The Word Caters.

Episcopal CATERS cannot date from a
very remote antiquity. The very word
''gaiters" is almost newcomer to- the
language. JOhnson's Dictionary does
not recognize it's existence. 1t does not
occur before 176O. and even in 1902 a
military dictionary had to define it as
"a sort of spatterdashes." "Guetre,"
however, the French original, goes back
at least to the fifteenth century, and
The origin Of that is lost, though ety.
biologists compare all sorts Of words In
all sorts of languages, including an old
German word for baby's christening
cloth. The one certainty is that CATERS
has nothing to do with gait in spite Of
the punning line in the Rejected Ad
dresses"-''Lax in their CATERS, laxer
in their gait. London Spectator.

INFANTILE PARALYSIS AND
RUNNING NOSES

Infantile paralysis, an epidemic of
which has been raging in New York,
is another of the diseases of childhood
which authorities in contagious dis
eases state secure their entry through
nose and throat and are passed on TO
new victims by the mucous discharges
of patients suffering from them The
list is long one, including nearly
every contagious disease of childhood.
Measles, mumps, scarlet fever, whoop
ing cough, sore throat, tonsilitis, pneu
monia, grippe and common colds are
doubtless spread in this manner.
In the warnings concerning infantile
paralysis great emphasis is placed on
viewing every child who shows symp-
toms of a common cold," during an
epidemic, with suspicion. This is es-
pecially important as it is believed
that many infections with the germs
of infantile paralysis never to go topa-
ralysis and that a child, supposedly
with nothing but a common cold, may
infect another child who may die or
become hopelessly crippled from this
terrible disease.

greater than preventing infantile pa

who shows any signs of feverishness,
who acts listless, whose appetite is
poor, is a suspicious character and
should be excluded from contact with
others. He should be put to bed, for
his own sake and for the sake of
other children, until his temperature
is normal. And yet, one of the most
intelligent school teachers | know,
spurred with the desire of good at

provided in Senate amendment in

direct how manual training is to be
introduced in the army.

Theater-goers may next season see
"The Stepping Stone" the Triangle
lnce feature in which Frank keenan,
and Mary Boland are con-starred, pre-
scented on the speaking stage. Produc-
er Thomas H. 1nce, who owns the dra-
matte right has received offers from
an Eastern theatrical syndicate for
the work.
The play is based on an original
story from the pen of c. Gardner Sui
livan, of the Ince staff of photoplay-
wrights. It Is said to be unique in
that the plot. which concerns the
eternal triangle" is so skillfully
handled that the interest always is at
a high pitch. The story is based up.
on the effort of a millionaire stock
manipulation to win the love of the
beautiful wife OF a worthless young
clerk who aspires to power and wealth
by the "easy money" route.
The drama is said to be one which
would readily lend itself to dialogue
but so ably is 1t acted in the filr
production that nothing is lost. An
other unusual feature of the work Is
that there are but two exterior scenes
in the production and these are only
incidental to the story. fact which.
it is claimed, will make the ilent
drama the more easily adaptable to
the speaking stage.

feature two reel Triangle Keystone
