SPELLING REFORM. "
Tlie Phonetic Phenomena of the Word
"IUienlx."
They were talking about spelling re
form and the Idiosyncrasies of English
spelling in general.
"There's that very word 'phonetic,'"
said ono of the men. "That's a sample
of English spelling. Tho reformers cull
their system the 'phonetic system,' and
yet they have to spell 'phonetic with a
'pho' in order to let people know what
they mean. The very word that means
'spelled as pronounced' Is as far from
It as possible."
"Now, now!" drawled his friend.
"You're too hard on the good old Eng
lish speller. You ought to be proud of
'phonetic' Why, that word Is so trim
med down and sawed off and cut short
that I wouldn't know It was English if
I mot It alone on a blank page. You
ought to thank tho language for that
word. It Is a beautiful word. That
'pho' might have been spelled like
'dough' and the 'net' like 'ette' In 'ro
sette' and tho 'Ic' like 'llo,' In 'liquor.'
That would be a good old stylo English
word nhoughncttclq. But It 1b com
ing! Phonetic spelling Is coming! Look
at the word 'phenlx.' It is spelled 'phe
nlx' everywhere now, and I remember
It always used to be 'phoenix.' That o'
has gone. That shows"
"Nothing!" said tho objector. "What
does It show? That the phenlx la a
bird, Isn't the phenlx a bird? Yes!
Well, that round thing you say was an
'o' was an egg. That's all. 'Twas Just
an egg, and the phenlx laid tho egg.
That's all." Success Magazine.
THE ESKIMO.
lie linn No MiiNtcr mill In AliNolutely
Independent.
There are no chieftains in tho Eski
mo community. They all regard them
selves as free men, with an equal right
to hunt, llsh, sleep and eat. Everybody
shift for himself. IIo Is absolutely
and unconditionally Independent. His
only ambition is to bo a good hunter
and to rear sons who will Inherit his
skill with lance and harpoon, lie has
helped himself against tho elements
for centuries, and tho white man de
scending on his shores ostensibly to
confer the blessings of civilization has
never been ablo to Improve his condi
tion, but only to detract from the old
time happiness and advantages of tho
aboriginal Eskimo community. Tho
natura.l helpfulness of the. Eskimo Is
(li tusin of tho socialistic state In
which In; lives. He will risk hln life to
save that of another, oven his enemy.
He will share tho spoils of the. hunt
with his nolnhhoi'H. If his neighbor '
dies and his wife Is loft alone with
children he will provide for her until
she marries iijjnlit. IIo does not shin- '
dor or tell tales; lie does not abuse any
one, and he does not lljrht. He is a .
man of peace. Ho loves pence for its i
own sake, and his life Is one Ioiik. labo
rious attempt at happiness for himself '
and his people. Chicago Chronicle.
Mow (ho KiKyillil Sinn.
Everybody is familiar with tho rasp
liiK notes known us the katydid's
"soni;." It Is the male only that is ca
pable of etulttlm; tho well known
bounds, and he does It In a most pe
culiar manner. His "vocal orpins" are
at the base of his wIiikh and consist of
two lint excrescences of thin, dry
membrane. It is the rubbing of these
two membranous plates together which
produces tho "souk." If your shoulder ,
blades were so loosely put together i
that one could be slipped under tho
other and tho underside of one and the
upper side of the other were so roiich '
that tho operation of slipping them
past each other would cause a rasping '
sound you could lliiltate tho katydid's
musical efforts very nicely.
Why Thoro Aro So Slimy SiiiKIin.
At tin" time of tlie adoption of stir
names every artisan whoso work re
quired the striking blows ou metal
was known as a smlter or smith, and
the community therefore had Its black
smith, whitesmith, goldsmith, sliver
smith, arrowsmith and several others
of the same character. The number of
Smiths of the present day may there
fore be readily accounted for when we
remember that each of the different
kinds of smiths wan as much entitled
to the use of his trade name for a cog
nomen as any other artisan. John the
blacksmith and John the coppersmith
were both known as John the smith, an
appellation which naturally resolved It
self Into the family name of John
Smith.
