"CONFAB
Is Held By Bryan And Teddy
In N. Y.

New York, Sept. 9.--"What does it
mean? Can it be that there is some.
thing after all in the threat of new
alignment of parties in the next pres.
idential e!etction?"
These and many other questions and
speculations ran through political cir
cles today when it was learned that
William J Bryan and Theodore Roose,
welt were having a heart to heart
talk in the. former Presidents edi
torial offices in the Outlook building
Mr.. Bryan was in the building near
ly two hours and spent most of that
time with the former pesident Mr..
Roosevelt was in the finest of spirits
when he got through talking with his
former rival and shook hands most
cordially with him on the way to the
elevator.
y When he saw a reporter a minute
later he was all smiles and the ia.
nous teeth glistened.
'Mr. Bryan has been in to see, Mr.
Roosevelt" was suggested.
"Yes," with a regular Teddy smile
Mr.. Bryan and l have had quite a
nice visit. We had general talk on
interesting subjects. That was ALL
Was it about forming a new
party?" he was asked.
This seemed to amuse Mr.. Roose-
velt, for, he threw his head back and
all but roared. Then he sobered
quickly and with a soft, long drawn
out and peculiarly infected ''No!"
Then, as the significance of the sit
uation became more clear, Mr.. Roose-
velt explained further.
Nov, said Mr.. Bryan came in to
see me-" he said. "The fact is he
came into the Outlook building and
was one of the several he came to
see."

may, however, be attached to the re.
verse side Of the envelope. It is stip.
ulated that the stamps do not bear
designs similar to the government
article and that no figures appear on
their face To this the Red Cross de.
sign conforms. The order arises from
the fact that many people, ignorant
of postal regulations, last year used
the Red Cross stamps instead of the
regular stamps of the government re-
quired for postal expenses.
This will be the third year that the
seals have been sold on national
basis. In 1908 over S135,OO0 was real
ICED from the sale; in 1909, nearly
S225, 900, and in 1910, nearly 1910, 900.
The slogan for this years sale is "A
Million for tuberculosis From Red
Cross Seals"
New York state led the sale last
year with 5,955,S72 seals, Ohio came
next with sale of 3,743,427 and Wis

 "We'll take the hill road and go into that part of the woods where only squirrels and bats live" laughed Will. Its so wild there that we'll find bushels of nuts on the ground, with only the squirrels to dispute our right to them. I daresay, we'll return home with a wagon-load of fine chest nuts and walnuts."
 "Yes, if we get over into that stretch of wood on old Hearts land" replied Harry. Its as wild as the un- inhabited forests of India. How many will our party number. WHIP"

The lit tie girl was more than grateful for this gift, and the bit of tapestry was hung over the bed-couch at one side of the room and the festoons of leaves fell gracefully over it at the top cor ners.
 So the room grew, other friends adding to the pretty gifts, such as a brown leather cushion for the brown wooden rocker, and a pair of sash curtains in dull yellow scrim with dashes of golden grain over them. Then the little girls mother suggest ed that her daughter make a new couch cover, and what do you think the fabric was that she used? It was a rich dark green linen crash, and had a border of appliqued au- tumn leaves cut from a yard of cre- tonne which had been bought for the purpose. The little girl made the couch cover herself, and when the room was at last tidied up, it was a delight to look upon. Even the books
 Thus the decorations of autumn leaves and grasses led to the accom- plishment of delightfully."- pretty and artistic study bedroom. Other little girls might try the experiment, for autumn Is now lavish in giving rich supply of brilliantly tinted leaves and grasses. Such a decoration will keep very fresh and clean for several months together.
