terry. the bewilderment as to who had
so viciously attacked the gambler and
then spirited away the girl, would
serve TO facilitate our escape.
I stopped and removed pistol from
Kirby's pocket, dropping it. together

Another word of French and Latin

Another word of French and Latin
birth Is tart. Tart is a culinary cor
ruption Of the word "tourte' Frencn),
derived from ''Tartine," slice OF
bread. This comes from the Latin
"torqueo," to twist, hence the WORD
"torta" mans a twist or roll of bread.
In the middle ages there was defici-
ency in plates and so, for substitute,
an undercrust of bread served as a
plate. For long time in France this
undercrust Of the 'tourte," or "terte'
was the most common Of plates. After
everything, had been served diners ate
even their plates
In time these dinner plates, made OF
dinner rolls, came to be prepared spe-
ciaIly and developed into cakelike
batter which was filled with dainty
food. And go they were called tarts
and tartlettes. and were served as
distinct dlsh.--Gas Logic.
