to please his wife, who has again Join.

it is announced, will be his travelling
companion during the remaining days
of the campaign. In introducing this
feature. Mr.. Bryan confirms the i'm
preston that he possesses something
OF the actors temperament and likes
to cater to the emotional side Of the
people. He Is a public entertainer
rather than a public instructor, and as
such he pleases the crowd. whether

BRYAN's LOVE FOR LABOR.
A Sample of 1t Given in a Committed
Room Of Congress.

William Jennings Bryan Is now call
ed upon to explain some peculiar terms
Of endearment which he used toward
the workingmen, whom he is calling
during this campaign his eloved
friends. 1t appears that while the pop
ocraltic candidate was a member Of con-
gress and one OF the ways and means
committee to cut down the wages OF
workingmen by the framing of a free
trade bill, the committee was waited
upon by a delegation from the Window
Glass Workers association to protest
against a reduction of the duty on
glass. Mr.. Bryan seems to have OBJ
jected to this effort on the part Of the
workingmen to save themselves from
poverty, for while Sellers Mckee, a
glass manufacturer, started to explain
the benefit OF a protective tariff, Mr..
Bryan explained in his frank. loving
boyish way: "Oh, you manufacturers
are robbers" One Of the members of
the workers committee turned to Mr..
Bryan indignantly at this remark. and
asked: IF the manufacturers are rob-
beers, what are WEI" This was the re-
ply of the mar who now expresses such
effusive love for the workingmen. WILL
lam Jennings Bryan: you are public
beggars, and so is everybody else that
asks for a protective tariff that will
benefit him."
MI. Bryan was asked about this mat
ter at a public meeting In Wheeling the
other day. and in his characteristic way
he evaded the question. Now State

mittee, all Of whom heard Bryan make
use OF these foul words, not only reit-
crate the charge. but express a willing
ness to face him and make afadavit to
the fact that the language quoted was
used by him in their presence. We can
readily believe the charge, even In the
absence Of a%ffidavits. for the false
prophet of the Platte Is now engaged
in the effort Of making the working
man a beggar in fact as we'll as in

row US out to the steamer in your little
boat? You know We hope she has brought
the glad news that California has been
made State"
"Yes, yes, of course l can." answered
the boy before the words had fairly left
Mr.. Editors mouth.
'Then come quick before the other
newspaper fellows get down. Oh, do
hurry, Billy"
The boy, as eager as they, soon pushed
the boat into the waite. and in another
moment they were off, the boat crowded
to its utmost. The men sat with legs very
much doubled up and looked as if any
moment they might lose their balance and
tumble into the water, while the boy, with
flashing eye and heaving breast, managed
his oars with the skill of man.
A hero he was, indeed, in the eyes of his
sister, who stood on the sand watching
him fondly and waving her handkerch ief
to give him good cheer as the little boat
rocked and dipped over the waves. At
last the steamer was reached. After a few
hurried words of explanation the impor-
tant papers which conveyed the longed-for
tidings were thrown into the arms of the
happy men in BIlly's little boat.
Then for shore again Hard as the
brave young boy worked he couldn't make
his boat speed fast enough to satisfy the
impatient editors, but not once would be
allow his oars to be handled by other than
himself.
When they reached the shore they were
greeted with shouts and cheers from the
crowds, which by this time had gathered
to watch the steamer. Throwing hand

shown such pluck and nerve and telling

Come, little ones, and let US slowly wander
Through the green woods where quiet shad-
ows tall,
Where the warm sunlight sits in golden
patches
From nigh above and through the branches
tall.
Here cold stream runs swift through moss
and brscken,
Dark as the stones that form its narrow way,
Save where the sunlight falls in shafts of
yellow
To light the fishes at their darting play.
There gray squirrel chatters to its fellow.
Beyond the ferns that bend in pale green
sheaves
A baby rabbit peers among the bramble
Of running vines and drifts of Wind-swept
leaves.
Now shadows deepen, and the way grows
wilder:
All sounds seem far away-the birds are still;
Till branches part and sunshine soft and
mellow
Makes bright hollow meath the wooded
hill.
Here IN the silence, sale from rough winds
blowing,
A tiny lake lies smooth and sweetly cool;
A single lily blooms in white perfection
And casts its shadow on the quiet pool.
wandering bee comes buzzing o'er the
water,
AIazy turtle climbs upon a stone,
A tired bird has perehed above the shallow
To rest moment from the distance flown.
Soon will dim shadows fall, the day departing,
The blue sky darken and the stars appear,
The pale moon rise to light the shining water,
And down the slopes will come the thirsty
deer.

Wl6A DICK.
By Alice Gale Woodbury..

Dick is Just 16. 1 am ten years his
senior and his uncle. / am afraid do
not look my age, for l have noticed that
Dick does not seem to treat me with any
particular reverence. However, We are
great friends.
Dick has arrived at the cigarette stage.
suspect he has been experimenting for six
months or more; yet he has never men,
toned the fact, and we have just found it
out. When l asked him why he hadn't
told of his new accomplishment, he re-
piled that he had observed the odor was
more or less penetrating, and he left the
rest TO our imagination. Then he pulled
out a pretty cigarette-case and offered me
its contents.
"Thanks; not any," said as politely as
possible, adding: al have no ambition to
make life more luxurious than it now is
for the family undertaken or the City Coro-
ner"
"Oh, stuffp exclaimed Dick.
EXACTLY" replied. Miserable stuff,
at thatr'
~ mean it's all poppycockp
Poppy cock isn't in the dictionary -
I replied, "but if it means poison, why, 1
agree"
You know what mean," rejoined my
nephew; al mean you're talking nom
sense-and bosh-iust because it's the fad
to preach to boys against cigarette
smoking. / don't know why; 1 suppose
because parents don't like to have their
sons begin, and because mothers dislike to
have their curtains perfumed with
smoke"
take out your watch, Dick" said I.
"Open the inner case and blow your
smoke upon the works"
Not much!" objected Dick. I'm no
idiot. Do you think want to ruin my
watch7"
$50 you think that proceeding would
ruin your watch, do your Well. it would
do tar less harm to the works OF your
watch than the same process would to the
works of your body-by that I mean the
tissues, and especially the lungs. 1t will
use up your lungs, to say nothing of your
life. If you really wish to accomplish
this end l should advise you to start in on
another poison. The result will be the
same, with possibly less suffering"
'Look here" exclaimed Dick, "Iet's
talk straight truth. You know r could
smoke cigarettes until doomsdav and not
even become an invalid if 1 took care of
my health in other ways-now don't

mo, 1 couldn't be sure of it at all. In
fact, IN your particular case everything is
against your theory. There may be some
