Shakespeare Latin.
Phrases Scattered Through Plays
Cited Against the Baconians.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: In an
swer to Joseph Thorp's letter asking II
Shakespeare employed any Latin phrases
other than those in Hamlet and "Ju-
Illus Cesar" he will find in Loves
Labour's Lost" the speeches Of HoIo-
ter1les. the schoolmaster, interlarded
with Latin words and expressions.
In Act Nv. in scene with Sir No
thGniel, a curate. he employs Latin fire.
quently in q disconnected manner, such
as "haud credo." "sanguis." terra
''vir sapit qui pauca loquitur." In an
other scene he says "Fauste. precor
,gelida quando pecus omne Sub umbra
Ruminat."
Other Latin in this play Is in Act
". "Sats quod sufficit." says Holo-
termes, also "Novi hofninem tanquem
te." Another character who uses Latin
expressions occasionally is Sir Natham-
ieI. a curate. He says 'Laus Dec bene
intelligo." "videsne quis VENT" and
"video ct gaudeo., But Loves La
bour's Lost" is an early play and was
characterized many years ago by John
Fraser. professor of bellies lettres in
Glasgow University, as splendid rubbish
Sir Hugh EvGns in "The Merry
Wives Of Windsor" uses a few Latin
words. But Shakespeare had no title
to rank as a classical scholar. His
monumental genius enabled him to dis
pense with profound knowledge OF
Latin and Greek. His small Latin and
less Greek" was sufficient and he alb
sorbed the spirit Of the original ir
translations. 1t Is this fact that makes
the holders Of the fantastic theory that
Shakespeare was not the author of the
literature that passes under his name
ridiculous. for Francis Bacon was 9
scholar but sorry poet.

The Water Lily.

Cdsfalia odordfd.
On the mountain lakes rich sapphire.
Bluer than the noontide azure.
Clean in snowy consultations
Water lilies in the sunshine.
Pure as flashing stars at midnight,
White as Vega or Capelia.
Ranged In forms like great Orion.
Aquila or glittering Argo,
Or some Southern Cross Of glory.
Where ! swim to pluck one blossom
All their perfume Is borne to mo
Ger the Furnished blade blue water.
Like the wafture from far gardens.
Mixed with frailest scent of spices.
Greeting voyagers to Arabia.
Then to draw the STEMS full tether
must dive beneath my lily.
Follow down to amber darkness.
To its rootage in the mire.
Where it's ruddy cord emerges
from a black and Shiny chaos.
Swimming shoreward with my treasure
At its stems full length a-ripple.
seem towing some bright Sirius
From Its ornamental station
In the lakes starred vault cerulean.
Yet how tender is its beauty.
Not aloof like astral splendors.
Flower star that yields it's sraces
To our touch and scent and vision!
At its base the outspread calyx
Cleaves to four smooth shards OF emcr
aid,
Blades OF tiny helicopter,
Meath the ranks of lustrous petals
Rayed and pointed, from the outmost
That are tinged with blush Of crimson
On their fawless snowy rondure.
To the inmost cirque Of whiteness
Pure as peaks Of vestat fire.
Guarding all the golden stamsos.
See the glow against the petals
At this very heart of beauty.
From the pollened keys reflected.
Fair as through cathedral windows
Tender lights Of chrome and topazl
Sweet Castalia odorata,
fragrant chastity incarnate.
Fitting symbol for bright sainthood
And all triumphs of the Spirit,
In a world where though the mire.
Though the slime be deep beneath 1t.
FYet strong aspiration rises
To the mystic waveiess levels
And the sunlight Of communion.
Where as blooms the lovely lotus,
Breathing incense of devotion.
1t may open all its treasure
In the Towering Of rapture.

The Vanishing Dipper.

According to ISABEL NJ. LEWIS OF
the United States Naval Observatory
we are going to lose celestial land
mark. The Big Dipper is coming
apart. Some OF the pieces are going
one way and some another. After
being so twisted out of shape as to be
no longer recognizable the Dipper
will vanish altogether.
The reason we are going to lose
our old neighbor of the northern
skies is that it is made up OF two
families and both are moving away
from the old homestead in the heav-
ems. Five stars of the Dipper be-
long to the Big Bear tribe. Two
others, the one at the end of the Dip
per handle and the one furthest from
il in the bowl, are not members of
the tribe. The Big Bears are moving
away from us. They will grow DIM
mer and DINNER and finally pass out
of sight. Meantime the Dipper's head
and tail stars are travelling by them
selves in quite another direction.
Bdhetnasch is the name OF one;
Merak is the other.
The Big Bear family settlement COW
crs a good deal of territory in space.
IL is one hundred and fifty light years
wide. That is, 1t takes light CEN
tury and a half to go across 1t. Light
travels, the scientists tell us, at the
rate Of 10000 miles second. AS
there are S6,400 seconds In day 1t
figures out that light gets over con-
siderably more than sixteen billions
of miles every twenty-four hours.
Multiply these billions by 365 and
you have the space in miles that
light covers in year. Then when
you come to multiply this last result
by $50 you begin to get into figures
suggestive of the purchase price OF
gunny sack suit of clothes in Rus
IAN rubles.
rt is a large settlement, but II is
moving away at the rate of uncount-
able millions Of miles year and has
been ever since the days of the Chal-
dean star gazers, and that too with
out any noticeable change in the Dip
psr's general appearance in the in
terval Which enables Miss LEWIS
to add that we shall not lose sight Of

but also of the fact that great steps

captures the worlds attention.
The use of an@sthetics was known
to the ancients. PLINY the Elder tells
of the use of mandragora In surgery.
There are records of a Chinese ply
sician who In the third century SINH
larly used hemp. The knowledge that
pain could be alleviated or obviated
entirely for brief periods was never
lost, but it was not until after the
middle of the nineteenth century that
apRsthetics came into anything like
general use.
Sir HUMPHREY DAvr, the English
chemist. suggested in 1900 the use Of
nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, as
an an@sthetic. Nearly fifty years
passed before professional brother
of DR.. MORTON in dentistry, DR..
HORACE WELLS, actually demonstrated
painless tooth extraction. FARADAY,
in 1918, knew that ether could pro-
duce insapsibility; its possibilities
were discussed at that time by sew
eral American physicians, but no use
was made of 1t for more than twenty
years afterward.
In 1912 DR.. CRAWFORD w. LONG OF
Georgia is said to have used ether in
an operation. DR.. MORTON first dem
onstrated its value in 1S46, when DR..
JOHN C. WARREN Of Boston used it in
an operation at the Massachusetts,
General Hospital.
