Tin Can or Canteen7

Popular etymology is always more
interesting than the learned expluna-
tions Of philologists. For instance,
take the barrack-room derivation of
the word "canteen." 1t is no use try
ing to convince Tommy Atkins that II
comes from the Italian "cantina," a
small cellar. He has his own deriva-
ton, which he finds quite satisfactory.
"Canteen' is simply ''tin can" said
backwards. To justify this theory he
simply invites one to look around. Ger
talnly tin enters largely into the uten-
slls and furnishing Of the average can
teen. The drinking vessels are tin, the
counter is tin, and in many cases the
tables also are covered with block tin.
No wonder Tommy holds that the word
has some connection with the metal
that is SO much In evidence.

This is what one college president
says in an address: "With the null
tiplicity of subjects it is only to be
expected that some anxiety may be
felt as to the results from present-day
methods Of teaching. / must confess
there IS some need for this stgges-
tion Of anxiety. Perhaps the pendulum
has swung too far, or we may have
discovered the correct scientific meth
cd of dealing with the subjects taught
in the elementary school. | feel con
vinccd that training is not receiving its
fair share of attention. There was
much wastagc Of time in the past, but
the old-fashioncd grinding was not
without its good points, one of which
was the cultivation of the faculty of
sticking to task until 1t was known

Doas' Status Under the Law.

1.-THE very fact that they (dogs) are
without the protection of the criminal
laws shows that property in dogs is Of
an imperfect or qualified nature and
that they stand, as it were, between
animals ferae naturae, in which, until
killed or subducd, there is no property,
and domestic animals, in which the
right of property is perfect and com
piete. They are not considered as
being upon the same plane with horses,
cattle, sheep and other d0mesticatcd

New Flying Target.

To take the place of clay pigeons,
glass balls and similar flying targets
used by sportsmen In gun practice, Il
small, propeller shaped device has been
brought out in France. says the POpu-
lar Mechanics Magazine. 1t is made
of steel and is shot into the mir by
the strong spring of an instrument
which revolves it rapidly rs it is re-
leased. The object can be made TO
ascend to Il considerable height, and
then planes for some distance before
commencing to fall. As soon MS it is
struck by shot, however, its rotary
motion stops and it falls to the ground.
Aside from the matter OF cost, I'M I'D
vantage Of the device is that it may
be carried in the pocket.

Indian Tribes Of Mexico.

The Yaquis take their name from the
Rio Yaqui (Chief rlver), which flows
for 500 miles through the mountain
gorgcs of Sonora and finally empties
into the Gulf of California. Along this
river the Indians make their homes Of
reed and adobe, with roofs of grass
and mud. The warriors are we'll
proportioned race, but they are prone
to overlndulgence in the native drink,
mescal. Family ties are more or less
negative among the men, the custom
Of exchanging wives being popular
practice Of not distant past. They
are closely related to the Mayos, who
from time to time have been forced
into an unwilling alliance with their
more bellicose kinsmen.
