HOW MANY WORDS IN ENGLISH.

As long as gossip was oral it spread,
as regarded any one individual, over a
Tery small area, and was confined to
the immediate circle of his acquaint
ances. I t did not reach, or hut rarely
reached, those who knew nothing of him.
I t did not malffe his nafne, or his walk,
or
his
conversation
fam iliar
to
strangers. And, what is more to the
purpose, it spared him the pain or
mortification of knowing that he was
gossiped about. A man seldom heard
of oral gossip about him which simply
made him ridiculous, or trespassed on
his lawful privacy, but made no positive
attack on his reputation. His peace and
comfort were, therefore, but sligh tly a f
fected by It.
In all this the advent of the newspa
pers, or rather of a particular class of
newspapers, has made a great change.
I t has converted curiosity into what
economists call an effectual demand, and
gossip into a marketable commodity.
T h e old Paul Fry, whom our fathers
despissd and caricatured, and who
was roundly kicked and cuffed on the
•tage for his indiscretions, has become
a great wholesale dealer in an article of
merchandise for which he finds a ready
aale, and by which he frequently makes
a fortune. In other words, gossip about
private individuals is now printed, and
makes its victim, with all bis im per
fections on bis head, known hundreds
or thousands of m iles away from his
plage of abode; and, what is worst of
all, brings to bis knowledge exactly
what is said about him, with all its de
tails. It thus inflicts what is, to many
men, the great pain of believing that
every body he meets in the streets is
perfectly fam iliar with some folly, or
misfortune, or indiscretion, or weak
ness, which ho had previously supposed
Lad never got beyond bis domestic cir
cle.
It is no defense for this state of tilings
to say that the passion for notoriety of
any kind lias been fostered to such an
exten t by this wide diffusion of printed
gossip that there is a large number of
people who do not dislike it, but on the
contrary put themselves in the way of
having their private life explored by
the press. Th ey are a small minority
at best, and their taste must bo recog
nized as a depraved one.—fScribner.

Mr. J. t). Horn, of Leicester, has
added a new game to the already long
list that has been placed before the pub
lic during the last few years. In lawn
crooketta there seems to be the e le
ments of success, as players w ill find
plenty of skill necessary, and also there
is a certain amount of exorcise required.
This, however, is by no means so vio
lent as one sees in a game of lawn ten
nis; so to many this w ill prove a great
attraction.
Th e game can be played on grass or
gravel or, indeed, on any hard sub
stance, while it is not necessary that
the courts should bo always of the same
shape or size; so that in this respect it
w ill suit grounds that m ight not always
be available should the same-sized
court be a sine qua non. Tho im ple
ments required for tho game aro not
many, being four crooks, four stand
ards, a not and nix balls. Tho crooks
sro throe foot six inches long, having
tho appearance of a lawn-tennis racket,
vory loosely strung; indeed, tho baggy
part of tho racket is nearly throe incites
deep. T h o standards, three foot six
with cupped tops, aro placed so as to
form a six-foot square, tho not, two foot
eigh t inches high. Inclosing litis space.
Tho balls In uso for tho game aro four
and one-half inches in dlamoter, four,
called sentinels, to ho placed in tho
cups on tho standards, and tho remain
ing two being the play halls. Theserv-
loo linos aro thirty foot long, and are
placed tw elve foot away from oaoh side
of tho lnsido square, called tho fold;
and then tho court Is made complete by
Joining tho fold corners to tho aorvico-
ltno corners.
T w o or four players can take part In
lawn crooketta, the greater number ap
pearing to us to enhanco tho interest
shown In the game. T h e principal part
of the play consists in placing olio of
tho halls in th*, crook, a n d then, stand
ing outside tile s e r v ic e lino, N ervin g tho
hall so that it shall pass over the fold
and fall In your opponent's court with
out his catching it, or you may displace
ono of the sentinels on the standards,
but taking care that your hull shall still
drop in the adversary's court,
Tho game is scored by jioi nts; ono,
two, three or four, called a knave,
queen, king and an are, respectively,
can bo made from each service, while
llfty or one hundred points constitute a
game, according to whether a long or
short game is required, lioforo trying
the game ourselves wo had seen it well
played by some of tho team of lady
cricketers, who aro now showing such
great form with the hat and ill the Hold.

