While on a visit to Glasgow recently, I was witness to rather au amusing him - dent at Ellington street station.

"Just six, and they're twins." "Ay I an' whaur were they born 7" "This sue was born in the Gallygate (Gallowgate), an' the ither in Edin- burgh," replied the mother, unthinking. ly. CURIOUS WORD STUDIES. Baron once meant only a strong man. Parlor was originally the talking plane. Gauze was first manufaotm•ed at Gaza. A chancellor was once only a door- keeper. Despot originally signified "master of the house." To provide was once simply to "look ahead." Remorse originally meant simply "to bite again." Paper oomes from the name of an Egyptian reed. The word chestnut came originally from Caetanea. The magnet is so called from the min- eral magnesia. The word nice originally meaub ignor- ant or foolish. A maneuver was once e, dexterous piece of handwork, Scamper originally signified 00137 "to go out of a field." To insult once signified to jump or dance on a dead body. The word mob is from a Latin word signifying movable. Manumit formerly meant to "tend away from the hand." Dimity, apopular dress material, was Bratmade at Damietta. To encroach once signified to put a hook into and pull away. The dandelion was mice wiltten dent - de -lion, the lion's tooth. Leaf recalls the palm leaves formerly used in the Eaet as paper. Cemetery is from a Latin word, eigni- fying "a Bleeping chamber." To speculate, in its original sense, was to look out of the window. Husband was originally the houeeband, or bond of anion of the house. The word abandon originally signified "to run away from your colors." The demand for Ayer'e Hair vigor in such widelyeoparated regions as South America, Spain, Australia, and India has kept pace with the home oonsump^ tion, which goes to ehosv that these people know a good thing when they try it.
