What Mr.. Hawthorne wrote is as true
now as it was then, though the organs
can hardly. be said to have lived in
"obscurty" since that time. Mrs. Bryan
has had occasion since 1896 to face many
a crowd, and has always acquitted her
self creditably. She has won many
friend for her husband, even in hostile
New York city. Her attitude toward this
third campaign is the same as it was

her husbands success and will work for

sighted to believe in it blindly. And her
steadfast faith that all things work to-
gether for good is such that she will not

up in the name of Grace Dexter Bryan,
the youngest daughter of the organs.
Miss Wright long friend of the fam
lily, in speaking of Mrs. Bryan several
years ago said:
Her whole life has been one of study.
Long before she could read she knew the
names Of bugs her little hoe turned up
in the garden. In her early life the doc
tor said that she must be kept out-of-
doors Luckily she did not like indoor
life. All day long she tagged her father,
and they played together in the garden.
By the time she was old enough for
books she was kin to everything they told
about. She tdealized the earth and its
generating and regenerating character.
From a weak child she has grown to be
a strong woman with rare power of en-
durance and concentration. She and her
father would sit on the porch at night
and study the skies, and the old Greek
and Morse stories of the stars were re-
peated until she had committed them all
to memory. He told her how far away
they were and what a speck the world
would look If it could be seen from
Venus. The idea of the immensely of the
universe and the relation of the world to
the solar system seldom enters the mind
of child, but with Mary Baird 1t was
the most Interesting story that could be
told. Early star-gazing and her fathers
influence trained her to think of things
abstractly, markedly and without the i'm
pediments of custom and fashion. Dur

John Baird for many years merchant
of Perry. ILL.,, was Mrs. Bryans father
a man of Scotch-Irish ancestry. located
in this country in about the middle of the
18th century in the vicinity of what is
now Eaton, Pa. He was a man - de-
vout temperament and excellent literary
taste He had much leisure time and de-
voted this to reading and to his daughter,
after the death of his invalid wife Mary
Baird was prevented by the invalidism
of her mother from finishing the course
she began at Monticello Seminary, at
Godfrey, ILL.,, where she was graduated
with first honors of her class.
Mr.. Baird, during the last Is years of
life was afflicted by blindness. He then
made his home with his daughter, who
became veritably eyes to him. Hour
after hour each day Mrs. Bryan read to
her father from the great authors of all
time loved by both of Them Often Mr..
Bryan and the children were willing au-
ditors at these ''readfests." and this
doubtless has much to do with the SOLID
knowledge of English literature possessed
by the three Bryan children. Victor
Hugo was long a favorite author of both
Mr.. Baird and his daughter. OF him the
latter has said:
Every word he has written is classic
message"
Mrs. Bryan tells an interesting story
Of the way in which Mr.. Bryan asked
her father for her hand. 1t is as follows:
MANY persons have remarked upon
the fondness Mr.. Bryan shows for quot
ing Scripture. This habit is one of long
standing, as the following circumstance
shows. The time came when 1t seemed
proper for him to have little CONVEX
sation with my father. and this was
something of an ordeal, as father was
a reserved man. In his dilemma Mr.
Bryan sought refuge in the Scriptures
and began:

Proverbs a good deal lately and find
that Solomon says: ''Whoso findeth a

There Is one remedy for publishers
of one-cent newspapers who are de-

formality of approving the nomina-
