There will be five tickets on the
official ballot in Ohio this year, one
less than last year. The Union Re
form party has no ticket this year
and is probably dead for all time. AS
that party was an off-shoot of the
Prohibition party it is probable that
its followers will this year return to
their first love. The five tickets are
the Republican, Democrat, Prohibi-
tion, Socialist Labor and Socialist.
The first three qualified by conven-
tions and the last two by petition.

large gathering of men Darius wept

Johnson used to be affected to tears
by the crowds of a London street.
Such concourse as that of the Grand
Army of the Republic, recently hold

ing. These men were fighting men
forty years ago. A whole generation
has grown up since their deeds welded
the Union into a solidarity that all
sections now revere. That they are
bowed with age, broken by hardship,
crippled by wounds is not to be Won

remnants of the greatest army of the

Those That Cost 90 Cents Apiece and
 Sell for $2.
 Most of the cheap oil paintings" said the picture dealer, 'are done by Italians on the east side in New York. They work in their living rooms, and most of the paintings have several half grown children as assistants. The wholesale dealers have number of such artists on their books and agree to take all they can do, the firm sup plying the canvas, but not the paints. Of course the pictures are. done rap- idly
 "An expert will range six or eight canvases on a shelf that is used in- stead of an easel and generally has a colored print tackled up above as copy Then he proceeds to rapidly block in the subject. < favorite scene Is a mountain lake with a ruined temple in the foreground. He will indicate the lake, the sky and the mountains with out attempting any details and pass on to the next canvas. By the time he is through with the last one the paint on the first is dry. and he proceeds in the same order with the trees, clouds and tempIe.' Meanwhile his helper is put ting in all the small accessories, and by the time daylight wanes the row will be done. By this system of work ing the artist does not have to be con- tinually changing his brushes. and he loses no time in waiting on the drying of pigment.
 we sell such picture as he would turn out at about S2, including frame, the net cost of the canvas to the deal CT being in the neighborhod of 90 cents. The workman gets 40 cents apiece for his paintings, and most of them average s250 a day year in and year out. know one man who makes just double that amount, but he has two clever children. As you may see, some of the pictures are by no means devoid of merit in spite of their slap dash handling. In fact, good many of the 40 cent artists occupy their leisure in doing artistic things which they may or may not be able to sell The others bring in a steady income and keep the pot boiling.
