NEW YORK, Dec. 23.--Paying high
tribute to President-elect Woodrow
Wilson and Goyernor-elect Sulzer OF
this state, Col. w. J. Bryan, at the
Waldorf Astoria hotel expressed
the Utmost confidence in the be-
lief that the pledges of the democratic
party 10 revise the tariff downward
and "give the little man show" will
be carried out.
Despite the fact that he was In the
stronghold Of Tammany Hall and
that Tammany's chieftain, Charles
F. Murphy, had refused to honor the
occasion with his presence because OF
Bryan's attacks at Baltimore, the
Commoner was warmly greeted. He
was conciliatory in his talk and said
nothing that could be construed as
Indicating the result OF the lengthy
conference he today had with Cover
j nor Wilson in Trenton.
In both Governor Wilson and Sui
zer, Bryan said, opportunity and pre-
paredness met. Both men, he said
were able to perform the tasks thai
will face them, when they were se
]lected to be advanced to the positions
of high honor.

very kind to you, Melissa" remarked
Aunt Jane.
He was," assented Mrs. Merriwid,
He never even offered to beat me. He
used to think he had a talent for sar.
casm, poor man! and l suppose he i'm.
aglned that he was stabbing me in all
Kinds OF tender spots when he talked
about the way l managed the house
and spent his hard-earned money; but
ne meant to be kind. All he wanted
TO do was to show me what silly,
careless, vain, criminally extrava-
CANT creature was, so that could re-
form. And could always get money
from him by going through his pock-
cts when he was asleep bless him!
Really and truly, he wasn't hard to
manage and I certainly miss him.
Poor Henry!"

him" said Aunt Jane, rather severely.
He snored great deal, and miss
that" sighed Mrs. Merriwid. HE was
what you might call regular and
rhythmic snorer, Henry was, and 1t
had lulling effect after got used to
it. Now I've got to get accustomed to
the quiet and lying a-bed as long as
want to. There's so much in habit,
auntie, and that's one Of the blessed
compensations Of married life. You
never saw Henry, and that picture
sent you didn't show the wen on his
nose. The photographer retouched it
out along with the wrinkles, but it
was an awfully big wen and l couldn't
