odd Facts About Frogs.

The frogs skin is SO important as
a breathing apparatus that the crea-
ture would die ut once of suffocation
II the pores were closed by coat of
sticky varnish, by dust or in any other
way. While we are speaking OF his
breathing you will notice that his
sides do not heave as ours do at each
breath we take. A frog has no ribs
and cannot inhale and exhale MS we
do. but is obliged to swallow his air
in gulps, and II you will watch this
little fellows throat you will see 1t
continually moving in and out as one
gulp follows another. In order to swal-
low his mouth must be closed: lust
try to swallow with your mouth wide
open and see what mean. A frog,
then, always breathes through his
nose, and IL you held his mouth open
he would suffocate as surely as though
you gave his skin coat of varnish.
Mr.. Frog has an enormous mouth for
his size and II we were to put a finger
inside 1t we would find that he has
a row of teeth in the upper jaw and
that his soft white tongue, unlike our
own, is attached in front and is free
behind. When ne wishes to catch any
insect he throws out the free end Of
the tongue. then draws 1t In so rap
idly that 1t is difficult to see whether
he has been successful or not. AS the
tongue is coated with a gummy fluid
the insect sticks to 1t and is carried
back into the mouth, which closes upon
It like the door of tomb. Frogs, how
ever are not limited to one mode of
feeding; they often leap open-mouthed
upon larger prey, which includes be-
sides insects small fish, mice, small
ducklings, polliwogs and tiny frogs

TYPE OF spANIsA.AMERIcAN.
His Many Good Qualities when Not
Busy with Political Revelation.


Busy with Political Revelation.
Naturally we think our type Of man.
hood better than the Spanlsh-Ameri-
cans. Naturally, also, he thinks his
is the best. The decision must be left
to the supreme judge, the Survival
of the Fittest." In the meantime all
our prophets and teachers are declar-
Ing our strenuous life is too much for
us; that 1t leads to degeneracy and
race suicide. Here at least the Cen
trail American has the advantage Of
us. He is not defaulter; he does not
commit suicide He has no use for
sanatoriums or insane asylums. When
not engaged in political revolution,
he is fairly estimable citizen, eve1Ss
by our standard. He is an indilS AZ
father, n kind husband, and..sA Spite
of reputation, is not lazy. On the con-
trary, when he does work he works
steadily, though not rapidly, and IL his
days work consists of but few hours,
in that respect he is leading where our
own trades unions are trying to follow.
His ways are not our ways, but they
suit him and mainly are the result Of
his environment. He eats garlic, part
" because he likes it, but also because
1t keeps his pores open. He knows that
red peppers are good for his liver, and
he prefers stewed chicken to fried salt
pork. He finds cotton clothing more
suitable than wooden to the climate
and the fleas. Since he has nothing
worth stealing, he has no need Of locks,
and an armful of briars thrown upon
the threshold serves as effectually to
keep out four-footed intruders as "a
solid door. He is very religious. Goes
to church Sunday morning as we do
and In the afternoon to the cockflght,
as in parts Of this country at least, we
go to the baseball game. He knows
nothing of football, but If he did would
probably prefer bullfight as being
fully us exciting and not nearly 80

without that mans CONSENT. exclaimed
one of the greatest men of the American
republic. The truth he uttered then is
truth to day, and when yoh and clasp
one another's hand on the 4tl of July
and sing the praises of our great repub-
lie, it is with blanched cheek and weak
ened heart we think of the ten million
human beings away and beyond the Pa
ciic whom the flag of the free hold in
subjugation.
THE Republican party say they point
with pride to the course they have pur-
sued in these islands Sir, the pride they
may feel Is not the pride wish. 1 do
not believe all American army should be
stationed anywhere for the subjugation
of q free people, hot even in our own
land. For one hundred years of our ma
tional existence standing army of less
than 10000 men was sufficient to main
thin and uphold the dignity and honor
of our great nation. but in the morning
of the twentieth century, with the sun
shine of twenty centuries of Christian
civilization beaming upon all humanity,
the great American republic had vast
army far beyond it's shores, not for the
purpose of freeing. but for subjugating.
This cannot be for civilization, for six
millions>of the people We want to subju-
gate are Christians. 1t cannot be for
trade, for the trade of that country to-
day with lis is less than 1t was prior to
the time we entered their port.
Democracy the Leader of Freedom.
"The American republic must live, but
it lives for the American people to pro-
tect American institutions and for the
growth and development of American
civilization. American civilization does
not mean that one man can govern an
other without his consent American
civilization does not mean that the flag
of the free will wave over slave. Amer
lean civilization does not mean that the
trust power of the United States is to
find Judgment ten thousand miles from
its national capitol.
American civilization means more
than this. 1t means honor, uprightness,
patriotism. 1t means love of humanity,
equality of all men before the law, and
the right of every one to have a voice
in the selection of his lawmakers; less
than this is tyranny; more than this is
not asked.
Go forth, Democracy, rs the guiding
star of great people. Thy wand of in
dependence and good government has al
most encircled the globe Permit not one
dark spot on thy fair escutchcon, at home
or abroad, but ever live as the hope of
free people. When thy banner is
torn and tattered, humanity trembles
and oppression has touched the founda-
ton of liberty. 1t remains for the chill
dren of jefferson, jackson and Lincoln
to be ever true to the eternal principles
thou hast taught, that this land may be
of the people, for the people and by the

COULDN'T KILL THE "SkEETERS. !"

SANDUSKY. Ohio, Aug. 7.-When
the ground lease for the Ohio state
university's lake laboratory at Cedar
Point was signed last winter it was
announced that the students would
scientifically exterminate the mosqui-
toes with which the point was infest-
ed by distributing chemicals about
the grounds.
The professors and students were
so confident of success that when
the building was erected no screens,
were provided for the windows and
doors. The laboratory has been openi
three or four weeks now. and every
day and evening loud-smelling chemi-,
calls have been burned on the grounds.
But the mosquitoes do not leave.
Instead, they thrive on the poison.
Experts says they are fatter and
more vicious than ever. The univer-
sity crowd acknowledge defeat by
