+
+
+  [Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+A for Arab.
+
+
+    This Arab is upset, I fear;
+    Look at his pretty shield and spear.
+    He's stuck two pistols in his sash,
+    And, dear me, how his eyes do flash!
+
+    At home he has a horse to ride;
+    To "scour the desert" is his pride.
+    His horse is of the purest breed;
+    Some people call his horse a steed.
+
+
+
+
+B for Boer.
+
+
+    Here is your little brother Boer,
+    Of course, you've heard of him before;
+    He has a naughty Uncle Paul,
+    Who used to want to eat us all.
+
+    Although he does not wear a tie
+    He's just as white as you or I,
+    And just as fond of cake and fruit;
+    The difference is that he can shoot.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+C for Chinaboy.
+
+
+    Li has a pigtail and a fan,
+    And yet he's not a Chinaman;
+    In fact, he is his mother's joy,
+    A merry little Chinaboy.
+
+    His father is a Mandarin,
+    His father's name is Loo Too Sin.
+    They put no sugar in his tea,
+    Yet he's as good as good can be.
+
+
+
+
+D for Dutch.
+
+
+    Miss Gretchen Groople! She is Dutch:
+    In Holland there are many such.
+    Her shoes are wooden, like the floor;
+    How nice she keeps her pinafore!
+
+    She says that there is nothing finer
+    Than the Dutch Queen, Wilhelmina;
+    She says that she has never seen a
+    Sweeter Queen than Wilhelmina.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+E for English.
+
+
+    The English are a splendid race,
+    Sturdy of limb, honest of face;
+    They own (this is geography)
+    Much of the land and all the sea.
+
+    That is to say, they rule the waves,
+    They never, never will be slaves.
+    They're brave, but do not want to fight,
+    And if you're English you're all right.
+
+
+
+
+F for French.
+
+
+    The French can cook, and fence, and dance,
+    They're fond of shouting "Long live France!"
+    They make the prettiest hats and frocks,
+    Also French pickles and French clocks.
+
+    They shave their poodles, drink much wine,
+    And laugh a great deal when they dine.
+    French boys play soldiers now and then,
+    And must be soldiers when they're men.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+G for German.
+
+
+    Hans, as you see, to town has been;
+    His waistcoat's red, his sunshade green.
+    He lives beside the river Iser,
+    And calls his emperor the Kaiser.
+
+    In Germany, no end of toys
+    Are made for English girls and boys.
+    The English children merely break them;
+    Hans sits at home and helps to make them.
+
+
+
+
+H for Hungarian.
+
+
+    In Hungary they hunt and fish;
+    Between ourselves, I often wish
+    I lived there, for it must be grand;--
+    I've heard the Blue Hungarian Band.
+
+    In Hungary a boy wears white
+    Blouses, his knickers fit him tight,
+    He has top boots of patent leather,
+    And in his hat a peacock's feather.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+I for Indian.
+
+
+    The Indian boy is neatly dressed;
+    He has no shirt, he wears a crest
+    Of eagle's feathers on his head,
+    His skin is of a coppery red.
+
+    If you said to him, "You and I
+    Will run and catch a butterfly,"
+    The Indian boy would say, "No! No!
+    I wish to chase the buffalo."
+
+
+
+
+J for Japanese.
+
+
+    The little Japs are rather small,
+    Even their fathers are not tall;
+    They're very fond of parasols,
+    They dress themselves just like their dolls.
+
+    They live beneath the sunniest skies,
+    Their hair is black to match their eyes;
+    Their robes are black to match their hair,
+    And, O! what tiny shoes they wear.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+K for Kaffir.
+
+
+    This Kaffir looks a trifle sly,
+    He smiles and smiles, I wonder why?
+    Perhaps he's playing at a game,
+    Or thinking of his long, long name.
+
+    His name, you know, is Washington
+    Neb-u-chad-nez-zar Solomon
+    Sambo Snowball Timothy Jack
+    Adolphus Rule Britannia Black.
