The old dictionary sell about *‘transpire’ and “‘perspire” is still worked with so much assiduity as 1o lead one to suppose that there is none other to be had. But there ave others quite as good, says the St. Louis Post. Take three words: ‘“‘Reeking,” “desiccated” and “lurid,” and K your friends what they understind by them “Recking?’ onc will say. “Why, reeking means dripping with molsture, souaked with wet. Another will say that it means “slippery, slimy; as with fiith.” “Reeking with filth. Iaving o pungent, unpleasant odor.” If you can get a bet that the word does not mean aunything of the kind, take it. It is sure money, If he won't bet you'll have almost as much pleasure in noting his sur- prise when you tell him t “reeking” means “‘smoking,” “steaming.” A chimney n reek or a mew pipe can reck. When a horse reeks with moisture it is because its flanks smoke and steam. Jean Ingelow writ No flame did flash or fair blue reek Rose up to show me his place. That is the surest catch-word of the three. “Desiceated” is preity good, though. Nine out of every ten will instanfly say that the word means: “Chopped up in little bits Smashed up in small pieces.” In this word as in “‘reeking,” the process of change from the real meaning can be traced. Anything very wet would reek in f weather, s0 the wetness was assumed to be the real characteristic of reek. Protty mueh the only article in common use to which the adjective ated” Is applied is cocoanut prepared in cakes and pies. It is chopped up in small bits. But it is chopped up’ that it may be thoroughly dried, and ‘“thoroughly dricd” is the only proper meaning. “Lurid” is a word a litte better known Ask a man what color lurid is and he may answer corre but the chances are that he will ‘red, flamiing, orange or bright yellow.” Of course, lurid means smoky or dull color, London fog is lurid; thick suffo- cating smoke is lurid. Lurid and livid are almost synonymous “Loarid flames’” are flames almost choked with smoke, A lurid sunset is not a brilliant one, but one dull and gray and cheerless, e COLOSSAL FORTUNES. sures of Wealth Which Powerless to ¢ By a caleulation by an American statistician, Journal, it seems that seventy citizens of the United States posse: d among them an aggregate wealth of £540,000,000. That gives an average of about 7,500,000 apiece. To come to particulars: There was one estate we refrain here from mentioning names— 'l:lYl)ll-ll as worth no less than 10,000,000, There were five individuals valued at £20,- 000,000; one valued at £14,000,000; two valued at £12,000,000; six valued at’ £8,000,000; four valued at £7,000,000; thirteen valued at 000,000; ten valued at £5,000,000; four valued at £4,500,000, and fifteen valued at £4,000,000. he brain reels before such figures. They expross measures of wealth which the ordi- nary mortal is powerless to grasp. M the Brain sp. vear or two ago says Chambers' is Besides these sevent collossal fortunes there are fifty other persons in the northern states alone valued at over £2,000,000 each, thirty of them being valued in all at £90, 000,000, There were some little time ago published lists of sixty-three millionaires in Pennsylvania possessing in the aggregate £60,000,000, and of sixty persons In thre villages near New York whose wenlth aggre gated £100,000,000. In Boston fifty families pay taxes on annual incomes of about 000 each We have nothing to comy e with such in- Qividual cases of wealth in Great Britain. Baron Rothschild and Lord Overstone each left about 3,500,000; the late Lord Dudley left £4,000,000; the late duke of Buccleuch, estimated to be the richest Scotchman, left eatates valued at £6,000,000, One living English duke s valued at £10,000,000 and an. other at £8,000,000, but not many names could be added to these to place against the above list of American fortunes. In 1884 there 104 persons in the United King whose incomes from business profit returned as over £50,000 a year. In 1580 were only seventeen estates which pald probate duty on about £260,000 each. - Arrives Home.

Joseph H. Choae, the great lawyer, re- cently said that the suffering, re as it s among the vast number of unemployed workers,” would be intensificd beyond de- ption were, ithnot that the poor, who little, most humanely share that with their fellow suffcrers. Committees representing the Fall River Cotton Manufactugers association and the Fall River Mule Spinners association held a conference recently. The manufacturers said that a majority of the trimmers favored a 10 per cent reduction in wages; the spinners preferred a curtailment of production. No agreement was reuched. The factory inspectors of New York state recently met in convention and expressed themselves strongly in favor of the eight- hour work day, especially for women and children. The eight-hour laws of other states are quoted, and the example of the cigarmakers in enforeing the cight-hour day is declared worthy of general imitation. The petition to the legislature to provide relief for the unemployed by Instituting a system of parks, bathhouses, municipal lodg- ing houses and meeting halls, which is being cireulated in New York City, is gaining sig- natures rapidly. The petition was started by Dr. Stanton Coit, who expects to get 50,000 signatures and thinks the legislature will regard the names with awe. Mr. Ryder has introduced into the New York assembly a bill providing in cities of more than 10,000 inhabitants for direct legh lation. Any bill petitioned for by 5 per cent of the voters shall be either passed by the council or voted on at the next election, while, on the “initiative” of 10 per cent of the voters a special election Is at once to be held. The “referendum” is only to be op- tional with the city council.

The college youth, himself They just waking up to the charm of literature or the fascination of scientific experiment, was led instinctively to pass on to his in- quiring pupil some spark of the divine fire of original study.
