TROUBLE IN DENMARK.


Things in Hanlet's Kingdom That Arc De-
ctdedly Rotten.
King Christian. of Denmark, is a
lice old gentleman in many respects.
And he really ought to he, in common
gratitude to Providence. He was a
onc-horse German Prince, with nobody
to rule over, and hardly a nickel with
which to buy q glass of cool. refreshing
beer All of a sudden he was given
the Danish throne, and since his Access
sion to sovereignty he has got good
places for all his sons and daughters in
the crown and scepter line of business.
But. with all his good points. he is
wrons-headed in some respects. and
extremely pig-headed in his wrong
Medicines. He not only wants to
have his own way in every thing Tin
which regard he does not differ much
from most of us); but he has strong
ideas about the Divine rights of Kings
ideas that do not seem very unnatu-
raj when dropped from the altitude of
a Hohenzollern Kaiser. but which GER
tainly do appear ridiculous when pulled
up from the low level of a pumper-
nickel kinsling. The difficulty into
which his royal nibs of Denmark has
plunged himself by his mulish abso-
lutism is thus explained:
The rejection of the Danish Minis
try's budget and the consequent abb
rupt closing of the session of the Rigs
dag by royal decree is only n more
repetition of a performance that has
been going on at intervals for several
years. The Polishing. the popular
body. regularly refuses 10 grant the
appropriations demanded by the Es-
trup Ministry. which. alike by its arbi-
trary methods and by insisting on large
military expenditures, is in great dis
favor. The King rs regularly there
upon dissolves the Rigsdag and votes
himself a provisional budget by procla-
nation. as he may lawfully do under
IN exigency clause in the Danish con-
stitution. Then when the Parliament
reaSsembles it refuses to approve this
resort to the exigency provision, and
also rejects the regular annual budget.
This performance has been of late fire.
quent to the point of monotony. In
the autumn of 1886. again during the
first days Of 1887, then in April of the
same year. and once between that time
and the present these parliamentary
crises have occurred. 1t is 4 strange
struggle that goes on in Denmark.
King Christian persists in his methods;
the Polishing holds to its own; the
Landsthing supports Prime Minister
Estrup; the people regularly send an
opposition majority to the lower house.
The marvel is that the quarrel goes on
so long without armed revolt,-N. \.

LEARNING TO TALK.
The Process OF Language Development
BABY.

. BABY.
Exceedingly interesting is the process
of language development in a babe.
No study in anthrOpology is more fer
tile. The babes first cries are purely
instructive and therefore purely animal.
Its complaints are in and by pure labi-
ais and liquids-used with the open
NOVELS. 1t does not use the genial
tubercle: nor for many weeks the frontal
brain. Its second list of sounds move
farther back. and are &. goo. gutturals
of the simplest sort. This G sound. with
its natural associate !. becomes the
~well-known basis of all primitive Ian
languages-the clicking OF clicking of
Amos and Hottentots. Next observe
the babe As it watches your mouth and
laughs at your cooling and your baby
talk. 1t finally sets its W a~rticulating
organs in motion and initiates you.
The consequence oon is simple use of
the frontal brain and the genial tuber-
Gle. The goo-Soo is followed by eh-eh
and che-cI,e. and soon after by modu-
lation. These are not only the first use
of che human organs. but the first cere-
brated sounds. as distinct from instinct
i've and u~tteranceS. The steps
toward a highly complex cerebratea
language are thereafter rapidly taken.
We have to bear in mind that the
babe organically follows historic evolu-
ton. and is an epitomc of past pro-
gress. So also in his speech he moves
on and on over the pathway of the
past. and reviews it all. An intelligent
child expresses appreciation and disap-
probation by the same sounds that are
used by adult monkeys. The savage
hardly uses cerebrated sounds at all.
The refinement of languages has ever
consisted in eliminating the animal in.
h%eritance. The child's use of gestures il
alsoinherited. He does not need to learn
4" use his hands; only to secure mus
cular strengthto direct them. His play
at first is surely animal frOlic, rejoicing
in shouts and shrieks that later he does
not find necessary TO his enjoyment.
His laughing and crying can only be
understood as a language. as they are
surely also in adults. The evolution of
laughter We lid be a delightful branch
of our topic. but a theme too much by
itself. 1t il. enough TO note in passin:
that not oniy do animals laugh. but
