The most hybrid word In the English language, according to Professor A. F. Chamberlain of Clarke university, writing In tho Popular Bcleuce Month ly, Is "ifiuncadiiinlzlng." Professor Clarke points out tbnt this word Is de rived from five languages Latin, Gae lic, Hebrew, Greek and English. He resolves It Into its factors as follows. First. Re. a Latin prefix, signifying a repetition or doing over again. : Second. Mac, a Gaelic word for son. In common use as a prefix for genea logical purposes. Third. Adam, the representative In many European languages of tbe He brew name of the first man, according to the Mosaic account of tbe creation as given In the book of Genesis. Fourth. Iz (or Ize). the modern Eng Itoh representative, through the French, Igor of the Greek verbal terminal lzeln. Fifth. Ing, the English suffix ot the participle present, verbal noun, etc. The root of this word, "macadam," Illustrates In another way the vitality of our English speech and Its ability to draw new words Into Its vocabulary whenever tbe need arises. - Tho term "macadam". Is really the family' name of the, man,, John Macadam, who In 1810 devised the now common method of paving roads with small broken stones, etc. Celtic and Semitic bad al ready combined to produce macadam, meaning "son of Adam," which tbe English language then took up and farther molded to suit Its genius. There are many anch hybrids, but this Is probably the worst. ... NOT A FAMILY QUARREL. It Wat Simply a Claver Ruas of a Dar ing Pariaian Thief. . A traveler remarks that the Parisian swindler Is tbe subtlest and the most Indomitable one in the world. He was one day strolling through a fashionable French shop. A woman entered and proceeded to purchase n costly set of silver dishes, and meanwhile a well dressed man lin gered at tho doorway as though wait ing for her. The woman, her purchase concluded, counted a number of bank notes and advanced to tbe cashier's desk holding thorn In her hand. T.u'n of a sudden tho man rushed upon her. "Yon wretch!" he exclaimed. "Didn't I tell you that you shouldn't have those dishes?" And he slapped her upon tbe cheek, tore the b:ink notes from her band and, stalked Indignantly out of the shop. The woman fainted. It wns ten min utes before slit was brought to, and iihtun while those In the shop, believing' thnt a family quarrel wns lu progress, did nothing. On her recovery the niun nger of the place said regretfully: "We :ire sorry, inndiim, for this oc currence. Vour husband" "My husband! Thnt was not my bus bund:" tho woman cried. "He Is a thief:" She had never soeu the man before. Exehuuge. Violet For Mourning. It was not by accident that violet was chosen by many nations ns.the ex clusive color for mourning and by us also for half mourning. Painters suf fering from hysteriu and neurasthenia will be Inclined to cover their pictures uniformly with the color most in ac cordance with their condition of lassi tude and exhaustion. Thus orlglnuto tbe violet pictures of Manet and his seliuol, wbicu spring from no nctuully observable, aspect of nature, but from a sul'Jevtlvo view due to conditions of the nerves. When the entire surface of walls lu salons and art exhibitions of tho day appears veiled In uniform half mourning this predilection for vio let Is simply nn expression of tho nerv ous debility of the painter. Nordau's "Degeneration." Dickens' Humanneas. The best pnrt of Charles Dickens, the great novelist, was the hmuanness of hlui, coming out in the tender pathos with which ho streaked the funny side of life. Primarily a humorist, he was, liko many another humorist, a human ist loo. Dlckena came out of that low er London life, one-third grotesque, one third pitiful, one-third heroic, which he pictured lu his writings. Ho hnd lived the struggles of Oliver Twist, of David Coppertleld and of Philip in "Grout Ex pectations." Thnt wns the reason why ho wus able to lay hold of people'!, hearts when he described those death less persons: New York Mail. Tit For Tat.
