Mistakes In Use Of Words.

If use can make authority in the EN-
ployment of words it is high time that
certain etymologically MISUSE phrases
Of our English tongue should be*adopt-
ed into the family of orthodoxy. The
word necessity" is habitually used as
the equivalent of necessary instead
of being its direct opposite. A man
says: Il do not care for the luxuries of
life if l have the necessities" when
probably he has the necessities in
clamorOus abundance. Quite as com-
mon a blunder is the confusion be-
tween the words expect and 'ssus-
pect." A man says: There is a knock
at the door. expect that is the tax
collector" He should say, II have been
expecting the tax collector and suspect
that is he."-Boston Transcript

The first year of the European
war cost England and Russia
each five billions of dollars. Just
what Germany and Austria have
spent has not been made public.
They have financed their end of
it without outside aid, but it is
evident from the peace signs on
the horizon that the money ques-
ton will soon play an important
part in bringing about peace.
England and France have been
the bankers of the allies. Their
credit is being bolstered on this
side by large shipments of gold
and securities.

indiana of Ecuador,

Perhaps nowhere on the globe do hui
man beings so :Zuch resemble passive
beasts of burden as in Ecuador. In
fact, the Indians used to be designated
in documents as smaller beasts of

animals. Loaded, they Chamber up the
steep streets as stolid Us little gray
burros. One sees many an urchin OF
seven years bearing on his back a load
of bricks as heavy as he is. One wo-
man, bent under a burden, carries q

LIGHTNING RODS.
Why They End In a Sharp Point and
Not In a Knob.

Why They End In a Sharp Point and
Not In a Knob.
The reason a lightning rod has a
sharp point is because a fine point Of
fers no resistance to the discharge OF
electricity and in order that a cloud
may be emptied Of 1t ~noiselessly and
harmlessly.
The degree of resistance is in proper
ton to the surface Of the object. 1t
the rod were surmounted by a knob,
for instance, the discharge would be
violent. But many a lightning rod has
received an electrical discharge when
the people in the building below were
calmly unconscious of the fact. Nom
corrosive metal is used for the point Of
the rod, as c%orrosion makes resistance.
The difference between a point and a
ball is shown in discharging a battery.
The full charge from a largeehattery
would be received quietly on a metal
point, while a moderate charge from a
small one would explode violently on a
ball.
1t is said that a full charge may be
passed harmlessly through a persons
body if received on the point of a nee
die, whereas the same charge received
ON a discharger with a ball or knob on
the end would mean instant death

Wonder Of Stonehenae.

Everyone has heard of Stonehenge,
a prehistoric monument in England
which Is almost as much Of a puzzle
as the sphinx in Egypt or the mounds
erected by the mound builders in Amer
lea. Stonehenge is about ten miles
north OF Salisbury. The name comes
from two Saxon words meaning 'hang-
ing stones
The earlier Celtic name was Cor
Gawr, or giants temple. There are in
many localities in the northwest of
Europe prehistoric remains In the form
Of huge stone monuments or "tumuli'
or "barrows"-that is, bowl shaped
mounds or hills Of earth. In the neigh
bOrhood Of ~Stonehenge there are hun
dreds Of these mounds. Coins, ETC.,
found in them seem to date them back
about three centuries before Christ.
1t must have taken an immense
amount of work to make them, and
there must have been some profound
and serious purpose behind them

