THE STANDARD DICTIONARY.
Second Notice of Volume Second.
In a country so varied as our own,
dialectic forms of speech are inevitable.
It is already a problem how to preserve
the unity of the language and how to
resist the tendency, even of educated
persons, to employ one language for
colloquial purposes, and another and
often widely different language for the
purposes of written composition. Again,
the making of new words and phrases
which species of manufacture is pushed
forward, in America, at a pace com
mensurate with our material Indus
triesrequires to be governed by whole
pome principles, lest the purity of the
motheivtongue be sullied by graftings
of rank alienisms, archaisms, obsoletcs,
provincialisms, technicalities and idlot
isms, Finally, we have the importance
of using the good and well-established
words correctly, nnd not loosely, Inapt
ly or in the slipshod fashion which
nurtures bad grammar, bad writing
and general Indifference to pure forms
of speech. The newly completed Stand
ard dictionary sounds, in this direction,
a new note in dictionary-making by de
voting an Interesting appendix to it dis
cussion of the general principles which
determine correctness In English speech
nnd writing, followed by a list of words
und phrases, arranged in alphabetical
order, which are frequently misused by
speakers and writers. We shall confine
the present notice to a brief scrutiny of
this appendix, which offers a fertile
field of instruction to all English-speaking
people.
I.
Itrondly speaking, we decide whether
certain diction or pronunciation be
faulty or not by comparing It with cer
tain standards decreed by the three
sciences of lexicology, grammar and
rhetoric. The first science tells us, nt
once, that the word "cablegram," for
example, Is faulty, in that it combines
elements from two languages, one nine
teenth century French and the other
pre-Christian Creek. The second tells
us, with equal directness, that the par
ticiple "heated" cannot be superseded
by "net;" that "ought not" is correct
while "hadn't ought" is intolerably er
roneous; and that "animalculae" should
Instead be "anlmacutes." Finally, by
means of rhetoric, we learn to choose
our words as the warrior chouses his
weapons, so that we may get the best
results from their use. There is. how
ever, a supreme court before which the
laws of lexicology, grammar and rheto
ric must come for review. This is the
concensus of usage which may and
often dues declare a badly-formed
word good or a faulty locution pardon
ably for special reasons. Even this
high tribunal, however, is In its turn
subject to certain rules and regulations,
which It may not violate. Usage, to be
good, must be (1) national that is, gen
eral among the English-speaking peo
ples or at least among an authoritative
part of them: (2) It must be reputable,
having the sanction of the best authors;
and Cil It must be present, and not
obsolete. Words or phrases which suc
cessfully run these various gauntlets
may be used with confidence, for they
will have become an Integral part of the
pure, English mother-tongue.
.. But how shall we deal with the new
words and meaning, called for con
venience, "neoterisms," that continually
nrljit' in our daily conversation and In
our literature? These children of the
language are in no small measure its
hope and strength; but obviously some
restraints must govern them. It Is
nowadays generally agreed by lexico
graphers that a new word, to be ad
missible Into the language at all, ought
either to supply, as we may say, a long
felt want (as, for example, the new
words "cult," "locomotive," "electro
motor") or else be an Improvement on
a word already existing (as In the case
of "crank." which In a syllable ex
presses what previously would require
sentences of explanation). There are
certain minor restraints upon the frce
rolnage of neoterisms; as, for Instnnce,
that a new word shall obey some an
alogy and that It shall be reasonably
pleasing to the car. But the great rule
la that It shall fill a long-felt want or
savs time. Thus, such neoterisms as
"trust," "combine'," "nihilist," "com
munist" and "plutocrat" are neither
euphonious nor consistent with any law
of analogy, but they supply a distinct
need of the public, and the public there
fore adopts them, whether the purists
like It or not,
II.,
Let us now consider a few of the
words and phrase that we Americans
commonly abuse. How often do we
hear such an expression as "The ser
mon appeared in an abbreviated form.
when the speaker's meaning was that It
appeared In an abridged form? A cr
tain portion of the human anatomy, the
abdomen, which many persons accent
on the first syllable, should Invariably
receive accent on the penult. When one
refers to "the above statement" he Is
Kttllty of making a clumsy adjective
out of an excellent preposition. It Is

"the foregoing" or "the preceding state.
