roo FEW or TOO MANY

There have been different estimates placed.on
the number Of words "a the English language,
But SOC. 900 is generally accepted as a. fair es.
innate.
OF these 800, 1000 not more than 10 per cent,
are in everyday practical use. Milton; who
wrote Paradise Lost" had a vocabulary Of not
more than $4,000 words. Shakespeare had
command Of is, 500 words.
But they were exceptional men. The highly
cultured man or woman Of this day rarely has a
vocabulary exceeding 5000 words. And very
seldom, it is said, will be found q person in the
ordinary walks of life who is able to. use more
than two or three theasands Of the 600, 900
words in the language. On the other hand
there are persons who are. of such a type that
they are limited conversationally to the use
of not more than 800 words.
Where do you rank? Are you up there with
Shakespeare? Do you fall in the 5000 class?
Or are you just one of the Ordinary folk"
a talking asset of between 1000 and 5000
words?
It is said of Marie Corelli that she never used
one word where 10 would do as we'll.
Perhaps, after all, the important thing is not
how many words do you use but which? We
are sometimes tempted to wish that our public
speakers knew fewer.-St. Paul News.

STATEMENT OF FOREIGN DEBT.

The present national debt is about $24, 0OO,-
900, 1000. As an offset to those obligations there
is owed the United States from foreign govern
ments over $40, 0O0, 600, 0O0. The effect on our
tax schedules could that sum, or a substantial
part of it, be collected, or even if regular pay
ments of interest upon it could be assured,
would be fundamental, yet there appears to be
widespread ignorance regarding it's present
status. Seldom is it discussed in the press, and
even men prominent in national affairs disclose
a lack Of familiarity with the subject that Is
little short of alarming when one considers it's
vital relation to the financial situation.
In the study of national fiscal policies and the
framing of financial legislation, including COM
prehensive revision of the tax laws, it is highly
important that we inform ourselves thoroughly
on the amount of bills payable now held in the
Treasury, the probability of early liquidation
thereof, and the status of the interest payments
thereon. The interest on the foreign debt
amounts to approximately half a billion dollars
= year, and if; it could be promptly collected the
interest charges on our own national debt could
he reduced by that amount, with a similar re-
duction in the annual tax burden; while il ar
engagements could Be the amortization
