NEW WORDS HIS SPECIALITY
Eastern Newspaper Man Has an oc-
eupation That ls Unique az Well
as Profitable.

There are In the world many un-
usual and unique occupations, but per-
haps the strangest Of all which pays
a good income Is that of New York
newspaper man, who earns, In addi-
ton to his regular salary from the pa
per. rather regular amounts from
the publishers Of dictionaries, ency-
clopedias and other such volumes. His
occupation Is the inventing Of new
words.
The casual observer would be In
clined to remark that the English Ian
guage already possesses enough words
for all uses, without the invention Of
any new ones; and probably his state
ment would be a fact. Nevertheless
1t Is true that this man Is paid SUBJ
stantial sums for inventing new words
to fit special phases, situations, occu-
patlOns and occurrences, and that the
publishers of dictionaries will incor-
pOrate into them any new word based
on substantial derivatives, for the ex-
istence Of which plausible reason can
be made.
The progress Of modern business
an especially the discoveries that
ha~e been made In the fields of cleo
triclty and medicine In the last decade
have been responsible for the incor-
poration into the language Of many
new words.

HOUSE THAT WAS DIFFERENT
Actress Who "Rose From Ranks"
Earned the Bungalow She Built
for Her Mother.

The carpenters and masons were at
work, and under their quick, skillful
hands lumber and stone became a
house. Passersby saw IN the structure
only dwelling place, an attractive
little bungalow, to be sure, but no DIFF
ferent from thousands Of other struc-
lures Of its kind. Then one day an
old woman, her fine cloak contrasting
strangely with her tired face and her
toll-worn hands, came to note the prog.
re~s Of the artisans.
With her was young woman, and
everyone who saw her said that her
face was 30 familiar. Who was she
Adn't her picture often appeared In
OlAspapers and magazines? Finally
someone remembered and told some
one else about 1t. The girl was one
of a number Of children. Her parents
were poor. She went to work for q
yittance while she was still child
1t was evident that she had dramatic
ability, and one day she was given
chance to show what she could do.
She made her dreams come true. She
rose In her profession. Her ability
was recognized and rewarded. And
then the first thing she did was to
build for her mother comfortable
home. She admitted that she was in
ordinately proud of the house, and
everyone declared that she had every
right to be. And they all looked at the
house with new understanding, realiz-
ing that It was more than an "attrac-
tive bungalow, but no different from
others Of its Observation-Disclosures Jour-
nal.
