The Word "Score."

Score" for twenty came into the
language nearly at the same time. but
was not exclusively French. 1t comes
from the Anglo Saxon scor, the root or
shear, shire. scar, and means to cui.
Our ancestors. to avoid the difficulty
of large numbers. used to keep &C
counts by cutting notches in stick.
called tally. and after twenty such
notches they cut or the tally, which
thus became a score" These were
used in England for keeping the ex-
chequer accounts. even to the begin
ming of the nineteenth century
cricket score was once spoken of as so
many notches. and the rind Of pork Is
scored. The word is first used In q
poem called THE Bestiary' and In

Children Cry
FOR FLETCHER'S
Q AS TO RIA
Liability Of Sellers Of
UnWholesome Food.

The Supreme Court of Louis
lana recently rendered a decision
in the case of Doyle VS.. Fuerst
& Kaemer CSC So. 9O6) which is
of interest to everyone who even
occasionally dimes in a public res
taurant. The plaintiff alleged
he was poisoned from having
eaten cakes and chocolate with
whipped cream at the defend
ants confectionery where re-
freshments were served to the
public. The court holds that a
seller of food, such as chocolate
and cakes sold at a public eating
place, is presumed to know any
unWholesome condition of the
food, and is liable for damages
to a purchaser through being
made i'll on account of unwhole-
someness. 1t is common knowl-
edge, to which the keeper of a
public eating place must be held,
that food in which the process
of decomposition has begun is IL
able to make the person who eats
it i'll. The measure of damages
sustained by a purchaser of food,
who is made i'll through its un-
wholesomeness, is not merely re-
imbursed of the price, but all
damages that were foreseen or
could have easily been foreseen
as likely to have resulted. The
court thinks that $1OO was not
an excessive award to a purchas-
er of food for illness resulting
from ptomaine poisoning caused
by EMBELLISHMENTS of food,
where he suffered intense pain,
believed for two hours that he
was in danger of death and suf-
fered an attack of jaundice in
consequence. Austin States
