Moneker.

Moneker, or moniker slang, and
probably thieves Latin" for "a name"
has for some time puzzled those who
try to follow such graceless fag-ends
OF language back to their originals.
One who has evidently devoted much
study to the subject says that 'in &C
cordance with the law OF back-slanE
moneker IL but cognomen disguised.
The objection does not lie that a pure
ly Latin noun is above the reach Of
the thief In his kennel, for the Alsatia
Of tho medieval thief was the kitchen
of the monastery, whence Latin came
out with the garbage. With the ire
mendous vitality of word roots the
master of back-slang inverted the
order Of root and prefix and cognomen
was rearranged into nomencog The
next inversion took hold Of the first
syllable of the root and inverted It;
the result Is mon-en-cog. From this
to moneker is the easy progress Of
word degradation in the pronouncia-
ton OF those unworthy to speak. It
Is for this reason that, II any prefer
ence 10 preferable in speech so low,
moneker is the preferred spelling"
There does not appear to be finality
about this derivation, however. Can
any reader help us out?

SELECT RIGHT DIET
Food Believed to Have Effect on
Character.
Men Who Have Given Thought to the
Subject Are Of Opinion That
Proper Kind Of Eating 10 Of
Immense Importance.

Nowadays eating has become YER
table science, and there are those
who assert that a man can alter his
very character If he will only indulge
In the right kind of diet. The other
day The private secretary OF the Ma
harajah of Jhalawar gave a lecture on
food in London, in the course OF which
he stated that the eating OF onions Is
conducive to darkness Of spirit" He
also averred that the caste system in
India IL largely regulated BY diet.
Thus, those of the highest caste only
eat vegetarian meals in order to keep
their souls pure. Members Of an
other caste are allowed to eat meat 80
that they may become fitted to be war
riors; while the lowest caste Of all
eat stale. nat foods" which suit their
unspiritual natures.
Two noted German professors gave
1t as their opinion not long ago that II
people would eat plenty Of chalk they
would have not only more energy and
happiness, but considerably increased
brain power.
A doctor in Philadelphia recently
stated that no one who eats q pound
Of macaroni daily will ever become q
drunkard, but he also stipulated that
the would-be teetotaler should live en-
tirsly on a vegetable diet and never
touch meat In any circumstances.
In direct contradiction to the "vege-
tarianism for soulfulness" theory Is
that Of a New York woman. She be-
lieves that there is nothing like fine
chops and glasses of beer to inspire
poets and writer's, and she opened q
restaurant for the express purpose Of
providing those who would WOO the
muse with the proper kind of diet.
She has no patience with people who
would become soulful" on prunes and
lentils. and her linn for bohemians."
~ her establishment Is called, has
certainly been well patronized by bud
ding Tennysons and future Merediths.
The belief is gaining ground in
many quarters that If you wish to
stave of old age and to have the feel
Ing Of perennial youth and gaiety, no
matter what your actual years may be,
you cannot do better than eat plenty
of sugar. One of the pioneers of this
theory II Professor Metchnikoff, who
has made exhaustive experiments to
prove his statements.
There are some who even assert
that not only does the frequent eating
OF sugar keep one from growing old,
but that II man or woman will begin
the sugar treatment, even after senil-
ity has set in. the effect will be SO
great as to amount to a complete
change In his or her character.