+
+
+
+
+L for Laplander.
+
+
+    I think the Laplander is nice,
+    He lives among the snow and ice;
+    The reindeer drags his sledge for him,
+    And gives him meat and milk to skim.
+
+    His spears are sharp--they shine like steel;
+    He hunts the walrus and the seal.
+    Often, when he has time to spare,
+    He hunts the white or polar bear.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+M for Mexican.
+
+
+    The plucky little Mexican
+    Rides on the pampas like a man;
+    His horse may kick, and plunge, and rear,
+    He does not feel the least bit queer.
+
+    If he should see an old grey goose
+    Or a young turkey running loose,
+    You may be pretty certain that
+    He'd catch it with his lariat.
+
+
+
+
+N for Neapolitan.
+
+
+    The Neapolitan is wise,
+    He plays the pipes for pence, and buys
+    Ice-cream and candy every day
+    To help him on his weary way.
+
+    His tunes are chiefly of one note,
+    He has a sheepskin for a coat,
+    His water-bottle's painted yellow,
+    He is a handsome little fellow.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+O for Odalisque.
+
+
+    O pretty little Odalisque,
+    I know you want to dance and frisk
+    And play at hide and seek with me;
+    And yet, you know, it cannot be,
+
+    Unless--unless, my dear, you choose
+    To put away those curious shoes,
+    Also your coat, and cap, and veil:
+    They'd hang up nicely on a nail.
+
+
+
+
+P for Persian.
+
+
+    The Persian has a funny hat,
+    He often sits upon a mat;
+    He hears the bulbul sing, and roves
+    Through rose-gardens and lemon groves.
+
+    Child, if by any chance you meet
+    A little Persian in the street,
+    Do not be rude and cry "Yah-yah!"
+    But ask him if he's seen the Shah.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+Q for Quakeress.
+
+
+    I like the little Quakeress,
+    She is so quaint; I like her dress,
+    Her very, very plain white bonnet,
+    Her stuff gown with no trimming on it.
+
+    Her hands are pink, and soft, and small,
+    They peep out from her dark green shawl.
+    She lives on milk, and bread, and honey,
+    She must be saving pots of money.
+
+
+
+
+R for Russian.
+
+
+    Russia is noted for its tar,
+    Its leather, and its great, white Czar.
+    A Russian wears his clothes quite loose,
+    And drinks his tea with lemon juice.
+
+    The Russian boys have chubby faces,
+    They play at marbles and run races;
+    The climate sometimes makes them cough,
+    They've names like Shuffski and Poppoff.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+S for Scotch.
+
+
+    The Scotch wear kilts--both boys and men,
+    When they don't know, they "dinna ken."
+    They love the thistle, we the rose,
+    They're fond of oatmeal, kail, and brose.
+
+    In war the Scotch are very bold.
+    Burns was a Scot, who, I am told,
+    Wrote verses and ploughed fields by turns,
+    So every Scot is proud of Burns.
+
+
+
+
+T for Tyrolean.
+
+
+    The Tyrol has a splendid air
+    And mountains, mountains everywhere;
+    The mountains are all tops and sides,
+    You climb them best with ropes and guides.
+
+    The Tyrolean's hat is smart,
+    He yodels and is light of heart;
+    His yodelling is very sweet;
+    His stockings haven't any feet.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+U for United States.
+
+
+    The States are full of mush and pie
+    And houses twenty stories high,
+    Saw-mills and millionaires and bustle;
+    The people there "have got to hustle."
+
+    The business of the States is done
+    Ex-clu-sive-ly by telephone;
+    And that is why the people say,
+    "I guess we're 'cute in U. S. A."
+
+
+
+
+V for Valencian.
+
+
+    Valencia's a little town
+    In Spain. It's dusty and baked brown,
+    And full of dirt and mules and fleas,
+    And all around are orange trees.
