FRANK VIEW OF CLEvELAND.-Gov.
Oates, of Alabama, is out in an inter-
view, in which be repudiates the asser.
ton that he and Captain Johnston, the
silver candidate for governor, have
formed combination. to copper the
senatorial and gubernatorial nomina-
tions. Among other things of interest,
he says:
"I appealed to democrats last year
wherever l spoke, for harmony in our
ranks. I told the people then that I
did not approve Mr.. Clevelaud's course
in all things, but that 1 was too loyal q
democrat to denounce the administra-
ton or strike it single unfriendly
blow because l differed with the Presi-
dent in some things, I stand now just
where stood then. 1 blame Mr.. Cleve-
land because he refused to lead and di-
rect his party in Congress.
II aud other friends tried to get him
to set forth in his message his policy,
financially and otherwise, to rally to
his support all who would follow him,
and give to them the patronage which
would have made him greater leader
than any President we ever had, not
excepting Hickory Jackson, but he
would not do it,
"He is no politician, and the situation
when he was inaugurated and after was
such that we needed the services Of one
of the ablest to lead and discipline the
incongruous elements in our party
which would have made it invincible
for years to come. He roasts the Ala
bama Senators for hunting over the
State for votes, and thinks in the in
terest Of harmony they should not
do it.

FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.
DO YOU KNOW HERR

have little friend who doesn't like TO mend,
To dsst. or set the table or even make abed;
The very thought Of sweeping nearly sets her
of a-weePing,
And she always goes about it as though her
feet were lead.
She hates" to rock the baby and says that
some day, maybe.
She'll go away and linger where they have no
babies round
To keep folks busy rocking-but really this is
shocking,
And she doesn't mean a word Of what she
says, will be bound.
"Tis true she cannot bear to even walk .
square.
To bay spool OF cotton. or stamps for NAM
mas mail,
And it's much against her wishes that she's
set to washing dishes,
While to speak Of darning stockings is enough
TO make her pale.
In fact, she wants TO shirk everything resem-
bling work,
And the only thing she does enjoy, so far as
1 can say,
Is to take her doll and books, and within some
quiet nook
To read of elves and fairies, and dream the
hours away.

Really Remarkable Discovery.

Nature has beautiful habit OF
adapting herself to difficulties and
weakness, whenever that is possible. II
she is choked and hindered in one direc.
ton, she tries to become more vigorous
in another. An English author saws
that man of middle age, with whom
he is acquainted, found one of his eyes
affected, as he thought, by reading
small print at night, and applied to a
famous oculist for advice. The doctor
examined him very carefully, and
presently Inquired whether he had
ever suffered any inconvenience from
the other eyeA the right one.
None what(Syer," was the reply.
"Still," said the oculist, dryly, ut is
very important for you to preserve the
sight of your left bye ifsssHfucif as you
have never seen with the other since
you were born!"

one of these spiders in the path, a
large, hairy, black fellow, that had an
ugly look. l stopped down and todched
him with my pencil, when he sat up
on his hind legs, opened his jaws and
was ready to fight. l touched him
again, when he seized the pencil with
his fangs and left two minute drops Of
poison where they had touched it. His
bite would, no doubt, have been a very
painful one. The spider springs upon
his prey, like a wolf, drags it to some
cover, and devours it. l have seen one
kill and drag away very small toad.
l think it is the wolf spider that digs a
hole or gallery in the ground eight
or ten inches deep, from which he
sallies forth in search of victims. The
top of his hole is lined with silk to keep
the earth from caving in. One day,
! while walking through, a field, 1
CHANGED to see one of these holes in
| the ground. Hooked into it and saw
two bright, cleaning points in the
darkness at the bottom. They were
the eyes of the spider. A few days
later l walked that way again. I
stopped and looked in the hole, but saw
no cleaning eyes. Looking closely on
the ground about the entrance, / saw
fragments of the dismembered body of
the spider. Some enemy, some fiercer
wolf, had caught the spider at his door,
or had dragged him forth from his
cave, and deyoured him by his own
doorstep.
The most pleasing spider to contem-
plate is the little spider that rides upon
the wind, the flying spider. 1t mounts
some post or other object, shoots out a
filament from its body, which floats
out upon the air, till presently it is
buoyant enough to lift the littls. spinner

A Cows Peculiar Devotion.

Down in Georgia lives very pecul
lar black COW. She is very much at
tached to her masters children-sc
much SO that she is never willingly sepa
rated from them. If the children ara
at home, the cow will stay in pas
ture with fence three feet high; but
if they go away the COW will throw
down even high fences to follow them
At different times when the COW would
be in the pasture the farmer asslipsed
the children away from home, but
when she missed them she would get
out and track them as a dog would do
until she found them, and then follow
wherever they went.

which is not always the case with the
various races of old India. Some of the
little Burmese girls are very pretty
and very graceful. They are fond of
many trinkets, and, though shy in
their manner, they easily become ac-
quainted with strangers Ehen the lat
ter are lavish enough in their gifts of
pretty things.
I All Burmese boys are educated in the
Buddhist monasteries, but it has not
hitherto been thought necessary to
teach the girls more than to read and
write. To be pretty, to be religious, to
be amiable and gay-heartcd, and to
have a good business instinct is all that
is demanded of girl in Burma; pres
emily, when she comes to learn the adj
vantages which education confers in
dealing with the foreigner, she will
doubtless demand it as her right
her aim, and few things human
are more charming than group
of Burmese girls going up to the
pagoda to worship at festival With
her rainbow.tinted silk tamein fastened
tightly round her slender figure, her
spotlessly clean short jacket modestly
covering the bosom, and with her
abundant black tresses smoothly coiled
on to the top of her head, in the braids
of which sweet-smelling flowers are
stuck, the Burmese girl knows fun we'll
she IS an object to be admired. Per-
fectly well pleased with herself, and
contented with her world as it is she
gayly laughs and chats with her COM
panicns.
Burmese mammas have some sweet
songs with which they lull their baby
boys and girls to sleep. One of the
pretticst of these is given below. These
verses are translated by Shway ,Yeo, a
learned native poet; see how dainty
they are:
Sweet my babe, your fathers coming,
Rest and hear the songs I'm huEning;
He will come and gently tend you.
Rock your cot, and safe defend you;
Mothers setting out his dinner
Oh, you naughty little sinner
What yell from such wee thing.
Couldn't be worse II you we're toethingi
My sweet round mass CT gold
Now pray do what you're told
- Be quiet and good,
AS nice boys should.
0, now please,
Do not tease,
Do be good,
As babies should.
All, yes, Burma is happy land, and
its people are all gay and honest, and
sober, and the sunlight is warm and
strong in their land even az their bodies
are strong and their hearts warm.-N.