ment." When you "accept of" a gift
you overdo the thing, since the preposl
Hon Is unnecessary. "Acoustics" takes
a Rlngular predicate. Much confusion
commonly arising from the use of ad
jectives and adverbs would be avoided
If the general principle were clearly
fixed in minrl that an adjective Is cor
rectly used In close association with a
verb when some quality of the subject
rather than of the action of the verb Is
to be expressed. In "He feels sad," the
adjective denotes a quality of the sub
Ject. But In "You are looking badly'
the Idea expressed Is in part the man
ner of appearance, as distinguished
from the purely ndjectlval use of the
word "bad," which Implies moral (lore.
notion. The sense, In any case, must
decide when the adjectival and when
the adverbial form is accurate. If all
writers and speakers would pause long
enough to make sure of the sense of
their remarks, errors In diction would
ftoon become fewer than they are.
Only slipshod writers use the word
"uggravute" as synonymous with "pro.
v voke or "exasperate." It means "to
Increase In Intensity or seriousness," and
may not Imply provocation or exasperu
Hon ot all, although It frequently dors
Imply these meanings. The contrac
tion "ain't," always Inelegant. Is often
positively obnoxious; as In "Ho ain't
Koing," for "He Is not" or "Isn't going."
"Ain't"' Is a vulgar contraction of "am
nor or "are not. - wnenaused with a
singular subject in the third person, It
la utterly ungrammatlcal. Another
prevalent Inaccuracy Is the use of the.
words "all of," as In "I saw "all of
Some of the Latest Volumes
To Issue from the Press.
them," to denote totality. The usage
Is widespread, Uut the preposition Is
unnecessary, and should, therefore, for
economy's sake, be dropped. When we
remember the assertion of the French
statistician, printed in this paper one
week ago, that superfluous words and
letters in the French and English lan
guages represent an annual waste of
$:!2,U00,(0(, or more; than enough to give
every head of a Seranton family $1..'00
cash In the bank, the Importance of
checking the prodigal' use of printer's
ink will require no further argument.
A much-abused vocable Is the word
allow." "1 allow to pay It," meaning
"I Intend to pay it," is a manifest vul
garism. "He allowed that we ought
to succeed." meaning "Ho thought we
ought to succeed" is hardly less obnox
ious. "1 will allow that man Is sinful"
Is Incorrect because no man can "al
low" what exists In spile of him. The
proper word, in that ease, is "concede,"
it being a mental yielding. "Allow" Is
often used In the sense of "permit: as, i
they allowed us to use their boat." I
This latter usage has eminent author- i
Ity; but there is a fine shade of differ-
enee between the two meanings. "We
ullow," says the Standard dictionary in
its vocabulary treatment of this sub
ject on page 5(1, "that which we do not
Utempt to hinder; we permit that to
which we give some express authoriza
tion." Also "we allow a child s innocent
Intrusion, we concede a right: grant a
requit; consent to a sale ol proptrty;
permit an inspection ol accounts; sanc
tion a marriage: tolerate me ritiiencss
of a well-meaning solvent; submit to
i surgical operation: yield to a demand
r necessity against our wish or will;
and yield something under compul
sion." Another aid to the correct differ
entiation of the word "allow" from Its
synonyms may be cited in the follow
ing passage from Kichard Grant line
("Words and Their Uses," page 90):
We may allow, or admit, that which
we have disputed, but ot which we may
have been convinced; or, we may allow
certain premises as the basis of argu
ment; but we assert, not allow, our own
opinions."
In similar peril of misuse is the word
allude." Jt means "to refer delicately
r Incidentally to a person, subject or
place." Here, again, we consult, with
profit, the vocabulary treatment of this
word on page To of the Standard dic
tionary and find its meaning Illumined
as follows: "We allude to a matter
slightly, perhaps by a word or phrase,
as it were in byplay: we advert to it
when we turn from our path to treat It;
we refer to It by any clear utterance
that distinctly turns the mind or atten
tion to It; ami we mention a thing by
explicit wind." Thus, "the speaker ad
verted to the recent disturbances; he
alluded to the remissness of certain
public ofllcers; though he mentioned no
name, it was easy to sec to whom he
referred."
III.
The thirty-ninth verse of the first
chapter of the gospel according to St.