+
+    This well-fed boy, as you may see,
+    Has been dressed very carefully;
+    His garments show that he's a Don,
+    He knows that he has got them on.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+W for Welshman.
+
+
+    Taffy, my boy, I've heard with grief
+    That shocking tale about the beef;
+    But Taffy, between me and you,
+    I really don't believe it's true.
+
+    I'm told that there are pretty vales
+    And hills with sheep on them in Wales;
+    O Taffy, Taffy, don't be put on,
+    You can't want beef while you've Welsh mutton.
+
+
+
+
+Z for Zany.
+
+
+    A zany is a kind of clown
+    Who wanders idly up and down,
+    And wags his head, and shakes his bells,
+    And chortles at the tales he tells.
+
+    He'll joke with you in sun or show'r,
+    And keep you laughing by the hour.
+    Some zanies are a trifle mad:
+    Now we have finished--and I'm glad.
+
+                              T. W. H. C.

+
+
+
+
+  [Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+A for Arab.
+
+
+    This Arab is upset, I fear;
+    Look at his pretty shield and spear.
+    He's stuck two pistols in his sash,
+    And, dear me, how his eyes do flash!
+
+    At home he has a horse to ride;
+    To "scour the desert" is his pride.
+    His horse is of the purest breed;
+    Some people call his horse a steed.
+
+
+
+
+B for Boer.
+
+
+    Here is your little brother Boer,
+    Of course, you've heard of him before;
+    He has a naughty Uncle Paul,
+    Who used to want to eat us all.
+
+    Although he does not wear a tie
+    He's just as white as you or I,
+    And just as fond of cake and fruit;
+    The difference is that he can shoot.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+C for Chinaboy.
+
+
+    Li has a pigtail and a fan,
+    And yet he's not a Chinaman;
+    In fact, he is his mother's joy,
+    A merry little Chinaboy.
+
+    His father is a Mandarin,
+    His father's name is Loo Too Sin.
+    They put no sugar in his tea,
+    Yet he's as good as good can be.
+
+
+
+
+D for Dutch.
+
+
+    Miss Gretchen Groople! She is Dutch:
+    In Holland there are many such.
+    Her shoes are wooden, like the floor;
+    How nice she keeps her pinafore!
+
+    She says that there is nothing finer
+    Than the Dutch Queen, Wilhelmina;
+    She says that she has never seen a
+    Sweeter Queen than Wilhelmina.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+E for English.
+
+
+    The English are a splendid race,
+    Sturdy of limb, honest of face;
+    They own (this is geography)
+    Much of the land and all the sea.
+
+    That is to say, they rule the waves,
+    They never, never will be slaves.
+    They're brave, but do not want to fight,
+    And if you're English you're all right.
+
+
+
+
+F for French.
+
+
+    The French can cook, and fence, and dance,
+    They're fond of shouting "Long live France!"
+    They make the prettiest hats and frocks,
+    Also French pickles and French clocks.
+
+    They shave their poodles, drink much wine,
+    And laugh a great deal when they dine.
+    French boys play soldiers now and then,
+    And must be soldiers when they're men.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+G for German.
+
+
+    Hans, as you see, to town has been;
+    His waistcoat's red, his sunshade green.
+    He lives beside the river Iser,
+    And calls his emperor the Kaiser.
+
+    In Germany, no end of toys
+    Are made for English girls and boys.
+    The English children merely break them;
+    Hans sits at home and helps to make them.
+
+
+
+
+H for Hungarian.
+
+
+    In Hungary they hunt and fish;
+    Between ourselves, I often wish
+    I lived there, for it must be grand;--
+    I've heard the Blue Hungarian Band.
+
+    In Hungary a boy wears white
+    Blouses, his knickers fit him tight,
+    He has top boots of patent leather,
+    And in his hat a peacock's feather.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+I for Indian.
