funny joke about this man named Michael

and as lucky in his own home as a dog
in church.

these usurping female cocks of the walk

night hour of childbirth is one bit of
human sympathy
LET him but ask in a troubled way of
one of them flying in or out of the room
from where the clear young calls of the
new born issue, Lizzie, let you pause long
enough in flight to tell me for the love of
God am I a father or mother or what?
And the best he gets is a rebuff or worse,
which at best is as soft and stunning as
the kick of camel

OF course, friends, I'll say that in way
it is.
But in heavens name, friends, why not
give the poor lad bit of sympathy? But
no! Let him look for sympathy, as the
boys say, in the dictionary So what does
he do? Mother of us all. what does he
not do? Out into the night he goes, black

and Are Accepted BY All

times required to describe new things in
the arts, sciences, &C.
When Morse invented his code handy
word had to be made and so arose tele-
graph and variety of derivatives. The
airplane has given us In turn several new
words. Slang gives us novel word now
and then.
For instance, the word boycott" had no
treble at all in finding its way into our
tongue anG into most European languages.
1t arose from tn. treatment OF Capt Boy
colt of Lough Mask House in the County
Mayo in 1880. Boston" new Word for
a new card game, got into the language
earlier. 1t comes from the siege OF our
city Boston in 1775-76 and the moves OF
the game follow all the strategic moves
in this military history.
Pomp, meaning a solemn procession,
comes from the Latin word ponipe, which
was in turn derived from the Latin verb
pcmpefn, which means to send. NEEDLE,
to mix, is q distortion of the word middle,
but II has as good a place in the language
now as its forebear.
Who knows where the word haber-
dashery comes from? Ask any man who
sells neckties, collars and other little
things to adorn (perhaps) the person of
man and he hasn't the least idea. Look up
the word in the standard dictionaries:
the search will not be rewarded. 1t prob
ably comes from the question in French
"Aveg Uoas dn potter" or avoirdupois, or 1t
may come from the German question
Have you that?" Any derivation is really
guess.
Quite otherwise is the origin of the
word humble pie. II comes from the eat
ing by servants long years ago OF pie made
from the umbles, or entrails, of the deer.
There Is considerable entertainment and
not little knowledge to be gained by
looking up the origin of words. Why not
add It to the list of popular indoor sports?
The New York herald., 1922-01-29

a %OST people take their words (and
MI their phrases too) ready made;
that is, they learn a small vocab-
ulary from hearing other people talk, and
afterward, finding the same words in
books and Dictionaries they are embold-
ened to use them in their speech and
writing. If they ever wonder where these
words came from originally it is IN a
vague, listless way, rather like the way
they look upon mysterious astronomy
II one pins comparatively small class
down to their actual knowledge of the
English language one can learn something
more definite but still nebulous. This
small educated class really has heard Of
the Angles and Danes who impinged their
Anglo-Saxon boom. II will tell you also
how julius Cesar brought his cohorts into
Britain and almost succeeded In making 1t
a Latin speaking island.
Coming down to the year 1866, the same
cultivated persons explain by means OF
the Conquest the large number of French
words that have been more or less Angli-
cized that we use every day. And when
we ask why there are so many German
words in our tongue It is only necessary
to recall the fact of common Teutonic
origin of the sailors and beachcombers
who lived either in the fens or along the
shores OF Europe and England They
spoke what may be called common Ian
guage.
After Shakespeare. Milton, Dryden, Ben
Jonson, Sam Johnson and other notable
writer's had introduced more Latin, Italian
and French words into the language and
invented few of their own English may
be said to have been finished. Really
every language, including English, is
extraordinarily conservative and resents
new words. All the same new words do
get into them. These words are some

ME man in the street does not

HE man in the street does not
know a star in the sky."-Emer-
son. Last week we spoke, rather
briefly, of the look at the moon man who
implores the man, in the street to take
look at the moon through a telescope "for
tho small sum of ten cents" There is
nothing to prevent the man in the street
from looking at the stars for the same
ten cents In fact, the proprietor of the
telescope definitely makes this part of his
appeal.
And get good look at the stars!" he
shouts after he has advised a peep at the
moon AS many people heed his counsel,
it would seem that Emerson, who is usu-
ally right, is wrong this time.
We, for one, had. a good look at Sirius,
the dog star, the other night. We were
skeptical at first because we couldn't hear
Sirius bark, but the telescope man assured
us-in a very Sirius tone-that we were
looking at the dog star. And who are we
to doubt his word?
Another star that interested us was one
that the telescope man described as Phos-
phor. This is very bright star; in fact,
1t has phosphorescent glow.
telescope peep at the moon revealed
the little blotches that the barker described
as "the rivers and mountains" Perhaps
the gentleman is right, but we are Of the
opinion that these blemishes are freckles
on the face of the man in the moon.

