THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"HURRAHl"

THOUGH apparently or Anglo
i Saxon origin because 1t Is
an exclamation used principally
by English-speaking people,
"Hurrah !" is of Teutonic an
cestry, being derived from the
word hurr, also the basis OF the
English verb hurry" II Is, in
fact. only an amplificatlon of
this German word, which made
its first appearance in English
In the form of "Hurray"-a pro-
nunciation which Is probably
more popular today than the use
of the broad "a" indicative of
the "ah" sound.
Examination of the marching
songs and martial literature OF
Germany at the time of the
NNpoleonlc wars shows that
"Hurrah!" was frequently used
by the Prussian soldlery at that
time and even began to seep
into the French language In the
form OF hourra. But the resi-
dents of the other side of the
Rhine preferred to cling to their
"vivel !" an ejaculation which is
interviewer with French history
for centuries past. The Ger
mans also soon abandoned the
exclamation In favor of "Hoch !"
but the English took It up and
English-speaking people have
found In II an extremely salts
factory means of expressing
their enthusiasm and approval.

years of constant companionship with
the child the friend had become so
attached to it that she refused.
Disappointed, Mrs. Brooks and her
husband moved from Kirksville to
Enid to make their home. She con-
tinued her requests for the boy in
many letters sent the friend, to which
few replies were received. But at all
times did the friend maintain that she
could not part with one whom she now
looked on as her son.
When the boy was sixteen years old
the true mother heard that he had
married. Later she learned of his en-
listment in the United States army,
and his dispatch to the backgrounds
of France. From that time until few
days ago she heard nothing Of him,
and had given him up as killed In bat
tie.
But the boy, now young man, had
returned safely from the front After
his discharge he went to Kansas City
to make his home.
Soon after his return from overseas
fuckers foster mother was taken i'll.
He made the trip to the home, and 1t
was then that his mother" who died
soon afterwards, confessed that the
woman who had called at their home
many times, and who was always
spoken of to him as Aunt Mllly, was
really his mother. She told him his
mother lived in Oklahoma.
Tucker then instituted a search for
his mother. He succeeded In tracing
her to this city, and while here on
business called at her home And thus
1t was that mother and son were re-
united after a separation of 81 years.

Chinese Carry Stoves.

Chinese women wear practically the
same clothes in winter as in summer.
In the most severe weather, however.
they wear heating baskets under their
cloaks.
These baskets are plain wicker ones
such as we use for trash. Inside the
baskets charcoal warmers are placed.
They will radiate heat for hours. The
charcoal is mixed with chemicals that
generate oxygen, and thus the char
coal will burn constantly even though

At another time a Mccoy house
was burned and man and little girl
shot. The McCoys killed two men, "a

were "sympathizers" with the Hat

but without much success. Some gov

were trials, but the killings were re-

the scheme, and next spring her hus-
band will be running for alderman on
the strength of it.
Nowadays the women never get
down to brass tacks and do real work.
They must make a society function out
