TO FADE AWAY.
An Expression That It Not Slung In
Prt of England.
Dtd you ever urge upon some Inter
loper the advisability of "fading n way"
when you did not wish to employ tliu
brutal frankness that would have or
dered him to get out? And do you
til In 1; the expression originated with
"The Chorus Lady?" Whether or not
you saw thnt once popular play, you
could not have escaped tho expression,
blazoned on thousands of billboards:
"Fade away! Fade away, quick!" She
did not . mean thnt she wanted the
man's ruddy cheeks to grow palojior
that lie should undergo, any other
change implied in the moaning of the
word "fade." She wanted him to van
ish, to betake himself to some other
place without argument or ceremony.
To use the exi'ressionslic used Is merely
American slang, only a little more com
prehensive and rational than "skiddoo"
or "vamoose," which had hitherto been
employed to convey the same meaning.
Around Cornwall, In England, they
would take the word "fade" In the sense
of "depart" as not at all out of the ordi
nary. To "fade" means to grow pTHe
or weak, but In Cornwall it also menus
"to go." Just how It happens to have
that meaning the philologists do not
agree. It is spelled both "fade" and
Vvade," nnd the plausible suggestion
liny been offered that the word comes
from tho Latin, the expression "vade
mecum," meaning "go with me," having
been In common use In the days when
a prayer book or a talisman that was
supposed to go along wllh tho Individ
ual to bring good luck was thus In
scribed. The fade dance, In which tho
dancers go from house to house, has
been popular lit that corner' of Kngland
for sis: centuries. St. Louis Globe
Democrat. PREVENTION OF SICKNESS.
It Would Prove a Most Effective Blow
Against Poverty.
That sickness is the llrst step leading
to dependency and tho primary cause
of poverty is shown by an Investiga
tion conducted by the Russell Sage
foundation In New York city. This In
vestigation was niaclo omong wage
earners and charity organizations with
a view to knowing how frequently Is
sickness encountered as n factor in de
pendency. It was found thnt over 313
per cent of those In need of aid had
been brought to this position through
sickness or the responsibility for sick
ness. Another important fact revealed
was that most of the cases studied be
longed to the lower branches of labor
and that they were hero for the rea
son that either physical or mental do
lerloriulou had followed past Illnesses.
Iu other words, sickness was found to
be a factor producing a low grade of
labor as well as de;endoncy.
Of the 087 cases of sickness studied
two-thirds were found ut the time of
the Investigation to have been sick
more than half u year, nnd tho physi
cian estimated that 205 cases were
chronic, while eighty-one were likely
to become progressively worse.
That the prevention of sickness Is tho
most effective blow against poverty
and dependency was the recommenda
tion made by the committee making
the Investigation. Some of the needs
to tills eud were pointed out, as more
prompt medical attention, education in
hygiene and sanitation, opportunity for
periodical medical examinations to pre
vent sickness and better health condi
tions both In homes and places of em
ployment. Queer Coronation Gifts.
One of the most extraordinary gifts
made on the coronation day of Edward
I. jves that of 500 horses which had
been used by the royal princes and
other personuges In the procession to
Westminster abbey. These horses, all
richly caparisoned and harnessed Just
bs they were, were, let loose Into tho
very midst of the mob nfler the ban
quet In Westminster hall that always
succeeded a coronation lu those days.
The peoplo In tho streets were permit
ted to catch the animals, and to him
who caugnt a horse It and Its appoint
ments belonged. London Gl .be.
