Without being a pedant one may
note many inaccuracies In the use Of
words in his own speech and in that
of others. Perhaps excuse" for ''par-
don" is the most common OF these, not
to consider mere malapropisms or
murders of the kings English. "Anx-
ious" used where eager" Is meant is
another frequent error. and more Of
ten secure" is spoken incorrectly than
correctly. Ordinarily when procure
or get is intended secure Is said.
These instances do not come within
even the category of distorted syn
onyms. They are simply words mis-
applied. OF practically Synonymous
terms which have different shades of
meaning the misuses of ordinary con-
versation and of writing are innu-
merable. But to find fault with most
OF these latter wants OF precision
would be priggish. 1t is a profitable
