Well, here is the way to do so.
Take large serapbook and letter
the pages alphabetically. Then
paste ON the blank pages the por-
traits of noted persons, portraits
that you will obtain from time to
time by cutting them out Of newspa-
pers and magazines. Magazine pic
lures are always the best, but often
one cannot procure the desired pic
lures from that source and must b
satisfied with those from the daily
papers. Leave only the name of the
person under the picture. cutting
away all other printed matter. Place
the pictures in alphabetical order or
as nearly SO as it is possible. for this
will enable you to turn readily to
any picture you may wish to refer
10.
The greatest care should be taken
in trimming the edges of the por-
traits nicely and pasting them in the
pages with due regard to their re-
spective sizes.

The catfish is slippery, gooey
kind of fish that inhabits all kind:

looks like large head with body
and tail stuck on TO it. Catfish fire.
ouently attain the size of IA good, big
schoolboy and are quite irritable and
ferocious. They have sharp jIggers
on their sides and elsewhere with
which they can jab YOU like every
thing. When you suddenly pull Il
small catfish with large head and
a yellow underside out of the water
and flop it on the bank il sometimes
makes a noise like ''glug," which is
catfish for swearing. Once there was
a man who lived on the Mississippi
river. A large catfish had broken all
his lines and swallowed all his
hooks. He made big iron hook,
fastened it TO the end of a long
leather strap, took porterhouse
steak for bait and caught the cat
fish. 1t weighed 2l4E pounds. He
told another man about it and the
other man told father. II il had
weighed 2l5 pounds he would have
said so. The works of creation are
wonderful. Let us always be honest

Lincoln who listened to the able and
eloquent oration delivered by the Rev.
DIR. s. Parker Cadman of Brooklyn,
N. T., at Epworth League park on
July 4th were surprised when the dis
tingnished orator opened his address
by referring to Lincoln as a. city
whose fame was worldwide as the
home of one of the foremost citizens
of the William j. Bryan. The
distinguished pulpit orator OF the City
Of Churches assured his hearers that
the recent groundswell of opinion to-
ward Bryan was general and hearty
in New York and the East, moreso,
he thought, than in the West. He
predicted that the future contained
still greater fame and renown for the
home of Mr.. Bryan, whom, with Presi-
dent Roosevelt, he said, stood In the
front rank of American citizenship
and craftsmanship
1t must be borne in mind that as a
railroad and political center Lincoln
is the home of many men whose sue
cess in life and whose fortunes finan-
cial and political were due primarily
10 railroad favoritism, as a conse-
quence of which the Lincolnites Of
wealth and power, with but few ex-
ceptions, saw Bryan through railroad
glasses. And, as the pampered pets
of railroad favoritism controlled the
machinery of the democratic as we'll
as of the republican parties Of the
state, Mr.. Bryan found himself, ON
the very Threshold of his career in
a community, the most influential
members of which were STEPPED in a
binding, venomOus and unrelenting
prejudice against him, engendered by
his antagonism of the source of their
favors, which, in the case of reub-
leans, was augmented by partisan
bias, and in the case of democrats, by
jealousy of his growing influence in
his party. But, the young giant was
undismayed, and the growth of his
popularity has kept pace with time.
The city of Lincoln has grown in
population also, so that today Mr.. Bry
an is about to be accorded in his
home city the long delayed recog
milton of merit that is his due.

Mr.. Bryan was right in 1896. The
silver question was then acute, and
it may become so again in the not
distant future But, for the present
and for a few years to come prospects
for an adequate money supply from
the gold mines alone are reassuring.
1t must be borne in mind, however,
that should the future production of
gold fall below present estimates and
the supply prove inadequate to main
tain the worlds price levels, that the
cry for the coinage of silver would
again be heard throughout the civil
lied nations with greater force than
ever as the means of keeping the
wheels of industry in motion, which
has never been done in the past. and
which can not be done, while univer-
sal prices are being forced downward
through the inadequacy Of money sup
ply.
Therefore, while Mr. Bryan will let
the money question rest and devote
his energies to the solution of the
questions of monopoly and taxation,
he will not in apy 6aoroe no influenced
by the Glamour of the ignorant about
the silver question. He has nothing
to take back, and the silver question
can rest until conditions impart to
it again interest and force. Mr.. Bry-
an is g. statesman and not political
time server, and his true character is
becoming known and appreciated by
the American people.

When the republican party was
young the party leaders sought out
every democrat of good character and
standing that was known to entertain
views of harmony with their own, and
on the republican ticket. In this way
they undermined the democratic or
ganization in the New England states
and built up their own. The recruits
they thus secured were of great value
to them and have constituted the
backbone of the party in several states
for a generation.

democrat than the traditional demo-

James M. Guffy, the representative
Of the democratic national committee
in the state of Pennsylvania is multi
millionaire reputed to be Of Standard
Oil utilization. He opposed the nomi-
nation of Lewis Emery in the demo-
cratic state convention. Mr. Emery
is also a millionaire and an independ-
ent producer and refiner of oil who
has been the most implacable antag-
onist of Standard Oil and it's methods
for more than twenty-five years. Mr.
Emery has been a life long republican
and accepted the nomination for the
gOvernorship at the hands of organiza-
ton in Pennsylvania known as the
Lincoln republicans. The democratic
state convention has just endorsed his
nomination This is as it should be,
because the republicans of Pennsyl-
vania who separate themselves from
the main body and oppose it in the
name of Lincoln and honesty are the
men who must be relied upon to make
the democratic majority in the state
in the future. When the rank and
