President Rooshvelt Converted to the New-Style' Spelling Us! of 300 Words That Hereafter In All lessages and r ^umcnts From the White Boose Will Be Printed According to the Recommendation ot the Matthews Committee. President Roosevelt announced his conversion to the spelling reform movement. He has Issued orders to Public Printer Stillings that all mess ages from the President and all other documents coming from the White House shall be printed in accordance with the recommendations of the spelling reform committee headed by Professor Brander Matthews, of Col umbia, and backed by Andrew Car negie. Spelling reform had its greatest impetus when Andrew Carnegie made an offer to finance it. For many years professors and others Jjave beer] laboring to have the public accept reforms in the spelling of cer tain words. The public, while admit ting that the cxlstlug spelling is a philological monstrosity, refused to tako kindly to the suggested changes. When Andrew Carnegie announced himself as a convert to the reform the matter was discussed more than at any time within the past 100 years. Mark Twain promised to take it up after Mr. Carnegie had announced his conversion and had agreed to finance the organization of reformers calling themselves the Simplified Spelling Board, of which Brander Matthews is the president of the Ex ecutive Board. This board announced at the be ginning that it did not propose any radical or revolutionary scheme of reform, but simply wanted to make easy the spelling of certain words. It selected 300 words which it asked the public to accept. Following is the list of 300 words already given out by the Simplified Spelling Board in which changes are proposed : ..

Kordi Dakota Solves the Adultera-. tiou Problem. North Dakota seems to have found the key to the question, "How shall we protect the people from frauds in manufactured products?" a plan which is applicable to foods, bever ages, materials u<jed in the arts, etc. A new law has recently gonu into ef fect designed to make it impossible to deceive people into buying inferior and adulterated paint under the im pression that they are getting real paint, viz.: pure whito lead and lin seed oil. The North Dakota lawmakers did not attempt to absolutely prohibit the inferior pigments, or mixtures of pigments. They adopted the slogan, "Let the label tell," and then left to the people to buy whichever they wished. Under this plan. If any one wishes to buy a mixture of roCk-dust, ground quartz and other cheap elements ^hlch are found in many paints and so-called "white leads," no one can object; for they do It with their eyes open. But if they prefer genuine white lead and linseed oil, they can be sure of getting it, for none but the genuine article can bear a label which says "pure white lead." In all other States mixtures are of ten sold as pure white 'cad which contain little ? sometimes no ? real white lead. It would seem that were this same principle applied to food, beverages and all other prepared articles, where deception is practiced upon the buy er, the question would be solved. It would leave us free to buy what we pleased, but would protect us from unwittingly buying what we did not want. It isn't what a man owes, but what he pays thai keeps him poor.
