CHARMS OF AN OLD BOOK SHOP

the Hope Of Discovery.
The old book shop in Cripple street was
walled to its dusky ceiling with books.
Books were stacked on the floor, like
split wood, with alleys between. The
long table down the center was piled
with old magazines and the wrecks of
paper-covered novels School arithme-
tics and dead theologies: ANNALS in fad
ed gilt, called "Keepsake' or 'Friend-
ships Offering;;' little leathern nubbins
of books from the last century, that vet
seemed less antique than the ANIMALS,
which counted no more than forty years
so southern and early passing was the
youth of the annual: Bohn's transla-
ttions. the useful and despised gaudy.
glittering prints of the poets and novel
lists; all were crowded together, with
out recognition of caste, in a common
Bohemia.
Finding book sought for in that mvs-
tical chaos seemed to establish a right to
it of first discovery. The pretty girl
who sat in one of the dim windows and
kept the accounts looked Oriental, but
not Hebraic and wore crimson ribbon
in her black hair and at her throat. She
read one Of the ANNALS, or gazed through
the window at Cripple street. A show
case in the other window contained
stamp collections, Hindoo, Chinese and
Levantine coinage.-Scribner's Maya
zine.

For when Liverpool appeals to cold fig

Misrepresentation.

All Of the Republican organs take
special delight in misquoting and mis-
interpreting the language used by
Democratic leaders on every occasion.
AS we move along further in the cam
paign, there will be enough scripture
misQuoted and falsehoods uttered un-
der the guise of truth, to deceive even
the elect. Mr.. Bryan is a man who has
been more misquoted and deliberately
lied about than any ether man in the
country. The fact that nothing can be
urged against him, either as a states
man or man ought to be conclusive
evidence in his favor. Referring to
this matter the Buffalo Evening Times
says:
Some Of the Republican papers are
selling upon Mr.. Bryans latest utter
ance declaring that he is for certain
kind of expansion, an expansion that
has no elements of Imperialism, as an
indication that he is hedging" SO to
speak, on this issue.
There is nothing new In what Mr.
Bryan has recently said. He has de-
clared himself in the same way upon
many occasions before. He is perfect
~ consistent in the matter. He never
was an anti-expansionist in any prop
er sense of the word. But he Away:
has been and always will be an anti
imperialist. And 1t is where expansion
takes on the form Of Imperialism tina
he draws the line"
