The price of w indow glass has dropped; but not with a crash, “Too Latitudinarian” Not a@ little eredit will, some time, be given the legal profes sion for refinement of our Eng: lish. For instance, there's that Chi- cago lawyer who seeks to get a child away from “the woman” of “an eternal triangle.” He brave ly resists the temptation to de scribe her as “a bad egg.” with more of less shocking particulars as to contents, and simply pre- sents her to the court as “too latitodinarian” to have charge of a wife's child. Latitude, in the abstract, so to soy, means scope, size, freedom from restraint. You can see how comprehensive, limitless is “lati tudinarian” when applied to per- sonal conduct. The description is bound to become fashionable in discussion of other folks, Mrs. Blank, for instance, is “too lati- tudinarian,” meaning that the hearer can go as far as he or she likes im believing that Mrs. B. is not all that she should be. It's much nicer than setting forth the lady's errors in two-x«y English, with a newspaper picture of her a bathing suit.
