SPELIIN MADE, EASY, A Skeptic on the Theory of the Reform Expresses His Views. Phonologioal Reformers Have Failed in Their Frequent and Vigorous Efforts. t.p0,000o Ways is WhLih the rleimen tary euad·s Is the Word Selseors Slay U. Formed. Tt is a remarkable feature connected with the various spelling reform movements that they have all failed, even that father ed by the distinguished phonologist. Alex ander Ellis, and indorsed by the leaders of linguistio science--the palteotype--went the way of all such schemes and was final ly repudiated by its originator himself. The fact is, when the pe5ple find that a language needs reforming they reform it themselves, little heeding the dictums of learned societies in the matter. The Eng lish language suits the English speaking races. It is adapted to all the requirements of the most highly cultivated. In the lan gungo of Mark Twain, it is "a language that can stand the strain when you want to pay something really worth saying," and the great mass of the people object to pay ing a doctor bill where there Isp o disease. That is why spelling reform has not suc ceeded. Every one admits that the English lan guage contains irregularities and incon sistencies. So does every other language. So does the constitution of the vast body of lihuman society. Nothing is free from them. Our laws, our theology, our medicine, all are crude and imperfect. But violent revo lationarymeasures are not admissible. Im provements must be Rmade slowly. The laws of "natural selection and the survival of the fittest" operate here as in the rest of nature's vast domain. The great error of the spelling reformers lies in the assumption that spelling is a log ical process. It is really an exercise of the memory. A word is apprehended as a whole, not as a collection of individual joints. When we write a word, we do not consider it as composed of letters. It is to us simply the picture of an idea, and the ac curacy of our spelling depends upon the vividness of the image in our memory. It is an axiom in psychology that the sim pler faculties attahl a more perfectdevelop ment than the complex. Is it reasonable to suppose that in cases where the basic faculty of memory is so poorly developed that the subject spells cat with ak the judgment can have reached that stage of perfection which is required to carry on the processes of inductive and deductive reasoning in a satisfactory man ner? To illustrate the argument take theword scissors, which Alexander Ellis has already made the subject of computation. Ellis figured out that this word could be spelled about 11,000 different ways. But he admit ted only such signs for the sounds of the word a:s were consistent with the etymo logical analogy. But what does that block head, the spelling reformer's client, who cannot recall the way to spell scissors, know about etymological analogy? Let us see in how many ways lie would spell one word according to the ordinary brand of analogy on tap in his brainpan seven days in the week, Sunday included. The word scissors contains six elementary sounds-to wit: S -I-Z--E--R-S. The first and the last are the simple sounds of "s." The second is short "i," as heard in "thin." The third is the simple sound of "z." The fourth is the obscure sound of '"e," the will-o'-the-wisp of the English language. The fifth is the simple sound of "r." The first and last sounds may be repre sented by any of the following letters and combinations, as will be seen from the ex amples given: By sc, as in scissors. By c, as in circle. By ce, as in efface. lBy s, as is psalm. By s. as in single. By see, as in coalesce. By sch. as in schisma. By se, as in cause. By ss, as iii mass. By st, as in listen. By sth, aslin isthmus. By bW. as inl sword. This gives a sum total of 12 ways by which tlhe sound of s may be represented. The second -outld,,that of short "i," may be expressed as follows: By i, as in seissors. By ai, as in captain. By ae, as in l-:gean. By e, as in Entglisih. By ei, ' as in guine.a. Iy ee, as in bee-n. By ci, as isi surfeit. IBy t, as ist mlo;lkcy. By is, as in .arliatent. 1By ie, its in sieve. By o, as in wm ecn. By t, .cniaathic. By oi, as in tor tie-. 1. ois, as i chtamottis. ley u, as in lusy 11y i, as inl guinea. By ay, as in pllaguy. By y, as in abyss. This yields a sumt total of 19 symbols vuhich are used to exprle.ss the sound of bhort "i." Thei( thirdi sound, that of simple "z," may be cxpes:'-.cd as follows: y .., as inl scissors. By c. as in sufficing. B'y ace. in, sacrifice. By z., uas in czar. By s, asi. i -. Bt y ie, ali ('iillChc. By x, as illi cl(.ii. Iy Z. as in azuisc. Iy ze, as in ulzce. Dy zz, aJ in fuzz. 'lThus "z" mtay be rsprecented in 10differ elCt ways. Tlhe obscure sotllnd of "e' may be ex pressed as follows: BIy o, as inii cisor. By s,as in billiardls. By , asii it uiir.les. IBy ii, is in i urrain. By( , as ini banter. Ily cii, as iu scir-cano. By ci.isa in hlefor. By o, as in lcoe:ar l. By caou, as in righhtius. -y iu, as iin gcrainhiur. by I, os in sir. ]By ii, a-; ill 5iplcia l. 'Ay io, as in coloiplex lool. By oi, as ill avoirciupl,,ist . By ou, las in jourciinal. By I, las in tro. -:y ue, as int guess. By ui, au in circuit. By y, as it myrtl-e. This gives a total of 10.

Boulenger has recently added a classification of snakes. It is a moot point whether snakes form a distinct order of reptiles or a branch of the group to which lizards and chameleons belong. Mr. Boulenger adopts the first theory as regards his text and recommends the second in his notes. He is the only man who has ever classified snakes scientifically. The popr ular generalization that "snakes arepizen" cannot be accepted as scientific; neither can the slightly more discriminating subdlivi sion into snakes which are "pizen" and suakes which are not. The only classifica tion fit to stand, up till now, is the one based upon cranial differences, which Mr. Boulenger has expounded in his work on the "Reptilia and Batrachia of British India." According to this work, there are nine different families of snakes, and India alone knows 264 separate species which fall un der them. The commonest families are the boidce, embracing boas, pythons and the cryx (a two headed snake much affected by Indian jugglers), the viperidae, including vipers and rattlesnakes, and last, but not least, seeing that fully two-thirds of all the snakes belong to it, the colubridae.
