am growing pessimistic and shall
be sour old maid"
Yet, if she would realize the
truth, it is in her power to be at
tractive despite her lack of a classic
nose and cream and rose COM
pleXion. Most women over-esti
mate the power of personal charm.
Many women grow discontented
and careless because they are plain
of face when they have within
them, if it we're awakened and de-
veloped, a power To attract greater
than that given by regular features
and lovely complexion. Mr..
Henry James asserts that the one
essential aim in educating women
should be TO teach them tact. which
is the true secret of the art of
pleasing of which every woman
should be mistress. Tact NAV be
cultivated to degree that means
the power TO influence men and
women irresistibfy. The basis of
tact isa knowledge of human nature
together with the faculty of putting
yourself in another's place. Add
to these a gracious manner, a we'll
modulated voice and a spirit of
kindly federation and you have
tact-a possession which may be
attained and which is infinitely
more to be desired than beauty

VIRGINIA lNSTRUCT6 FOR BRYAN.

BY practically unauimus vote.
the Virginia delegation To the
Denver convention was instructed
to vote for Bryan as long a his
name is before the convention. and
the talk of bitter iight on Bryan
in Virginia IS now killed.
We observe with pleasure that
Senators Daniel and Martin spoke
feelingly in the interest of harmony
and that the Junior Senator uu
equivocally advocated instrucliuy
the delegation TO vote for Mr..
Bryan.
The prospects of Democratic
success grow brighter every day,
and the spirit of harmony which
prevails in Virginia, Kentucky
and elsewhere will have It's good
effect upon the delegations from
other States.
The nomination of Mr.. Bryan
upon the first ballot is practically
a certainty, and all that now re-
mains is the selection of a good run
ming mate and the adoption ola plat
form declaring for revision of the
tariff and a return to the correct
Interpretation of the laws of States

MONTANA AND THE VICE PRESIDENCY

A valued subscriber writes TO the
Tribune to ask why this newspaper,
being the democratic organ in Mr..
Conrad's home town, has had moth
ing to say about his boom for a
place on the national ticket. 1t is
not the first time snch a question
has been propounded to us, and
possibly the Tribune owes some
explanation to its readers.
a great deal has been printed in
the eastern newspapers about Mr..
Conrad and his candidacy for the
first or second place on the ticket
and a good many alleged interviews
with Mr.. Conrad which were evolv-
ed out of the brains of enterprising
newspaper reporters were printed
IN the east and in some instances
reprinted here. Some of these
publications were made in good
faith, and some were not. So far
as any of them represented Mr..
Conrad as candidate for presiden-
tlal honors they misrepresented the
fact. Mr.. Conrad is not now nor
has been at any time in the past n
candidate for such high honor.
On the contrary, he has been a firm
and loyal supporter OF the claims
of William j. Bryan for such nom
lnation. Not only in Montana.
where Mr.. Bryan is among his
friends, has Mr.. Conrad contrib
uted aid and assistance toward the
nomination of MIR. Bryan, but in
Virginia, where the anti R~van
foes are strong and the f..t is
fierce, Mr.. Conrad has publicly
advocated the nomination Of the
peerless leader from Nebraska. and
received the thanks of Bryan's
friends in that state.
Regarding the vice presidential
nomination. Mr.. Conrad cannot be
said TO be an active candidate.
though it is true that in response
to many requests from friends in
the east, south and west, he has
said that he would accept a nomi-
nation for second place on the
ticket with Mr.. Bryan if it came to
him. He is not asking any en-
dorsement from the state conven-
lion. or bcthering his head much
