use Short Words.

Literary aspirants should religiously
eschew polysyllabic orthography. The
philosophical and pathological substruc-
ture of this principle Is ineluctable.
Excessively attenuated verbal SYM
bols inevitably induce unnecessary
complexity and consequently exagger-
ate the obfuscation Of the mentality OF
the peruser. Conversely, expressions
which are reduced to the furthermost
minimum of simplifcation and COM
pactness, besides contributing realistic
verisinilitude, constitute much less
onerous handicap to the readers per-
spicacity.
Observe, for instance, the unmistak-
able and inescapable expressiveness OF
onomatopoetic, interjectional, mono
syllable utterances, especially when
motivated under strenuous emotional
circumstances. How much more ap-
pealing is their euphonious pulchritude
than the preposterous and pretentous
pomposity Of elongated verbiage.-Life.

A Shock For Tennyson.

! II any one asked Holman Hunt
about persons he would tell delightful
frank anecdotes concerning, maybe,
the great men he knew and loved and
measured exactly. He liked spice of
fun In everything, too, and his face
beamed as he described walk with
Tennyson he had lately taken. They
heard footsteps behind, and the great
man frowned. GLOW they dog us,
Hunt! How shall we escape them?"
"Just sit on the stile till they pass"
said the matter Of fact artist. They
cid so, and two lads in knickerbo
marched by swinging their sticks and
not even turning their heads. Tenny-
son was chapfallen.
"Do you know, Hunt" he said, II do
not think they know who I am"
every likely, my dear Tennyson, and
they would not even know If you
told "Recollechons Of Holman
Hunt in London Academy.

"A playwright in an interview in New
York said that without attention to the
minutest details theatrical success
could rarely be attained.
"And yet" he added, smiling, "even
this grand virtue Of attention to de-
tails may be carried to excess. Thus
certain playwright said at rehearsal
to his leading man:
"'Now, remember, John, after you
speak this line, "Helen, will save you
though I PERISH" pause and wait for
the applause
"But the leading man sneered and
answered cynically:
".How do you know there'll be any
applause?
"'That is my business. not yours,
John,' the playwright answered with
ca;m confidence" Washington Star.

and neither to matches nor husk do
they give the slightest heed, striking
the one recklessly over their own skirts
or absentmindedly resting the other
against the skirts Of their neighbor.
Yet in spite Of this utter recklessness
never did see skirt catch fire. One
month at longest is the life Of wom-
ans dress; then the old skirt Is burned
and brand new one plated, with no
tedious fittings at the dressmakers
