BRYAN AN ANARCHIST.

The charge that Bryan is an anar.
chist Is too silly TO notice. Here Is
what Bryan wrote about anarchy lung
before he was nominated. 1t appeared
in the columns OF the Omaha World.
Herald while he was its editor:
Anarchy has no place in this coun.
try, either in the busy walks of life "
in the quiet city OF the dead. Anar.
chy Is an enemy to peace, TO society
and to happiness. 1t is not to be tdl.
Grated in any country. Much less has
it any cause for existence or federation
in this country, ana its friends and
devDtccs cannot Use the sacrcdness N
the grave as Il means for spreading
their unwholesOme doctrines and 10
stir up new strife against the law
that accOrdS to even The teachers Of
arson and assassination a fair md

peers
This docs not sound much like Mr..
Bryan Is an anarchist. 1t is a sensible
~uttcrance and one which every Amer.
lean can fully endorse. There Is moth.
ing in Mr.. Bryan's life to betray the
least suspicion Of anarchy. Anarchy
has M respect for the rights Of otlcrs.
One Of its fundamental principles Is
to tear down what II has taken years
to build up. Mr.. Bryan may be sue

Henry SAID the little wife, as she
took the hand Of her biz husband,
I'm glad that you enjoy your wheel
so much. and that you feel the better
for riding IL. But you are home so
little now. You are of for Il spin in
the morning and | never see you after
dinner until late at night. | don't
know but Gen. Kleigles. the chief OF
police at ST. Petersburg, has done the
right thing
whats that?:'
He requires every cyclist in the
Russian capital to carry a large num-
Der exposed at the back Of his ma
chine, so that when Il scorcher breaks
loose he will be known by reference to
the list. and II there he any suspicious
character riding about he or she be
identified In the same way"
I'D never stand it. Id raise an
army and fight first. The next move
would be to have every married man
carry the license for his matrimonial
venture on his back, and to make a
sandwich of him by requiring him to
have his name and place OF business
or residence spread out in bold type
over his chest. What a glorious cOun.
try OF freedom this would be them"
But it might be just as well, Hen
ry, from my point of view. see Jud-
kins riding by here almost every night
with some lady that is not Mrs. Jud'
kins. She tells me, just us you do,
that business keeps men a good deal
later than it did when times were
better. And then Judkins talks in

''Do | ever-do l ~ neglect you

the sweetest little wife in the world?"
"Not that | know OF, dear. But
VIC haven't the Russian system. Now,
what is tlis?:' and the little wife held
up a dainty handkerchief Of lace with
a delicate odor and tclltale initials in

A farmer in Eastern Pennsylvania
has been converted by experience from
some very common opinions on money.
He did not believe in banks and he
did believe in silver. So he held all
his funds in the form Of silver dollars,
stored them in a keg marked prime
leaf lard" and hid the deposit in his
wagon shed. But a thunder storm
came up one day last week and a shaft
Of lightning took a pcrniciOusly active
part in the demonstration " the me-
~ccssity of one quality in money. 1t
reduced the wagon shed to ashes and
the silver dollars to a sllapelcss mass
OF bullion. AS a result $1,000 or 50 Of
silver was turned into just about half
its face value. Had the coin been Of
gold it would have been worth just
as much after it was melted as before.
This is a highly expensive way OF get
ting a grasp OF the factors Of the
monetary problem, but the man who
learns at the cost OF $500 q lesson will
he likely to remember what he has
paid for II.

BOTS IN HORSES.

| seldom 90 To see a sick horse in the
country. says a veterinary surgeon,
but that some one asks me the ques-
ton:
doctor. do you think he has the
bots A great many peoplc think
the bot is injurious. RVts do not in
the least cause any pai"ser suffering
to the horse.
The female bot fly deposits her eggs
upon the HAIR OF the horse about the
breast and forelegs. In several days
these eggs become ripe then the
slightest warmth aud moisture brings
firth the latent larvae. You can
hatch them in your hand blowing
your breath upon them. A small
worm thus makes its appearance.
You can readily see how easily then
the horse licks himself, the bot thus
being Matched, and on the tongue or
lips Of the horse, you SEE. it is easy for
the bot to pass to the stomach and
lives there, by absorption, Il year. lie
is then grown: he lets go his hold,
passes out, bursts open and energies
as the bot-fly. In short, this is his
round OF existence. His life in the
horse is merely passive, and does no
harm unless lie should become so
numerous that lie might Obstruct the
passage of food. This last is very, very
rare.
No matter what disease a horse dies
of, the stomach often partially digests
quickly and then ruptures. Now, some
men in opening such eases and finding
the stomach ruptured and bots in the
abdominal cavity, look no farther for
the cause Of death, but Jump at the
conclusion, "bots have eaten through
the stomach"
There are few horses that do not
have bots in considerable number. /
have seer almost a quart of them in
Il large horses stomach, and lie had
never shown any i'll effects from them.

it is now proposed to substitute for
it, as both bad, and on tie hope OF
the one side and the fears of the other
side as both cXtravagant.
"But you are right in believing me

A great many physicians %dcprccatc
the wearing OF mourning fer the
dead. They say that it can be no
consolation to the departed, and that
heavy, somber black gowns and wells
are extremely unhealthy for the liz
ing to wear. The ontw..rd signs Of
grief keep the loss pcrpetually before
Gne. The custom OF wearing mourn
ing is, however, too firmly established
ever To be oblitcratcd. Even in less
civilized countries than ours it OBJ
tains. Indeed, the Arabs are said to
mourn with Il yigor and thOr0ughness
that 0utshincs even that of Partisan
widow, who had her bicycle painted
black to match her somber garments.
Among the Arabian women, when
they are obliged to go into mourning,
they not only wear black clothing,
but stain the hands and feet black,
for eight days. They drink no milk
during these days on the ground that
the hue would not harni0nizc with
their mental gloom. 1t Is hard to see
how they could further add to the
melancholy OF the situation unless
they drank black tea during the Pc

Woman is a human being, seeking,

she is "a woman, the worst thing you
