Mans Ever Faithful Friend.

The best friend man has in the
world may turn against him and be.
come his enemy. says an Irish paper.
His son or daughter, whom he has
reared with loving care, may prove un-
grateful. Those who are nearest and
dearest to us. those whom we: trust
with our happiness and our good name.
may become traitors to their faith. tn,
money that man has he may lose It
flies away from him perhaps when ha
needs it most A mans reputation
may be sacrificed in moment Of i'll
considered action. The people who
are prone to fall upon their knees to
do us honor when success is with us,
may be the first to throw the stone CT
malice when failure settles It's cloud
upon our heads. The one absolutely
unselfish friend that a man can havo
in this selfish world, the one that new.
er deserts him, the one that nevtr
proves ungrateful or treacherous, is
his dog. A mans dog stands by him
In prosperity and poverty in health
and in sickness. He will sleep on the
cold ground where the winter winds
blow and the snow drives f1ercely if
only he may be near his masters sido.
He will kiss the hand that has no foad
to offer; he will lick the wounds and
sores that come in encounter with tile
roughness of the world. He guards
the sleep of his pauper master as IL he
were a prince. When all other friends
desert he remains. When riches take
wings and reputation falls to pieces, he
is as constant in his love as the sur
in its journey through the heavens.
II fortune drives the master forth an
outcast in the world, friendless ana
homeless, the faithful dog asks no
higher privilege than that of accom-
panying him to guard against danger
to fight against his enemies. And
when the last scene of all comes, and
death takes the master in its embrace,
and his body is laid away in the cold
gr ound, no matter II all other friends
pursue their way, there by the grave
side will the noble dog be found, HIS
head between his paws, his eyes sad,
but open in alert watchfulness, faith
full and true, even in death.

AN IDEAL REPUBLIC.
A Gem From the Acceptance Speech
of Win. J. Bryan.

The following eloquent passage from
the acceptance speech Of VIM. J. Bry-
an Of Lincoln, Neb., deserves to be
preserved in scrap book:
I can never fully discharge the debt
of gratitude which owe to my coun-
trymen, for the honors which they
have so generously bestowed upon
me. But sirs, whether 1t be my lot to
occupy the high office for which the
convention has named me. or to spend
the remainder Of my days in private
life. 1t shall be my constant ambition
ard my controlling purpose to aid in
realizing the high ideals of those
whose wisdom and courage and sacr =
fees brought this republic into exist
ence. I can conceive of a national des-
tiny surprising the glories Of ti,s
present and the past: a destiny which
meets the. responsibilities Of today,
and measures up to tho possibilities of
the future.
Behold Republic. resting securely
upon the foundation stone quarried by
revolutionary patriots from the noun
tain Of eternal truth. A republic ap-
plying in practice, and proclaiming 10
the world the self evident proposi+ on
that all men are created equal; that
they are endowed with inalienable
rights; that governments are instltut
ed among men to secure these ri ;hts.
and that governments derive their just
powers from the consent Of the gov
erned.
Behold a Republic. In which civil
and religious liberty stimulate all to
earnest endeavor, and in which the
law restrains every hand uplifted fer
a neighbor's injury. A Republic In
which every citizen is sovereign. but
in which no one cares to wear q crown
Behold Republic. standing erect,
while empires all around are bowed
beneath the weight of their own arm

But the tariff soup was gobbled by the

And the tariff barons cheered us as we
marched so proudly by.
Now the barons have departed to gay

And the badge of our protection is the

And we lift the lid and ponder as we
