Venice's great impression is its street
life-sO brilliant, so highly cOiOred, so
unlike that of any other city. The COM
mOn-place shows of the guide-bOOks are
and disappointing; the prisons, dun
geOns, Bridge of Sighs and so forth. The
school girl glamour thrown over these
places is mainly traceable to ByrOn's sem
timental wash of verse The unbalanced
poets judgment on the historic events of
Venice is about as weak and vicious as his
Judgment on other matters and his ignO-
rance of fact is appalling. The daily pie
ture of Venice, however, is something OF
which one never tires and which changes
ever with the hour. GOndola life is some
thing deliCiOusly dreamy and luxurious
in the soft light of day or under the sheen
of moon and starlight. Let dark night
come and rain, however, and these long,
narrow, deep black boats, seen mysteri-
Ously from the faint point of light on
their PROV take to themselves the likeness
of floating cOffins steered by the shades.
The effect is indescribably sepuIchral.
You seem to be alone in the waters of
Hades among the spirits. The gOndOlas
are all of a funeral black, with black dra-
peries over the dark cabin. Many CEN
turies ago a Venetian law ordered this
pattern and color, for what reason l do
change, and the gOndOlas are all black
and ghOstly to this day. The streets are
narrow and blaze with light. Their mar
rowness-sOmetimes not over three feet
makes a very little light serve to bril-
| liantly illuminate them, and the jets in
| the shop windows, kept open till late at
night keep them bright and blazing al
most without the outdoor lamps.
! Through them the people surge in con-
| slant streams-all nations, all classes, all
| colors. You study the world, but even
the Venetians themselves present some
! strong contrasts, for they in time are
| made up of the blood of many people
One striking contrast, which you soon
note, is that the Venetian men as body
are dark, their women blonde. The sounds
too, are pOlyglOtta, and everything is in
| ternatiOnal. 1t was my first sight, for
instance, of Greek money which received
| several times in change.

What a Democratic victory in OhIO
Means.

MGAASs
Financially it would mean a suspension /
of sDecie payments and destruction of
the rapidly returning business prosperl- |
ty of the country.
The withdrawal of 1926, ,OOO, 900 of Ma
tiouaI Bank currency that is taxable for
State purposes, and the substitution OF
1926, ,000, 900 of nOn-taXaDle greenDacks.
The arrangement of $466, GOO, of capital
invested in National Bank stock, by a
repeaI of the National Banking law.
The withdrawal from the business of
the country of $3.50, 600 600 owned by these
banks, in order to wind up the business.
The organization, in the place of these
banks, of hundreds of private State banks,
wherein the riches and safaty of the de-
positOrs will be comparatively unpro-
tected.
The placing in the hands of irresponsi-
BILE Congressman the power to regulate
and control all prices and profits by in
creasing or decreasing the quantity and
value Ofthe currency in which business
! is transacted.
The destruction of the National credit
! by partial or entire TepudiaEiOn of the
| Nations obligations (nearly every State
now under complete control of the Demo-
cratic party has repudiated part or all
of the States ObligatiOns).
Politically it would mean the triumph
of State Rights over Nationality and the
Union.
The control of the Government by the
men who sought its overthrow during
the rebellion.
The end of all free elections and the fu-
tuTe control of the country through the
potent power of the shot gun ranger and
the tissue ballots of the red shirt riders.
The evasion or nullification of the con
stitutiOnal amendments destroying slaV-
! cry, comforting the elective franchise, ol
, prohibiting the payment for slaves or tht
rebel debt.
In short, a Democratic victory now
: would mean an abandonment of all thu
. political and financial triumphs of thu
: past nineteen years, by which the Ma
: tiOn's right to exist was fully established
= by the armed forces of the Government
, and the National integrity was fully win
:, dicated by a sacred fulfillment of all it
} obligations.

visited Chicago, June, 1873, called on you, hav
ing very little hope of deriving help from your
treatment. We were inspired with hope by the
Skillful manner in. which your thorough eXamina-
ton was conducted, and the satisfactory eXplana-
ton with which you closed your diagnosis. My
wife determined to take your medicines in accord
ance with your plain and practical directions
She began to use the Arabian Milk Cure and Ara

respiration became easy, the soreness of the chest
was relieved and all pain removed, she began to

About seven miles from town they were sur rounded by crowd of Mexicans, wlIo quietly but determinclly took Dell McCrum5 and hung him.
