SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1909. Old Scottish Words. A correspondent of the Glasgow Herald submits the following samples jf old Scotch words from East Aber deenshire: Mowse To sriy anything Is line mowse means it is uncanny or dan gerous. Couuacbed Spoiled. Clean counached would mean utterly destroy ed or rendered useless. Bluud To bluud anything would mean to soil It. A child would be told, "lilnnn bluud your clean pitta." Uardles or gtturdies A child's forearm. The last Is a very old expression, but I have beard it used. "Sic bonnle gardies be has" means the bnby bus plump arms. Evolution of Advertisement. The word "advertisement," which meant special notice, was not used Id our modern sense until about 10C0. The term adopted was "advice." The fees were distinctly heavy, and a curi ous fact is that It does not seem to hare occurred to the promoters to charge for space or the number of words. Important "advices" or those by important people seem simply to hiire been put In capital letters and allowed more space without regard to price. From "A History of Eng lish Journalism," by J. B. Williams. Origin of Pajamas. Jnjamas are being Interpreted sim ply "log gurtnents." They were eager ly adopted by Europeans Id India from the Mohammedans, probably by the Portuguese lu the first place. Earlier Anglo-Indian generations knew them as "long drawers" or "mosquito draw ers" and still earlier generations as "mogul breeches," under which name they are referred to by Reautnont and Fletcher. European improvers were at one time lu the habit of adding feet to these leg garments, but a certain London tradesman was not at a loss to find an outlandish reason for this addi tion. 'I believe, sir. It Is on account of the white ants," be replied to an In quiring customer. London Graphic. C.org. Meradith. It was not until (Jeorge Meredith was an old man tbat he began to reap any reward from his books. Be was at least sixty years old, If not more, before be was able to leave the offices of Chupman & Uall, the publishers, where he acted as reader. A friend of his speaks of this as one of the trag edies of misdirected work and recalls tbo fact that only 2 per cent of all manuscripts submitted to the average' publishing bouse are fit for publica tion. In addition to bis other troubles, Meredith's legs were paralyzed, but In spite of all be wus optimistic. "Some men go first lu their beads," he said, "but 1 go first in my lees." Exchange. Notn th. Map. "Say," queried the would be bo morlst, "where Is that place Atoms, that so ninny people are blown to?" "It's Just the other side of Effigy, the place In which so many people are hanged," answered the solemn person. Chicago News. A T The Brave and Daring French man Pilatre de Rozier. TRAGIC END OF HIS CAREER. He Was the Firat Aeronaut to Lota Hia Lif. From a Balloon, and Ha Was Dashed to Death With a Com panion From a H.ight of 1,700 Ft. Jean Francois Pilatre de' Rozier, who was born at Metz In 1750 aud who was killed, a martyr to bis zeal, by a fall from bis balloon at Boulogne, France, June 10, 1795, was the first aeronaut to lose his life In the daugerous work of mastering the air. Pilatre de Itozier, who had made ascents In the Montgalfier balloon, de termined to solve the question of bal loons as mediums for carrying passen gers and could think aud dream of nothing but how he could fashion a machine tbat would carry him on an aerial voyage. When bis balloon was finished he mnde some twenty-three it see tits, nearly always alone, but occa sionally accompanied by the Marquis U'Arlandes, a brave soldier and one who bad faith In Pllatre's Ideas. The balloon was always held captive by strong cords. Whenever he went up there was a crowd to watch him. One day there was a thrilling moment. The balloon drifted toward some high trees, and It seemed Inevitable that the tissues would be torn by the branches and Pilatre dashed to the ground. They saw the young man calmly throw a bunch of straw ou bis fire aud quickly pour over It two small bottles of oil. Instantly the fierce beat sent the bal loon up safely, and it swept beyond the danger line of the trees. A mighty shout went up from the crowd, and when be came down Pilatre had an ovation. . . Be now felt ready to make his grand experimental trial trip, but the king would not allow him to go, as be feared to lose so brave and scientific a man. Pilatre was In despair, and at length tbe king sold that he would give him the opportunity to test tbe safety of his balloon In tbe following way: lie would give full pardon to any two criminals who were willing to go up in It, provided Pilatre did not him self go. Tbe scientist was very angry. He said: "AY hat'. Shall vile criminals, foul murderers, men rejected from tbe bos om of society, have the glory of being the first to navigate tbe air? Never while Pilatre de Rozier draws breath!" After repeated prayers for permis sion to make bis experiment he ap pealed to the Influence of the Duchess de Pollgnac, tbe governess of tbe royal children. To her petitions the Mar quis d'Arlundea added bis nnd asked to be allowed to accompany Pilatre. At length consent was obtained. On Nov. 21, 17S3, Pilatre and tbe marquis mode an ascent from tbe gar dens of tbe Chateau de la Muette. In the Bols. They sailed safely across tbe Seine, over tbe Hospital For Old Sol diers, over tbe Military school and landed about five miles from Paris. Their return was greeted with wild enthusiasm. Tbe marquis rode back, but Pilatre had to go first to his house and get a coat, for some one bad stolen bis In tbe mlxup of their coming down, when the balloon, of course, collapsed. Pilatre now announced that be would cross tbe channel from Boulogne to England. A wealthy Frenchman ad vanced tbe money to construct an Im proved machine that he was certain could stay In tbe air as long as neces sary. This new Invention was a bal loon filled with hydrogen gas. Upder It was a cylinder by which be expected to rarefy the air contained In It so that he could either ascend or descend eas ily and so reach currents of nlr tbat would take him In any desired direc tion. It was five months before there came a day suitable for making tbe aerial trip. A physician who loved adventure and believed lu the success of the ex periment went with him from Bou logne. They cut the cords that held tbe bal loon at T o'clock lu tbe morning. Tbe ascent was majestic, and when at a height of 200 feet the balloon swept Into n current of air that took it to. ward the channel. Suddenly a cross current swept It Itack. Pilatre hastened to )ct some cold air Into tbe cylinder nnd In some way made a rent In tbe balloon. They were 1,700 feet high, and Instantly they were dashed to (he earth, mangled and crushed frlghtrnlly. France still remembers his enthusi astic faith In bis scientific efforts, and In many places are memorials and In scriptions that perpetuate bis fame. Boston Globe. The Dantal Ornamtnta.

Tbe bead of tbe bouse bad tele phoned tbat he would bring home a guest to luncheon and a guest whom his wife realized that be would delight to honor. Preparations were made ac cordingly, with results satisfactory to her hospitable and housewifely heart. Unfortunately six-year-old Dorothy came in a trifle late. Sweeping the ta ble with one all embracing glance, "Hum!" she queried audibly as she c limbed luto her chair. "Is this luuchV" "Why. of course It's luncheon, Doro thy." her mother hastily intervened, with a repressive gesture. . But Dorothy was not to be stayed. Well." she returned Incredulously, 'maybe It Is. but It looks exactly like Juuday dinner!" ' A Kick For Consistency. Tbe commuter with a grievance open ed the door of the general passenger agent's department, pushed aside the boy at the railing aud stalked up to the chief clerk's desk and relieved him self as follows: "Maybe 1 have no kick coming when I go to the station on time every morn ing for six weeks to catch tbe 8:08 train, only to find it from Ave to ten minutes late maybe I haven't, 1 say. But wbeu 1 get there two minutes late on the first morning of the seventh week, only to see the rear end of the train disappearing cityward, then, by thunder. 1 have n large sized V.lck com ing, and I'm here to register It'."
