Again, in Worcester, the synonymes are given, each under its proper head, in the main work; in Webster they form a separate treatise. One other advantage of Worcester would be conclusive with us, even were other things equal, and that is the size of the type, and the greater clearness of the page, owing to the freshness of the stereotype-plates.

Things went on nicely for a time; scratching with a pen was as easy as rubbing Aladdin's Lamp; and my blank check-book seemed to be a dictionary of possibilities, in which I could find all the synonymes of happiness, and realize any one of them on the spot.

The Iroquois are said to have given the same name, Jegosasa, Cat Nation, to the Neutrals. Morgan, League of the Iroquois, 41. Synonymes: Eries, Erigas, Eriehronon, Riguehronon.

The rules of syntax were discovered by pieces of wood, interlocking with each other in squares, dovetails, &c., after the manner of geographical cards; and as they chanced to fit together, so was the concordance between the several parts of speech ascertained. The machine for composition occupied a large space; different sets of synonymes were arranged in compartments of various sizes.
