POTTER. THE REAL ISSUE. There is no denying the fact that the personality of each of the' candidates Is the issue the real issue this election. Consequently, there is a great trade doing politically in personalities. Hearst, up to the present, has been the ringleader' principally because he has nothing to lose and everything to gain. Into the melee come Taft, Bryan, Roosevelt and other lights. So far only political reputation has been attacked, but It is almost certain that before the campaign comes to a conclusion that the vileBt liest will try to attach themselves to the individual candidate. When Taft spoke of Bryan at Cincinnati yesterday, his words were devoid of political and private animosity and virulence. With a scapel he laid bare and showed up In the brightest colors Bryan. Tha real Bryan. There was a sanity and calmness a startling precision about those words that makes them Indelible. - Bryan cannot get away from his rec-j ord in the noonday glare of Taffs utterance any more thr - Jog can run away from his By r fruits ye shall laiow .." In that speech he showed how, with avidity, Bryan has sucked up untried issue after issue, only to spit them out when their bad qualities were exposed. The only thing Bryan ever did was to further the Gorman-Wilson bill. A bill so damnable in its results, so Insidious in Its action that it poisoned the whole business of the country. It caused bankruptcy it threw laborers out of work, not by the hundreds nor by the thousands, but by the millions. It was not so long ago that we cannot remember Coxey'a army nor the free

soup stalls. It was the republican

party which rescued the country. From that time on we see Bryan em bracing free silver, repudiation of debts a thing so dangerous that it threatens the very life blood of the republic. (But that is not in the plat form now.) Next it was an attack on the repub lican party for imperialism and war like tendencies. He condemned a large navy. (Today Bryan advocates naval protection for the Pacific coast which means a larger navy.) In order to become "safe and sane" Bryan went around the world. He came back for government ownership of railroads. (But that is not in the platform.) Today Bryan advocates taking "one man's money to pay another's default." He ignores the postal savings banks issue, (which has been tried with success in almost every European country) and goes after a scheme which failed In New York state in 1842 and which as yet has not worked to advantage in Oklahoma. (That is still in the platform. How long?) Taft's attack on Bryan is not a personal one. He does not call Bryan by hard names. In this campaign the record of the two candidates Is the issue. Taft could not make a speech which would be a vital one without touching on Bryan, for there Is no democratic party. Bryan is all there Is to it. Taft can not ignore his opponent's record. There it is. That is the issue. A speech attacking Bryan's character would be obnoxious to those who do not like personalities. But in this case, Bryan is the party, Bryan is the platform, he Is also the candidate. How Is a man to attack the party and the platform without attacking Bryan. This case is therefore an exception. Bryan is the issue and Taft is not the coward to fear to take up the issue. Circumstances alter cases. This is the one year in the history of the country wnere the man and not the individual issue is of paramount importance. Torturing Animals To Assist Science Is a Cruel Method to Follow, But It Has Saved Many Human Lives. Prof. Pawlow, of Russia, was en gaged for many years in experimental work, trying to learn the workings of digestion, especially the digestive glands. . He, with able assistants, operated upon dogs, cats, guinea pigs and other animals. His methods were seemingly painful, but he gave to science a work which won the Nobel prize and made for him an undying fame. Science penetrated the secrets of nature. Prof. Pawlow saw animals digest food. He analyzed juices from every part of the digestive canal and stomach under all conditions of digestion. He spent years of ceaseless study amid the howling and dying beasts, but he won, and science today looks upon him as a great man. "To do a great right do a little wrong" Shakespeare .said and Prof. Pawlow obeyed thisTtrlte saying. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are prepared by the most scientific process. They are produced by modern appliances, and meet the -demand of 20th century chemistry. They give man the means to correct his infirmities of stomach and digestive organs. They enrich the blood, give nature the Juices and fluids she lacks, stop the formation of noxious gases and the fermentation of food. They neutralize powerful acids and alkalies, which irritate and devour the stomach. They prevent and relieve bowel and intestinal trouble and soothe the nerves. They should be used after every meal whether one has dyspepsia and stomach trouble or the stomach be naturally healthy. By their use one may eat at all hours and whatever one desires and they help the system digest or throw off such food. They are thoroughly meritorious as their tremendous sale and popularity illustrate. Every drug store has them for sale, ' price 50c per package. If you would like to test their merits free, send us your name and address and we will send you a trial package by mail without cost. Address F. A. Stuart Co., 150 Stuart Bldg., Marshall, Mich.

