Johann M. Schleyer Invented a uni

used in commercial correspondence.
Its adoption in diplomacy and science
was urged but it failed to last and
now Is a thing of the past.
Its roots are principally borrowed
from the Latin, German and English.
The orthography is strictly phonetic.
The alphabet had 27 letters, 8 vowels
and 19 consonants. Each letter had
but one sound. Consonants were
sounded as in English except the let
ters c and j; g was hard and h as
pirate. The accent was invariably on
the last syllable. There was only
one conjugation and no irregular
verbs. All the word forms and inflec
tions were regular. The letter w be
came v, and the letter 1 was substi
tuted for the letter r. Almost all the
words were one syllable. Nouns had
one declension and four cases. Adjec
tives were formed by adding ik to the
substantive, and adverbs by adding
the letter o to the adjective. For ex

Period of Pueblo Home
Revealed by Tree Rings
An ancient tragedy resulted in the
discovery by a Smithsonian institu
tion expedition of what is probably
the oldest known Inhabited site north
of Mexico which can lie positively
dated, says the Pathfinder Magazine.
More than 1,000 years ago an early
American’s family fled from its burn
ing home and lost everything. The
lire which destroyed the home for the
family preserved it for posterity. Dr.
Frank II. FI. Roberts, Jr., institution
archeologist, found the charred re
mains of the home while excavating
an ancient site on a low mesa over
looking the I’uerco river valley in
eastern Arizona. The flames caused
the roof to cave in, pinning down ail
the household equipment, including
clay pots and corn grinding utensil
just as the family had left them.
Some of tlie timbers, the archeologist
reported, were charred but not de
stroyed and thus preserved from rot
ting. The ancient tree rings on these
timbers are still dear. P>y checking
them with the Douglass tree-ring cal
endar the building was dated exact
ly at 790 A. D. Tills old structure
was of the pit. houre type and dates
from the Pueblo ] period.
