To James WEaitcorr1b Riley.

He did not sing inspired with Heavens fire;
His notes no deep reverberations held
OF Love and Passion; he scorned the lovers ire
To sing the humble songs he knew so well.
He sung of times of clearer twitterings
In orchard lands of long ago;
OF fragrant days in spring, of truant winds
That played where ancient rosebuds grew
The fragrance Of the rose and violet,
The CLEAN of rosy fruit mid clouds of white and pink
fingers in his happest music yet,
To break the chains of baser musings link by link
And now he sings Of days in sunny June
OF himself barefoot boy, wandering
Over hill and dale, or in the lazy afternoon
Sleeping meath the trees where wild birds sing.
And now of other types we used to hail;
The plowboy, free to h1lt his lusty span
And mock the blackbrds chattering in the dale
Or trail the rougish woodchuck to its den.
Master Artist With tints full and true
AS Autumn through the Book Of Nature spreads
He paints the human character
And knits our hearts to his with golden threads!

Tautology Is a dreadful offense.
Anyone guilty OF tautology should be
slapped thrice on the vocabulary and
looked askance at and treated with
hauteur.
II you say the same thing two or
three times, II you repeat the same
thought In different words. you COM
NIT tautology. While II Is not SO serl'
GUS as bigamy. granddaughter or may
hem Il is to be avoided.
Many people, some OF them women.
are SO full OF words that they spill
them out recklessly. There are plenty
of words. of course; there's no spe-
cial need of vocabulary conservation.
But we might consider economy OF
time and energy. not to mention clear
ness and conciseness OF conversation
al or literary style.
Thus. TO come to the point, why
should We say that Mrs. Bridegroom's
house Is completed and ready for
occupancy" II it's ready for occu-
pancy, it's completed, of course. so
completed" Is Pathological, or un-
necessary.
Why say that "Ananias was not dis
tinguished for truth and veracity?'
Truth" means the same thing az
"veracity" and SO the meaning II re-
peated without advantage.
We commit such faults continually.
Consider the following examples, IN
which the unnecessary or tautologicai
words are placed In parentheses:
An address (delivered) by; another
(one); anxiety (of mind; both OF
them); cannot be (possible); cost
(the sum of: chorus (of singers);
from Tan attack Of pneumonia; from
that time (on); equanimity (of
mind); for drinking (purposes). en-
joyed (himself att the; as soon as
(ever); deprecated Tin value); In
tents land purposes); great (bigl; IN
(the town of Salem; little loit OF
a.; nodded (his head; grove (or
trees); funeral Of (the late); man
(who was presently saw.
Now, just go back. IL you Will. ana
run through these phrases. hitting
them into any sentences you like, ana
observe how much heater, stronger
and more pleasing they sound when
the words in parentheses are omitted.
It seems that. In general, the simpler
a statement Is, the more admirable IL
Is. II gets the thought SO much more
easily and directly from one mind to
another. And that's the purpose or
language.
Have you ever heard such expires.
sions as Jan. LIST. at meeting held
ON that date?" Or the secretary

those words are unnecessary.
