Jewelers handle a better grade of
hand painted Chins than other stores,
because an Inferior line of Chins
would appear out of place alongside

Pearl Leighton was a trim little
body, just turned eighteen, with fair
hair, blue eyes and one of those soft
feminine voices that usually go with
such a physique. She was luuocent as
a dove.
But Miss Leighton had a younger
brother, aged nine, who was as full of
mischief as his sister was free from
guile. What did the young scapgrace
do but paint on Pearl’s new silk um-
brella, of which she was very proud,
In white letters the words, “I'm look-
ing fob a lover.” Miss Leighton, dress-
ed In her daintiest costume, pnssed
through the hall buttoniug her glove,
out through the front door on to
the stoop, cast her blue eyes up at
the sky, which was lowering, then at
the ground, which was wet, returned
to the hall for her umbrella, and as
she put It up looked again at the sky,
fearing that it might rain Instead of
drizzle and damage the umbrella. Con-
sequently she did not see the Inscrip-
tion. Her brother saw it from an up-
per window and rolled on the floor in
an excess of glee.
Pearl had not gone far before- she
bethought herself whether she had
brought her portemonnaie and If It con-
tained any money. Opening a little
bag on her arm, she took out the porte-
monnsle, which contained very small
change, mostly copper and nickel, and
was counting It when she dropped a
coin. While looking for It she heard
a very pleasant and well modulated
masculine voice say:
“I perceive you are looking for some-
thing. May I to of service to you?”
“It's only a cent or at most a nickel.
Don’t trouble yourself.”
But be did trouble himself and, find-
ing the coin, raised his derby hat with
one hand and handed ber tbe piece
with the other, looking into her azure
eyes with s pair of black ones that
were dancing with good bumor. He
was young and evidently a gentleman.
“Thank you ever so much,” she said,
not understanding the merriment in
his countenance, but relishing the ad-
miration that accompanied it
“Have you lost anything else?’ he
asked.
“Why, no. What makes you think I
have?”
“If a girl is looking for something,
as it is plain you are. either she has
lost It or wishes what she has not pos-
sessed.”
“But what I hate been looking for
has been found.”
“When?”
“Why, Just now.”
“Then I am very happy."
She brought ber eyes on his In mild
wonderment; then, lowering them to
the ground, she walked on. He did
not take the bint and walked on with
her.
“But you don’t know," he said,
“whether it will prove a blessing or a
curse.”
/ “What?"
"This coveted thing."
“The nickel you found for me?"
“Oh. no! That's only a nickel. It
can neither be a blessing nor a curse."
“What do you mean is a blessing or
a curse?"
“This thing you are proclaiming to
the world you are looking for.”
Again the look of wonder. "Really."
she said. “I haven’t the slightest idea
what yon are talking about.”
“That's surprising. I think you
should give notice whether you hare
lost it whether you wish a new one or
whether you have never had It at all.
I assure you It makes a great deal of
difference.”
She put on as haughty a look as she
was capable of and said, “Since It has
been found I think further discussion
of it is unnecessary."
“Then why not take in the notice?”
“What notice r
“The notice that you are looking
for"—
He paused. She was not one of tbe
kind to order away one who, having
put her under 5 cents’ worth of obliga-
tion, seemed disposed to form a street
acquaintance, but he saw that she
looked distressed.
"Pardon me,” be said, dropping his
bantering tone. “Some one has been
playing a trick on yon. Tbe temptation
to rally you upon It has been irresist-
ible. If you will examine the cover of
your umbrella you will see for your-
self."
She lowered her umbrella. He held
his own over ber and, taking hers by
the handle, showed ber tbe inscription.
"Well, I declarer’ the exclaimed.
"Have I been parading with that thing
up? Tom did that My umbrella’s
spoiled, and I'm the laughingstock of
the town."
A tear stood to ber eye. Closing the
umbrella, ha said la his kindliest tone:
“I think tbe letters can be washed
out, and, as for being a laughingstock,

FOR BRYAN
AND KERN
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE DEMO
CRATIC CAMPAIGN FUND ARE
NOW IN ORDER.
WHERE’S THE DOLLAR
That You Are Going to Contribute to
the National Democratic Campaign
Fund—Send it in to The Leader and
Receive Proper Acknowledgement.
To the Editor:
There ar8 no secrets in this cam-
paign. Strictly practicing what he
preaches, Mr. Bryan would not win
victory' with tainted money paying the
election expenses.
Not a dollar is to he accepted which
requires any promise, either express
or-Implied, other than for HONEST,
IMPARTIAL GOVERNMENT.
Mr. Bryan will enter the White
House absolutely free from entang-
ling alliances, free to serve all classes
of honest citizens alike, or he will not
enter at all. \
Hence the course is plain. The
campaign of Bryan and Kern must
be conducted by the people.
The people must pay the necessary
campaign expenses if they want pub-
lic servants who will serve their in-
terests.
Special Interests and favored
classes, having secured “SWOLLEN
FORTUNES” by purchasing favors in
the past with MILLIONS CONTRIB-
UTED TO CONTROL ELECTION'S,
stand ready to give MILLIONS FOR
CONTINUED FAVORS. But. that
class never ^ves a dollar unless it
buys a pledge.
Mr. Bryan says, from March 4,
1909, “LET THE PEOPLE RULE."
This can come only If the people
pay their own hills, and control their
own elections.
“BEWARE OF THE TRU8TS
■BEARING GIFT8
That policy of the favored few buy-
ing a mortgage on the government
meant that the candidate for Preal-
dent knew a few people only In an
entire state.
Bryan says, “We will take the cause
of PEOPLE’S RULE home to the peo-
ple and will know people in every
country."
You can serve the grand cause of
popular government
Your paper reaches the fireside of
the patriot who loves hia country for
bis country’s GOOD; as distinguished
from the greedy possessor of swollen
fortunes who loves his country only
for his country's GOODS.
Please carry this letter in BOLD
TYPE at the mast head of your paper.
Asking every one who favora gov-
ernment by the people to pay you,
at once, as many dollars as he can
spare to aid the campaign for BRYAN,
KERN AND PEOPLE'S RULE. Yon
forward these gifts of honest hearts
and home every two weeks to the
treasurer of the Democratic National
Committee, with the name of each
contributor and amounta given. ^ The
treasurer will forward you a certifi-
cate like the copy enclosed for each
one, asking yon to deliver these cer-
tificates.
Once more, you should be a part of
the Great Organization bearing the
Lamp of Light to every nook and cor-
ner of Free America.
Our country is for the people; Ita
government must be by the people.
Sincerely,
NORMAN E. MACK,
Chairman Democratic National Com-
mittee.

Treasurer.