CHAPTER VII. OUTSIDE the police court Philip drew as invigorating a breath of fresh air as the atmosphere of Clerkenwell permitted. He knew that an Inspector of police and a couple of constables were gazing at him curiously through an office window, and the knowledge quickened his wits. It was worth even more than his liberty to realize that In all reasonable probability his meteor was safe as yet. The police had failed in their quest Whom else had he to fear? The company had Informed his mother that her "Goto on." he cried. "J'll make yer a present of that trip." tenancy of Johnson's Mews would not e disturbed before the 31st. Of course her death was known to the firm, but their written promise to her was verbally confirmed to Philip by the man ager. It was now the 25th. He had fivo clear days, perhaps six, in which to make all his arrangements. The forced seclusion of the prison had helped Mm In one way It gave him a programme, a detailed plan. Each step had been carefully thought out, and Isaacstein's office was the first stage in the cam paign. A prowling hansom passed. Philip whistled. "Where's the fare?" demanded tho cabman angrily, looking up and down the street. "Drive me to Holborn viaduct, quick," said the boy, with his foot on the step. Cabby eyed him with scorn. "What's the gyme?" be growled. "D'yer tyke me for a mug, or what?" "Oh, don't talk so much!" cried Philip impatiently. "Are you afraid I won't pay you? Seel If you lose no more time, I will give you this," and he held up a two shilling piece for the cabman's edification. It Is difficult to surprise your true Cockney whip. The man carefully folded the evening paper he bad been reading, stuffed It under the strap which held his rug and cape and chirruped to his horse: Kim up, lazy bone! We've got a millionaire crossln' sweeper inside. What, ho! Any bloomin' perfesslon is better 'n drivin a keb." The run was shorter than Philip anticipated, but, true to his promise, he proffered the two shillings. The cabman looked at him. Something in the boy's face seemed to strike him as curious, and, notwithstanding Philip's rags, his skin was scrupulously clean. "Gow on," he cried. "I'll make yer a present of that trip. 'Ope it'll glv yer a fresh 6tawt in the world. Kim up, will yer!" And the hansom swung away Into the traffic, leaving the boy standing on the pavement on the north side of the viaduct. He made a mental note of the cab's number. It was easy to remember three 8's and a 9 and walked on toward Hatton Garden. Meanwhile the cabman after varying luck drove to his yard, changed horses, secured a fare to a theater and Joined the Haymarket rank while he took a meal in the cabmen's shelter. "What's today's bettin' on the National?" he asked a friend. The evening paper was passed, and he cast an eye over Its columns. Suddenly he ripped out a string of expressions that amazed his companions. "What's the matter, Jimmie? Missed a 20 to 1 chance at Lincoln V "Great Scott I thought he'd lift the roof off!" "Go easy, mate. There's lydles outside." But the cabman still swore and gazed round eyed at the sheet And this Is what he read: The boy. Philip Morland, whose possession of a collection of meteoric diamonds of great value has created so mucb sen saUan. wy brovfci- uo n - ooo

