Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IX. Neologisms.--( Continued.) Professor Thomas J. Allen advocates the adoption of such a means of improving our language as will give future generations the benefit of the united efforts of the best living authorities on language, and he would gladly support any movement that might lead toward that end. If the expression be allowed, he favors respectable counterfeiting, in the hope that it may lead to the establishment of a mint. But he is not a counterfeiter. He knows that we need more word-currency, but he does not wish to assume the responsibility of coining. He is averse to "free and unlimited coinage." He believes in a single standard--constituted authority. Edward Payson Jackson made a rather neat word in Filipina, to designate a Filipino woman. Dr. Van Dyke, in Fisherman's Luck, devotes a light and airy chapter to the subject of Taxability. Professor John Duncan Quackenboe, in Hypnotism in Mental and Moral Culture, introduces a fearsome word denoting a parlous thing. It is opsomania, which, alas! works its ravages among the young and fair. It gives them "indigestion, mental indolence, chronic gastric catarrh, and, most to be deplored, a fetid breath, which renders the possessor positively odious." "The breath of a healthy girl of twenty," moralizes Professor Quackenbos, "should be pure and sweet as a May breeze," but opsomania "transforms it into a nauseous blast." In his review of the book William S. Walsh comments in these words on this fashionable malady: "It is the commonest of all complaints among the girls of the period. The girls themselves call it a sweet tooth, or, rather, a sweet tooth is that form of the complaint which mostly attacks the girls. In a general way Dr. Quackenbos defines opsomania as a mania for...

Forgiveness God Style

Just hours away from being aborted A child of divorce Twice adopted Three different last names by the age of 16 Married the love of my life who - 48 years later - promised me, "Your life will be hell!" 4 times displaced from my home Emotionally abused A casualty in the war of divorce Left heavily in debt, with little resources and a bad credit rating Can anything good come from such a life?!? Absolutely, if God is in it. When I was 12, I met Jesus. That began a love affair that still continues to grow. Family interference started two years later with restrictions as to when and if I could go to church. During those disappointing, tough teen years, I found two Scriptures that became my solid foundation: 1 John 3 - reinforced my identity and revealed my characteristics as God's child. Sadly, so many people today live in spiritual poverty because they don't know who they are. But that's another book. Ephesians 4:11 - became my life verse. It taught me that contentment wasn't dependent on where I was or what I had. It gave me a mindset based on God. He was in control of my life. Wherever He placed me and whatever my circumstances were, I was there for a purpose - a purpose that would glorify Him and benefit me. So, what then is God's take on forgiveness? The answer is found in 2 Chronicles 7:14. When we meet His conditions, God promised to forgive our sins and heal our land. To me, 'land' means what farmers need to produce their crops. I'm not a farmer. What, then, is my land that God will heal? What are my crops? Land in the physical brings forth fruit. So it is in the spiritual. My very existence is the land that God heals. When I am forgiven, I am in a position to receive healing from the wounds caused by those sins - whether my sins or other people's. As that healing takes place, my capacity to produce spiritual fruit (Galatians 5:22, 23) increases. Unfortunately, people - like my husband - stop at the 'forgiveness' step. Never receiving God's healing leaves the soil of their lives uncultivated. Journey with me through these pages. Listen to a dialogue between God and his child as He shares insights of His actions. Visit with biblical characters and learn of their feelings, fears and thoughts on forgiveness. Discover the process to find out who exactly needs forgiving. Read God's letters explaining His point of view on 'loving our enemies.' Come. Take my hand as we walk through the field of Forgiveness, God-Style.
