GRAM MAR

The most celebrated scholar Of his
time described grammar as consisting
of twenty-six parts, to-wit: Words,
letters, sylIables. clauses, dictions,
speeches, definitions, feet, accent,
punctuation, signs, spelling, analog;es,
CLOSES, differences, barbarisms, sole
cisms, faults, metaplasms, schemata,
tropes, prose, meter fables and his
tories
The time, to be sure, was that CT
Charlemagne, when scholarship was
not in a fourishing state; and Alculn,
whom the emperor set up to be school
master of Europe, could hardly pass"
in the second grade of a country dis
trict school nowadays.
For all that, a majority of our pub
lie schools still teach grammar pref
ty much as Alcuin taught it. We still
tell our youths that language con-
sists of metaplasms, tropes, prose,
meter, some fifteen or twenty differ
ent sorts of verbs, adjectives and ad-
verbs-each nicely distinguished
from the other by rules having excep-
tions which apply to more cases than
the rules themselves apply to. Our
bin is of different shape and con-
tains a somewhat different assert
ment of dry bones, but it is just as
appetizing as Alcuin's.
The best grammatical definition
was written by Heine, who said that
the important difference between reg
ular and irregular verbs is that the
latter cause youngsters more whip
pings. Probably this is the only diff
ference that any college graduate not
professionally engaged in teaching
grammar was ever able to remember
when he had been ten years out of
school.-Saturday Evening Post.

TO SELL CHRISTMAS STAMPS

A special from Richmond, Va, says
"a million dollars from Red Cross
seals this Christmas" is the cry of
the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis, which finds an answer in the slo-
gan of the State AntiTuberculosis AS
ISOLATION, Ten thousands dollars to
fight the white plague in Virginia"
The State Anti-Tuberculosis Asso-
citation, which has conducted the sale
of Red Cross Christmas seals in vir-
ginia during the past two winters has
the seals, and it's officers are busily
engaged today in shipping the little
tokens of good cheer to all parts of
the state
In every locality the proceeds Of
the sale are divided between the ma
tional, the state and the municipal
agencies fighting the white plague. III
Richmond, for example, a small part
of the revenue goes to the state asso-
citation, small part to the state as
ISOLATION, small part to the national
war on disease, and half the procea ds
will go to the support of Pine Camp,
and the instructive visiting nurses.
In every other town so cents of every
dollar spent on Red Cross seals goes
for the immediate alienation of local
suffering.
The sale of the Red Cross Christ
mas stamps in Florida will be con-
Quoted by her Woman's Clubs. A
large number have been ordered by
the Ocala club, who hope that the sale
will far exceed all previous sales. Mrs.
E. Van Hood will have charge of the
stamp sale this year

A Hero OF The Austin Flood.

A special staff correspondent
Of the Cleveland Press Of October
4 sent his paper this incident
connected with the bursting of
the dam:
Maude, a powerful black mare,
deserves a hero medal for life
saving at the Austin deluge, and
Lewis Ryan, sixty-fye, her
driver, whose life she saved, is
going TO pin it on her, hgurative-
ly, by making the rest Of her
life ease and luxury.
When the dam broke, Ryan
was loading his two-wheel truck
TO which Maude was hitched. He
raced for the hills, but halted
when Maude whinnied for help
as clearly, Ryan says. as if she
had been gifted with speech. He
hurried back cut her harness
and together they made for the
hills.
Ryan stumbled and fell just as
the huge mass Of water and pulp
wood was bearing down on him.
Maude missed him, ran back to
his side, and Ryan mounted her.
She carried him safe above the
water-line.
II would have deserted my
old pal in a mighty sneaky way, !"
said Ryan, with tears in his eyes.
II guess she thought the old
man was getting old and sort of
forgetting all about her, so she
just up and whinnies to remind
me i was deserving her.
II can never forget the look
the horse gave me when heard
her whinny and turned. 1t was
the most reproachful look | ever
saw. not barring human be-
ings.
And If have TO work until |
croak, that horse is never going
to do any more work. She saved
my life, and a vacation for life
is going to be her reward"

Evening Reveries.
Many a child goes astray,
simply because home lacks sun
shine. Many wife esteems
death her best friend, because
he who swore before God to
love, honor and cherish" has
forgotten his vows.
Why not be polite at home?
Why not use freely the golden
coin of courtesy? How sweet
they sound, those little words,
Thank YOU" or you are very
kind" Doubly, yes, trebly
sweet, from the lips we love.
when heart-smiles makes the eye
sparkle with the clear light of
affection.
Don't harp on past troubles.
When we see a pale nervous
woman in the midst of her
friends perferring to entertain
them with a list of the racking
pains she has suffered to a saun-
ter in Gods free air and sun
shine, we cannot wonder that
the rose returns not to her
blanched cheek.
Boys and girls, what is it you
can never catch, though you
chase after it on the wings or
the wind? You can never catch
the word that has once left your
lips. Once spoken, it is out of
your reach; do your best you can
never recall it. Therefore, take
care what you say. Never speak
an unkind word, an impure word
or a profane word.
The generous and polite man
has a pleasant recognition and
cheerful word for all he meets.
He scatters sunbeams where
ever he goes. He paves the
path of others with smiles. He
makes society seem genial and
the world delightful to those
who else would find them cold.
selfish and forlorn. And what he
gives Il but a 1.-THE of what he
receives. BE sociable. thea.
wherever you go. and wrap your
lightest words in tones that
are sweet and a spirit that is
genial.
A man who has no enemies is |
seldom good for anything; he is |
made Of that kind of material |
which is so easily worked that
every one has a hand in it. A |
sterling character is one who
thinks for himself, and speaks
what he thinks; he is always
sure to have enemies. They are
as necessary to him as fresh air;
they keep him alive and active.
A celebrated character who was
surrounded by enemies used to
remark; They are sparks
which, if you do not blow, will
go out of themselves"
Thousands of young men who
have comfortable homes whose
parents are willing to supply
them with plenty of books, and
papers instead of availing them
selves to these advantages, spend
their long evenings either in
idle lounging around corners, or
in company with frivolous as
sociates male or female. Thus,
winter after winter passes AWAY.
