THE BRYAN SCARE

The Louisville Courier Journal
does not take seriously the idea that
William j. Bryan will again be a
cadidate for the Presidential Nomina-
ton.
This is an article from Henry Wat
terson's old paper, but from which
Watterson has retired
"Mr. Bryan is going to throw his
hat into the ring! He is going to
make speech! He is going to make
two speeches! (Which is ridiculous
on its face, for he is going to make
hundreds of speeches if he lives)
Democratic leaders are losing sleep
about it. The Democratic National
Committee is fearful that it is to
meet over a powder mine. Some
thing must be done to save the party,
and the chief thing that must be done
is to abolish the two thirds rule.
eve always hear plenty of talk
about abolishing this rule before the
meeting of every National Democra-
tic Convention. 1t is either a good
rule or it is not, and it ought to be
retained or discarded on it's merits or
demerits. without any reference to
Mr.. Bryan or anybody else 1t would
be folly to discard it because of fear
of the Boy Orator. 1t is no longer
In his power to get control of the
Democratic party. If there is one
Democrat in the country whose lead
ership has been thoroughly discredit-
ed, it is he. Three times has he had
the party's nomination for the Presi-
dency and each succeeding time has
his weakness been more badly expos
ed. He put the finishing stroke to his
chances for a public career by his in
glorious fiasco as Secretary of State
Even his most ardent admirers of the
past are disllusioned and done with
him.
"This chatter about another Bryan
peril comes from politicians Of the
walled-in city of Washington who
are unable TO see beyond their
noses"

FARM LOANS IN
SOUTH CAROLINA

In 1919 there were 1742 applica-
tions by South Carolina farmers for
loans through the Federal Loan Bank
in Columbia. The total number of
loans granted was 1910. The aver
age size of the farm loans was $325O.
The total loans amounted to nearly
four million dollars. The money is
loaned for long time and at very
low rate of interest. AS the farmers
pay good share of the taxes it is
well that they should get this accom-
mediation from the federal govern
ment.

almost as much as the highest total
imports from Germany for any one
year. Soy bean oil in 1919 was
$3,99d,776 and silk fabrics, $10,959,-
396.
The exports from the United
States to Japan had always been
much smaller than our imports from
Japan, until the year 1919, when our
exports to Japan were 1926, 1862, ,269."

Take "Dodson's Liver Tone' Instead

Dodson's Liver Tone is personally
guaranteed by every druggist who
sells it. a large bottle costs but a
few cents, and if it fails to give easy
relief in every case of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant.

DON'T JUNK THE RAILROADS

A very regretted fature of the rail
road situation is that some good roads
will be sold for what the rolling stock
and the rails will bring. A notable
instance is that of the Atlanta, Bir-
: mingham and Atlantic railroad that
runs through one Of the best sections
of Georgia.
AS the government is to give the
railroads back to their owners March
it is up to Congress to enact some
kind of legislation that will make
the roads worth more than the iron
that is in them. Even old iron has de-
preciated since the close of the war.
Congress should so legislate that the
railroad system of the country may
be preserved. AS is well known the
government maintains rural mail
routes gives million to rivers and har-
bors, to public buildings, why not en-
act such legislation as will safeguard
the railroads and protect them from
the junk heap?
Referring to the railroad situation
as recently developed the Atlanta
Constitution says:
There is no element in the nation
today that has done so much Tor the
public welfare or that has contribu-
ted so much to the development of
the country as have the railroads; no
matter now pending is of more press
ing or vital Importance to the whole
country; and if this is not speedily
worked out in a constructive manner
such as will start the railroads once
more on an upward grade and to
building, instead of tearing up road.
beds, the whole transportation struc-
ture Of the country is bound to fall
down like house of cards"

THE OLD DELAINE DRESS,

Dear Social Corner Sisters: This is a story of the way an old-fashiofied de- laine dress helped one of my friends "doll up" her very plain guest room in a farm house. The ancient one-piece dress was relic of her srandfnother's days and had been packed away in an equally old hair-trunk in the attic, The goods was soft, of pale salmon sprinl1led with tiny rose buds, and of course it's skirt had enough cloth in it's gathered width to make four skirts of
 the modern bolster cut
 When my friend received a letter iron,
 a western cousin who was coming to
 New York for a visit, that guest room
 looked ss shabby she was about ready to sit down and cry over it; for she could not afford to spend an extra dollar ! to prirnp things up. Finally she decided. after racking her poor, tired brains, that she would give the horrid, old, inartistic set Of furniture coating of white en- aEnel-doing the work herself After the ugly bedstead with it's high head-board had been painted, and the | table. corns ode, equally ugly dresser and odd chairs were all in glossy white. the disnaysd hostess began to take heart. The nondescript furniture really l looked surprisingly nice
 By sacrificing dotted muslin dress ! of her own-a reminder of her trous- | seau-she was able to evolve very good 1 looking curtains.
 l Bleaciied and well laundered, the ! muslin appeared exceedingly dainty. She was fortunate enough to find scraps Of the dress sufficient to supply the foundation for the dresser-cover, which l she edged with a frill of some old tor 1 chon lace she happened to have 4 1 scarf for the table was skimped out al- | so.
 So satisfactory was her experiment 1 with the furniture that she decided to | give the woodwork of the room coa:

 Ripped up. sponged and pressed, that wonderful garment eked out straight strips; to border the curtains, a cushion for the old. but comfy rocker and the high-backed chair which she set in front of the table, having rigged up this lat. ter with writing material, desk fashion Each curtain was headed by a pIaited valence which filled her heart with joy it was really so pretty. Fired by her success, she took away the ugly ingram carpet, stRlned the noor, and robbed

REMEMBER ME.
THE FOLLY or KEEPING LETTERS.

HE OGAL UT
 Sisters of The Corner: wonder how many of you are addicted to the habit of treasuring letters long after their fresh hess has departed? Who can account for that maspie habit in most women which leads them to store away bundles of let ter5 which might better be destroyed within half an hour after reading?e
 Of course, there are exceptions to this rule-letters, for example, from the SOL nier son CT the traveller or those nearest and dearest-although in the majority of cases such epistles are never intended by the writer to meet the eye of any person except tEe one to whom they are ad- dressed. To keep them, therefore, is uia- fair to the writer.
 Therein lies the danger of hoarding sach nssives-facts and incidents and names which mean something only to t1ose reading the epistles may, in case they fall under the eye of a stranger, result in very mischievous impressions and misunderstanding Often bundles Of letters, originally intended to be the most secret and intimate. foolishly kept, come to light after the death of the recAfp4r- and frequently. too, with undesirable re- suits. Better far destroy religiously all except strictly business correspondence |; then many 8 secret will be kept and many heart-burnlng avoided. a1f. r-..-'
