Sir,—Now that our legislators have re- turned to their homes we can breathe more freely, anithink. Much has been said about the various taxes imposed by the present Government. They have gained for themselves a remarkable repu- tation as hungry leeches, but taxation was inevitable. This has not surprised us. et alia, it was only to be expected that our leader should endeavor to go one better. Money must be found for past malfeasance and the miser’s proverb comes in, get it honestly if you can, if not, get it. But while we allow ourselves to be robbed of money, for the sake of all that is holy and true, let us take care of our reputation. Shouid we lose this, nothing will . indem- nify its loss. The Province is a family, the Government members occupying the position of heads of the family. A de- partmental official who plays fast and loose with his word, is more to be feared than the most deadly malaria. He can only be compared in his influence to leprosy. It appears in a_ very innocent form, but spreads with frightful rapidity until the whole carcase is a mass of corruption. Parents should lay this matter seriosty to heart. If our public men lie so outrageously to their constituen- cies, the baneful result will soon be ob served in our young people. Honest men, whatever their political proclivities ‘may be, must condemn the Premier for not re- deeming the promise given at the Lyceum. The appeal to the country should have been made. However, the seeds of disin- tegration are beginning to sprout up in the Government. Butin the meanwhile let the electors remember that the present Government holds office only just as Jong as the people have confidence in them. Pressure should be brought to bear upon the members that they do their best to conserve the true interests of the country, more especially on the side of morality. COUNTRYMAN. o<.- —_— — NOTES OF A WAYFARER, Cuanxce and luck combined (I think) bronght me to a halt at Kelly’s Cross, Lot 29, on the afternoon of Thursday, May 10th. Before being long chereI heard a concert discussed, and on finding out it was coming off that evening, I resolved at once to remain in the village over night and “take it in,” especially as I had heard abroad previously of the high order of the concerts at this place, and, I may say, on account of the hospitality of the people. Aboui 8 o’clock, for a small entrance fee, | found myself in the hall, and took some pains to procure myself a good prospective point in the back part of the hall. The latter was comfortably filled from stage to door by »n orderly, good-looking and ap- preciative audience, and when any new character entered the stage, by a little en- quiry I found out the name and general information concerning the same. It seems a mutual improvement Society is in exist- ence during each winter, and under iis auspices the entertainment was given to raise tunds to enlarge the library owned by the Society, and the Vice President of the Society (Mr. John Smith I learned) presided. The same gentleman gave a humorous reading in the course of the programme, which appeared to be his forte, and being faithfully read, was heart ily received. Solos rendered by two young ladies, Miss Monaghan and Miss McQuaid, were’ gems, so pathetically and moniously were the words sung. I have attended many concerts in town and country, but can say with no undue flattery that these two young ladies are not a whit behind some who are dubbed professionals. The leating spirit in the entertainment, whom I afterwards found out to be the secretary of the society, Mr. J.H. Monaghan, deserves credit for the yart he took. I would judge (and I think, Cink totally disinterested, have a fair field for so doing) that to him, I will not say absolutely, but largely, was the success of the entertainment due, Two choruses of school children were under his guidance, and they did credit to themselves and their leader, They are phenomena in the musical art, ages considered. Of course the best part, the part most appreciated in town or coantry, was the funny one. The gentlemen who personated the “funny fellows” did justice to their parts, their acting being very natural—no afiectation, but real, genuine, the originals themselves you would say. The secretary and an- other Mr. Monaghan and a air. Flood (I think) performed the comic parts to per- fection, the last named gentleman’s im- personation of Brod. Gardener being capital. Every time Brod. Gardener’s swarthy fist came down on de table he brought down de honse in laughter and applause. The reverend gentlemaa, the pastor of the place ([ understood) who took part in brightening and enlivening the enjoyment of the evening, will, I hope, pardon me for making any mention of him. He appears to be an adept on the violin, and his vocal pow ers are deep, voluminous, strong, melod- ious. It is pleasing to see a people’s pas- tortake an interest in all their aspira- tions, and even to add his mite to increase their social pleasures. This holds good with Rev. P. A. McElmeel, the pastor of Kelly’s Cross, Lot 29. The programme came toa close about 10.15 p. m., with the national anthem, and I left with the strong resolution of being present (if I could hear of it) at the next entertainment at Kelly’s Cross. Since last I visited this place it boasts of a tailor and a blacksmith. There is ample scope for one of St. Crispin’s knights here also. If the people had him, and the telephone, which, I understand, they are negotiating for, Kelly’s Cross would be weil supplied with accommoda- tions. Hoping they may have these nec- essary Couveniences on my next visit, and thanking them for favors received, I re- main, Arkansas TRAVELLER. + tow to Get a Suulight Picture, Send 25 “Sunlight soap wrappers (wrap- rs bearing the words “why does 2 woman oe old sooner than a man”) to Levev Bro3., Ltd., 43 Scott St., Toronto, and you wil] receive by post a pretty picture free from advertising, and well worth framing.

