E ^Ey*G A SUNBEAM
(4 f?7E HEAR and road a great deal
W about ^optimism." said the
stranger, "aod we go around tolling
our friends not to worry. The advice
la good enough, but wo don't pause to
reflect that optimism is a mental at_
titude that can be
reached only by
A little book ontitied.
'How to Be a
T..HiL | Sunbeam,' which
answers the oues
er is indorsed
by all the statesmen and prelates In
the country," exclaimed Mrs. Curfew. ]
MI don't want to be a sunbeam, expe- ,
* rience having taught me that I can get i,
along better and have less trouble and 11
tribulation, when I look as much like .
a meatax as possible.
"Last evening before I went to bed
I was reading a book called 'Sunshine
Susan.' It was about a woman who
just made up her mind to be happy '
no matter what happened. Then her 1
husband was brought home with a
broken leg, and the two children had
a number of measles simultaneously, I
and the house burned down, and the 1
| bank In which she had deposited her I
| savings closed Its doors, and In spite : (
9 of everything she went around singing j
K and dancing.
| "If I had thought It over I might j
B hove realized that It was too good to :.
flfc be true. No human woman could be '
3K gay and happy In the midst of so
many calamities. But I was In a '
gsfpi sentimental mood, and when I turned | ^
IB out the light and went to bed I thought j1
H that I ought to be ashamed of myself ':
H for not being like Sunshine Susan, and j ]
|B I made up my mind I would turn over <
gK a new leaf first thing In the morn*
"So I came downstairs smiling, and j
I was slnrin? all the time T was tret- ! <
wf ting breakfast, and when Mr. Curfew !
y| came down he Bald St warmed up his
9 whole being to see me In such a cheer- '
B ful frame of mind. It reminded him i
of him of the time when I was sweet 1
H seventeen, and as pretty as a red *
9 wagon. Then he gradually drifted Into 1
W a story to the efTect that he had a J >
great opportunity to make the finest ' 1
horse trade of his career. All he need- \
ed was $7 in cash to dose the trans- ',
action, and he would make at least |
iwby it
; "SeTnew I had $7 put away In the ?
dock jo buy myself some clothes I
Seed the worst way. I had saved that 1
money, a nickel and a dime at a time,
and was looking forward to the time '
wjhen I would have enough to go shopIP
$3? and buy myself an outfit good <
enough for the queen of Sheba^ . :
, Mr. .Curfew hqfl beep trying t<? bpP i
row"n:; savings 7or^a long time" offetlng
to give menlTnofe as security^ and ]
before I read that Sunshine Susan book ,
T nlwnvs rpfriRtvl him. and nearlv
snapped Ms bead off doing it. But that 1
> morning I was anxious t(Tmaae every- '
body^ happy, so I handed him the
money, and he went and made his *
Horse trade and brought home an old 1
1 crowbalt that has been sick ever since, 1
and he spends all hfc time out at the 1
1 barn, feeding It pills and powders, (
and I can't get him to do any of the ]
[ chores around the place. {
" "The same qoroln? m?L Turpentln# ,
heard me singing In the back yard, ^
Land she thought it would be a good ,
time to borrow my patent electylc 1
'washing machine, and came over for
(that purpose* She had asked for It a !
dozen timet before, but 1 always told
her to go ta Being fall of sunshine
on that occasion, however, I told her <
Bhe could have It and welcome, and
rve never been able to use It el nee.
The man who sold It to me says It .
will cost $6 for repairs, so you see
what Sunshine Susan did to me.
"No, mister, I don't want any recipe
for being a sunbeam, and you can
take your book along to Mrs. Turwllllger.
In the yellow bouse across
the street She's the champion middle
weight pessimist of this neighborhood."
Explained.
"Do you see the man yonder? Well,
to my certain knowledge he Is leading
a double life."
"You don't say so!"
"Yes; he Is a professional contortionist."
After American Stylemakerm.
French creators of feminine gowns
and hats have appealed for a law to
? prohibit the Indiscriminate photographing
of their models at the race
tracks. They claim that American
and other clothing designers are stealing
fashion points from the pictures.

BRYAN DISCSsUES
ROPKREMARKS
SAYS DEMOCRATIC PARTY MI ST!
HAVE MEMBERS TO BE
A FORCE.
Miami, Feb. 10.?"If the Democratic
party is going to Ik- a force in this
country it must have members an.!
the voters will not be willing to act
through the Democratic party unless
they can control it," said William Jenrings
Bryan at his winter home here,
in discussing the an-.ounceme.it in
Xew York by former Judge R. C.
F;oper, of N'tbivska. that he (I.ryar)
and his brother. Charles Bryan, planned
a reoragizaticn of the Democratic
party.
Mr. Brvon <ai?l that le had nor
I invon of t'.e setl;ng of a definite !:ite
f< r the launching of the movement, v.ar.ounced
by Judge Roper.
"I am in constant association with
my brother, who is in charge of my
faper," said Mr Bryan. "I >r year*

"I do not expect much of any surface
movements; that is, movements
imong the party officials. Progress
*ill come through activity among the
voters and they cannot act until they
lave a chance to select committeemen.
Prior to this they can organize
imong themselves, discuss questions,
pick out spokesmen and get ready for
iffective action when the time for the
selection of the commiteemen comes,
rhis, I think, they should do. And this
s what I hope to contribute to it
through my paper.
"If the proposed meetings of the
sub-committees or the full committee
lave no higher purpose than the boostng
of some particular aspirant for ofice,
they will do little. If, however,
the membership of the committee
vant to outline a constructive platform
and call upon the rank and file
'or an expression of opinion, much
may be accomplished."
No Special Interests.
"Past differences," he continued,
'ought to be forgotten among those
vho agree as to future action, but
there can be so harmony in the party
organization as long as the 'wets' or
iVall street or any other special interest
attempts to use the party organisation
to keep the party from doing
its duty ty the public.

lot deserve to win until it puts me
:ause of the people above the ambition
)f any individual.
"The people are intensely in earnest
and the committee can best serve
the party, not by burning incense before
any particular idol, but by getting
down to work for the protection
if the public against expoiters. We
have a case in point. Senator Calder.
if New York stated the other day that
the coal men had plundered the public
to the extent of a billion and one
half dollars per year.
"That sum is greater than all the
stealing done by all the men now
:onfined in the penitentiaries of the
I'nited States?and nothing is being
done to imprison the expoiters or to
protect the public from them.
"It makes comparatively little difference
who is chairman of the national
committee, but it makes a tremendous
difference whether the committee
is interested in personal ambitions
or the welfare of the masses."

Williamston Man Gives Tanlac Credit ;
For Putting Him back on
His Feet.
"Tanlac cot me back on my feet and ,
proved just the medicine I needed." j
In that sentence, J. L. McCIellan, i
of Williamston. S. C., summed up his .
experience with Tanlac. j
"When I began taking Tanlac I was
in a very weak condition, and I was "
told that I was threatened with paralysis.
I became so weak I could not1
get about at all, and for one year 11
was unable to go. I had no appetite!
and I never felt well. Even though
I was under treatment I got no better
to amount to anything and 1 had begun
to fear I would not be able to get
myself back in good shape again.
"I took seven or eight bottles of
Tanlac ami I am in fine shape now. |
