EFFICIENT HOUSEKEEPING
BY Henrietta Graucl.
HOUSEHOLD ENGLISH.

The most modern woman of my ac-

&c how are new words in our daily con-
versAtIon and she SAYS they make her feel
cid Does 1t shock YOU To find the language
growing before your very eyes and IL your
ears?
When the world was in It's golden youth,
peacc was as common as the water YOU
wash your hands in. Fear and disease
were unknown. rivers flowed with wine
and cakes disputed with loaves to get into
your mouth as you walked abroad. Telc-
cides tells Us about this in his poetry. But
now We live in the realistic age, We are
fighting for material things. Our language,
like ourselves Is growing and becoming
more expressive. No doubt e how Will
BE- used as frequently IL the word
luncheon, when the BOYS come home.
Our word. 'table-board and term
''hospItable board came from the Saxon
mobiles habit Of putting board across
trcssies and keeping il loaded with bread,
meat and mead for all who hungered.
Now every home has it, sideboard
The word .'tumbler' 10 Us means 8
glass with stem, but as late as the year
100 cups and mugs had round bottoms

brought back the horns of the wild oxen
they killed when hunting They were
made into drinking cups. As they could
not stand alone, they had To be emptied
at a draught and laid down Therefore.
1t followed. The greater the hunters, the
larger the drinking horna fine excuse
for greedy drinking
The Romans used lump Of fat squeezed
around wick and stuck on sharp stick
for a light These were called "candels,
and when a bright light Was wanted
several sticks Of '.candels" were fastened
together; this was called "candeltrce
Our word larder. meaning pantry
iOT food, Is Norman. but the Saxon had
j word "splc-hus, meaning q food hut
As their chief food v Is bacon, it soon was
called .'spic and We today often hear
iaf pork called spec Fish and bacon
wcrc boiled together, ia early times, and
from this custom We still retain and use
the term - pretty kettle Of fish The
fish bacon and vegetables were all put
into the .cytel-hsch" " Or fish kettle aud
this "cytel answered for serving dish, too
There is an old Saxon rhyme that says
To rise Al five. to dine at nine.

Reviews of New Books

katharine Bird, broke into quiet old
Twickenham Town, somewhere down
South, she took the people by storm.
Not that she WAS hoydenish and absurd,
but that she was human and natural, and
especially overflowing with the love of life
and youth. They were antiquated and
reserved, living in an atmosphere of
ancestry and old families
Kitty tells her story in the first person
She thought at first she was in love-with
a romantic young man who had just got
ten out OF an engagement with another
young woman. But she was too sensible
at the bottom to engage herself to him.
KITTY was only sixteen, and besides, there
WAS another young man, BiIly-otherwisc
William Spencer Sloane-who had quite
large place in her feelings. And he was n
masterful young man, too.
The story of Kitty summer in Twick-
enham Town is most enhancing, as Kitty
tells 1T. She amazed the inhabitants, but
they loved her She opened their eyes to
some Of their fudge notions, and she gave
them an insight into real human love and
human character And with all her
frivolity and despite her youth she dis
played thoscqualities that tend TO makelIie
worth living. qualities of human under
standing and human sympathy, without
which the world would be worthless
Kitty sets down her experiences with an
airy attractivencss and vivaCiousness of
spirit that make the reading of this book
an exquisite pleasure II is n real charm.
