William Jennings Bryan will not

House OF Representatives. and a

presidential domination, which many
Democrats still believe. was rightfui-

Some OF the newspapers IN the
southern part of the state make the
fallacious argument that that end
Of the state has not been well taken
care OF in the matter Of public Office
and they use this as the chief rea-
son for advocating the selection OF a
United states senator from that see
ton.
showing that the reason IS not
well founded. it is on'y necessary to
meet their argument by calling at
+ention to the fact that that part o.
the state has Jared wei as the re-
suits OF the last state election give

urer, superintendent of schools and

SAW FALL OF PAGAN ROME
Today the Triumphs Of Chris
.-----+. tianity That Lives. ~@

Christianity Is crystallized in the
coliseum and st. Peters. In the
former by the triumphs of the
martyrs; in the latter, by the dedica-
ton of art to the worship Of God.
writes Bishop Gilmour
Come with me along the Via Sacra,
past the Forum and the Arch of Titus.
But a step, and we are at the Coli
scum, pressed in between the Celian
and Palatine hills, the Arch of Con-
stantine and the Temple of Venus.
AS we enter, the moon has risen.
giving a weird appearance to the
scene, as we see its shadows fit dis
solve and lose themselves amid the
arches Of this mighty ruin. Amid
broken arch and column and vaulted
corridor, terrace rises upon terrace
till the blood curdles and the hair
stands on end. Memory is busy and
hurr1es US back to when Christian
martyr and gentle maid stood within
the vast arena to die for Christ.
The emperor is there; the nobility
of Rome is there; tier upon tier is
densely packed; the wild beasts paw
their cages, impatient for the feast;
one hundred thousand voices shout,
1.-THE Christians to the lions." A
spring, growl, culver and another
hero has gone to God. Every brick,
and stone, and grain of sand in this
mighty ruin has been sanctifed by the
blood shed there. Here a Felicitas
and Perpetua, Cyriacus and Pancras
died; here Rome brutallzed herself,
and within these walls strove to crush
put truth.
Here Pagan Rome fell and Chris
tan Rome rose. The blood of the mar
kyrs was the seed of the church.

GOOD WORD FOR THE OYSTER
London Lancet, Always Pessimistic,
Comes Forward With Suriy
Need of Praise.

When the Lancet, representative Of
the medical profession Of Great
Britain, says anything good about any
thing, it is listened to with emotions
of mingled surprise and respect.
Some one has remarked that every
time he picked up the Lancet he dis
covered he was doing something right
along, or taking something that was
surely killing him. 1t has a good word
for the oyster just at the time when
that apparently innocuous edible is
exciting the scrutiny of our always
feverish advisers, the psychologists.
This distinguished, if usually alarmist,
authority declares that the oyster is
a tonic Of the first order, and a CON-
p1ete food, most beneficial to weak
ened patients and those in whom
appetite is deficient" Clinical results
Of a most favorable nature are re-
ported where oysters are given to
persons suffering from tuberculosis.
If oysters are indicated for the diet
of persons in the state described, they
must be wholesome for the rest of us.
There was never any doubt about
this, of course, before nervous bac-
teriologists sought to fill us full Of
fear instead of oysters. He was
brave man who first ate one raw,
according to the philosopher Of the
breakfast table: and now the bac-
teriologists challenge our courage

help to sustain timid souls at this
crisis.-Providence Journal.
