A FEW months ago the Rep ublicans
told US that free silver coinage was a
dead issue. Now they claim it lie the
one great issue of the campaign. They
are afraid to face the new issues
brought about by the i'm periaIistic ten
denotes of the their party. The issue, as
Bryan has clearly stated il, is money,
imperialism and trusts. The Republic
cans cannot dodge the new Issues by
claiming l6 to as the only question TO
he settled.

THE latest political manifesto Of State
Auditor Sinclair hardly caused a ripple
OF excitement among the silver forces in
attendance at the fusion conventions.
Most Of them looked upon it as did Mil
to'' Bsrto, the delegate from Hauser,
when he remarked that the Silver Re-
publicans had gotten rid OF heavy load
and the Republicans had loaded up.

Once when General Butler was in

insinuated that the member who was
occupying the floor was transgressiRg

said the member in reproachful tones,
you divided your time with me-" Il

warrior. ''but / did not divide eternity
with you"
But perhaps Buffers most savage re-
tort was made in political convention,
in which distinguished Unitarian di-
vine, | think it was James Freeman

subject of candidates was being dis
cussed this clergyman announced that
If certain nomination was made he

A CHILD KISS.

She gave me kiss, a dear, sweet kiss,
Twas only by girl of ten;
She little knew
That when she grew
She would not share them so with men.
When at last the ripper years have come
And Cupid's form appears,
And the favored dart
Strikes at the heart
Which must last through months and years,
Perhaps it may turn out to be,
As others have done before,
The charm forget
In wild regret,
Repent and sigh for days of yore,
With children near to hear the blame
On each as it may chance 70 fall,
Not words so dear,
But words that scar
God forgive us for it ALL
For such is life to many a wife,
And mistakes are made all the while,
But give me the bliss
OF dear, sweet kiss
From the innocent lips of a child.

JeweIry Marked by Tiny Numbers

On every piece of worthy jewelry
there will be found a series of numbers
so fine that a glass is needed to COR

there to protect the owner in event Of
loss. 1t is unkind to say it, but pawn
brokers have also adopted the number
ing scheme to protect themselves from
thieves. Every pawnbroker knows
where to look for these significant
numbers, and in the case of rare bit
Of jewelry its travels from the factory
