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

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.
