HOW WORDS CHANGE.
A knave Was Once a Lad and a vii.
lain Only Peasant.

In the New York panic of 1857
Frenchman declared that he should
lose all his ''propricty." 1t sounds
like something to laugh at. Never
thelcss property and "propricty"
have the same French derivation.
Words have a knack of shifting not
only from their sources, but also
out of their own original meanings.
We accept an anecdote as short
diverting story. Etymologically it
means something as yet unpub-
lished.
To prevent, which is now to hin
der, meant in its Latin original to
anticipate.
A girl was ancicntly a young per-
son of either sex.
Mountebank was the term applied
Of old to the patent medicine vend-
er who mounted Il bench TO pro-
claim his wares. 1t is from the
italian.
Paradise in oriental tongues
meant only royal ark.
Astonished means literally thun-
derstruck, coming from "attonare. ;"
A knave was once merely a lad
and a villain only a peasant.
TO be silly was in it's ancient
sense to be blessed.
To be of1icious was to be cour-
tcously ready to do kindly office.
If man was facetious, in the
early English, he was but urbanc.
An idiot was a private citizen as
distinguished from an ofliccholder.
Frontispiccc, if considered from
its Latin source, is not a picture in
the front Of a book, but the front
view of something. The Latin word
is frontispicium.
Beldam is not an abusive term
in it's French source, but means a
fair lady.
Shamcfaccd comes from good
Anglo-Saxon term which means not
one exhibiting shame, but one pro
tectcd by shame, being therefore in
nocent and modcst.-New York

Careful Upbrineing.

While having dinner at friend
home one evening little George rc'
fused, with self conscious dignity
several unwholesome dishes which
William, his tiny host, devourcc
with relish.
Finally, when William began tc

George eyed him wistfully for /;
long time. Then, leaning his head
on his hand, with sigh, he said:

Capturing a Lion,

While the agent Of Campbell
Bros. great Consolidated Showsl
which will exhibit in Greenwood,
October Sd, was in our Office, he
related a story of the capture of IN
African lion in its native forest.
Lee Sycle, tho purchasing agent
of the show. made a trip to Africa
to try to secure some wild animals
for the menagerie. While there the
natives told him of q male lion that
had evaded capture for four years,
and Mr.. Sycle Immediately offered
q largo sum for the capture of the
animal, and the natives began At
once to plan how to secure the
reward.
First, a large circular pit was
dug, about fifteen feet deep, and oil
the dirt from the excavation wac
carefully carried away, as a lion is
very suspicious. The hole was then
thoroughly covered with light brush
and grass and made to appear a. If
the ground had never been touched.
The next step was to secure some
object tempting enough to attract
Mr.. Lion to tho place. A live lamb
was brought and hung up by .
string cord from the limb of a tree
that reached out over the covered
pitt All these preparations wore
made late in the evening.
That night the monarch of the
forest, while stalking for prey,
heard the lamb bleating and made .
spring for it. Catching it, of
course the string broke, and the
lion and the lamb both went crash
ing down into the pit.
At daybreak the natives brought
q large net, which they threw down
over the lion in the pit. In his
rage at being caught and his efforts
to claw his way free from tho net
covering him, he only got more
tangled up in it, till at last he was
so thoroughly enmeshed that the
natives had little trouble in placing
him a strong crate, and he was q
captive.
The Campbell Brothers thus
secured what is considered to be
the finest specimen of On African
lion in America today.
Be sure and see him when they
exhibit at Greenwood on Monday,
| October three.
