It is generally thought that the eaymz
mia oaiy peopie ia jncw York worth
knowing can be numbered by 400 was
vngmarea oy ward idcAnieter, but it
can be found u the Bible, Atts v, 86
which rpeaks of Theudas boasting him
self to be somebody, to whom a number
of man. about 400, joined themselves,
who were scattered and brought to
naught. The verse referred to reads as
follows, "For before these davs rose up
Theaidas, boasting himself to" be some
body, to whom a number of men, about
400, joined themselves, who were slain
and all, as many as obeyed him, were
scattered and brought to nought."
Another verse worth mentioning ia
this connection is from I Samuel xxil, 2
"Ad everyone that waa in distress, and
everyone that was in debt, and every
cne i that was discontented, gathered
themselves unto him. and he bscam a
a captain cvrr them, and thero were
with him about 400 men." Kerstone.

Tho AbbreTiatloa of Zoolos-lr.!.
The tendency among Engh'sh people to
iuuS iru3 iziio snort ones, or even
into monosyllables, is notorious. Thus
"cabriolet" has becorao cab, "omnibus"
bus and so on. But the chansre of "zoo
logical" into roo is, to any ono who knows
the origin of the word, the most exas
perating of all, and yet we now meet
with "-oo" in well written journals, and
I see the word is being advertised as the
title of a book.
There is another variation, which comes
simply from bad pronudation, as when
a cockney holiday maker telle you he
has been to the "alogical." If "zoolog
ical" is to undergo a shortening, like that
which has befallen "omnibus" end "cab
riolet," let it at least become to. This
would be correct as far aa it went and
would not be so excruciating as tho de
testable too. Cor. Notes and Queries.

vice could be put in three words
I don't do it. Possibly there might
come an occasion say, once in a
lifetime when a good round bit

strong English to give express
ion to wit, drollery, indignation
or sympathy, without recourse to
the phrases which belong to borse-
jockeys, gamblers, tipplers, and
vagabonds. The street Arab
picks up slang, aa he does the

speech and manner. Why should
she use vulgar words any -more
than ebe would stain her hands?
