METHoDicAL FISHING

Jim McDermit, the lawyer, has a
great fund of "darky" dialect stor.
les. The one he most delights to tell
follows:
"a travelling salesman in a south
ern town came to small pond. An
old negro was lolling contentedly
in the sun with a fishing rod in hand.
The salesman paused and watched the
fishing. After watching for half an
hour without seeing the least sign of
a bite, he asked how the fish were
biting. The fisher looked surprised.
"'Why, boss, he exclaimed, 'dere
amt no fish in dis yere pond. Dere
never was fish in it,
"Well, what do you fish for?' the
salesman wanted to know
"'So's my old woman can see dat
amt got no time to chop wood for
der fire. the negro answered" New.

IRON IN ANTIQUITY

The following is brief summary
of the facts known as to the use of
iron by the ancients:
Interesting in the light of recent
metallurgical practise is part of an
iron tool found in the Great Pyramid,
because it contains not only nickel,
but also combined carbon, showing
that it is not of meteoric origin.
Under a sphinx at Karnak an iron
sickle was found.
At Delhi there still exists an iron
pillar so feet high and 16 inches in
diameter, made of 50-pound blooms
welded together This pillar, it is
suggested, may be regarded as the
doyen among products of the heavy
iron industry.
The use of iron and steel in China
has been traced to the year 1857 B. G..
The Japanese are said to have had
a curious method of making steel.
They buried forged iron in marshy
ground and after eight or ten years,
through some alchemy of nature, it
came out steel.-Dallas News.

MANS COMPOSITE IDEA
OF WOMAN

Do you think man, your man,
should make up his idea of women
from one woman? asks II. j. Ridg-
way in the Delineator. He had moth.
er and sisters and aunts and grand
mothers and cousins, and possibly a
sweetheart-one of those calf affairs
long before he met you, perhaps,
and during the years when impress
sions sink deep into the plastic mold.
Possibly he was better able to appre-
ciate you because of all the women
he had known before. And If he knew
a great many, the greater your dis
tinctlon; and If he now knows a great
many and holds you first, the proud
er your place, for there must be some
thing to him If many women care tc
know him; otherwise, they would moi
bother, How many men and womer
are jealous, when they ought to be
proud!

FACES DEFEAT IN
HOME CONVENTION
Bryan's Only Hope Is Appeal TO
Instructed Delegates,

Omaha, Neb. July 26.-That VIII.
Ham j. Bryan has met with a do
cisive defeat In Nebraska county and
will meet with still greater one in
the state Democratic convention at
the hands of delegates selected at
the county conventions, becomes
more apparent as the smoke Of battle
clears and the returns are received
And while Bryan does not yet admit
his defeat, his only chance OF win
ming in the convention 10 to 80 work
on the feelings of the delegates that
they will disobey their positive in.
atructions, throw their orders to the
winds and follow his lead.
With 80 yet TO be heard from, Bry.
an has 1913 instructed for county op-
ton, while 2R9 are uninstructed, but
a large number OF these have stated
they will vote against Mr.. Bryan.
Should Mr.. Bryan secure this unin.
Structed list of delegates he will yet
be short Sc votes. and must succeed
in inducing that number Of delegates
TO disregard their instructions before
he can control the convention.
