When the lad or lassie of ; six years is started into the schools a .' considerable portion of the teachers’ ? time is spent in keeping them sitting ' bolt upright at their desks. To “rest them” they are marched around the room at regular intervals, all march- ing as nearly erect as they possibly can. The boy is given physical cul- ture ad nauseam to keep him erect and straight. The girl is sent away to some finishing school for young ladies, where she finds that to slouch ever so little from the prescribed atti- tude is one of the seven deadly sins. And all the time the grip of the an- cestor who walked on his hands and feet is pulling against the hardening of the unnatural habit. Au. 0 ULJC processes of cmlization are not check- ed in any degree by the girls who sell the ribbons, and the lingerie sitting down for a moment.

The poor white man is forced .to hold himself as nearly erect as pos- sible every minute of the day. If he slouches at his desk the chief clerk admonishes him to remember that the ofiice is not a lounging-room. If he iolls at his ease back of the counter for a needed rest of a minute or so, he fractures some iron-clad rule anent the slouchiness of the selling force.

'_.rmwu with the Dutch “Albasserdammm- landarenopsteckersvergaderinlokaal l” An effective little word is “synacafe- gorematic,” as it manages to com- press eight syllables into seventeen letters. It is perhaps not that there is a verse contaipg all but one poet, has a sinecure to select a rhyme for any word he chooses to employ, but such is not always the case. Ex- clusive of the ordinal numerals, most of which are unrhymable, .there are more than sixty words that have no rhyme. Well known examples of thae include such words as “gulf,” month,” orange,” “scarcie,” “silver,” “window,” “warmth,” “spoilt," and ““_asD-” fever, even x ' “cion, ” as it f English words 7 ,7-- uurua all rllyme perfectly. Further investigation re- veals the interesting fapt that, where~ as there is a great variety of words ending in “tion” and “.sion,” only five bear the termination “cion.” These five are “scion.” “coercion," "suspicion,” “opinicion.” and “in- I temecion.” ‘Epinicion,” meaning a. [song of victory, and “internecion,” gmeaning slaughter, are not in com- mon use; but the other three words tare familiar to all. It is perhaps ,- mrthy of remark that of words bear- 2 i i I ing the phonetically similar ending “tion” there are over one hundred 8111;111:165. lever, even more exclusive than f“cion,” as it is borne by just four English words. These are “stupen- dous,” “tremendous," “hazardous,” and “horrendous.” Curiously, all the ‘words in this latter group are adjec- such _ -V--- .., 1-3 uuah a KIIOWI- edge of these curiosities brings with it something of fascination and 'servcs to endear to us our curious old ’ language. I Noticeable is the fact that words which rhyme perfectly may have 8.1- together diflerent nerminations, as the words “gneiss” and “mice," and that words which terminate similarly In "suspicion,” “remission,” and “contrition” we have three words in which the final “ion” is preceded in each case by a different consonant; but, as the T and C both take the sound Of S, those words all rhyme Mrf'nnflu D.._L . . I Some of the Remarkable Things About the English Language. It is perhaps only natural that a language made up of so many hetero- geneous elements as is our own should abound in curiosities not to be found in a language whose develop- ment was little influenced by outside sources. or in a scientifically con- structed tongue likc Esperanto or Volapuk.
