. but it is difficult to get
parents to consent TO the use Of bloom
ers by the girls. and when the consent
is obtained II is hard to find the bloom
ers. The girls, as a rule, are too poor
to supply their own blocmers. SWIM
ming pools in the Fairgrounds were
also advocated.
