BRYAN TALKS OF FINANCE
Situation Now and in 1893 Different
He Says-Not In Favor of
Asset Currency.


Omaha, Neb., Nov. 2.-William Jen-
nlngs Bryan, in Omaha, gave the fol-
lowing interview ON the business and
financial conditions: II do not look for
any prolonged trouble in the business
world. Conditions which made a pan
ic and depression in 1893 are entirely
different now. Then prices were fall
ing because of q restricted money sup
ply. Now we are in the midst of
tremendous gold production which
gives an abundant money supply and
maintains prices so that business is
brisk"
'Then you do not think the present
bank trouble shows the need of an
emergency or asset currency?"
Not by any means. On the other
hand l think it presents a strong ar
gument against an asset currency.
Suppose, for instance, we had been
using an asset currency during the
past year. and in addition to the pres
ent trouble the people had distrust
about the money? That would make
matters so much the worse. AS it is
now there is no doubt about the quail
ity of our money"

webater and His Tenant.

Daniel Webster once became the
owner Of some land in New Hamp-
shire, with buildings thereon. He left
the tenant who was there when the
premises were conveyed to him in pos.
session. One summer few years later
as he and his wife were iourneying in
the vicinity of the farm they decided
to take look at it. He found an aged
woman in charge. She said in reply to
questions that the place belonged to n
lawyer down In Boston named Web
stcf.
What rent do You pay?" asked the
amused owner
'Rcnt!" she exclaimed. 81 don't pay
any rent. 1t is had enough to live
here without having TO pay for it, and
If he don't fix up the house soon I'll

An Organized uolann

An English Christmas isn't saen-
gerfest; It's a begglngfest. The band
plays, but it plays with one hand
while the other is out for coin. The
boys and men sing Christmas hymns
and then take n collection, and the
moon may lie shining, but you can't
see 1t through the fog. Some of the
railway stations are decorated, and
you've scarcely had time to remark
that you think its a very. beautiful
custom when an itching palm appears
between you and the holly. The post
man says, merry Christmas" and
waits for you to be generous, and the
lamplshter and the paper boy and the
man who delivers groceries and the
boy from the cake shop. Porters follow
you wherever you go, and servants
whom you never saw before bob up in
numbers. And out in the street when
ever you hear any one say Merry
Christmas" you mechanically put your
hand in your pocket. 1t isn't Christ.

lAs caokfnr Of food.

There is no reason in the world why
men. whether average men or men of
a,c2::as, should despise the cooking OF
their food. They never show, or ore
required to show, the same contempt
toward any other art, and on no other
is their mental calm more completely
dependent. An ill fitting coat is n
worry, but not such worry as dinners
perpetually Ill dressed. 10 many men,
and especially to men whose work Is
sedentary or whose brains are fully
taxed, food which is at once light and
nourishing Is an absolute necessity IL
they are to exert their highest powers,
and food of that kind is obtainable
only by care in selecting meats and
good cooking when they are selected.
A man should not think too much Of
his dinner Or devote too much time to
preparation for 1t or enjoy it too visi-
bly, when it has arrived, for all those
are animal peculiarities. But to re-
main content with bad food, when a
little more thought or carefulness or
criticism would procure it in a state fit
to be eaten, is only what Scotchmen
used to describe us "a wasting of the
maircies. "-London Spectator.
