Bell Phone, Main 732 sa Bi't, Then, One Has Twenty Fingers t Make Up the Loss, Fingers of the Hand and Fingers of tho Foot OddN tiea of the Verb "to Walk." The Englishman' or American la Portugal who thinks In his own lan guage and tries to speak in the lan guage of the country lie Is visiting Li a great smile producer. For instance, you never marry any body iu Portugal unless strange para , dox you happen to le a priest. You marry "lth" your beloved Maria, and the, priest marries you both. Ia. the same way you never dream about any body, but always "with" them. . When the landlady at your boarding bouse . Is ladling out your soup you call out, "Arrive." You are telllug her to arrive at the stopping point la other words, that you don't want more than she has put out. When you see a child that you want to fondle at the other side of the rawm you say to her, Arrive Here." And tde child prompt ly "arrives." v.; In England when we speak of walk ing we refer to a certain use of the legs. But ' the Portuguese verb "to walk" has many more significations. In Portugal not only do the people walk, but also the carts and cars walk, the trains walk, a balloon walks, and boat walks. Stranger still, the hands of a clock walk round the facet A clock, by the way, never goes; It "works." . Unless you are very intimate or very rude you never say to your fair part ner at dinner, "Will you have' Bom bread?" te.' You Inquire, "Will your excellency have some bread?" or, "Will the lady have some bread?" the "lady" meaning not some other lady, but your fair partner herself. ( In spite of winter yon are never cold In Portugal unless you are a corpse. You are "with", cold. In the same way you are occasionally "with" heat. "with" headache, ' "with" hunger or "with" thirst. When you have occa sion to discuss the weather you say, "It 'makes' cold," 'It .'makes' fog," etc. On your way home from an en tertainmeut you tell your companion that it "makes" dark. If speaking of her husband a wife says he Is a "tame" man. She merely means that he Is a man of ycace and Justice. The word "house" means more than with 'us.' Your buttons share your own privilege of living in jft house. The buttonholes are called "houses of the buttons." The squares on a chess board are also "houses." You don't say,a"I'm going to shave." You say, "I'm going to Mo' the beard." " Neither do you say on the way to the bar ber's, "I'm going to get my hair cut," but you soy, "I'm going to cut my hair.". : When you ore iu Portugal you have twenty fingers, but no toes.' if you want to make a distinction you say "lingers of the hand" or "fingers of the foot." Instead of telling the servant to set the table yoii toll her to "put" It. When you go to the theater you "assist." You don't menu by that thut you "come on" nor-jpven that you do a little scene shifting. You r.'.esn tmt ywi :ra then. Residents la fl.-.ts who meditate tak ing a holiday In'. Portugal will, be re lieved to hoar tfint no one plays the piano there. Tl:cy merely "touch" it. Neither do ih?y ring foMK They 'touch" them nL:. Rut they "play" stones. ' meaning that they throw them, and a ship at sea "plays" when It pitches and tousea. Be careful how you tell your land lady that you Intend to dine, out or she may think, with n shrug of the shoulders, that you Intend dining "outside" I. e., in the garden. In an swer to the kind Inquiries of your friends don't say that you are well; say that you are "good." Be careful In your. use of words. Some words similar in form are widely different In meaning, as an American missionary once discovered to : his ; cost when preaching in Brazil, once a Portuguese colony. His subject was "The Prodi gal Son," and he gravely Informed his hearers that when the young man re turned home bis father killed for him ' the fatted beetle! But be had merely made a mistake In one solitary vowel A "sleeping" bridge means a bridge that Is Immovable (not a drawbridge).. Stagnant water also "sleeps." So do trucks or trains that wait anywhere during the night When they laugh in Portugal they "untie themselves to laugh," and when they cry they "un make themselves In tears." A persist ently unfortnnntc man says, "I am so unlucky that If I fell on my back I should break tny nose!" London An swers. ' . . Take LiXATTVn BUOMO putnine tablets.
