Yet there we're twelve or thir-

OHIO AND ITS FAVOR|Te SONS

A strong republican faction in
Ohio denounces Taft and calls for
a presidential candidate from
outside the state. A strong demo.
cratic faction denounces Harmon
and it also calls for a nominee
from another cor mnnwealth.
Thus, while every other state
in the union is scar ching for some
one to hail and fellow as a
favo rite son, Ohio repudiates
both Of hers and threatens to
devour them.
It was not always 81. Time
wss when Ohio wss loyal to her
own and witout prejudice was will
ling to support for the presidency
any good man so long as he was
born within her borders. 10 those
days the Buckeye pol; -icians stood
not only for the favorite son,
but for second choice, for third
choice and even for fourth: choice.
The republicans, if tley coul d
not get Sherman, void fight for
Hayes, for Garfield and for Nc
Kinley. The democrats kept faith
with an equal aroor :or William
Allen, for Pendle+or, for Thurman.
Thus for many year, whenever a
presidential campaign approached,
there was heard great uproarious
c!amor that no man was really
eligible. for the presiC ency unless
born in Ohio. The change of
sentiment in the state from that
day to this is one CT the most
notable features of the recent
reformation or reformation in
politics. Whether it is due to

Andrew D. White, former ambassa-
cor to Russia and Germany, points out
stone post on the university campus
ss monument to a student who tried
to work his way through the university
soon after Ezra Cornell sent out call
for students in all parts of the world
who were willing to work to obtain
useful knowledge.
Il shall always think Of that stone
post before Sage college as Pelechin's
monument" said Mr.. White to a pro-
lessor recently. "Pelechin had come
ell the way from Kiev, Russia, in re-
spouse to the call to a university
where poor men could work their way.
1t was Mr.. Cornell's idea that all the
students should be at least partly self
supporting. -.
THE Russian had little money left
On his arrival and came to me to ap-
ply for work. I reported the matter
to Mr.. Cornell, and when a few days
later Mr.. Cornell bought this post
from the stone cutters and had 1t un-
loaded before the south building. Pc
lechin got the task of putting 1t in
position. The poor fellow was unac-
quainted with the use of tools and was
very awkward. 1t was several weeks
before he got hole dug which would
accommodate the post in its proper
position. His strange methods OF
work attracted the attention Of many
CT his fellow students, and they
ramed 1t Pelechin's monument, q
tame by which 1t was known for many
years afterward.
1T soon turned out that a monu-
I1ent was needed. Pelechin soon be-
came not only deficient in funds, but

course. congratulated him on his
thrift and his determination to sue

him what investment he had made.

and asked why he thought horse and

"Pelechin told me that there was a

to make a great deal of money by
hiring them out. Poor Pelechin! He

your choice.
The first method is to take half a
sheet Of fine woven paper and cover
Its surface with sweet oil; let It stand
moment or two. rub of the super.
huous oil and hang it in the air. When
1t ID fairly dry, move 1t slowly over
the flame of candle. lamp or gas
burner (caution) until 1t is quite
black. lay the plant or leaf on 1t,
place a clean piece of paper on top
and rub equally with the fingers for
about half minute; then take up the
plant and place 1t on the paper on
which 1t is desired to leave an impress.
sion. Cover it with a piece of, blot.
ting paper and rub as before The
engraving-like impression will then
appear.
BY the second method, burn a com
mon cork until it Is reduced to q
powder, add teaspoonful of olive oil
and mix into a thick paste. Next
paint the under side Of the leaf with
a camers hair brush, lay the leaf care
fully, painted side down, upon a piece
OF clean paper. press 1t in book I'M