With such examples as Mercier, Fielding, | har- | VOL 33.—NO, 258 DICTIONARY MAKING.’ THE PRIMARY OBJECT OF A LEXE COGRAPHER IN HIS WORK, The Esteem in Which Great Literary Men Hold a Wood Dictionary —some- thing Aboat the Methods im Vague While the Making Proceeds, Dr. Holmes is reported to have said that if he could oly have three books he would choose the Bible, Shakespeare and the Dictionary. He added that few people fully appreciated the interest as well as usefulaess of a dictionary. Theophile Gautier said: ‘Do you read the dictionary? Itis the most fruitful and interesting of books. Words have an individual and a relative value. They should be chosen before they are placed in position. This word isa mere peb- ble; that a fine pearl or an amethyst.” The primary object of a lexicographer is not so much to establish new rules or new standards of authority as to ascer- tain what the world, through its great- est specialist, has agreed to accept as on the whole the best derivation or the Lest form of pronouncing, spelling or defining a word. Webscer and Wor- cester Loth crred in this regard, perhaps because in their time it was more diffi- cuit to obtain a consensus of opinion, and perhaps, also, because there was too much of ‘a one znan power” in con- trol of their dictionaries. The differ ence between lexicographers is not un- like the difference between statesmen. One watches the trend of popular opinion and leads by going with it. Another regerds more what he wishes to be than what can be at the time, and waits for the people to catch up with him. Perhaps they declive to follow, and he is then considered a doctrinaire —a dreamer. The practical lexivo- grapher belongs to the former class. if, in time, the existing standards change, then it is for his successors to record such changes. For exuimple, take the word alumin- ium or aluminum. It is a re- cent scientific term. The __ spell- ing has varied, some preferring the first form, others the second. In sucha cause, in favor of which shall the lexi- cographer decide? If he gives bcth as equally authoritative, nothing is settled, If he decides in favor of one, from his own standpoint, the public may ulti- mately decide on the other. What he properly does, therefore, is to write to several hundred scientific specialists, asking them to state their preference. The one which receives a sufficient ma- jority to indicate decidedly how opinion is verging, is either given the pre- ference or is stated as the authorita- tive form. This is the true principle to foliow in dictionary making, with only rare exceptions. Besides gathering information regard- ing words directly from many individu- als, the work of all reputable authors must be searched in order to learn the various meanings in common usage. With the growing demands of civiliza- tion, the coinage of new words does not keep up with the demand, and heuce there is a constant tendency to make _new applications of old words, often metaphorically. A sailor, a poet, an artist or a lawyer may all use the same word, but each with a meaning adapted to his own special calling. All these words and meanings must be searched out by the lexicographer, and must all be entered alphabetically into handy reference books with the utmost ac- curacy. This enormons vocabulary having been finished, each word is copied on separate numbered blank cards, which are bunched in groups of twenty-five. Foer of these packages are given toa definer. tere begins the really original work of the new dictionary. The defini- tion is the basis of such a work; itis the frame to which all the other parts of it are subsidiary. The work of the definer is of great difficulty. Not only must he give a clear and concise statement of the meaning of a word, gathering a cor- rect sense of that meaning from the row of Gictionaries before him, but he must Le extreinely careful that his definition does not infringe on the definitions of other dictionaries. When a definition has already been given ofa word which is complete, one can perceive that it is not easy to frame another equally satis- factory definition. Nor is it easy to de- fine some simple words except by terms so much more difficult as to make the definition more obtruse than the word detined. It ha* been the usage of lexico graphers to define some words by merely giving their synonyms. But that sys- tem is abandouaed in our latest diction- Fiom thirty-five to forty definers are employed on a modera cictionary, many of them specialists on various classes of words, such as acientific terms. Compound words are in Charge of a scholar who has madea study of the subject. There must also be special- ists for cross-references. When the ‘‘definer’s” work is done, then the definitions go up to the “re viewer” orsub-editor, who adds to them as occasion may require, but more often finds it necessary to draw his pen ruth- lessly across word after word, diffuse- ness in definition being one of the great- est difficulties to overcome. Then fol- low the quotations, gathered from the whole range of literature and science, giving the authorities for the variants in the meanings of a word. Thisis a most perplexing task; for the editor of this department not only has to select from many score of quotations offered him, but he must have so wide and thorough a literary knowledge as to be able to wake the weightiest selections. The package of definitions and quota- tions are then sent to the paster’s room, where the selected qnotations are at tached to the respective words. And now we come to the type-writer’s room. What trouble and cost might have been saved to the lexicographers of old if but the type-writer had been known to them! The amount of work involved simply in this copying process before a single page has been ‘‘set up,” is indi- cated by the fact that eighteen copyists were engaged for three years in type- writing half of one of the new diction- aries. The type-written copy must then go through the hands of several editors for final revision. ares Speeches and Investments. “So,” said the old gentleman, “you think cf becoming a politician?” “Yes, father; I have ambitions in that direction.” *‘Well, you will of course be more or less of an orator, and IJ want to impress on your mind one admonition. Be brief. Remember that a speech is not like an investment. You cannot increase the interest by waiting.” ch A AR THE PAST guarantees the future. It is not what we say, but what Hood's Sarsaperilla does, that tells the story. Remember HOOD’S CURES The most palatable preparation of Cod Liver Oil in the world is Miller’s E.nal- sion, and is now being taken by invalids with astonishing success.
