DICTIONARY MAKERS AT FAULT
Some Notable 5iunders, With EIe.
phantIne Efforts at VIZ, Have
Been Put on Record.

DR.. Johnson perpetrated many Jokes
in his dictionary, but among his most
famous blunders was his definition Of
"pastern" as "the knee Of a horse"
The dictionary makers often took
occasion to make their definitions hit
their enemies. Wesley defined Meth
odist" as ''one that liveth according to
the method laid down In the Bible"
DR.. Johnson defined oats as "a grain
which in England is generally given
to horses, but in Scotland supports
the people," He defined "pensioner"
as "a slave Of state, hired by a sti:
pend to obey his MASTER" which def
milton was made much of by the doc
tors enemies when he himself was
awarded q pension.
Bailey's dictionary defined the Lo-
riot or Golden OrioIe as "a bird that,
being looked upon by one who has the
yellow jaundics, cures the person and
dies himself" Fenning, who was the
next dictionary maker, was afraid of
this, and merely said "Loriot, kind
Of bird" But one Of the best bits Of
transformation was given in the die
tionary Of Edward Philips, who in
one place declared that "a gallon is
a measure containing two quarts" and
In another place declared "a quaver
is measure of time in music, being
the half of crochet, as a crochet is
the half of a quaver," which leaves
the subject as clear as mud.

Root out of it, Says T. r.

Oyster Bay, N. Y. May 21.-Colonel
Roosevelt was advised of the returns
IN the Ohio primary contest up to
about ii O'Clock tonight, showing at
that hour lead in his favor, but he
declined to comment on the returns
until the result was definitely known.
In regard TO the selection of tenn
Doraly presiding officer of the Repub-
lean National Convention for which
position Root was named, Roosevelt
issued the following statement:
IF the Progressives as now seems
proba be, have a majority at the
Chicago convention. 1 assume that
they will wish every man who speaks
at the convention to be in thorough
s. mpathy with their principles and
with the cause for which they stand.
'This was done in the convention
of 1884, of which | was memberwhen
the National Committee named as
temporary chairman Powell Clayton,
and we of the convention substituted
for him Mr.. Lynch"

SALVAGE SHOT FROM THE SEA
Seamen on English Coast Earn Money
by Selling Old Projectiles
to tho Admiralty.

Shot picking is the "art" Of retriev-
ing shot and shell from the bottom Of
the sea. In order to practice this
profession nowadays a man must be
in possession Of boat, plenty Of cour-
age and license.
Target practice Is carried on almost
every day at Portsmouth, England,
and the admiralty are willing to pay
good price for shells which are re-
covered from sand banks and shallow
water.
Shot pickers go out to sea in boats,
watch the firing intently while it is in
progress, and then, as soon as the last
shot has settled in the water, dis
perse in various directions in order
to discover the shells.
These are located by means Of a
long line weighted with lead, which
has small buoy fixed at one end.
This end is thrown overheard, and the
boat is rowed slowly in a semicircle.
The weighted line drags over the
sand beneath the water and catches
against any shell that is projecting
above the sand. A thin, firm pole is
then lowered, so that 1t makes a clean
line from the shot to the side Of the
boat, and. while this is held In place
by one man. a pick is thrust down by
another to draw the projecting shot
from the sand beneath the water.

SEEK EVER TO KEEP FRIEND
Worth Careful Nurturing, Since Moth
Ing on Earth Can Be More
Beautiful.

In an article in the Woman's Home
Companion on the compensations that
come to those who live away from
great centers of population there ap-
peared the following sound advice:
1--WE are idly inclined to think that a
real friendship, once begun, ought to
survive of its own vitality; but, alas.
all beauty in this world, from a rose
slip to human soul, needs nurture
Nietzsche speaks very scornfully Of
those who fancy they dare show them
selves as they are to their friends For
your friends he advised, wear every
adornment.' It is well worth while to
save the highest cheer, the brightest
thoughts. the gentlest attentions, for
the friends. One should always keep
some impersonal topics Of converse
ton ready, so that your thoughts to-
gether should not huddle down to the
sordid atmosphere of narrow spaces.
Be not only the sunshine to your
friend, but be broad outlook and a
wide view! Love must have space and
air to thrive in.
Human life offers us nothing else
so beautiful as real friendship; not
love. not prosperity, not fame, are SO
fair, so precious. So foster it! Let no
distrust, no absence, no difference of
environment, dim its luster. Let death
itself be powerless to rob you of its
sweetness! Never break It; never lose
It; 1t is the sweetest touch Of mortal
life"

Without tho Stork.

There are no storks in the dense
forests Of Dutch Guiana, where live
simple, harmless Indians. The poor
Indian mother goes out Of her home.
a simple shelter from rain raised on a
few sticks, and broods in the forest.
She soon comes back, not alone as
she went out, but with little baby
boy or girl. sometimes twins. Old
Mr.. Indian smiles quietly when he
first sees the little one and from some
superstition he believes he must not
work and kill game for several weeks.
So he lies in his hammock and some
times holds the little one as the other
Indians come up and tell him how
happy he ought to be as the father Of
the fine baby. In two or three days
the little one is swung in a hammock
and carried at its mothers breast
while she works the casava fields.
Baby seldom or never cries and Is not
one tenth as much trouble as an
American baby.

Interest In Collections.

It is quite the fad among smart
folk to flock to sales Of rare books.
furniture or pictures, even when they:
have no intention Of buying. For each
OF these collections is the result OF q
lifetime OF study, and the opportunity
to see them as whole cannot recur
again, while individually the pieces,
passing into private hands, may be
lost to the public for years. For this
reason young girls are sent with their
governesses to see the treasures that
will soon be scattered far and wide,
and even whole classes from fashion
able schools are taken for morning
views. Such visits, naturally, do more
for the artistic education Of these
fortunate young folk than weeks OF
lecturing and photographs.
