ENGLISH ''AS SHE IS
SPOKE" DOWN IN
AUSTRALIA

The United States is not the only
country that takes liberties with the
mother tongue. Australia speaks a
language Of. trade that would not be
understood elsewhere. For instance,
"dry goods" is seldom heard, the Aus
tralian term being soft goods" This
generally applies only to piece goods,
with some inclusion of ready-to-wear
articles. The house or shop that car
RES articles for mems wear is known
as "mercery'' and never as a haber-
dasher,s. "Haberlashery" means what
in America Is covered by notions"
The shop that handles women's
wear is known as 'drapers.' and
the organization composed of members
Of the trade is called the Master ORA
rers' Association. The mantle" de
Dartment is the One that handles wOm-
ems coats and suits. The manager
Of the store or shop or shop Is known
as director, and an Assistant Is a
salesman.
"Warehousenan" does not mean a
man who stores goods for others, but
n wholesale dealer in soft goods" and
the like. The business of what IL
known in America as that Of ware
houseman is conducted in Australia by
"bulk stores"

Saving Victims Of Battle
for Useful " ork in Peace

his violin came upon him stronger
than ever before. After patient prac-
>tice he Is said to play as well as a man
with the hands that nature gave
him.
The legless man finds it possible by
means Of artificial limbs to operate
foot power machinery, and thereby
falls into a special kind of work that
should become the particular province
of legless men when the war Is over.
The theory has become generally
credited in scientific circles that the
cause of mankind being right handed
is to be found in the early custom OF
carrying n shield on the left arm. to
protect the heart. And through all the
ages that man fought with spear and
javelin, he trained his right hand to
feats Of skill. So the race becama
right handed. The question Is now
asked II the teaching of men to use
their remaining left hand instead Of
the missing right will have n tendency
to increase the number OF left handed
men and women in the years to come.
On the principle of like father like
son, it is possible that future genera
tons will have a much larger proper
ton of left-handed persons.
SO skilfnlly are artificial limbs made
in this day of progress that the
manned man need no longer drag out
dreary life. He can be almost his
own self again by the help of science.
and continue to do a good days work,
after having made the supreme sac
rifice for country. This is one OF the
most encouraging phases of the war.
Where the crippled soldier Of II GEN.
tury--eYen n half century ago was
fated to a life of restricted activity.
the victim of battle is now assured a
happier lot. In times gone by it too
often has been the destiny sof the
manned soldier to become a public
charge, a 4forlorn figure on the corner
with outstretched palm. Blessed is the
days that has seen the saving of heroes
from such an end.

(The New York Evening Worldly
The business of making over wound
ed and incapacitated soldiers is be-
coming one of the most important un-
<lertakings OF science. Men who have
lost one hand or both. men who are
partially or totally blind. and men
without legs, are being taught to do
things that ordinarily would require
hands. feet and eyesight. Many in
situations in France and England are
devoting all Of their energies to re-
making men who have been shattered
by the war.
II Is a comparatively simple thing TO
teach n blinded steaographer the touch
hySzana; tvrA' ftsr fgi1 he may not have
known 1t before his affliction. BY the
use of a commercial monograph in
stead of stenography he can return to
his old place and be worth just as
much economically as before. Num-
bers of blind men are being taught to
operate the typewriter. and will take
up life again in this clerical capacity
although formerly they were engaged
in some wholly different occupation.
Soldiers who have lost one hand
find it possible to do many KINDS Of
work. A one-armed man may make
a very good farmer and there are
numerous mechanical tasks in which
his one hand will suffice. But it is. an
inestimably more difficult thing TO
make a wage Garner of a man who has
been unfortunate enough to lose both
arms. Still that very thing Is being
achieved. The artificial hands. which
are SO skilfully made. go long way
toward solving the problem.
There is a case on record of O
French violinist who had both arms
shot away in the early days of the
war. When he had got well again
this musician was given pair OF
artificial hands. The yearning to play