C o m p a ris o n o f D ic tio n a rie s ,
A n interesting question suggested by
an ancient w aif of a hook is too number
of English words now existing. Con
siderable difference of opinion exists on
this point. Mr. George P. Marsh, an
American author of repute, in his “ Leo-
1 tures on tho English Language,” esti
mates that the number (in lHtil) “ prob
ably dotst not fall short o f 100,000;" and
large additions, esiiecially in art and sci
ence, have come into use since that date.
Other writers, however, come to a differ
ent conclusion, and think that 40,000
would include the whole. It depends a
good deal on how calculations are made.
If all the subsidiary words—participles
and the like—are to be taken into ac
count, it w ill swell the sum total very
considerably.
Taking the first three words that oc
cur ut random, wo find that from “ dem
onstrate," in one of our m odem ilietion-
aries, there aro thirteen derivatives;
, from the word “ bright ” there are
twelve, and from “ deplore" there are
ten. There is also redundance in other
forms. In one of Todd's editions o f Dr.
Johnson there aro upward of eighty
words with the prefix “ a ll"—all-comply
ing, all-divining, all-drowsy, and so on
—« very notable instance o f dictionary
padding. In ways like these the vocab
ulary may be indefinitely increased.
Probably if wo take leading words and
all their derivatives, the number at the
present tim e w ill exceed M r. Marsh's es
timate. An approximate verification
of this may lie found by m ultiplying tho
number o f pages in any good modern
dictionary by tho average number of
( words in a page.
Shakespeare's works, it is believed, in
clude about 15,000 separate words, and
Milton's about 0,000; hut from theso fig-
j ures wo have no criterion o f the extent
of the actual English vocabulary. It may
bo mentioned hero that while Cockeram
has only about 7,000 or 8,000 words,
thoro aro in Bailey's Dictionary approx
imately about 1)0,000, and in Johnson’s
not more than that. In some of the
; larger modern works again, the figures,
as has been said, reach to upward of

“ No, I don't think a soldier has any
right to m arry—a privute, anyhow,” said
a ten year man at F ort Hamilton. “ Our
'¡fe and our movements are too uncer-
for one thing, and for another, a
fO—.icr should have uo incumbrances.
Look ut me, for example. Four years
ago I was.transferred from a southern
station to F ort Canby, away out in the
wilds o f California. August, 1889,1 was
again transferred clear across the conti
nent to this station. Now, i f I hail a
family to take with me, I'd be in pretty

Sam keeps us, you know, but he don’t
over indulge us in s e n d in g money, and
when you consider that there's no such
I thing as free transportation for one’s
fam ily or baggage, you may judge how
many months' savings it would take to
carry one through.
“ W hy, the officers themselves are only
allowed from 1,590 to 9,499 pounds bag
gage transportation, according to runk,
und most o f them, you know, are mar
ried. A private is allowed 150 pounds
and what he can carry. This just about
sees a single man through, hut when it
comes to household goods, even for a
small fam ily, the weight is in the thou
sands before you know it. Yes, it's all a
mistake,” he said, in conclusion, “ this

Our preparations are called “ The La Salle
Remedies, from the fact that we procured the
original formula o f the celebrated Dr. La Salle
I of Paris, umier guarantee that should we think
proper to introduce at any time his remedies to
the American public we should do so under tliut
title.
Some years ago Dr. I.a Salle conceived the idea
>i treating nervous and seminal diseases by
rectal medication, believing he would gain thi*
following advantages:
(1.) Application oi the drugs directly to the
seat of the diseases.
(2.) Avoidance o f digestion and neutraliza
tion of the active medical agents, there being no
stomach drugging.
(3.) The patient can cure himself at very lit
tle expense without any physician.
(4.) Their use requires no change of diet or of
the ordinary pursuits o f life.
(o.) They are absolutely harmless,
i
1 lose approach to the lower aperture« of
emergence o f tne spinal nerves from the verte
bral column, and hence ease of penetrating to
the nervous fluid aud matter ot the biain ami
spinal cord.
Feeble men, whose strength Is impaired, w ill
flint a sure and permanent cure in Dr. La Salle's
remedies.

The word JBolus is a Latin name, and means
large pill.
in the preparation o f the La Salle Bolus we-
use the best cocoa butter .'or holding ami pre
serving the various drugs, thus making their in
troduction a very easy matter.
They pass into the rectum w itli the most por
ted ease by means of a little pressure from the
finger.
This method of treatment leaves behind no
traces to excite the curiosity o f any one.

is derived by placing these remedies right at tho
spot where they w ill do the most good. When,
the Bolus is introduced into the rectum it rests
directly at the neck o f tlie bladder.
