Booze" as a word connected with
taking strong waters, dates back two
centuries, and in the spelling "bouze
may be found at even as remote date
as 1900. Fresh" in its Specification
of forward, comes from 1903. Some
pumpkins" popular slang in bucolic
circles, is of ancient lineage. Cab"
has been slang for a century. Stag.
on the fence between slang and Eng,
fish, has survived generations. In the
Knickerbocker Magazine Of 1856 we
find an author telling Of "a party Of
old bricks who are keeping
up a small stag party at the end Of
the room" "Squelch" in the seven
teenth century was in good use. OF
two words in vogue to express drunk
enness half a century ago tight is
much alive, while whitfield has been
dropped. There are no fixed laws to
gauge the life Of slang or to predict its
entrance into the language. Will high
brow" for example, find its way into
the mouths of grandchildren yet I'M
born, or will it take its place in the
ranks of absolute curiosities?-Colliers
Weekly.

Ernine Is the Royal Fur.

The fame Of the ermine as a crea.
ture "patronized by royalty" dates
back to the reign Of King Edward Ill,
who made it a punishable offense for
any person except those of royal birth
to wear the fur of this handsome lit
tie animal This tyrannous restriction
has been long removed, but ermine, OF
course, is still the royal fur and proba
bly, owes its long continued populari'
ty as an article Of personal adorn
ment more to that fact than anything
else. e has, however, the great draw
back Of losing its pristine whiteness
after a few years, while, owing to the
variation in the quality Of the fur
found on different animals Of the tribe
ermine is far harder to match than
many other skins employed in the
making Of human appareL-London
Globe.

Diamond CIeavinu.

The at of the lapidary is one Of the
most Delicate emplOyments Of mechan-
zeal force known. The practical dia-
ruond cutter learns many facts about
precirls stones which are sealed books
ever TO mincralUGists. For instance.
Il Is the lapidaries who have found
out that Diamonds coming from the
different districts vary remarkably in
their degrees Of hardness. 1t appears
that the hardest diamonds come from
New South Wales. An unfamiliar fact
Is that diamonds are made to assume
approximately the required shape 10y
Sitting and cleaving and by "bruting.
which is the rubbing of one diamond
against another, before they are sub
United to the polishing wheel In
cleaving the diamond is cemented on
the end Of n wooden stick and steel
blade is driven with smart blow in
the direction of the natural plane Of
cleavage Diamonds that have been
cut by the lapidary's wheel lack some
of the brilliance possessed by those
that have simply been cleaved.-New
York Press.

Wreck of the White Ship.

The most famous of all royal ship
wrecks is probably that of the White
Ship, which gave Rossetti the subject
of one of his finest ballads. Henry |.
had crossed to France to secure the al
legiance of the Norman barons and was
returning in triumph. Prince William,
the kings favorite son. did not sail
aboard his fathers vessel, but followed
in the White Ship, commanded By Fitz,
Stephen, the royal hereditary pilot
Somewhere in midchannel the White
Ship separated from the fleet and went
down with all ON board, and Henry
never smiled again"
That historically stihed smile also
gave rise to the ribald verse-it came,
one thinks, from some Twainish Amer.
lean:
Many a wicked smile he smole.
And many a wink he wunk,
But never, never smole again
After the White Ship sunk.

Good WEIGHT.

One trick of the trade was taught to
the young butcher by the marketman
who gave him his first employment.
The old dealer pointed to trays Of beef,
lamb and pork trimmings beneath the
counter.
"When customers ask to have all the
waste that has been cut from their
own meat wrapped up with their order
be sure to put in a few Of these trim
mings besides" he said. Most always
they want the scraps sent home so
they can weigh the whole business and
find out whether they are getting full
weight or not. Enough extra pieces
to tip the scales half an ounce beyond
the supposed weight won't hurt any
body and will give us a good name"
Shortly after that the new clerk
heard one frugal housewife say to an
other: ooh, why don't you trade at
Blanks? He gives such good meas
ure, often almost an ounce more than
you pay for"
The clerk smiled.-Washington Star.

Why Men Went West.

A hundred years ago the Rev. limo
thy Dwight commented complacently
on the benefit to Connecticut from the
draining away to the frontier-then
western New York-of the restless
spirits who chafed under the rule of
the old families and the Congregation
al clergy, writes Professor Edward
Alsworth Ross in tie Century. 1t new
er occurred to him that these insur-
gent spirits were carrying with them
to the wilderness a precious energy
and initiative. The unprosperous, the
shiftless and the migratory sought the
frontier, to be sure, but the enterpris-
ing, too, were attracted by it. The
timorous and cautious stayed and &C
cepted the cramping conditions Of an
old society, but those who dared take
chances, to .''place a bet on them
selves" were apt to catch the western
fever.

Precedent NobIy Iqnored.

Had no important step been taken by
the leaders of the Revolution for which
q precedent could not be discovered
no government established Of which
an exact model did not present itself
the people Of the United States might
at this. moment have been numbered
among the melancholy victims Of mis-
guided councils; must at best have
been laboring under the weight Of some
of those forms which have crushed
the liberties of the rest Of mankind
Happily for America-happily we trust
for the whole human race-they pur-
sued a new and more noble course

The judges Advice.

The prisoner being without an adyo-
cate and the charge being one Of muir
der, the judge asked Junior barrister
to act as his counsel. The barrister did
his best and at lunchtime privately
asked the Judge whether he should
make long speech for the defense or
q short one.
"As long as you can make it," said
his lordship systematically, "for that's
the only chance the prisoner has Of
frightening his life."-London Opin-
ion.

The Jerusalem Chamber.

One of the rooms in Westminster alb

Jerusalem chamber, which was built
more than 500 years ago and was
probably at one time the abbot's with

that Henry w. died, in curious fulfill

in Jerusalem:
