ter chiefly due to the surrender Of the
government bonds which have been held

decrease in cash holdings following the
neavy loss IN the previous week, as the
result Of the exports Of gold to Europe

borrowing and Of operations incident to
the negotiation of the New York city

The passion for toys and games OF
all kinds Is remarkably developed
among Japanese children. and they
are encouraged TO play games IN much
the same way that children OF other
countries are urged to learn.
One of the most curious features
about Japanese child life Is that each
season Of the year has its own partlcu-
lar games. In fact. the games are dis
tributed. as IL were. and apportioned to
different months -battledoor and shut
tlecock being played at certain seasons
OF the year. ball at another. and so on.
AS for the dolls. they have a special
fete day devoted to them. and in Japan
dolls are as much boys playthings as
girls.
The dolls OF the Japanese boys are
generally dressed TO represent histor-
ical heroes: others are attired as the
emperor and empress or as heroic OF
legendary figures. japanese children.

They also play at funny little cards,
but these, instead of being like Eng

its context.
There is also the "game Of scents. ("

The following financial plank, wrest-
ed from the Mississippi state platform.
is said to meet with favor from many
OF the Democratic leaders at ST. Louis
"The country is to be congratulated
upon the vindication Of the Democratic
contention for an increased volume Of
real and metallic money, in a manner
acceptable to ali Democrats, by the
addition to the worlds stock of money
metals Of two thousand millions in
gold within the last eight years, from
which the United States has been able
TO obtain seven hundred millions
thereby doubling the stock Of stand
ard money raising the per capita cir
culation from s23 to $50, and contrib
utinr TO that advent Of industrial ac-
tisity which could not have otherwise
been obtained and a proportionate III
crease in the worlds stock of silver.
The fact that this result has been
reached by no action OF government,
but by the act u Cod, through human
instrumentalities Of discovery and in
vention, does not lessen our graft
tuder
without wishing to be captious the
New York World ventures to suggest
that after recognizing the establish
ment of the gold standard as IAN act
OF Cod" the convention could make
no mistake in pledging the party not
to tamper with one Of the Almighty's
ordinances.
