WASHINGTON LETTER.
¥ oatime tne
(From Our Regular Correspondent.)
-Wasurtnerox, Nov. 6th 1896.
The Democrats are up against
the haid wall of defeat again.
Troe, the defsat isnTt as over-
whelming as the McKinieyites
tried to make the country believe!
it was, but still itis defeat. Dem-|
ocrata do not like defeat any bet-
ter now than in the past nor any
better than the Republicans dia
four years ago, but there are
numerous reasons which serve to |
make the defeat of Bryan espe
pecially aggravating, not the leas:
of which is the knowledge chat
his election woald have been so
easy had the gold Democrats giv-
en him as loyal support as the
silver Democrats gave to Cleve-
land in his three campaigns. Still,
thore is very little bitterness ex-
pressed by Democrats. They
made. their fight against the
Steatest odds any party ever
fought against and came so near
winning thatthey frightened some
of the other fellows almost to
death, and, being gocd citizens
and thorough believers in the ruie
of the majority, they are general-
ly disposed to accept the result
philosophically and to wait for
time to even up things, as it gen-
erally does, in politics and in
everything else. |
Although it is too early, owing
to the absence of full and authen
tic returns, to puss full judgment
onthe extent of the defeat, it is
known that a majority of McKin-
ley electors have been elected and
probable that a majority of the
popular vote has been registered
against the free coinage of silver;
it is certain that a m»jonty of the
next House will be anti-silver
Republicaus, and_ feared. that
enough legislatures have gone|
Republican to elect enough Sen-
ators to wipe out the silver major-
ity inthe Senate and give that]
body over to the control of the
anti-silver Republivans. Grant-
ing. that these probabilities will
all turn out to be facts, they are
noi.so terrible, from.a Democratic
point of iy, as they ~at first

and policy to get a little of that
any obstacles to prevent its com-
ing or drive it away after it ar-
tives. If they fail, as they have
done before, the voters will see
their mistake and will give the
Democratic party a chance to see
what it can do towards making
the country permanently prosper-
ous, instead of
prosperous with Jong intervals of
ohard times� betweer.
Many things might be said
about the methods pursued to se-
cure McKinleyTs eiection, but as
the case ia analogous to that of
some of our unserupulons rich
men who have no hesitation about
violating moral laws to get mon-
ey butare almighty caretul not
to violate the criminal laws, it is|
probably best tulet them go with
Out comment.
Since uhe election there has
been copsiderable talk about a
reorganization of the Democratic
party upon soute basis wlveh wil
bring togeiher jn one orgauiza-
tion all those who believe in the
fundamental principles of the
party. Such a movement proper
ly conducted is worthy of ail
commendation, but if it is inteud
ed merely as a means of restoring
to leadership the men who failea
the party in its bour of need it
will be certain to receive the con-
demnation it deserves, from the
rank acd file of the party"the
men who bore the brunt of the
battle just lost. There may be
two opinions as to the need of a
~eorganization of the Damocratic
party, but it is certain, to my
mind, and [I think to that of the
most of those who are familhe:
with the working of the campaign
just ended, that the Democraie
party needs organ zition very
badly in some States. That is
ove of tha few things that th
party might find that it would be
advantageous to copy after its
Opponents. Had the Democratic
party been organized as it should
have.been Senators Jones and
Faulkner would have had more
trustworthy iuformation from sev-
eral. States than they were fur-
nished with, and had they known
the real situation in several Staces
that. were lost they might have
taken steps that would have
saved them and possibly have
changed the result of the elec-
tion. It 18 the custom to sneer
at party machines in some quar
ters, but for all that they are
neccecsary adjuncts of most suc"
cessful camgaigus.

_ AMATEUR MASSAGE.
The, desma Movements of the Hands
at They Are For,
The benefits of massage are 80
count thet, and no ill person should,
| be denied the inyigorating effects of.
othe laying on of hands.TT Many
persons are kept from the curative
effects of massage by the thought of
xpense, skilled masseuses receiv-.
ing high wages. Toenable the home
attendant, or friend in some degree
'to take her place is the aim of this
article.
The skilled masseuse must know
the body, with the location of nerves
and muscles, that he or she may be
able to give such as need it special
treatment.
Massage supplies to the feeble the
exercise they are unable to obtain
otherwise and includes a series of |
movements of limbs, fingers and
toes, as well as the strokes of the
masseuseTs hands. These, some-
what violent, should not be tried
~without the advice of the physician,
and no direction for their use is in-
eluded in this article.
The strokes given in massage are
for restfulness or for the purpose of
rousing blood vessels and other or-
gans to action and may _ be light or
hard, the same variety of stroke bo-
ing varied to suit the patient. No
rule can be given for this, as judg-
ment is something given only by na-
ture and experience.
Massage must never be given to
weary, and the masseuse should
have a hand firm, but soft, flexible,
sensitive and strong. Even an ama-
teur may have this kind of hand,
and practice will make it full of
healing.to the sick.
The masseuse must stand or sit in
a position comfortable for herself, or
otherwise she will be unable to give
comfort. Itis the rule to rub the
limbs toward the body. Beginning
at tip of fingers, rub with steady
stroke toward the shoulder, varying
the force according to the wish of
the patient, and covering the whole
arm. Starting with the toes, rub
toward the thighs. The rubbing of
the abdomen is in a circular course.
On the back it follows the course of
the hackbone and must have some
force to it.
With all the motions, in a general
treatment the arms are taken first,
then legs, chest, abdomen, back"
from one end to the other of the
spine.
Rubbing with the flat hand is the
ordinary ~mathod known to every
one. There is also rubbing with the
tips of tae fingers, which is very
soothing when done lightly and of
ten induces sleep. when practiced or
the head and wrists.
An invigorating motion is given
by resting the base of the hand on
arm or body, placing tips of fingers
firmly on the skin and drawing to-
ward the base of hand, working in
this manner from wrist to shoulder
and from foot to thigh. The hand is
it
never flat when doing this, but bent
to give purchase to the action of
the fingers.
It will be found that the motion
of kneading the flesh, which is al-
most precisely that of kneading
bread, will give both stimulus anda
restful sensation to the invalid. Q1
the limbs this is taken from side te
side, not up and down, as the former,
but like it in that it starts at the
wrists and ankles working upward.
Last of all, and often omitted save
in cases of sluggish circulation,
comes percussion, which is slapping
the entire body from hand to.shoul-
der, from foot upward, the head be-
ing omitted. This-may be done with
the entire, band flat, or with if bent
so that only the fingers, thumb and
base of hand touch the flesh, and
must be done carefully, as even gen-
tle blows on tender surfaces are of-
ten not beneficial.
Practice will make these hints
plain and enable any one with a
to aid in curing the.sick or in mak-
borne, and there are many women
and children, who will take massage
