THE LAND o. TIE LEAL.

The land Of worth,

To memory how dear,
To eye how fair,
Her w0men-the fairest on earth,
Her boys how brave,
No honor they crave
Save TO live for the land Of their birth.
In the past or the present,
Afar or near,
No history reads 40 well,
The fame they've earned
Is clearly discerned,
The history Of the country will tell.
Her Washington and Lee
You plainly can see,

Her privaies "a well,
The history will tell.
No measure can no d their worth.
May her future he bright,
May she always be as right.
As she was 10 sixty-one;
May her soDs be as brave
And her honor proudly save,
As the heroes Of the pat have done.
Then hail TO the South.
The dear old South.
Forever and aye she will be
The dearest to our hearts,
The faire,t to our eyes,
The land Of the brave and the free.

THE BUFFALO NOT A ABUFFAlo.

The animal called a buffalo by
most people is not buffalo at all,
but bison. Long years ago when
America was Fl irst settled by the white
man. the pioneers who saw some of
the native animals for the first time
were puzzled as to what to call them.
Instead of inventing new names or
waiting until scientists had properly
classified them, they called them by
the names of the animals nearest like
them in the country from which they
came. For example. the bird that
we call robin is not robin at all
but was called that by the English
settlers because it mad red breast.
In the same way the American elk
is not an elk and its right name is
wapiti. So the poor American bison
got the name buffalo saddled onto it
and is better known by that name
than by It's proper one.

Most digesters rely on pepsin.
But pepsin digests albumen only.
1t is but one of the elements need
ed.
Starch, fats and pfosphates each
require something else.
Then half of digestion is done in
the bowels, and pepsin can't do
that.
1t requires many ingredients to
form a perfect digester, and they
must be in liquid form.
Kodol has all those ingredients.
It does all that the stomach
does-ail that the bowels do. It
digests any food-any mixture of
foods-completely.
Partial digesters give only half
way help.
There is always some food left
to get hard, and irritate the stom-
ach lining.
That irritation, even though
slight, continues the Inflammation.
That is why the stomach fails to
regain its strength.

First Class Writer.

It is remembered that Mr. Bryan
also is an excellent writer, what may
be called first class writer. But what
of that? The late Charles A. Dana of
the New York Sun once was visited by
a friend who wanted Dana to find
writing position for young man fresh
from the country.
"He is first class writer, Mr..
Dana" said the friend.
Mr.. Dana picked up brickbat which
lay on his table as paperweight.
Then he tured to the window.
Look down there on Park row., he
said. II could shy this brickbat down
there at any time of the day or night
and hit on the head first class writer
who is starving TO death"
! No amount of literary work. however
brilliant, could have gained William J.
Bryan his premier place in the Democ-
racy. He might have written the ex
act words that he speaks until he had
writer's paralysis clean up to his aTrl-
pits and down his backbone without
being able to capture single dele
gates vote In convention to nominate
candidate for constable of Hooppole
township. His oratory has made him
his oratory, backed. Of course. by his
force Of character, his transparent sin
cerity, his courage of conviction.
Right here we may point out another
item of resemblance between Henry
Clay and the Nebraskan. Clay always
took firm stand, right in front of tho
footlights, on any question which came
up for discussion during his fifty years
of public life. Bryan always does the
same. There are political cats ut
which you are always looking with
something Of anxious concern, not
knowing just which way they are go
ing to jump. Bryan usually gets to the
spot where he stands on public prob
lens before the crowd looks that way
land there he plants his feet with r,
Isounding PUNK Even If the spot gets
tout from under him. as in the Instance
lof the government ownership of rail-

NERVE enough to state his views. Ma
lture abhors a vacuum and vacillatine
politician, politician who never
stands for anything because there is 6
vacuum about three feet long where

So, to sum up. we may say that Mr.
Roosevelt, an emphatic man like Mr.
Bryan and likewise an evangelist
though of a different type, is popular

To keep his hold upon the leadership
Of the Democracy Mr. Bryan has had

I A MEXICAN history presents n,
~ parallel to the career of Will
H liam Jennings Bryan. TIL,
same may be said as to hin
personality. Both in career and char
acter he is unique.
Holding no office, never having held
any office save that of representative
In congress for two terms in his early
manhood, Mr.. Bryan for twelve years
has dominated one of the two great po-
litical parties of the nation. This pc.
litical organization is of hundred
years standing, the party of Thomas
jefferson, of Andrew Jackson, of Gro
yer Cleveland.
When first nominated for the presi-
dency in 1896 Mr.. Bryan had been o
private citizen for two years. He has
been a private citizen ever since. Yet
In personal popularity, in his political
hold on the party, he still is the focal
and foremost figure in the national De-
mocracy. This is indubitably true de-
spite the frantic efforts of considera-
BILE section of Democratic adherents to
belittle his leadership. Facts are facts.
In 1900 Mr.. Bryan was renominated
for the presidency by reclamation. In
1904 he could have been renominated
for the third consecutive time had he
desired the honor. Now, in 1908. Oh
the eve of the national convention al
Denver, he appears TO have an easy
two-thirds majority for the nomination
His two defeats for election to the
presidency do not appear to have I'M
paired his availability for third can
didacy In the estimation the great