John has been criticised by certain stu
dents of our language for its fancied
misuse of the conjunction "and." It is
as follows: "He saith unto them, 'come
and see.' They came and saw where
He dwelt." Yet the same meaning
would not have been conveyed had the
verse read: "He saith unto them,
'Come to see.' They came to see where
He dwelt." "And" is rightly used to
superadd the action of one verb to that
of another, "fin and get It" Implies
two nets, the first essential to fTi" sec
ond. "Try and do It" does not Imply
two acts, its meaning being "Make an
nttenilt to do it." In the latter case,
therefore, the conjunction Is incorrectly
used. Whenever "and" can be replaced
by the simple Infinitive, without chang
ing the meaning, this change should be
made In the Interest of good diction.
Two nouns connected by "and" may be
followed by a singular verb when the
two nouns are hut different expressions
for the same thing; as, "The grandeur
and glory of his throne Is proverbial
among the nations."
One may be "approached" by a briber,
one nska or petitions another for a
favor. One "argues" a case but dis
putes a bill; while in debating there may
be an abundance of talking but no
arguing. One's trade, business or
source of livelihood through labor Is his
"vocation;" but what one does, us a
pastime, or side enterprise, apart from
the routine of the clay, Is his "avoca
tion." One resides "In" the country,
"at" n small place but "In" n town, city
or village. One arrives "nt" London;
but If one locates there, one Is said to
live "in" London. One receives a "se
vere," "painful" or "serious" wound,
not n "bad wound. He who "wants to,
see his friend badly" means, of course,
that he greatly desires to see him.
One hears the "romninder," not ihe
"balance" of the symphony, "balance"
always Implying an equal division ns
by the poising of scales. "Beastly"
weather does not exist, because the
weather under no circumstances can be
said to resemble a beast; the nearest
approximation to accuracy In such n
use of this ndjecllve Is reached when
we say that lllchnrd line whs "b"astly"
drunk; but here our friend Tallle Mor
gan would probably protest that thin Is
a wanton libel on the bonsts. When
one promises to "be back directly" he
means, "return" or "come back." A
house is "being built" (upon Ihe sane
lion of the best writers for more than a
century) notwithstanding that Itlchard
(Irani While and certain others desired
us to say that the house "Is building."
The distinction Is nppureut when we
contrast the similar expression, "He Is
bleeding" (us a wound) with the pas
sive phrase "ie In being bled" (as by a
surgeon).
One can reside "between" two large
houses and "among" several such
houses. A house, by the way, can be
either big, large or great, usage having
permitted these words to have Inter
changeable meanings when applied to
non-sentient things; but a big mnn
need not necessarily be a' great man,
nor a great mnn a large man.
Napoleon, by many considered the
greatest man of modern times, was a
small man. In stature. "Both," as a
conjunction usually conveys the Idea of
two persons or things, such us "Both
John and James went to school." Hut
it Is permissible to snyt "He lost nil his
live stock both horses, cows and
sheep," because "both" here .perforins
a function not within thepnwrr of any
other equnlly economical word. Is It
correct to say "both of us," ('both of
them?" Is the preposition necessary?
Literally speaking, it Is not, but widely
prevalent usage among eminent gram
mnrlans has Invested these and similar
expressions With the semblance of pro
priety. I
"Hut" Is not to be used where "than"
will till its place. Thus, "1 have no
other recouse but that" should instead
be, "I have no other recourse than
that," a point made clearer If we trans
pose the sentence thus: "I have no re
course other than that," which Is-palpably
more satisfactory than "I have no
recourse other but that." The preposi
tions "with" nnd "by" cause much per
plexity, which could be overcome If
the rule were, borne in mind that "by"
Is properly used before the agent or
doer; "with" before the Instrument or
means. Thus, President Carnot was
killed "by" the assassin, Caesare Santo,
"with" (by means of) a dagger. The
point is elucidated In the vocabulary
treatment of "by" on pages 2.19 and
2ti0. where we learn that "by" refers to
the agent; "through" to the means,
cause or condition; and "with" to the
instrument. "Hi" commonly refers to
persons
with," to things; and
"through" may refer to either. This is
Illustrated by means or the following
sentence: "The road having become
Impassable thiiuigh long disuse, a way
was opened by pioneers with axes."
