PHYSIOLOGY IN VERSE.
A Good Way to Teach Children an
Otherwise Dry Subject.

Put some fact into rhyme and see
how soon child will learn it.
This knowledge ofa child's apti-
tude for learning and bering
rhymes has caused teachers of the
primary classes to endeavor to obtain
simple, easy rhymes, for the use of the
children, containing some required
lesson.
The harder and drier the subject,
the greater the necessity. There is
scarcely any subject of less interest
to a child, or harder to master. than
the bones of the human body.
Even this unattractive subject has
been made the basis for rhyming,
and the follwing lines will be of int
crest to all and especially to children:
In my little face. so plainly seen,
II you count the bones youll find fourteen.
And besides all these. somebody has said,
You'll find eight more In my little head.
On each side of my head there's n tiny pink ear
with three bones In each TO help me hear.
And locked together, in long. white line,
Are the twenty-six bones that make my spino.
II you look at my shoulder you will find
bone In front and bone behind.
While my twcnty-four ribs togei her combine
To make this stout little chest of mine
The bones of my arm, you see, are few;
One I'm my arm, In my forearm two;
The bones ia my wrist are snug and tight,
Eight In my left rni eight In my right.
Five In each hand and Ave In each foot
Twenty-eight In fingers and toes are put
One bone In each hip. and II looks like n cup
The end fmy thigh-bone will just al Il up.
This bone I'm my thigh has very queer name,
fenur, or thigh-bone, u means just the same.
The knee-pan covers the Joints of my knee:
From there tony ankle, two bones you'll rec.
The seven short bones in my ankle found.
by strong, white cords together are bound.
IL an apple or pear wish 90 bite
have thirty-two teeth, so clean and white
And TIL always remember In spite Of my play,
With wator and brush to cleanse them each day
Since the way that sit my bones must affect
I'll try. while I'm young, to sit op erect.
And when grow older. you'll every one soc

manufacturing State--arc Demo
Gratis am myself in favor of pro-
lection, but believe we have gone
far enough, and whether we have
gone far enough or not, l insist
that If manufactures wants more
protection he must demonstrate the
necessity for 1t. This has not even
been attempted to be done, but
with an insolence which in itself
calls for rcbukc, the manufacturers
and those who represent them have
simply said, we want il and that is
enough. There has not been an
argument which was worth the
name offered to show that higher
protection was needed. 1t is rather
poor comment on the American
manufacturer that, after having
been given the local field for more
than thirty years by high duties, he
is not only still too weak to stand
alone, but too weak to even exist
unless he gets still higher protection
than he has ever had. am open to

by the hundreds endorsing my
course, and all from Republicans,
and | also get scores of similar let
ters from Republicans in the Eas-
tern and Middle States. Isn't it
quite possible now that a man may
be good Republican and n good
protectionist without taking the
same view of particular duty
which the manufacturers do Isn't
il possible that manufactures who

ton Of duty is liable 20 he warned
somewhat by his self interest, and
isn't il fair for the consumers of the
United States to say in given case
that even the duty may be necessary,
the burden on them Is greater than
they ought to bear? Ny judgment
is the manufacturers are making an
issue which is going to be hurtful to
them, as l also sincerely believe
that the imposition Of the duties
which they are asking for will be
hurtful to the country. II this sin
cerc belief makes INC other than u
Republican, then | have never
known what the Republican part
was. You quote Mcssrs. Mckinley
and Reed to me. They are two
very eminent men, but human be-
ings are liable to be mistaken. May
] not, in opposition to that, quote
Mr.. Blaine to you? May also not
quote to you the thousands Of Re-
publicaDs in the State of Iowa who
have left the party OF account of its
position on the tariff, whereby that
State, instead Of giving $4,000 ma
jority, as it did in 1880, is now in
the doubtful column?
Respectfully,

The National Democrat which
was established in Washington ono
year ago by Edmund Hudson, with
the Endorsement Of many of the
great leaders Of the party, has en-
tered upon its second year with a
circulation of 10000 copies each
week. This is perhaps the largest
circulation ever attained by a week
ly newspaper during the first year
Of its existance. The NdfiOHal
Democrat occupies a field Of it's own,
and one that too long remained un-
filed. IT gives a complete record
Of political information, including
the most important speeches that
are delivered by Democratic leaders
in Congress and on the stump. 1t
is rendering the party on important
service, and should be read by all
who wish to keep fully informed
in regard to public affairs and who
mean to defeat The wicked scheme
Of the Republican ,lcaders'tSssccure

ment, in spite Of the fact that the
are, and must remain, the minority

Another Expression from Senator
Plumb.
Senator Preston B. Plumb, IRE
publican) of Kansas, has written
the following letter to a prominent
manufacturer of Germantown, Pa,
in response to q query. We find it
in the columns of the Philadelphia
Press, high tariff and subsidized
organ of the administrator, and
partly from wonder, that the Press
would be fair enough TO its readers
TO publish an honest statements from
tariff reformer, and partly be-
cause the letter is remarkably
good thing we reproduce it in full.
Senator Plumb is a Republican and
has, therefore, fought the McKin-
ley iniquity in the United States
Senate, not for political reasons,
but from a conviction that it is an
outrage OF the people. Here is
Plumb's letter and explanation of
his course

POOR HAWAII!

Hawaii is neat little, tight little
island Kingdom that might be happy
if only people who are alien to it in
blood, race and interests would let it
alone. The natives are a singularly
goodnatured and well-behaved peo-
pie, who, if they were allowed the
lnalienable right of life, liberty and
the pursuit Of happiness in their own
way, would be about the most sunny
and cheerful people on the face of
the globe. In an unfortunate mo-
ment for them the American Sugar
planter discovered that q few of the
Hawaiian valleys would yield an i'm
mense profit if only reciprocity
treaty with the United States could
be negotiated. Corrupt ways secured
a corrupt measure, which has cor
rupted all else. Money became
plentiful in the islands, debauchery
abounded, leprosy extended and
even attacked the whites, certain of
whom became the victims of their
own undoing, whisky and opium be-
came articles of trade, and soon the
white mans cupidity and vices
turned paradise into an inferno.
All this has been taking place within
hail of our free and independent
press without so much as the utter
ance of word of advice. at last
there is restiyeness in Hawaii, and
revolution is in the air. There are
educated and ambitious natives who
think these things can be bettered,
and that it would improve the island
government if it were conducted
upon the principal of "Hawaii for
the Hawaiians. Admiral Brown,
of the Charleston, says that is
awfully wicked, and has caused HIM
self to be sent back to Honolulu to
see that the natives do not sign "a
Declaration of Independence" I'm
Gle Sam should either govern the
natives or leave them alone to
govern themselves. The middle
man should be got rid of at all
hazards. rs. F. News Letter.
