The young lawyer has good taste in antiques and has doue auch browsing about in search of them. He. knows the places in Worcestey-and the neighboring towns where<, se who like old furniture and have f\ money ‘to pay for it may find what ‘will delight their souls. So it was no more than natural, when the professor sold his desk, which -was of ancient design, -but of doubtful age, and began looking for something better, that be should consult the young lawyer.The mean of law was delightfully sympathetic. “1 saw just what you want the other day,” he-said. “but I'm afraid it’s gone now. I'll keep my ere out for the next few days.” “Well, if you see anything really good,” said the professor, “buy it and hold it for me. It is not safe to let a bargain go too long. Only: let me ‘know a8 goon as you can, so that l won’t be buying one too. It would be a great favor.” : “Not at all,” said the lawyer. “It’s a pleasure to buy a good thing, even if you are not to keep it yourself.” In a day or two the professor received a joyful note. The young lawyer's mother had found just what the professor wapnted—a beauty, one of those rare old bits that they cannot counter. feit, and such a bargain, only $10. The professor was charmed. He immediately sent his check to the young lawyer with an enthusiastic note of thanks and a request to send up the desk. He was in the hall when it arrived. He tore off the sacking and inspected his prize. It was his old desk that he had sold a few days before for $8.50.— Worcester Gazette. Odd Tendencies of Slang. 2 A writer In the Journal des Debats complains ofthe process. of degradation which is going on in the French language. The peasantry, for instance, partner in their daily toil, as “the minister,’ and other words of dignified import are applied to equally humble, if not actually base, uses. The same tendency, however, appears, to be showing itself in Germany, where the title “‘monarch” passes current in modern slang. as a designation for tramps and footpads. The other day a noncommissioned offiéer in charge of barracks at Danzig addressed this term toa troublesome private just as a captain happened to be passing. The latter at once reported the incident, and the. barrack master was brought before tha magistrates on a charge of “leze majesty.” Evidence was adduced to prove that In east Prnasia “rascal” and “manarch” were convertible terms, so that the court acquitted the prisoner, although he loses his rank and his pension.

The young lawyer has good taste in antiques and has doue auch browsing about in search of them. He. knows the places in Worcestey-and the neighboring towns where<, se who like old furniture and have f\ money ‘to pay for it may find what ‘will delight their souls. So it was no more than natural, when the professor sold his desk, which -was of ancient design, -but of

doubtful age, and began looking for something better, that be should consult the young lawyer.The mean of law was delightfully sympathetic. “1 saw just what you want the other day,” he-said. “but I'm afraid it’s gone now. I'll keep my ere out for the next few days.” “Well, if you see anything really good,” said the professor, “buy it and hold it for me. It is not safe to let a bargain go too long. Only: let me ‘know a8 goon as you can, so that l won’t be buying one too. It would be a great favor.” : “Not at all,” said the lawyer. “It’s a pleasure to buy a good thing, even if you are not to keep it yourself.” In a day or two the professor received a joyful note. The young lawyer's mother had found just what the professor wapnted—a beauty, one of those rare old bits that they cannot counter. feit, and such a bargain, only $10. The professor was charmed. He immediately sent his check to the young lawyer with an enthusiastic note of thanks and a request to send up the desk. He was in the hall when it arrived. He tore off the sacking and inspected his prize. It was his old desk that he had sold a few days before for $8.50.— Worcester Gazette. Odd Tendencies of Slang. 2 A writer In the Journal des Debats complains ofthe process. of degradation which is going on in the French language. The peasantry, for instance, partner in their daily toil, as “the minister,’ and other words of dignified import are applied to equally humble, if not actually base, uses. The same tendency, however, appears, to be showing itself in Germany, where the title “‘monarch” passes current in modern slang. as a designation for tramps and footpads. The other day a noncommissioned offiéer in charge of barracks at Danzig addressed this term toa troublesome private just as a captain happened to be passing. The latter at once reported the incident, and the. barrack master was brought before tha magistrates on a charge of “leze majesty.” Evidence was adduced to prove that In east Prnasia “rascal” and “manarch” were convertible terms, so that the court acquitted the prisoner, although he loses his rank and his pension.