+
+
+    The Indian boy is neatly dressed;
+    He has no shirt, he wears a crest
+    Of eagle's feathers on his head,
+    His skin is of a coppery red.
+
+    If you said to him, "You and I
+    Will run and catch a butterfly,"
+    The Indian boy would say, "No! No!
+    I wish to chase the buffalo."
+
+
+
+
+J for Japanese.
+
+
+    The little Japs are rather small,
+    Even their fathers are not tall;
+    They're very fond of parasols,
+    They dress themselves just like their dolls.
+
+    They live beneath the sunniest skies,
+    Their hair is black to match their eyes;
+    Their robes are black to match their hair,
+    And, O! what tiny shoes they wear.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+K for Kaffir.
+
+
+    This Kaffir looks a trifle sly,
+    He smiles and smiles, I wonder why?
+    Perhaps he's playing at a game,
+    Or thinking of his long, long name.
+
+    His name, you know, is Washington
+    Neb-u-chad-nez-zar Solomon
+    Sambo Snowball Timothy Jack
+    Adolphus Rule Britannia Black.
+
+
+
+
+L for Laplander.
+
+
+    I think the Laplander is nice,
+    He lives among the snow and ice;
+    The reindeer drags his sledge for him,
+    And gives him meat and milk to skim.
+
+    His spears are sharp--they shine like steel;
+    He hunts the walrus and the seal.
+    Often, when he has time to spare,
+    He hunts the white or polar bear.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+M for Mexican.
+
+
+    The plucky little Mexican
+    Rides on the pampas like a man;
+    His horse may kick, and plunge, and rear,
+    He does not feel the least bit queer.
+
+    If he should see an old grey goose
+    Or a young turkey running loose,
+    You may be pretty certain that
+    He'd catch it with his lariat.
+
+
+
+
+N for Neapolitan.
+
+
+    The Neapolitan is wise,
+    He plays the pipes for pence, and buys
+    Ice-cream and candy every day
+    To help him on his weary way.
+
+    His tunes are chiefly of one note,
+    He has a sheepskin for a coat,
+    His water-bottle's painted yellow,
+    He is a handsome little fellow.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+O for Odalisque.
+
+
+    O pretty little Odalisque,
+    I know you want to dance and frisk
+    And play at hide and seek with me;
+    And yet, you know, it cannot be,
+
+    Unless--unless, my dear, you choose
+    To put away those curious shoes,
+    Also your coat, and cap, and veil:
+    They'd hang up nicely on a nail.
+
+
+
+
+P for Persian.
+
+
+    The Persian has a funny hat,
+    He often sits upon a mat;
+    He hears the bulbul sing, and roves
+    Through rose-gardens and lemon groves.
+
+    Child, if by any chance you meet
+    A little Persian in the street,
+    Do not be rude and cry "Yah-yah!"
+    But ask him if he's seen the Shah.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+Q for Quakeress.
+
+
+    I like the little Quakeress,
+    She is so quaint; I like her dress,
+    Her very, very plain white bonnet,
+    Her stuff gown with no trimming on it.
+
+    Her hands are pink, and soft, and small,
+    They peep out from her dark green shawl.
+    She lives on milk, and bread, and honey,
+    She must be saving pots of money.
+
+
+
+
+R for Russian.
+
+
+    Russia is noted for its tar,
+    Its leather, and its great, white Czar.
+    A Russian wears his clothes quite loose,
+    And drinks his tea with lemon juice.
+
+    The Russian boys have chubby faces,
+    They play at marbles and run races;
+    The climate sometimes makes them cough,
+    They've names like Shuffski and Poppoff.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+S for Scotch.
+
+
+    The Scotch wear kilts--both boys and men,
+    When they don't know, they "dinna ken."
+    They love the thistle, we the rose,
+    They're fond of oatmeal, kail, and brose.
+
+    In war the Scotch are very bold.
