lAttle Miss Brag has much 70 say
TO the rich little lady from over the way;
And the rich little lady puts out a lip
As she looks ut her own white, dainty slip
And wishes that sic could wear gown
As pretty as bingham of faded brown
For little Miss Brag she lays much stress
On the privileges of bingham dress
Aha,
Ohoi"
The rich little lady from over the way
Has beautiful dolls in vast array;
Yet she envies the raggedy homemade
doll
She hears our little Miss Brag extol.
For the raggedy doll can fear no hurt
From wet, or heat. or tumble, O. dirt
Her nose il linked, and her mouth Is, too,
And one eyes black and the others blue
AHA,
Oho!''
The rich little lady goes out to ride
With footmen standing up outside,
Yet wishes that sometimes, after dark
Her father would trundle her in the park
That, sometimes, her mother would sing
the things
Little Miss Brag says her mother sings
When through the attic window streams
The moonlight full of golden dreams
AHA,
Oho!"
Yes, little Miss Brag has much to say
To the rich little lady from over the way;
And yet who knows but from her heart
Often the bitter signs upstart-
Uprfse to lose their burn and sting
In the grace of the tongue that loves to
sing
Praise of the treasures all it's own
So I've come to love that treble tone
"Aha,
Oho!"

PRESS COMMENTS.
Point Out One Case.
Inter ocean,

Free trade on the tongue of a good
phraseinaker sounds sweetly and is in an
enticing theory, but confront it with TIL
conditions of great, growing, new world,
rich in everything that the rest of the world
wants, in everything that is absolutely nee
essary to its own inhabitants, and it be-
comes an ignominious and ugly wreck,
scattering disaster, want. and suffer
ing all about it. This has been
the result every time is friends
have gotten the upper hand in this country
endeavored to make even partial test
of its distinctive capabilities. Its friends,
however, never yield. They cling to it
through evil and good report. If they were
paid by British gold they could not be more
tenacious in holding to these theories, which
practically are for the enriching of England
and the beggaripg of America.
Mr.. Watrous makes an excellent sugges-
lion, and that is for the calling of a con-
vert on Of all free-trade college presidents
and professors. He would have them, W hen
assembled, undertake to point out one case
where the application of their theory
to this country has teen advan-
tsgeous. They are the men who are
responsible for the advocacy of free trade
in this country. They have done more in
advocacy of this cause of disaster and suf-
fering in this country than all others, and
it is time they a. d the institutions they rep
resent were held to some sort of RESPONSE
bility. They live off the people and repay
them by filling the minds of the young with
false and disaster breeding theories.

houses that persons of taste are glad to
live in a home that is known only by a
number. Half the languages of Europe,
dead and living, have been drawn upon
in the search after high sounding names
for apartment houses, and there are some
hybrid names among the number that
make linguist squirm with mental

tenants live on in happiness, unconscious
