Abused Superiatives.

1t is hard to make people understand
that the adjective almost invariably
Weakens the noun and that the word

en- statement. but qualities it. But
the use of the superlative is even more
abused. We talk Of the 'unimpeach-
able" honesty of somebody or other.
knowing perfectly well that anybody's
honesty may he impeached. What
seems to be required is REIMBURSEMENT
of our habits of thought and better
teaching of the value Of words and
even Of the usefulness Of grammar. A
superlative necessarily involves an Ak
ION. 1t commits you. like saying that
the sum of the angles Of any triangle
is equal to two right angles. Your d.
lemma arises when you try to prove it.
"Impregnability" and "invulnerability"
and all other superlatives in general
use are posing as axioms when they
are mostly fallacies.-Wall Street Jour-
nal.

there, seeking to pass the time, he

he might, the countryman won every

her shrewd eyes determined him to be

of a gentleman, the carriage Of man

Of his servant he seemed to forget the

then departed to his own quarters

the open space Of the double cabin.
The soft, velvet darkness OF night In
the forest now came on apace--a night
Of silence. There was not even the call
of q tree toad. The voice Of the whip

the year. If there we're human beings
awake, alert, at that time, they made
no sound. Meriwether Lewis was
alone-alone in the wilderness again.
Its sllences, its mysteries, drew about
him.
But now he stood, not enjoying in his
usual fashion the familiar feeling of

repose 1t customarily brought to him.
He stood looking intently as II he ex.

saw some one-as If he sew a face.
What face was It?
At last he made his way across the
room to the heavy saddle case which
had been placed there. He flung the
lid open and felt among the contents.
It seemed to him there was not SO
much within the case as there should
have been. He missed certain papers
and resolved to ask Peria about them.