+    Burns was a Scot, who, I am told,
+    Wrote verses and ploughed fields by turns,
+    So every Scot is proud of Burns.
+
+
+
+
+T for Tyrolean.
+
+
+    The Tyrol has a splendid air
+    And mountains, mountains everywhere;
+    The mountains are all tops and sides,
+    You climb them best with ropes and guides.
+
+    The Tyrolean's hat is smart,
+    He yodels and is light of heart;
+    His yodelling is very sweet;
+    His stockings haven't any feet.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+U for United States.
+
+
+    The States are full of mush and pie
+    And houses twenty stories high,
+    Saw-mills and millionaires and bustle;
+    The people there "have got to hustle."
+
+    The business of the States is done
+    Ex-clu-sive-ly by telephone;
+    And that is why the people say,
+    "I guess we're 'cute in U. S. A."
+
+
+
+
+V for Valencian.
+
+
+    Valencia's a little town
+    In Spain. It's dusty and baked brown,
+    And full of dirt and mules and fleas,
+    And all around are orange trees.
+
+    This well-fed boy, as you may see,
+    Has been dressed very carefully;
+    His garments show that he's a Don,
+    He knows that he has got them on.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+W for Welshman.
+
+
+    Taffy, my boy, I've heard with grief
+    That shocking tale about the beef;
+    But Taffy, between me and you,
+    I really don't believe it's true.
+
+    I'm told that there are pretty vales
+    And hills with sheep on them in Wales;
+    O Taffy, Taffy, don't be put on,
+    You can't want beef while you've Welsh mutton.
+
+
+
+
+Z for Zany.
+
+
+    A zany is a kind of clown
+    Who wanders idly up and down,
+    And wags his head, and shakes his bells,
+    And chortles at the tales he tells.
+
+    He'll joke with you in sun or show'r,
+    And keep you laughing by the hour.
+    Some zanies are a trifle mad:
+    Now we have finished--and I'm glad.
+
+                              T. W. H. C.

+Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions
+will be renamed.
+
+Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no
+one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation
+(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without
+permission and without paying copyright royalties.  Special rules,
+set forth in the General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to
+copying and distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works to
+protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm concept and trademark.  Project
+Gutenberg is a registered trademark, and may not be used if you
+charge for the eBooks, unless you receive specific permission.  If you
+do not charge anything for copies of this eBook, complying with the
+rules is very easy.  You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose
+such as creation of derivative works, reports, performances and
+research.  They may be modified and printed and given away--you may do
+practically ANYTHING with public domain eBooks.  Redistribution is
+subject to the trademark license, especially commercial
+redistribution.

+
+THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
+PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at
+http://gutenberg.org/license).
+
+
+Section 1.  General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A.  By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement.  If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B.  "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark.  It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.  There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement.  See
+paragraph 1.C below.  There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.  See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7.  Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
+
+1.E.8.  You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided
+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+     returns.  Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project

+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied

+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the

+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right

+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.

+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+
+
+
+A for Arab.
+
+
+    This Arab is upset, I fear;
+    Look at his pretty shield and spear.
+    He's stuck two pistols in his sash,
+    And, dear me, how his eyes do flash!
+
+    At home he has a horse to ride;
+    To "scour the desert" is his pride.
+    His horse is of the purest breed;
+    Some people call his horse a steed.
+
+
+
+
+B for Boer.
+
+
+    Here is your little brother Boer,
+    Of course, you've heard of him before;
+    He has a naughty Uncle Paul,
+    Who used to want to eat us all.
+
+    Although he does not wear a tie
+    He's just as white as you or I,
+    And just as fond of cake and fruit;
+    The difference is that he can shoot.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+C for Chinaboy.
+
+
+    Li has a pigtail and a fan,
+    And yet he's not a Chinaman;
+    In fact, he is his mother's joy,
+    A merry little Chinaboy.
