TUB COMMON KK IS DKA1). '. Ntt since the time of Henry Clay lias any man, failing to filial.. hijfh elective office, had such an' influence on the liation'i life as has William Jennings Bryan. And Bill Bryan died tjiday in the midst of activities following the evolution trial at Dayton, Tenn., that were characteristic of his cour r.ge, his energy, and his leadership. His passing will b rnourried by the entire nation and by countries throughout the wirld. Thpre were many times in Bryan's public life when the things he advocated ai-oused tremendous and overwhelming! opposition. Most of his long and brilliant career he was in the minority before the nation. But those facts do not dim the fine characteristics that have been admired for moiti than ii generation by friends and enemies alike. Repeatedly a candidate for president, Bryan always failed to attain that gpal, but he exercised an influence that made his' power greater,' 'at times, than many of our chief executives, and his numrj one that will go down in history as far more famed i than most men who hold high office. , ' , j . As'ja pacifist, a prohibitionist, an idealist Bryan created; constant opposition among leaders as well as among thej rank iid file. His greatness on those scores may be a mat.r' ter of "debate, but no one will jrnyjiia Lyjsiinand his intel leet in a'dvocjiling 'legislative reforms that" have become uni established part of our national life today. A quarter of' u ccntjjry ago Bryan's )latfonn contained many legislative! planksjjtjiat were ridiculed and bitterly fought. In recent, yeais jiiany of them have come to be integral parts of our I govenjhicntal system and we seldom stop to realize that these narks of progress were made possible, or were aided! greatly; or were originally proposed by Bryan. As secretary of staie under Wilson and as dictator of the Democratic party iihrough many campaigns his ideas and ideals have been so stamped on the consciousness of the American peo ple that his influence will be evident- for generations to pome. j NoHndividtial in the country has had such contact with common people nor such a personal iiO(iiainlance and fol lowing as did William Jennings Kiyan. Considered by ma:iy as thejgieatesl and most versatile orator of the age, Bryan has btj.'n heard in practically every city and town of anv size nj the I'nitcd States. Ih possessed a kindly, attrac tive pirsoiialUy that pleased aii with whom he came in con tact, h'et behind that was a strength of character and con vietioil that made of him one of the most outstanding fight-' rrs fof what he Mieved was the common good, in Ameri can hitory. He never wavered, .seldom compromised. Al thollgi inclined in later years to go off at doubtful tan guits.Jhis keen mind was never failing in resources for offensf or defense. And at the very last he had just com- pieieo!in trie evolution trial a liattle of wits that provetj ins mastery as a debater and hi:- Chnstlan eitizi'ii William Jennings Bryan is gone, but he leaves a fine herilaie of usefulness to a sorrowing nation and an undying inspiration in good citizenship to generations yet unborn.

Look at that charming lit tle hat just tiie style you have been looking for, and so reasonable! And say, isn't that coat a darling? . . . Not only do you see illustrations of the marchandise, but you are told in detail of its merits and prices. A passing panorama that may be halted and started at will. A shopping trip at home ! How long do you suppose it would take you to re verse the process to go up one street and down another, until you had visited personally every worth-while store in town? And how exhausted you would be, physically and nervously. There is lto doubt about it. The modern way to shop is to read the advertisements, then make notes of the stores and the particular offerings that ap peal to you. What a lot of time and bother such a method saves. You know beforehand what you want to look at, who has it, and what vou will have to pay. Read the advertisements. Make it a daily habit The regular reader of advertisements is better in formed, makes. the family budget stretch farther has more time for recreation, gets more value for her money, and profits in many other wavs d vertiscments are frequently the most interesting news in the paper. h Every day these shop-windows are lined up for your inspection in this newspaper. .ut Uic Uiuiuauds Iio u.m) llic Cvlc' lur so Uk-ut ivuual jxMOtfKX. w B K Is H U ra EQ a M CI Pi E9 M n El PI a n H n R N a a B R S3 sn 13 M a a H B U a n ts ta H u M ta H n H El n la n B rn H n n n pi n lI5HBE5ESZS3BIE2EBEBE2EEHSBEE5BEBS5EBXEIHEEIEd
