“FREEZE” AND “BURN,”
—----------
Thea« Two Words Had a Comma-n
Parent In One Aryan Root
We lire likely to consider "ireeze”
and "burn" as two disiim'tly opposite
effects, but If. for a simple ex|s-ri:ueiit,

It is doubtful if our Aryan ancestors
when they were planting the seed of
the English iiik I its sister languages
thought of the scientific relations of
what we call bent and cold, but they
gave to IW the root "prus." which they
got out of the seiisntions protluced by

and "frost." Again, us is usual, our

A Sight That Checked Her Royal Ex
travagance For Awhile.
We are accustomed to think that the
day Is long past when a sovereign
could oppress and offend a whole king
dom by personal extravagance.
But
the Inte Isabella of Spain belonged in
spirit to the sixteenth century. An In
cident of her reckless career—which
ended In Hie loss of the throne—is not
ed In Munsey's Magazine.
She spent money, pouring It out like
water, at a time when the treasury
was nearly bankrupt and when the
proverb “Poor as a Spaniard” was
far too true. All her best advisers
urged her to practice economy. Very
few of them succe«*ded. and these only
for a short time.
A certain chamberlain of hers once
hit upon a plan to make her realize
how enormous were the sums that she
was spending. Passing through the
hall of the palace, she was surprised
to see a vast heap of silver pieces, re
sembllng the contents of a great bin
of wheat, but plied up In the middle
of the floor. The queen lummourd her
chamberlain.
"What Is the meaning of all this
money?” she detnauded of him.
“Oh," he replied, with a low bow,
"this is merely the amount which 1
have brought out to pay the bill of
your majesty's glovemaker.''
The queen colored and then laughed,
and for several months she was lesa
extravagant In her expenditures for
clothes.