+
+    His father is a Mandarin,
+    His father's name is Loo Too Sin.
+    They put no sugar in his tea,
+    Yet he's as good as good can be.
+
+
+
+
+D for Dutch.
+
+
+    Miss Gretchen Groople! She is Dutch:
+    In Holland there are many such.
+    Her shoes are wooden, like the floor;
+    How nice she keeps her pinafore!
+
+    She says that there is nothing finer
+    Than the Dutch Queen, Wilhelmina;
+    She says that she has never seen a
+    Sweeter Queen than Wilhelmina.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+E for English.
+
+
+    The English are a splendid race,
+    Sturdy of limb, honest of face;
+    They own (this is geography)
+    Much of the land and all the sea.
+
+    That is to say, they rule the waves,
+    They never, never will be slaves.
+    They're brave, but do not want to fight,
+    And if you're English you're all right.
+
+
+
+
+F for French.
+
+
+    The French can cook, and fence, and dance,
+    They're fond of shouting "Long live France!"
+    They make the prettiest hats and frocks,
+    Also French pickles and French clocks.
+
+    They shave their poodles, drink much wine,
+    And laugh a great deal when they dine.
+    French boys play soldiers now and then,
+    And must be soldiers when they're men.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+G for German.
+
+
+    Hans, as you see, to town has been;
+    His waistcoat's red, his sunshade green.
+    He lives beside the river Iser,
+    And calls his emperor the Kaiser.
+
+    In Germany, no end of toys
+    Are made for English girls and boys.
+    The English children merely break them;
+    Hans sits at home and helps to make them.
+
+
+
+
+H for Hungarian.
+
+
+    In Hungary they hunt and fish;
+    Between ourselves, I often wish
+    I lived there, for it must be grand;--
+    I've heard the Blue Hungarian Band.
+
+    In Hungary a boy wears white
+    Blouses, his knickers fit him tight,
+    He has top boots of patent leather,
+    And in his hat a peacock's feather.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+I for Indian.
+
+
+    The Indian boy is neatly dressed;
+    He has no shirt, he wears a crest
+    Of eagle's feathers on his head,
+    His skin is of a coppery red.
+
+    If you said to him, "You and I
+    Will run and catch a butterfly,"
+    The Indian boy would say, "No! No!
+    I wish to chase the buffalo."
+
+
+
+
+J for Japanese.
+
+
+    The little Japs are rather small,
+    Even their fathers are not tall;
+    They're very fond of parasols,
+    They dress themselves just like their dolls.
+
+    They live beneath the sunniest skies,
+    Their hair is black to match their eyes;
+    Their robes are black to match their hair,
+    And, O! what tiny shoes they wear.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+K for Kaffir.
+
+
+    This Kaffir looks a trifle sly,
+    He smiles and smiles, I wonder why?
+    Perhaps he's playing at a game,
+    Or thinking of his long, long name.
+
+    His name, you know, is Washington
+    Neb-u-chad-nez-zar Solomon
+    Sambo Snowball Timothy Jack
+    Adolphus Rule Britannia Black.
+
+
+
+
+L for Laplander.
+
+
+    I think the Laplander is nice,
+    He lives among the snow and ice;
+    The reindeer drags his sledge for him,
+    And gives him meat and milk to skim.
+
+    His spears are sharp--they shine like steel;
+    He hunts the walrus and the seal.
+    Often, when he has time to spare,
+    He hunts the white or polar bear.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+M for Mexican.
+
+
+    The plucky little Mexican
+    Rides on the pampas like a man;
+    His horse may kick, and plunge, and rear,
+    He does not feel the least bit queer.
+
+    If he should see an old grey goose
+    Or a young turkey running loose,
+    You may be pretty certain that
+    He'd catch it with his lariat.
+
+
+
+
+N for Neapolitan.
+
+
+    The Neapolitan is wise,
+    He plays the pipes for pence, and buys
+    Ice-cream and candy every day
+    To help him on his weary way.
