SiMPLIFIED SPELLING.
The One Thing Needed to Make Eng
iish the World LANGUAGE.

The One Thing Needed to Make Eng
iish the World Language.
Having been for years a teacher of
English to foreigners and to high
school pupils as well as a student of
modern languages, the subject Of an
International language interests me
greatly.
Certainly of the four important mod
ern tongues English is the easiest and
simplest in grammer, having no awful
genders such as German and no dread
ful verbs such as French and Italian.
1t has no battling depths and subtleties
as the last two mentioned nor any
impossible pronunciation as the first
Yet, In spite of its simplicity, 1t is a
very hard language for foreigners to
master. This IL due, l feel. solely to
its Anticipated method Tor lack Of meth
od) Of spelling. The difficulties arising
from the difference between the spell
ing of English words and their pro-
nunciation are almost insurmountable,
fatal to It's universal diffusion. How
many natively English speaking people
do we know, educated, nay, intellec-
tual, who simply cannot spell, who
have given up trying?
All over the continent one hears re-
iterated with boring monotony: 81 like
to read the English, but not to speak
1t. 1t is too difficult to pronounce. !
can never tell how a new word should
be said" In French and German GER
tain letter combinations invariably rep
resent certain sounds, while Italian Is
absolutely phonetic. In Italian schools
there is no such thing as spelling
lesson. Think what saving of time,
temper and grey Tor is it gray matter
this Is to the growing child!
1t is all very well to insist upon the
| classic origin Of our photography, but
compare it for one moment with the
near and aristocratic parent Of the Ital-
ian. Yet Italian does not hesitate to
discard all artificiality.
feel sure that only one thing will
make English, which stands today as
the easiest and most concise Of Ian
guages-only one thing will make it the
universal language, and that is sim
plified spelling.-J H. Harris in New
York Times.

BRAVERY OF A TOREADOR.
Remarkable Display Of Nerve by Z
Spanish Bull FIGHTER.


The famous Spanish tOreador Re-
verte figured in one of the most thrill
ing incidents ever witnessed in the
bull fighting arena.
1t was at Bayonne. After disposing
Of two bulls Reverte had twice plunged
his sword into third of great strength
and ferocity, and as the beast contin-
ued careering wildly the spectators be-
gan to hiss Reverte for bungling.
Wounded to the very quick Of his
pride, the Spaniard shouted, THE bull
Is SLANT! and, throwing aside his
sword, sank on one knee with folded
arms in the middle of the ring.
He was right. but he had not al
lowed for the margin of accident. The
wounded beast charged full upon him,
but the matador splendid to the last,
knelt motionless as a statue, while the
spectators held their breath in horri-
fed suspense.
Reaching his victim. the bull literal
ly bounded at him, and as he sprang
he sank in death, with his last effort

kneeling man and laid bare the bone

Still Reverte never. flinched, but re-
manned kneeling, exultant in victory,
but calmly contemptuous Of applause,
till he was carried away to heal him
of his grievous wound.

AN EYE TO THE MACHINERY

The needless depreciation of farm
machinery runs high every year, and
the western farmer is not to be criti-
cised any more than his fellow farmer
in eastern states, for this same fact
holds true to a greater or less extent
in every farm community However,
with little extra time on the part of
the owner when putting away machin-
cry in the fall, large proportion of
this annual loss can be avoided. 1t is
not necessary to travel many miles TO
count half dozen plows standing out
in the field, perhapss four or five
binders, three or four harrows, and
that many moving machines. These
same machines cost considerable NOR
ey in these war times and it is not
very good conservation to leave them
out. The depreciation amounts to
fully ten per cent annually and runs
into dollars quite rapidly.
The annual loss can be eliminated to
a great degree by building machine
shed, when a man can spare the money
ITO patronize the lumber trust, or by
using some paint to go over all the
wood work before putting away in the
fall. Unless a man can build sub
stantial shed, one that turns rain and
snow and is closed up tightly to keep
stock out, he might just as well store
his machinery outside. On the aver
age farm of l60 acres building 20x
80 feet can be made to house all the
machinery used on the place and a
number of other farm implements he
sides. The cost of such a building
would soon be saved by additional
years of service of the implements and
