Universal Language.
Never do six months pass by with
out Homo attempt being made to do
away with the disadvantages of the
diversity of tongues; but so far suc
cess has not attended any ono of
them. Strugglo as they may, the In
ventors of universal languages cannot
got. awny from Latin, and the present
attempt, that by Prof. Peano of Turin
resolves Itself into Latin without In
flections. The professor proposes to
do awny with cases, numbers, gen
ders and person, and also with tense
and voices, using the ahlatlvo In the
case of substantives, and the infini
tive minus -re or -rl for the verbs. In
fact, his system Is the evolution of the
Itnllan tongue carried to its logical
conclusion. NeaTly everyone learns
Latin more or less, nnd It Is difficult
to soo why the simple Latin of the
Middle Ages, without any straining
nrtrr Ciceronian eleganclos, should
not sulllce for all our international
needs, during the few years which
must pass before all the world speaks
English. London Globe.
Derivation of "Impediment."
"Impediment," coming from a Latin
word meaning to catch or hold the
foot, vividly expresses the nature of
anything that entangles or hinders
one in the performance of any action.
Still, to speak of an impediment in
one's speech is in a certain way to
get one's foot In one's mouth.
School Gardens.
It Is said that no fewer than 7.7C9
school gardens exist in Austria, not
Including the sister kingdom of Hun
gary. They are connected with both
private nnd public schools, and arc
used for purposes of practical instruc
tion in horticulture and troo growing.
Popularity of the Kiss.
It would lie exceedingly Interesting
lo know how tho kiss has spread from
natioi to nation, as it lias, around the
world. For centuries apparently the
love labial, as Dr. Holmes calls it,
has been known and used by even the
stolid, unemotional Chinese.

' C tULerf TO BLI
Chemical Means Employed to Produc
Desired Shade.
"Approximately 30,000 gallons of
butter color are used in Wisconsin
each year, yet tho vast majority of
ity people do not oven know that
the rirh yellow color In the butter
vhlch they select as the best is pro
luced by chemical means," said W.
1. Burkholder or Burlington, Iowa.
'The result of the popular fanr-y for
a deep color In butter is the exist
ence of an Immense indit'itry, em
ploying many men and much capital,
flutter color is used in small quanti
ties at a time, but It counts up In the
iggregate. There are about 1,000
creameries in this state, and averag
ing the amount of butter color pur
chased by (hem all In a year and add
ing the quantity sold to the farmers
through retailors shows that a seem
ingly Incredible nmount of the chem
ical is used.
"The natural color of butter in mid
summer, when grass is plentiful, is
what the people want, hut to maintain
the same shade 'hrout-h the year, the
artificial preparation Is necessary.
There are many manufacturers of Ihe
product, and they all strive to get a
combination that will make as clear
a shade as possible. The process is
of rourse. guarded carefully.
"Butter color is made from analine.
and tho desired shade Is technically
called a.o." As a very small quan
tlty will color a large amount of but- J
tor, the presence of the chemical can
not he detected by tho taste, but in
large amounts it Is poisonous to a
degree." Milwaukee Sentinel.
