The Pncumognstric Nerve.

me fhtuHhoEhSifIc Nerve.
Upon an average, twice IA week,
When anguish clouds my brow,
My good physician friend seek
To know what ails me now"
He taps me on the back and chest
And scans my tongue for bile,
And lays an ear against my breast
And listens there while:
Then is he ready to admit
That all he can observe
Is something wrong inside, to wit;
My pucumogiLstric neryel
Now, when these Latin names within
Dyspoptc hulks like mine
Go wrong. II fellow should begin
To dra ? what's called the line.
II seems, however, that this same,
Which In my hulk abounds,
Is not, despite its awful name,
So fat;l rs il sounds,
Yet, of all tOrmenti known to me,
I'll say without reserve
There is no torment like to thee.
Thou pneumogastric nerve
This subtle, enyious nerve appears
10 be II patient foe
1t waited nearly forty years
Its chance to lay me low;
lhch llke some Dlithellns DllSI Oh nell
1t struck this gIileless bard,
And In that evil hour fell
Prodigious far and hard.
Alas! what things dearly love
Pies, buildings and preserves
Are sure to rouse the vengeance Of
All pneumogastric nerves!
Oh, that could remodel man!
I'd end these cruel pains
BY hitting on n different plan
From that which now obtains.
The stomach, greatly ampliled,
Anon should occupy
The all of that domain inside
Where heart and lungs now lie.
But, first of all, should depose
That diabolic curve
And author Of my Thousand woes,
The pncumogastric nerve!

LACK OF MONEY IN RHODE ISLAND
Republicans in Rhode Island are LAYING their
failure to safely land their Congressman to the
lack Of funds, previously pointed out by The
STAR. The national committee "milked" the
state and left almost nothing for the local COM
mittee. Lieut.. Gov. Bull had plurality over
Col Lapham and Speaker Capron plurality
over Congressman Page. but they fear they
cannot increase their figures at the next cleo
ton. Bull now lacks GAG votes and Capron 500
votes Of an election. The special congressional
elections will doubtless be held on the date Of
the next state election, in 1893 Providence
republican said today:
1--WE must organize for next April and prior
to that we must secure a large registration be-
fore the last day of December. This will take
good deal Of money and would like to know
where it is to come from. IL the manufacture
ers do not come forward we cannot do anything
with the state ticket and with the loss of that
will go the special congressional elections The
outlook for next year is very gloomy"

How Nature Grows n Tree.

From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
Nature invariably does two things when she
tries to grow a tree-she protects the bark from
hottest sunshine and the roots from severe
changes OF temperature. Both these points are
almost invariably overlooked by man. Observe
q maple or elm or birch as it shoots up from
the ground; it's sides are clothed all the way
with small twigs, unless removed by knife or
browsing. Any tree starting in an open lot is
thus protected from the sun. Otherwise the
extreme heat will rupture cells and the bark
will dry or split. As far as possible there must
be equal development of cells on all sides of
the tree. But care of the roots is even more
important. The feeding Of tree is at unequal
depths, but most Of it is near the surface. II
the sun be allowed to strike directly on the soil
the finer rootlets that do the foraging are de-
stroyed, and extreme droughts will affect the
roots for foot in depth. What is worse, the