"My" may, however, be applied to any
object which is viewed as partaking of
action and agency; as, "the metal was
I corroded by the acid;" "skill is gained
I by practice." We communicate "with"
a person "by" letter. "Through," on the
other hand. Implies a more distant con
nection than "by" or "with." and more
Intervening elements. Thus, "material
i objects are perceived by the mind,
through the senses.

Tn "liryond the Dreams of Avarice"
(Xew York: Harper & l'.ro.l, Walter
Hesant presents a telling picture ..f the
corrupting power of ill-gotten wealth,
l.ncian Calvert Is a young physician,
masculine, masterful and successful.
His father, on his death bed, tells
Luelan 'that Calvert is not his ltal
name, but only a middle name, the
proper surname being Hurley, by whit h
name Lucian's grandfather, hitherto
unknown to Lnclan, had accumulated
millions of money out of operations ns
a manager of gambling hells, a pawn
broker and nn all-round trntlieker In
human vice. Lucian's father hud fore
sworn tho family name so as to escape
this contaminated fortune; but the
grnnds-on Is no sooner told of his pos
sible heirship than there begins t.i work
In bis breast, unconsciously at tlrst, the
Insidious leaven of coveteousness, ava
rice nntl gived for name and wealth and
power. The development of this pas
sion to Its culminating point where the
victim sacrifices wife, friends, profes
sional prospects and almost every prin
ciple of honor to it, only to learn, after
a few hours' anticipatory possession,
that a newly-found will has robbed him
of every penny, Is sketched with a
graphic hand. The young man recov
ers from this blow ami as we lake
leave of Mm, bids fair once more to be
come a useful member of society; but
the vlvldly-drawn lesson of his tempta
tion nntl fall remains burned in the
mind, ns If seared there by heated In
struments. An admirable bit of fooling which
will prove a welcome diversion from
weightier cares comes to ns from the
Harpers In Hayden Carrtith's "The Ad
ventures of Jones." Jones Is nn Iowa
or Kansas gentleman of rural procli
vities we forget which, nor dors It
matter whoso range of adventures
runs all the way from being rolled
across two states In n spherical cyclone
house to a series of most unique ex
ploits In the home of the polar bear.
There is no effort ut releir;llle uccur iey
In Jones' peregrinations. Like the
wind, ho bloweth ns be PMeth. Hut one
foils, ns be surrenders to the tonic
swing of this nirgresslve western tale
teller, that If Jones didn't do the things
that are set. forth In his book of trav
els, It wasn't because of any hick of
origlnnllty or nerve on the part of the
aforesaid Carruth. Munchausen was
circumstantial: whereas, Jones Is ltret
llartesque. We perfer the "forty

If one Is not nsked to be too critical,
(leorge Hnssett's two r-torlcs, which the
Harpers publish In a neat volume under
the title of "Hlppolyte and (loldeu
Honk," will pass muster nn quite de
lightful reading, of a purely entertain
ing kind. Wo tnke this writer to b
comparatively a new one; In which case
the cleverness of the book, its bristling
epigrams and n certain moving power
of dlnlogue that carries the reader's In
terest through to thp end, without flag
ging, ought In fairness to receive due
praise, while of minor blemishes Ut'tle
be said. The mult) point Isvthut he nc
ceptably whiles nwny the Idle hour for
one who has Idle hours to while nwny;
und what more, pruy, could such a
.one desire?
The Irlnls of a well-reared young girl
reduced to tho necessity of working for
a living are sympathetically told by
Mrs. Lucy C. Llllle in "Alison's Ad
ventures" (Philadelphia: Porter &
Coates; Seranton: for sale by M. Nor
ton). These trials are neither few nor
easy; but by vlrtua of sound principles,
pluck and wholesome common sense,
our young heroine emerges from them
unsullied and happy, marrying her
lover In the last chapter with true wo
manly devotion. "Alison's Adven
tures" Is a noverwlth a purpose. It
tries to teach by example that honesty
and chastity In women are not incon
sistent with success In bread winning.
And Its instruction, while never labored,
Is always wholesome not a bad recom
mendation, we think, In view of the pre
valent and not always benetlcal fer
ment In literature over problems of sex
and society.
