Two well known military terms, "sentinel" and "hussar," afford capita! instances of the remarkable manner in which a nation does its Word twisting. At first night, there seems little conuet tion between the Latin word sentlna, signifying the hold of a ship, and a soldier keeping watch over his sleeping comrades. The connecting link is afforded l>y the word sentinator, the Roman who pumped the hold of Cesar's galleys free of bilge water. Upon bis constant vigilance depended the lives of the entire ship's company. Similarly the word "hussar" is merely a Hungarian term signifying "twentl' tli." It arose in this manner: When Matthias < or v In its becuiue king of Hungary in 1458 ho was extremely afraid of foreign Invasion, lie consequently raised an army by the simple expedient of commandeering every twentieth individual in the laud; hence the liustittr.

Hut when shown to have been mistaken I own myself in error. Vet, it' i am mistaken, it. is not the error of him who mistakes me? Hut it may be that I am right and that he is mistaken, though 1 suppose that 1 ought to take him aright and not mistake him. Nevertheless I often have to say in argument: "You were quite right. 1 was mistaken." In a word, though he who mistakes must be in error, our common use of language considers him who is mistaken to be so. Notes and Queries. Mlatntio. Mlntakcn.

I IN SU ITS, OVERCOATS Fuiuitlcnl Morocco. Morocco, in spite of its close proximity to Europe, is the most fanatical of the Mohammedan countries. Christians are hated by the natives throughout the couutry, and it is often very dangerous to go outside the town of Tangier. The business of Morocco is entirely in the hands of the Moorish Jews, who amass considerable wealth in the coast ports. It is not prudent for a Christian to stay anywhere but in the Jewish quarter. At the capital, Morocco City, and Fez the natives expectorate and hurl stones at the "foreign infidels," as they call them, and no Christian is safe in the streets unless escorted by soldiers.

The Pullman porter has long since demonstrated his usefulness. The Pennsylvania Railroad train porter serves the ordinary coach passenger in the same capacity as the Pullman porter serves those who ride in parlor and sleeping cars. The day coaches on the above-mentioned trains, as well as those on trains leaving New York at 5.55 p. m. daily for the West, and leaving Pittsburg at 7.10 p. m. daily for the East, are equipped with lavatories, in connection with which the services of train porters are especially convenient. A popular feature of the through trains of the Pennsylvania Railroad which leave New York daily for the West at 7.65 a. m. and 1.55 p. m., and and leave Pittsburg daily for the East at .".00 a. in. ana 7..'SO a. m., are the train porters stationed in the day coaches.Besides his many other claims to distinction the "good red grouse" has one which is often forgotten. lie is the one vertebrate creature peculiar to the British isles. All the rest of our fauna is duplicated elsewhere, and even his cousin, the black cock, has foreign relations, but the true grouse exists nowhere In the world except within the United Kingdom, and considering what a noble game bird he is, how hardy and plucky and how magnificent in his flight, the fact is really something to be proud of.—London Globe.
