The study of etymology causes no
end of trouble among that class of
school children whose knowledge of
Zoglish is limited to words which
Ogure in ordinary street conversa-
tion, and many curious results have
followed. The custom usually ob-
served by the teachers is to require
first a definition of the word, then its
derivation and finally a sentence in
which the word is properly used.
The word ~~ligament��"� feil to the lot
of a rather diffident boy recently in
, the Camac grammar school, at Thir-
teenth and Norris streets. He de-
fined it properly as ~~a band,� but
~followed up the correct derivation
with the remarkable seatence:

The Origin of Champagne.
This was the origin of ~~tizz.� The
pioneer maker of champagne was a
monk, Don Perignon, cellarer at the
Abbey of Hautvillers, near Epernay,
who, about the year 1670, began to
make experiments in bottling the
wine of the district while in its sec-
ond state of fermentation. He soon
fourd that the corks made of greased
hemp, which were then in geveral
use, were ill suited to his purpose,
and he substituted the bark of that
species of ouk now known as the
cork tree in Enyland and the chene-
lieve in France. By tving his corks
down he succeeded in imprisoning
the carbonic acid gas which is the
cause of effervescence, except when
it was strong enough to burst the
bottle. Subsequently M. Francois
discovered a means of ascertuining
the exact quantity of sugar to se-
cure sufficient fermentation of the
wine in bottle to render it sparkling
and not so much as to burst the bot-
tles.
Managing a Servant
One of the most intrepid women,
speaking on the servant question,
said, with entire gravity:
~*T have a fixed method of reprov-
ing or dismissing my servants and
I never vary from it. I am careful
not to seek them in their domain, as
they can there rattle disoes while I
talk. I always send for the offender
to come to me in, say, a quarter of
an hour"thbat gives them time to
lose their nerve and wohder what I
want. Then I always contrive to be
writing at my desk as they entermy
room and I keep them standing
waiting while I finish my page. This
is wholesome also. By the time I
am ready I find my servant quite
subdued. All this sounds trifling
and it takes time but it saves
friction in the end.� " HarperTs

RUINED BY PIE.
The Peculiar Appetite of a New York
State Man.
A most singular case is now in the
courts at Kingston in this state,
says the Buffalo Courier. A young
man living there was lately found to
be a forger, and when he confessed
he said he was driven to the crime
by an ungovernable gluttony for
mince pie. Tosatisfy his craving he
~ad forwed the signature of a wealthy
man to a note for one thousand
dollars and had got the paper dis-
counted. With the proceeds he
went on @ mince-pie spree, and had
devoured sixty dollarsT worth of this
pastry before he was arrested.
According to his story his ex-
traordinary liking for mince pie be-
gan to show itself when he was a boy.
He seemed even then to feel that
there was something abnormal! in his
appetite, for he went voluntarily to
Bloomingdale asylum in the hope of
being cured of his gluttony. After
he came out he believed he was
cured and began to study for the
ministry. Butina fatal hour, about
two years later, the mania for pie
came upon him with irresistible
power. He broke into the house-
keeperTs closet in the Auburn Theo-
logical seminary, where he was &
student, and gorged himself with
mince pie. His relapse so preyed
upon him that he went to the faculty,
and they udvised him, he says, to
drop his studies, as it would be det-
rimental tothe ministerial calling
for him to enter it with such a fatal
appetite for mince pie. He would
ibe likely to suffer a seizure of his
mania ata supper in the church
parlors or at the table of one of his
flock, and create an unforgettable
scandal. He took the advice of the
~faculty and went to peddling clothes
wringers and bed springs, but his
malady was now so deep seated that
he subordinated everything to his
| craving. He developed an unusual
| cupping in stealing mince pie, or in
getting the money with which to
purchase it. ~~I would be tempted,�
said he, ~~and fall; go to a restaurant
\and eat a pie and a half or two pies.
1 became as helpless a victim of the
mince-pie habit as the drunkard is
of the drink habit.
have pawned my overcoat or my
watch when 1 have seen an uncom:
monly luscious pie in a window and
not had enough ready money to buy
it.�T
Then came the forging of the note
and the piergy which ended in his
arrest. After hearing his story 4
commission was appointed to inquire
into his sanity, and it is likely that,
instead of being sent to a peniten-
tiary, he will be placed in a lunatic
asylum. He is described as a thin,
~| nervous-looking man with a wild
expression, which is disappointing,
for many aman of New Engiand
ancestry would be glad to cultivate
this lunacy, if it would not spoil his
complexion and keep him awake
~ nights.
