FOREIGN TRADE IMPROVES.
Secretary of Commerce Redfeid
Makes Official Statement.

Foreign trade statistics for the month
of February are important in connection
with the tariff discussion. according TO
Secretary of Commerce Redfield, they
indicate the extent to which American
sales abroad are increasing.
at is difficult to argue that we cannot
afford to meet competition abroad when
we are already successfully meeting it
there said the secretary in state
ment. He says that the total sales
abroad of manufactures ready for CON
sumption for the first eight months of
the present fiscal year were 1856, 700, 600
gain of s12s,0oo. 600 over the sales for
the same period last year. He also
reports greatly increased sales of manu-
factures for further use in manufactur-
ing and of manufactured foodstuffs.
Secretary Redfield will deliver a speech
in New York City on Wednesday night
before the New York Trade School.

James Hamilton Lewis.

Mr.. Lewis has shone alternately in pol
itics. at the bar and in the sartorial
world as figure of prominence.
Throughout the nation he has been
famed for years as the smartest dresser
of the day. Not only have his clothes
always been OF the latest cut and style,
his Cravats gorgeous. his socks ditto
and his gloves and hat absolutely a la
mode. but the dazzling pink whiskers
never were ragged nor unbarbered-they
were scissored to a nice point just
where they should be at point and
no particular wisp was a whit longer
than IL ought to be. His Jove-like locks
adorning rather imperious head on
1.-the frame ever were In order, albeit
wavy and glinty. His eyebrows. too.
were always slightly 'ferocious and
when Mr.. Lewis lowered or raised them.
depending on his humor, they carried a
message all their own.
As an orator Mr.. Lewis perhaps has
no peer in the United States His
fiuency is a bywOrd. Entering a, banquet
hall after every one else is seated or
mayiap has partaken Of the full sixteen
courses, Mr.. Lewis never has failed to
create - sensation. With uncanny
knowledge of psychology. the sartorial

advent to the moment when the orches-
ira. just finished a patriotic selection
which has aroused tremendous enthusi-
asm. is reaching magnificent climax
And the speech which follows is sure to
he medley OF clever negro stories
and eloquent patitudes just fitting the
moment.
Probably n" speaker ever was more in
demand for dinners and banuuets than
he. When he first came to Chicago his
ability was known, for not long before
passing through. he had dropped in upon
a Democratic dinner and. although vir-
tually unknown. had responded of-hand
to toast aud had taken the laurels
away from William Jennings Bryan and
other celebrities. On the stump Mr..
Lewis often has been referred to as
whirlwind. Certainly he did much to-
ward promoting the political fortunes Of
Edward F. Dunno. both in the mayoral

NOBLE NICHOLS DRAKE
The Hands.

Man is the only animal having per-
factly formed hands.
The fore-feet of a monkey are much
like the hauds of man, only they are
small, hairy and have claws instead of
nails. They use these much like men use
their hands. Other animals that use their
fore-feet as we do our hands are the bear,
rabbit, raccoon, squirrel and mouse.
The hands are made of the fingers,
palm and wrist.
The joints are places where two bones
are joined together. Some joints move
quite freely. Fingers have hinge joints
which can open and shut like pocket
knife.
The knuckles are the large joints Of
the fingers of which there are three
rows, They give strength to the fingers
and greater usefulness.
The nails grow from little pockets in
the skin, as the hair does. Both are parts
of the outer skin.
The nails are made to give firmness
and protection to the fingers; they are
for the most part upon the bare surface
of the true skin. The tender skin under
the nails is called quick.
The fingers are important parts of the
hand, for without them we could do lit
tie work. The fingers are small and long
and are very useful. There are five fing-
ers: the thumb, the first or pointing
finger, the middle finger, the ring finger
and the little finger.
The palm is the middle part of the
hand. 1t is broad and thin. The palm
is very useful, for we can hold things in
the palm of our hands that we could not
hold in our fingers. The skin is tougher
there than in any other part of the hand
The wrists are Just above the hand and
join the hand and arm together. The
bones in the wrist are round and slick
like pebbles. Without the wrist joints We
could not move our hands unless moving
the whole arm.
The hands serve many uses, so We
should be careful to keep them clean al
all times. They become hard and rough
from exposure to the wind when wet, anC
