hailed with pleasure by thrifty house
wives, anxious to get the accumulated
rags out of the way. And as he gave
"tuppence" a pound for white rags, and
a "ha'penny" pound for colored, and
paid in cask, the money they received
for them was not by any means de-
spis5d. One morning, while on his
rounds, Dick called at a certain farm
house. His knock was answered by
Sally, the farm servant, a girl that he
had seen on former visits to the farm,
but with whom ne had no further ac-
quaintance. She told him that the
"missus" was away, and that she didn't
know what there was to sell. Now
Sally was not tidy girl at any time,
and on this particular morning her
dress and apron looked as though they
rightly belonged to Dicks stock-ih-
trade. She was a lanky, angular girl,
and most people would have thought
her very unattractive. But Dick evil
IDENTIFY thought otherwise, for his next
question was, What would'st tina gay,
if was to offer to take thee rags an
bones an all. an marry thee Just
what answer Sally made to this queer
way Of popping the question, is not
recorded, but its purport may be guess
ed from the fact that their marriage
banns were called shortly after, and in
due time they were married in the VIII
lage church.

The scenes have usually been the crea-

THE editor of the New York journal,
a strong free silver paper, has the fol-
lowing to say of W. Jennings Bryan in
a recent issue:
"Everything now points to the re-
nomination of Mr.. Bryan in 1900. 1t is
the knowledge of that which causes
Democrats of my kind to deplore that
as he comes to be better known, to be
subject to critical examination when
men are not excited by a political cam
vass, he grows smaller rather than big
ger, and instead of being a man of lofty
and simple and utterly sincere mind,
appears to be revealing himself merely
as a superior specimen of the smart
lawyer-politician of the corn-fed middle
west, "a class with which those who
know congress are familiar"
This certainly does not look as If
Tammany and the New York Democra-
cy were friendly to this perennial west
ern candidate.