THE FENCE CAT.

- \ N got still another grudge
n against the people Of to-day
said the Fence Cat. I'm the old
days when poor hungry cat went around
to the back door of restaurant they'd
throw her scrap of meat or fish tail.
What do they throw us nowadays? A
mean look cats got as much chance of
gettin' something to eat there as he's got
of gettin' a job inside as waiter. Not
that a cat wouldn't give better service
than some of the dumbbells that work In
restaurants these days. But I'm gettin'
away from the main point.
GAS I was sayin', restaurant keepers
don't give us tumble no more when we
go around the back door for bite to eat.
Believe me, it's shame. And what's the
cause of it? Science. The guy who in
vented science ought to get run over by
trolley car. Since science discovered that
leftovers make good fertilizers the restau-
rant keepers save the leavings and sell
'em to the fertilizer people.
"That word fertilizer was a new one
on me. looked It up in the dictionary
the other day. 1t says, "a substance used
to render the soil fruitful II that's all
the idea is, why do they deprive us of meat
and fish scraps and the like o. that? Why
can't they just use the no account apples
an bananas? That would make the soil
fruitful II that's all they're after. But no.
They gotta take everything an deprive us
of our meal ticket It's shame, / tell
you.
well, so long. I'm gonna try an hunt
up a mouse"

TN our favorite restaurant the other
day two of our friends-who were
partaking of the succulent dish
were having an argument as to the proper
way to spell "sauerkraut." Bill said
s-o-u-r-k-r-a-u-t was right; Fred held out
for s-a-u-e-rc-r-a-u-t.
You're all wrong, Bill" cried Fred Il
asked a German the other day and he said
my way was right"
IT don't care if you asked the Kaiser!"
retorted Bill "The right way is so-u-r-"-
you're cuckoo, Bill! Plumb cuckoo,
tell you! The only way sane man ever
spells 1t is s-a-u-"--
Jaw, rats!" snarled Bill gazing fondly
at a dish of meat balls that he obviously
would have enjoyed hurting, one by one
at the chap who insisted he was wrong.
The argument continued until we sug-
gested an armistice until a dictionary
could be consulted. The armistice de-
clared, the three of us hunted up, die
tionary and to the everlasting dismay of
the quarrelers and to our own keen de-
light the dictionary declared both Fred
and Bill to be wrong. Two spellings were
given--s-o-u-r-c-r-o-u-t and s-a-u-er-k-r-a-u-t,
neither of them in agreement with Fred's
or Bills version.
''Well, guess the dictionary ought to
know" said Bill ruefully.
yeah, guess so," mumbled the equally
chastened Fred
The dictionary, we suppose, is right, but
an amusing wartime practice occurs to us
nd Yhon of al
is liberty cabbage. Maybe the next
edition of the dictionary will have it that
way.

voung father wears the hat home again.
He sways friends, like lily gemmed with
dew. Friends, in word, he's awash!
"The pity Of it! But you and he and the
likes of all of us have only ourselves to
blame. For had you and me and all young
fathers of the land been as watchful as
these slithering, sneaky, white livered,
cayery faced minions of this fatuous, fat
headed and wholly fallacious body known
as the Anti-Saloon League of America, the
young fathers Of to-day would still be en-
joying their inalienable and Heaven sent
right to bring forth their young in their
cups!
To-day, alas, it is in soberest hours OF
trial and travail that the babes of our
young men are born into the Great Ameri'
can Desert Yet nevertheless are the
young ones always welcome.
Listen! They are all there is in life,
friends-the little ones--worth conti-
mental damn! Let you take an old mans
word for it. The older you grow the more
you come to realize that your children
are the only thing worth the mention.
"And so let you go home to your own
young this night, friends, confident and
content in the thought that in all this
beautiful world the best and loveliest OF
your possessions is that which greets you
at the door, friends-be it one foot high or
a six footer-and helps the coat off OF you,
friends, and pinches fondly the whitening
stubble of your withered old cheek and
says to you in tones that are worried,
''Tis a cold night, daddy, for you to be out.
Let you come in, dear, by the fire. where
it's warmer"

MOONODY.

A falling moons a thing l dread,
And so do you, guess;
If it should topple on my head
I'd be lovely mess!
falling star that hits chap
Is cause for less dismay;
You simply brush it off your lap
And go upon your way.
1 fondly hope the thoughtful wight
Who hung the moon in air
Saw that the fastenings were tight
Enough to hold it there.
For it would hardly be joke
To any one in town
If the moonbeams that support It broke
And sent 1t crashing down!

some one realizes what I'm up against.

to us like a touch of emotion, 1T amt
