Rock Ana Urooh.

The rock appears to have become the bird whose name stands for swlndlera in distinctly unfair way, At first "rook" meant q dupe, then the verb "to rock" came to mean to cheat, and out Of this was evolved 'rook," n cheater-a complete topay turvy proc ess, It is curious that the same thing has not happened to gull" Here also the verb came from the substantive meaning dupe, and as the gull strikes one as rather knowing bird one might have expected the same evolu- ton as in the ease of the rock. It should be observed. however. that ''gull." dupe. did not refer specially Co tho sea gull, the word having for merly meant Il young bird of any kind. In Elizabethnn English it signitied a callow youngster who wished to be thought smart. - London Chronicle.
