THE LADIES favor painting
their churches, and therefore we
urge every Minister to remember
we give a liberal quantity of the
Longman & Martinez Paint toward
the painting.
Wears and covers like gold.
Don't pay $3.50 a gallon for Lin
seed Oil (worth 60 cen,s) which you
do when you buy other paints in a
can with a paint label on it.
S & 6 make II, therefore when
you want fourteen gallons of paint,
buy only eight of L & M aud mix
six gallons pare Llnseed Oil with it,
aud thus get paint at less than S1.20
per gallon.
Many houses are we'll painted
with tour gallons Of L & Nj. and
three gallcns OF Linseed Oil mixed
therewith.
These Celebrated Paints are sold
by o. J. & B. B. FORREST.

BRYAN'S ATTITUDE.

II is a curious fact that Republican
bosses everyWhard regard the out
breaks of Mr.. Bryan as a sure fore
runner of Republican victory. They as
sumo that Bryan is still an important
factor in ne Democratic party; that
he will exert strong influence in shap-
ing the party's policy and probably die
tate the partys nominee. With such
a prospect conlrcnting the enemy,
therefore, they have net the least
dsubt about the outcome of the forth
coming campaign. 1t is also fact
that Bryan recent speeches warning
the Democrats that they must re-af-
firm the Kansas City platform and
nominate a silver man for president
have contributed generously to the so
luton of intricate party problems in
behalf of the president.
Thousands of Republicans who are
opposed t. the president on the broad
ground that he is unsafe and were
ready to give their support to the DEM
oeratic candidate. presuming that he
was sound on the money question.
took alarm at Bryan's threats and. as.
sumins that he spoke for majority of
his party, ceased their activities.
They had no means of knowing that
Bryan was without substantial fol
lowing in the Democratic party and
that he would control Caly the dele
gates of mis- own state. Nebraska, and
that even these would not be within
his reach if the conservative Demc.
Gratis of the state cared t., make a
fight to break his power.
No man ever started out upon no
iltleal crusade with Sc little ammuni-
tlon as Bryan has In his preser. ef-
fort to revive interest in the dead is
sues of 1896 and 1900 Democratic
leaders who during the recent meet
ing of the national committee Were
willing t. concede him sufficient fol
lowing in the convention to make his
handling serious problem are now
confident that they completely Over
estimated his strength and poweY.
They have no doubt about the ability
of the conservative forces Of the party
to c,ntrol the convention.

CONVICT LABOR.

the mere closely the subject is STUDIED

that il is ~ a tenahfe objection.
The convict hoiug admitted an en-

society is Che cnomy of the convict. He
IS punished hy society, not for the pur-
pose of wreakiug vindictive retriba-

that man confined without employ

state owes it to the convict as vel

President Roosevelt is new so con-

acclamatlon at Chicago that he is ar
ranging TO receive notification of the
conventions action at Jackson. Mich
ON the occasion of the celebration of
the founding OF the Republican party
next summer. The presidents con.
fidence appears to be amply justified
by recent happenings The collapse
of the Hanna movement in Ohio, the
tentative candidacy Il Senator Fair
banks fer vice president, the authori-
tative assurance from New York that
the delegates representing that State
will be instructed to support the preai-
dent and the prospects that opposition
elsewhere Will disappear-these and
other things combine to give the pres
ident and his friends unhoundcd con-
fidence
1t is among the probabilities that
Ohio will follow the example of lndi-
ana and New York and instruct for
Roosevelt. Senator Hanna has been in
formed by his lieutenants who have
been keeping in touch with develop

chance of revolt against the presii-
dent has been swept away.
The closing # the fight has aot

left a trail of bitterness and deep re

Latest Ideas in Monograms, Addresses
and Crests and Paper.

Written for The Evening Star.
The conservative woman clings to pure
white stationery and for her the only nov
city from season to season is in the style
Of envelopes and size of the paper. The
latter is now rather small and square. with
oblong envelopes showing the oxford flap.
The size of monogram varies. Some have
the monogram in the center of the paper,
others have their address under the mono
gram, and still third method calls for the
monogram on the left side and the address
on the right. A few women who like to do
things that seem to stamp them as having
individuality use the entire name across
the sheet at the top.
Crests steadily gaining in favor.

but that is the stationer secret, and he
won't tell. Incidentally, crests are done in
the original shades of enamel and are very
expensive.
Summer girls insist upon something
in stationery, whether it is in entirely good
form or not and the manufacturers have
me- this demand with some odd effects.
For instance there is the English TWILL

all around it. The flap is rounded and the
lower part of the envelope is in two sec
lions, edged with the blue. This comes in
paler blue and military gray.

it with a small-bladed knife. In reality this
is only the mode of finish, and there are no
holes in it. 1t is not an easy paper upon
which to write; it comes i'll green, white
and blue.
The hemstitched papers and the dotted
Swiss finish so much in vogue last summer
are still on the market. but the low figure
at which they sold suggests that they
are a bit out of date.
The summer girl who has been invited TO
spend a month with friends at a resort or
in the suburbs need have no anxiety about
ordering cards. Calling cards are little
used in summer. the more conventional
mode of calling being dropped during the
hot weather. She will need cards perhaps.
