BRYAN DOES THE MARKETING

Secretary of State Makes Rounds Every Morning With Basket on Arm.

Washington.—Secretary Bryan is not too busily engaged with affairs of state to do the marketing for the Bryan household. Almost any'morning the secretary of state may be seen in a local market place with a large basket swinging from his left arm. Col. Bryan seems to enjoy the marketing to the full. He elbows the crowd and apparently does not mind it any more than he did when making his political campaign tours. Secretary Bryan’s fondness for the radish of the white variety is now generally known among marketmen and they try to keep on hand the kind he

likes. The other day, however, much to Col. Bryan's disappointment, his far vorite vegetable was not to be had. “You know. I’m just crazy about white radishes,’ said the secretary to a woman shopping beside him. “Nd other kind will do.” And he continued his search among the stands.
