A very pleasant social event oc nrred at the home of Wra. Mil lar last Saturday, in honor of Mrs. iVary Berkstresser, Mrs. Miller's ii other, who had reached her i ihty-sixth milestone.

Spelling Reform. j MViitlnurU tiom ni-.t n.i;:e. common spelling? An eminent , scholar, Dr. Wheedou, says : "It ! is both stultifying and demoraliz ing; an execrable nuisance that ought to be abated. " We esteem its effects on the mind to be in the highest degree deleterious physi cally, mentally and morally. "We believe it has sent many a child to its untimely grave and weakened and perverted many a brain it could not murder." "We do not," says he. "approve the practice ol imposing difficult tasks of acquir log useless knowledge, uuder the pretense of discipline. A discip line that trains the young mind to irrationality, to vagueness, to use lessness, to arbitrary caprice, to the substitution of conventional I nmwprmt.inn fnr aaaonf.itil ti-nlb isacursetothe mindand thesoul. It is a training to falsehood, for me e conventional truth is false hood agreed upon a lie by com pact." An intelligent foreigner know ing every language on earth, if that were possible, except the English language, on being taught our alphabet aud then left to him self, without further mstructiou, would never be able to read the first line of the following couplet, taken from Graham's Handbook f Phonography thus: "Though the tough cough aud hiccough plough me through, o'er hfe's dark lougii my course I will pur sue. For "if a uniform prouunci ation were given to the termina tion "ough" in each word this first line would read in some one of the following ways : (Though) "Tho the to co and hicco plo me thro. (Tough) Thut the tuf cut and hiccuf pluf me thruf. (Cough) Thof the tof cof aud hiccof plof me throf. (Hiccough) Thup the tup cup and hiccup plup me thrup. (Plough) Thow the tow cow and hiccow plow me throw. (Through) Thou the too coo and hiccoo ploo me throo." While these irregularities are admitted by all, it is argued that trie s implitied spelling, among oth er calamities that would foll.w, would obscure the tense of verbs, as in the proposed spelling of "publisht. " Butu must be remem bered that it is not proposed to represent past tense oy t,' except only the past tense ends in the sound of t. Thus the past tense of '-kill" would not be "kilt," be cause the past tense does not end in the sound of t, but of d, and will be spelled as now, until a purely phonetic system of repres entations shall have been adopted provided, as it would be, with a character to represent the short sound ol 1, and would then be spelled simply kild. Again, no grammarian mistakes the tenses irregular verbs, although they do not end in ed, or d only for their past tenses. Their tenses are known by their meaning and form. So it would be with all v?rbs in the reformed spelling. Notwithstanding the critical crit icisms of theconservativeelerneni, amoi.g our educators, we shall all yet tiud that the world moves aud the progressive views of modern educators, such as Carnegie and President Koosevelt, will stand throughout succeeding genera tions as imperishable monuments to their memories. The present generations may not, but future generations will spell cat, cow and cabbage with a k. Is the Moon Inhabited.
