WILLIAM HOPE HARVEY.

and practiced for five years in OabelI
county. In 1876 he moved to Cleveland.
While there he married Anna r. Halli-
day, daughter of John r. Halliday of
Gallipolis, o.
Fol eight years after this Mr.. Harvey
praoticed law, two years of the time
being spent in Chicago, the rest in Gal
lipolis, o. Then in 1884 his hea 18th
gave way and he went to Colorado. He
invested the money made from his law
business in various parts of the west,
and became interested in the silver Qtues-
ton through attending the TRANSMIT ssis-
sippi congresses. The interest deepeu ned,
and gradually he found himself mailing
n profound study Of the financial pltob-
lem. He says he say that the politicians
were not handling it right, and he de-
termined to educate the people at large.
Since then this has been his life work
His first experiment in the ednca-
tional line was to go to Chicago and
start a weekly paper, through the me
dunn of which he hoped to set his views
before the people. He admits tn at he
found this plan impractical. He stop
ped the paper and told his readers in
the last number chat he would i.ncor-
porate his ideas in a book. Then he
wrote "Coin's Financial School," This
was a bold experiment.. MIR. Harvey
says that in the publication and circu-
lation of this book he not only spent all
his own money, but ran in debt So, 900
before he began to get any return.
But after awhile the book began to
sell. Slowly at first the returns came
in, but gradually they increased in vol
ume until the presses were turning out
the books almost by the carload. More
than 1000, 900 copies were sold, and
the book is still selling.
Later Mr.. Harvey wrote the "Tale
of Two Nations, " which he describes
as being intended "for novel readers
who would not read plain facts. 3"
"Coin's Financial School Up to Date"
was written in answer to several pam
phlet criticisms of his first book.
In personal appearance Mr.. Harvey
is a slender, why man of average stat
ure. His features express the possession
of a great deal of nervous force and de-
termination. When he talks, he uses a
low pitched, we'll modulated tone,
which is never raised even in the hot
test discussion. He would scarcely be
taken for an enthusiast. His hearers are
always impressed with the fact that he
is very much in earnest.

Something About the a Who Win
Support Bimetallism In the Cam
paign of o
The selection of William Hope Harvey
as the general manager of the plan to
raise a great campaign fund, to be used
in the interests of bimetallism during
the presidential struggle of 1900, brings
again into prominence a man who has
had a brief but remarkable public ca
reer. AS the author of COINS Finan-
cial School" MI. Harvey several years
ago sprung from obscurity into national
fame. In his new position he promises
to be largely in the public eye for the
next two years.
The exact nature of the duties under
taken by Mr.. Harvey seems to have been
somewhat misunderstood. 1t is officially
denied that he has been made the gen.
eral manager of the Democratic ma
tional committee. His Office is defined
as that of general manager Of the ways
and means committee which represents
the combined bimetallists of the q
try. AS the business head of the organi-
cation he will attempt to raise a great
fund to carry on the elaborate campaign
which has been mapped out.
While Mr.. Harvey's name is better
known throughout the country than
that Of most men who have never held
high political places, he Is personally
almost an unknown character. Almost
every one can tell you that "Ooin"
Harvey, as he is universally known, is
a Chicago lawyer who has written a
great deal of free silver literature, but
few can add any details.
AS a matter of fact "Coin's Finan-
cial School" which was his first sue
cess in this direction, was by no means
his first effort along this line. 1t repre-
sented the rewarding climax Of several
years of similar but unsuccessful effort.
MI. Harvey came into the world Aug.
16, 1851, in Buffalo, a little village on
the Big Kanawha river in Putnam
county, w. Va. His father, Colonel
Robert T. Harvey, was a Virginian,
and is now living in Huntington, W.
Va. His mother was Anna M. Howe Of
Owensborough, KY. His early life was
passed on a farm. He went to the usual
country school, and had two years at
the Buffalo academy. Then for three
months he attended Marshall college in
Cabell county, ". Va.
When he was 16 and II years old, he
taught school three months of each
year. Then he studied law, was admit

with the unusual beauty Of the music
and at the close of the service expressed
a desire to see the organist. Verdi ap-
peared, and the priest recognized him
as the pupil whom be had sought 10

"Whose music were you playing?"

Although | am not n Christian
Scientist, | believe with them TINT it
is Il very poor plan to continually
talk to tho children as if thoy we're
in danger Of becoming i'll. That tho
mind has wonderful control over tho
ailments of tho body has hcon proven
beyond dispute, and it is no longer
considered sign Of superstition to
boliovo That we'll person may think
himsolf sick until his body is really
in II discussed condition.
Tho mother who is always on tho
lookout for danger or disease is not
infreqnontly the ono who is often
called upon to net as nurse to ono of
hor own family. TO be sure, sho
can console herself with tho thought
that hor family is moro susceptible
than othors, and that it is not as bad
Ms it might havo bcon had sho been
less watchfnl; but that by no moans
proves tho cnsc. Ii is inst M onsy
to assume that tho tronbr camo be-
cause it was expected.
Thoro arc mothcrs whose boys
havo boen known to go camping for
week, and return we'll and hearty;
yet if ono of those boys happened to
go to sleep on porch, or to sit in Il
draught, or to get wet feet whilo
hunting frogs, or to 10 any of tho
hundred things boys delight in, the
mother would be absolutely suro ho
would have severe cold, unless sho
dosed him in time, and even her
many remedies might not ward it off.
lIo would actually have II cold, and
without disobeying half as many
laws OF health us were broken with
out Thought, and without i'll conse-
qnences, while camping.
Anxious mothers expect too much,
Of their lovcd onoa-thoy expect
thom to bo sick in season and out of
season! Tho mombers of their fnm-
lilies aro like tho pot chickens that
have been cnddled until their feath
ers can't grow, and every disoaso has
chance ut thom. From habyhood
they ar" taught 10 1.-Two in constant
fear of illness or calamity, every
symptom calls for n dose Of medi-
cine, for unless prompt measures aro
taken, it may load to something!
A child is, or should be like any
other growing animal With plenty
OF wholesome food, plenty Of pure
air, plenty of sloep and a fair amount
OF exercise it will thrive. But if
kept in close, lily ventilated rooms,
fed on rich food, givon candy bo-
tween meals, and it's brain trained
beyond tho power of tho body, there
must, Of course, bo constant vigilance
to meot tho natural robollion of the
abused. body.
1t is to be hoped that tho time
will como when there will be law
to tho effect that every child must
ho sent into tho country for at least
six months during the year, until he
has reached his twenty first birth
day. When thorc, ho should bo di-
vested of shoes and stockings, and
every other garmont he wants to
leave off, and allowed to cat and
slo"n ont of doors, whonover he
pleascs. Let him bo az noar like a
young savage as his nature prompts
him to be. He'll got ovor 1t during
tho following six months, when he is
ut his stndics, if his mother is the
sort of woman she ought to be.
