HOW SOME ANIMALS GROW.
Comparisons Between Young and Old
of Various Species.

OF VARIOUS SpcCicSs
1t Is not generally known that the
human baby is smaller at birth in pro-
portion to the size it ultimately attains
than most other animals.
The size of the young Of any animal
varies in proportion to the size of the
brain. and is significant in many ways.
The average height of baby at birth
is about twelve inches. and as the aver
age height of man is generally put
down as ) feet 10 inches. the proportion
is as TO $50.
The young rhinoceros is feet long
when he is born, but when he grows I'D
he is feet in length. Thus the pro-
portion is 1 to SO. The very same meas
urements apply to young master ele-
phant. though the pachyderm In ques-
ton is always measured by the height
of his back from the ground. However,
the young one is about 2 feet high, and
the average height Of a mature ele-
phant is feet. so the proportions re-
main the same. The same relative
measurements hold good In the case of
the young hippOpOtamus.
Incase of the deer we find that the
young are 2Ia feet in height, while the
full-grOwn deer is no more than AZ
feet, or proportion of to 1S. The
CRATES proportions are those Of l to
3.3. for it is ~ feet tall at birth, and
G feet when full grown.
A lions cub at birth is about 8 inches
long. while the grOwn-up Leo measures
about feet, or the enormous proper
tiOn Of 1 to 7.5. The tigers measure
ments are about the same. and so are
those Of Br'er Bear. The rapidity Of
growth of animals also varies greatly.
In general. the larger the animal at
maturity the slower its growth. A man
Is not fully grown until he Is 25 years
old, though he attains his height sooner.
So with animals. A colt or calf gets his
height mt 3 years. but thereafter slowly
gains in power until his fifth year-the
mans development being five times as
slow. An elephant natures slowly.
and lives as long as man. There are
fables telling of the extremely long life
of crows and eagles. but in few cases
have these been fully verified.

Engine and Eiephane.

In certain parts Of India railroad 2 =
gineers have many difficulties to en-
counter, some Of them more amusing
to read about than to experience. OF
one such difficulty an exchange tells the
following story:
A freight train was numbering along,
when big elephant came out Of the
woods and undertook to butt the engine
OF the track. The engineer did not like
to charge the brute. for fear Of an
upset. and several times reversed the
engine, in the vain hope that the ele-
phant would take that as sign of sur
render. and retire.
Finally the elephant backed into the
engine, and setting its fOrefeet firmly
between the rails endeavored to push
the train backward with its hind quar-
ters.
The engineer promptly put ON an
steam, toppled the elephant over .
small embankment, and before 1t could
recover its senses the train passed on.

and leave but the stripes! Is it right
that the escutcheon of our grand repub-

lines of that of George ILL.,"
Judge Moran scathingly referred to
the policy of the administration to-
wards the Philippine Islands and the
cruelties and injustices imposed upon
their people by the causeless war
wased upon them. He cited authorities
and historical facts to demonstrate that
the position taken by Mckinley and his
advisers is not expansion, in the Ameri-
can sense of that word, but is colonial
ism and imperialism pure and simple,
and as such is a violation Of our Constitu-
ton, of the Declaration of Independ-
ence and of the fundamental principles
of American Institutions" In referring
TO the new attitude of the Republican
party and Secretary Gage regarding the
gold standard, and their fears for its
safey. Judge Moran said:
IF it has not been secured the Re-
publican party in convention assembled
in Philadelphia has put in its platform
bare-faced lie. If ii has not been Sc
cured by appropriate Congressional leg
islation. the Republican party is seek
ing continuance in power on the prop
osition that it was faithless to the trust
reposed in 1t when it was last given
power by the people,"
He concluded his speech, as did Mr..
Zeisler, by appealing to the people to
put forth every effort towards the cleo
tion Of William Jennings Bryan. and
SO lead back the imperiled nation to
the paths of national honor and virtue.
s. S. Gregory, referring to the cry Of
Mark Hanna and the Republican loot
ers that the sole issue is one Of pros
perity and the full dinner pail, de-
nounced such hypocrisy as an insult to
the intelligence and patriotism Of the
American people.

HOW MANS BRAIN TIRES.
Scientific Explanation Of the Effect Of
Mental Wcariness.

Mental Wcor1neoSs
Brain cells, when quite fresh and Wig
orous, may be likened to small bal
looms inflated ready for an ascent. They
are round and full, and when seen un-
der the microscope they give evidence
Of being distended.
When our brains begin to work after
a refreshing rest or sleep they are full
Of nerve fluid which the absorbents of
the body and brain have stored up
there like bees fill their comb. So soon
as work begins this vital force is sap
ped to meet the demands upon the
brain, and the process that goes on dur
ing the whole time it is working may
be described in the following way:
| Imagine that these cells are small
goblets filled with liquid and that they
have q tiny stem, through which runs
q tube or opening; the liquid in the
| goblet is drained by the demands Of
mind and body and slowly trickles
through the opening, drop by drop, un-
til either the work ceases or the COB
let Is exhausted.
This latter condition Is not often
reached. for the simple reason that the
owner of the brain is very much more
likely to collapse. When the cell has
yielded half its vital fluid you begin
to experience feeling Of fatigue. and
II you so on drawing the contents Of
the cells you are doing yourself injury
in 4 prOpOrtiOnate degree and nature
will make you pay for 1t In some way
or other.
But all the cells are not involved in
any kind Of mental work, which means
that one part Of the brain may be very
actively at work while the other is
resting and storing up nerve fluid. Thus
it is that man. suffering from brain
fag, may leave his books and so gOlfing
or cycling and feel that he is really
resting; other cells are being called up
on for work now, while the tired ones
those required for mental activity
are enjoying repose.-Pearson's Week

DlsREeARDs CONSTITUTION.
Mckinley Has Committed Acts I'm.

Mckinley Has Committed Acts I'm.
known to Former Presidents.
There is no denying that Mr.. McKin-
ley has committed class of faults un-
known to former Presidents. He has
disregarded the constitution by annex
ing foreign provinces without the au-
thOrity of law. He has employed 65,OGO
Americans to massacre foreigners who
had done him no injury, and TO destroy
without notice, upon friendly people.
TO whom he had first promised peace
and cooperation. He has allowed his
subordinate officers TO denOunce the Or
ganic law which created them as worn
out and of no effect.
He has. in fact. done all the things
which usually precede a coup d'etat.
whether under Julius Caesar or Louis
Napoleon. and. what is unheard of in
history, he has secured q Congress in
cOnnivance with him. l consider any
man who has not done these things as
more fit for the Presidency than Me
Kinley. even if that other man were
considered capable of doing them
To tell me that such man as Ne
Kinley is fit for the Presidency because
his nonelectiOn will cause fall of
stocks strikes ME as ludicrous. This
might be considered sufficient answer
for broker only. Among free and
selfgoverning people it ought to ex-
cite smile. 1t is the old argument by
which Napoleon Ill. justified his coup
detat. What he said was that he must
he emperor, must kill those who Op-
posed him. and must put an end TO the
republic, or stocks would fall heavily.
This is exactly the Mckinley argu-
ment
The proposal TO give Il man who is
elected to the highest office in the State
once in four years authority to decide
wien he will obey the constitution and
when he will not; to annex provinces
when he pleases by simple proclama-
tiOn, and To make treaties of peace
through his creatures, seems to me one
of the craziest propositions in history.