Annie Laura Haygood

The announcement of the sud-
den death of little Miss Annie
Laura Haygood. daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. j. L. Haygood, residing
in the western part of the city,
was a severe shock to their
many friends in Corinth.
The child was seemingly in the
very best of health, and though
she had suffered on Thursday
night with a pain in her shoulder,
she was we'll and hearty up until
noon yesterday, when she was
seized with an attack of violent
illness. Two physicians were
summoned, and every attention
possible was administered, but
to no avail, and she passed away
about 2:30 o'clock.
She was about II years old,
and was very bright. She was an
affectionate child, and was loved
by all who knew her. She came
to Corinth with her parants last
year from Tupelo, and had won
for herself many stanch admir-
ers who are panied to learn of
her demise.
She is survived by her parents
and several brothers and sisters.
The funeral services took place
this afternoon at their residence
conducted by Rev. R. S. Gavin,
and the body laid to rest in the
City Cemetery.
The relatives have the sincere
sympathy Of their many friends
in their bereavement. -Satur-
day's( Sept. ~ Daily C%orinthian.
The friends in Tupelo of Mr..
and Mrs. Haygood regret to hear
of the great sorrow that has
come to them and deeply SYM
pathize with them in their be-
reavement.

Strassburg, the capital Of Alsace.
Lorraine, is remarkable for the great
clock of its cathedral.
This clock, which is twenty feet In
height, was made by Jean Baptiste
Schwflgue In 1912. Besides various
astronomical devices indicating true
solar time, it has a great planetarum
In which the revolutions of the planets
are represented, so that the relative
positions Of each at any time can be
seen at a glance.
Then on a platform above are NOV
able figures representing the four ages
Of man. At the first quarter of an hour
a child strikes the bell with a rattle: q
youth in the garb Of a hunter strikes It
with an arrow at the half hour; at the
third quarter a warrior strikes it with
his sword, and at the fourth quarter
an old man strikes it with his crutch.
Then a figure Of Death appears and
strikes the full hour with a 1eshless
bone.
On the highest platform is a natural
sized figure of Christ, and when Death
strikes the hour at noon the twelve
apostles pass before the feet Of their
master, bowling as they do SO. AS Pc

GERMANY's FoReEARANcE

Germany's forbearance in her
submarine warfare was of short
duration if we are not assured
that the Hesperian was not sub
marined against the order of the
Kaiser. The world, and especially
the United States, should be duly
grateful for the assurance from
the Imperial Government that
neutrals will no longer be muir
dered at sea. This is a conces-
sion that we least expected and
we hope that it was given in
good faith, but recent events
force US to place Germany on
probation. Just what brought
about these good intentions have
not fully appeared on the surface
but it is evident that the waring
elements are growing tired of
the game and would gladly well
come a peace proposition. Mr..
Wilson occupies the position best
suited to make peace proposals
and his fine diplomacy guar
antees that he will be listened to
in every consideration by all
parties to the unfortunate con-
fict.

Although the state house at
Jackson was erected less than Is
years ago at a cost of 81, 600, 600,
the business of the state has
outgrown the building. When
the three new supreme court
judges, provided for by con-
stitutional amendment, are Sc
lected, the secretary of state,
the custodian of the capital, will
be unable to provide rooms for
them. The legislature to meet
in January will no doubt be called
on to make an appropriation to
supply the necessary offices.

TO AID COTTON MOVEMENT

The federal reserve banking
law will be given a test to prove
or disprove its effectiveness in
relieving the cotton situation
during the present season. Here
tofore southern banks and mer-
chants have been forced to 60 to
Wall street for money to handle
the crop, but Mr.. McAdoo, the
secretary of the treasury, has
announced that he will soon
place SIS, 600, 900 with the reserve
banks in Richmond, Atlanta and
Dallas, to be used to aid in NOV
ing the crop, there being the
stipulation that member banks
availing themselves of this fund
must not charge over six per
cent to borrowers.
The new banking law did not
get in operation in time to handle
the past seasons crop and the
cotton producer was confronted
with the difficulties arising out
of the war and the lack OF funds
to properly finance the crop.
These difficulties resulted in
heavy losses to the farmers and
holders of cotton, which can be
averted this season if the holders
of cotton can be induced not to
market it all within the fall
months. Nine cents should be
received for the crop. There is
going to be a very short crop
and the man who holds the long
est will get the longest price.
Should the war end by spring
the crop then on hand will bring
Is cents per pound.