+
+    His tunes are chiefly of one note,
+    He has a sheepskin for a coat,
+    His water-bottle's painted yellow,
+    He is a handsome little fellow.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+O for Odalisque.
+
+
+    O pretty little Odalisque,
+    I know you want to dance and frisk
+    And play at hide and seek with me;
+    And yet, you know, it cannot be,
+
+    Unless--unless, my dear, you choose
+    To put away those curious shoes,
+    Also your coat, and cap, and veil:
+    They'd hang up nicely on a nail.
+
+
+
+
+P for Persian.
+
+
+    The Persian has a funny hat,
+    He often sits upon a mat;
+    He hears the bulbul sing, and roves
+    Through rose-gardens and lemon groves.
+
+    Child, if by any chance you meet
+    A little Persian in the street,
+    Do not be rude and cry "Yah-yah!"
+    But ask him if he's seen the Shah.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+Q for Quakeress.
+
+
+    I like the little Quakeress,
+    She is so quaint; I like her dress,
+    Her very, very plain white bonnet,
+    Her stuff gown with no trimming on it.
+
+    Her hands are pink, and soft, and small,
+    They peep out from her dark green shawl.
+    She lives on milk, and bread, and honey,
+    She must be saving pots of money.
+
+
+
+
+R for Russian.
+
+
+    Russia is noted for its tar,
+    Its leather, and its great, white Czar.
+    A Russian wears his clothes quite loose,
+    And drinks his tea with lemon juice.
+
+    The Russian boys have chubby faces,
+    They play at marbles and run races;
+    The climate sometimes makes them cough,
+    They've names like Shuffski and Poppoff.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+S for Scotch.
+
+
+    The Scotch wear kilts--both boys and men,
+    When they don't know, they "dinna ken."
+    They love the thistle, we the rose,
+    They're fond of oatmeal, kail, and brose.
+
+    In war the Scotch are very bold.
+    Burns was a Scot, who, I am told,
+    Wrote verses and ploughed fields by turns,
+    So every Scot is proud of Burns.
+
+
+
+
+T for Tyrolean.
+
+
+    The Tyrol has a splendid air
+    And mountains, mountains everywhere;
+    The mountains are all tops and sides,
+    You climb them best with ropes and guides.
+
+    The Tyrolean's hat is smart,
+    He yodels and is light of heart;
+    His yodelling is very sweet;
+    His stockings haven't any feet.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+U for United States.
+
+
+    The States are full of mush and pie
+    And houses twenty stories high,
+    Saw-mills and millionaires and bustle;
+    The people there "have got to hustle."
+
+    The business of the States is done
+    Ex-clu-sive-ly by telephone;
+    And that is why the people say,
+    "I guess we're 'cute in U. S. A."
+
+
+
+
+V for Valencian.
+
+
+    Valencia's a little town
+    In Spain. It's dusty and baked brown,
+    And full of dirt and mules and fleas,
+    And all around are orange trees.
+
+    This well-fed boy, as you may see,
+    Has been dressed very carefully;
+    His garments show that he's a Don,
+    He knows that he has got them on.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+W for Welshman.
+
+
+    Taffy, my boy, I've heard with grief
+    That shocking tale about the beef;
+    But Taffy, between me and you,
+    I really don't believe it's true.
+
+    I'm told that there are pretty vales
+    And hills with sheep on them in Wales;
+    O Taffy, Taffy, don't be put on,
+    You can't want beef while you've Welsh mutton.
+
+
+
+
+Z for Zany.
+
+
+    A zany is a kind of clown
+    Who wanders idly up and down,
+    And wags his head, and shakes his bells,
+    And chortles at the tales he tells.
+
+    He'll joke with you in sun or show'r,
+    And keep you laughing by the hour.
+    Some zanies are a trifle mad:
+    Now we have finished--and I'm glad.

+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
