Hot. tired and dusty, the excursion was returning* from the seaside day trip, and Simkins, a little bald man with big ears, overcome with his day of happiness, dropped off to sleep. In the hatrack above another passenger bud deposited a ferocious crab in a bucket, and when Simkina went to sleep tbe crab woke up and. finding things dull in the bucket, started ex ploring.

Certain adjectives are reserved for men and others for women. A man la I never called "beautiful." Along with "pretty" and "lovely" that adjective has become tLe property of women and children alone. "Handsome” and the weak "good looking" ure tbe only two adjectives of the kind common to ei ther sex. Even "belle” has no real mascullue correlative in English, since "beau” came to signify sotnething oth er than personal looks. It is singular that "handsome” should have become tbe word for a strikingly good looking person, since its literal meaning is bandy, dexterous. But "pretty” like wise comes from the Anglo-Saxon v otd meaning “sly.” erything U nice and quiet otherwise.” » 314,903.7« «0,584.8« . 20,1 «0.5 244,091.93 LiAH.-Lirin, Pay of Army Officers.
