"Tis more than midâ€"October, yet along the narrow garden The daisies loved of Michaelmas keep sturdily in flower; For tho‘ the evenings sharply fall, they find a way to harden The crop of comely blossoming that makes for me a bower. Yet autumn wears an apron, and the apron‘s eweet with lendings Of colors matched with comeliness of bicssom and of leaf, And daisies dear to Michae!mas, with dances and with bendings Forbid my heart to weary for the summer‘s beauteous sheaf. Old Time has made a nosegay. He ‘b‘ welcome to his plucking, Of tigerâ€"lilies, lad‘sâ€"love, and the tall cathedral spires, Of lupins, and snmapdragons where the bee is fond of sucking, And all the flowery likelinesses of youth and youth‘s desires. The automatic system of signalling was discovered accidentally at a epiritualistic seance. The many uses of borax were discovered through the accidental preservation of a dead horse in Yellowstone Park, in the United States. The system of coupling signals and working them all from one point and with a single action was the thought of a lazy pointsman, who hated to move. It was the burning of a starch factory which introduced to the world a cheap gum, and it was the omission of a workman to put size into the paper he wes making which produced 10004# dfi 40 inicaticsch us trectecdiatrctscotlten in is t in t i en alp. rennognndigaionepntvivig anicston Variations â€" Fredericks, Friedrich, ;f‘ pae rw }?:k:::.nm ::1 ::tw:;; p‘:o':\.;:;t Friedrichs, Fndr;ck;.

The populations of medieval Europe had one great advantage and conven!â€" ence which has not been passed down to their posterity. They had a comâ€" mon language for international comâ€" munication. The language of the ilschola.r, the educated man, was the same in all countries. Toâ€"day, it is true, most Europeans consider that they are not well edu-‘ cated unless they know two or three | languages beside their own. But 1n| those days it was not necessary to‘ know more than one tongue in mddl-| tion to the native one in order to conâ€" verse with scholars of all lands. ‘ This universal language, of course, was Latin, the language of the church. And at one period in medieval Engâ€" land, it was considered more importâ€" ant to know how to read and write Latin than Normanâ€"French. â€" Angloâ€" Saxon was "deader" then, so far as _reading and writing went, than Latin lis toâ€"day. [ M PVOIICYC | The "latynere" was the man who | could read, write, and speak Latin; in | short, the scholar. At a somowhnt* later period, Sir John Maunderville wrote: "And men alleweys fynden Latyneres to go with them in the conâ€" ‘trees and furthere beyonde in to tyme ‘ that men conne the language." PSAWC PPDTCY PROREUS OOE | ‘The difference between the sound of an "n" and an "m" is not great, but it is a good bit harder to say "latiner" than "latimer" in ordinary conversaâ€" tion.

Such is the desâ€" cription of Charles Dickens, given by Prentice in an account of his tour of the Unitetd States. A tendency for \overdreulng was always one of Dick:â€" ens‘s characteristics. A photograph of Dickens, taken in that th 1852, shows him in a frockâ€"coat with so gra a broad velvet collar, a waistcoat made one W of some furry stuff, and trousers of a direct! huge check.

WETBCUCENE Charles Lamb always dressed ln} black. "I take it," he said, "to be the: proper costume of an author.‘ When this was once objected to at a wedâ€" ding, he pleaded the raven‘s apology in the fable that "he had no other." His clothes were entirely black, and he wore long black gaiters up to the knees. _ "* Southey wore clogs; he had a fawnâ€" eolored allâ€"round coat and a cap with a knob to it. He never put on & swalâ€" lowâ€"tailed coat. Like Southey, Porâ€" | son, the great Greek scholar, had an: | utter contempt for appearances. When |Hu1m met him in the library of the London Instituion, he was dressed in an old rusy black coat, with cobwebs hanging to the skirt, and with a large patch of coarse brown paper covering the whole length of his noge.
