A Danish paper compares "1 love

sonic of them the Danish paper is our
only authority for their correctness:
The fhhmnuill says, "t'o ngal nl;" the
Armenian, "Ge slrem ez hez;" the
Aril Mil n. very shortly, "Nehabeeck;”
the Egyptian, similarly. "Vnchkeb;"
the Turk. "Sisi sevo.lorum,” ami the
Hindoo, "Main tyin ko pljar karyn.”
But overwhelming is the declaration
of love of an Eskimo, who tries to win
tla' chosen one hy the pleasing sound
of the dainty little word: “I’nlvlflgs-
saern till ulna let'll mn J in igaarslgu Jo k.”
Tlir Word “Cnnslro.”
Etymologists are driven to pure con
jecture to explain the origin of the
word “enpsize.” One of them suspects
that It comes from the Spanish lan
guage. as so many sailors’ words do,
and may be connected with “cabe-
cenr," to nod the head In sleep or to
pitch ns a ship, and with “capuznr un
baxel,” to sink n ship by the head—
“cabezn” meaning head. Another guess
—based on the fact that "capsize” Is an
English dialect word for moving
hogshead by turning it over alternate
ly on to Its two heads—is that the word
Is simply “cap,” a head, and “seize."
