SLOW GROWTH OF GRAMMAR
Interesting to Note Its Progress Since
the Days of Chaucer and
Shakespeare.

In the days of Chaucer there were
undoubtedly differences among writ
ers which made their grammar AMI
spelling seem singular to us; yet crude
though they were, the art of literary
composition was we'll advanced.
That, however, was not the greatest
age; it came in the Elizabethan pc
riod; and while the literary peculiari-
ties of Shakespeare's style were strong
ly defined, it could not be said in any
sense that they revealed lack of knowl-
edge in either grammar or spelling,
the standards of that day being suited
to the culture of the time.
And great advance had been made
over the days of Chaucer. In the days
of Addison, Johnson. Swift, Congreve
and Goldsmith we find a great advance
with more unity in both grammar and
! spelling.
The authorized version of the Bible
in the line of literary workmanship
roted the greatest advance of all and
/ reached a point which has not been
surpassed if, indeed, equaled.
There was a certain latitude in spell.
! ing, it is true, to which we today lock
back with interested curiosity: but
even that was not the result of igno.
rance, but rather of custom, which al.
lowed the latitude. and it was in nc
sense literary disfigurement.-Ch Christ.

Cities by No Means Alike IN Hues
Which Attract the Eye OF
the Traveller.

Have you ever noticed how cities
sometimes seem to have their own spe-

American Adventures" the book in
which he and Wallace Morgan re-
corded, in words and pictures, what
they think is the most picturesque part
of our country-the South.
Paris is white and green-even
more so, l think, than Washington"
Mr.. Street continues.
Chicago is gray; so is London usu-
ally, though 1 have seen it buff at the
beginning of heavy fog. New York
used to be a brown sandstone city,
but is now turning to one Of cream
cOlored brick and tile; Naples is bril-
liant with pink and blue and greec
and white and yellow; while as for
Baltimore, her old houses and her
new are, as Baedeker puts it, of cheer

but often enough to establish the color
of red brick as the city's predominant

The Drauon Scores.


The Palmyra was once again ON its
siding. Marshall was at the front
again; having made another of his
swift dashes from Tucson. This time
he expected officially to close the gate.
Claudia was with him. She never left
the car, unless it were to step out to
the platform to see what she could

Hardin and Rickard had been devot-
ing anxious weeks. A heavy rainfall
and cloudburst in the mountains of
northern Arizona had swollen the feed

down to the Colorado above Yuma.
The erOding streams carried noun
tains in solution which settled against
the gate. a scOur starting above and
below it. Relief had to be given on
the jump. A spur track was rushed
across the bypass above the gate, as
the closing of the Inflated gate with
the flashboards was no longer possible.
A rock-fill was the only means of
closure. In the distant quarries men
were digging out rock to fill the call
from the river.
Marshall came down to see the COM
pleted spur. Before he reached the
intake, the first rock train had moved
onto the spur track. The trestle had
settled, the train had been thrown
from the rails and wrecked.

The murder of Maldonado shook the

the office, announced that they were
on the track of criminal, the mur-

an Indian named Felipe. He repeated
the story Richard had heard before.
Would the senior give his respected
permission for notices to be posted
about the camp? A description of the
Indian, reward for his capture; the
favor would be lnestimable.