Tracy, marra loaay ax -trie CitVKeffWeir police court and released. Mr. Abingdon thought fit to hear the case In camera, so this ragged urchin is wandering about London again with a pocketful of gems. He was last seen entering a cab In the neighborhood of the police court, and inquiry by our representative at the Hatton Garden offices of Mr. Isaacsteln. the diamond merchant. wose name has figured in connection with the case, elicited the information that Morland called thereabout S p.' m. Mr. Isaacsteln positively refused to make any further statement for publication, but It Is probable that developments in this peculiar and exciting affair will take place at any moment. In a word, the Journalistic world was exceedingly wroth with both Mr. Abingdon and Mr. Isaacsteln for balking it of a very readable bit of news. No effort would be spared to defeat their obvious purpose. Philip must be discovered by hook or by crook and badgered incessantly until be divulged the secret of the meteor. At last the cabman became lucid. "I'm doner he groaned. "My brains are a fuzzball. 'Ere, some one drink my beer! I'm goln' in fer cowcow. I 'ad this young spark In my keb tod'y an' didn't know it. 'E offered me two bob, 'e did, an' I stood 'lm a drive as a treat, e looked sicb a scarecrow." "Who's next?" cried a raucous voice at the door. "I am!" roared the disappointed one. "Well, look sharp. There's a hold gent a-wavin 'is humbreller like mad" "Keep 'im. Don't let 'im go. I'll be there in 'arf a tick. Who knows? P'raps it's Rothschild." Meanwhile Philip did not hesitate an Instant once he reached Isaacstein's office. A new note in his character was revealing Itself. Always resolute, fearless and outspoken, now he was confident He pushed open the swing door with the manner of one who expects his fellows to bow before him. Was be not rich, able to command the services of men? Why should be falter? He forgot his rags, forgot the difficulties and dangers that might yet beset his path, for in very truth he had achieved but little actual progress since he first entered that office five days earlier. ' But he had suffered much since then, and suffering had strengthened him. Moreover, be had taken the measure of Isaacsteln. There was a score to be wiped off before that worthy and he entered Into amicable business relations. The instant the youth behind the grille set eyes on Philip he bounded back from the window and gazed at him with a frightened look. Had this young desperado broken out of prison and come to murder them all? "Help! Help!" be shouted, "Murder!" Clerks came running from the inner office, among them the elderly man who interfered in Philip's behalf on the last occasion. "Make that idiot shut up," said Philip calmly, "and tell Mr. Isaacsteln I am here." The office boy was silenced, and the excitement calmed down. Yes, the diamond merchant was In. If rhllip would walk upstairs to the waiting room, his presence would be announced. "Thank you," he said, "but kindly see that this urchin does not let others know I am here. I don't want a crowd to be gathered in the street when I come out." ' Such cool Impudence from a ragamuffin was intolerable, or nearly so. But Isaacsteln ruled his minions with a rod of Iron, and they would fain wait the little man's pleasure ere they ventured their wrath on the boy. Besides, they were afraid of Philip. Like most people In London, they had read the newspaper reports of tie police court proceedings, and they were awed by his strangely Incomprehensible surroundings. So he was silently ushered upstairs, and soon Ise caught the thick voiced order of Isaacsteln: "Show him in." Isaacsteln, however, dived into his private snnctum before Philip entered the general oflice. The boy found him there seated at his table. The duel began with questions: "How did you get out so soon? Ton were remanded for a week." "Are you going to send for a policeman?" "Don't be rude, boy, but answer me." 'I am not here to satisfy your curiosity, Mr. Isaacsteln. I have called simply on a matter cf business. It Is sufficient for you to know that Mr. Abingdon has set me at liberty and restored my property to me. Do you wish to del with me or not?" The diamond merchant tingled with anger. He was not accustomed to being browbeaten even by the represent-( atives of the De Beers company, yet here was a callow youngster addressing him in this outrageous fashion, betraying, too,, an Insufferable air of contempt in voice and manner. He glared at Philip in silent wrath for an Instant. The boy smiled. He took from his pocket the paper of diamonds and becan to. count thern. The action said

plainly: "You know you cannot send me sway. If I go to your trade rivals, you will lose a magnificent opportunity. You are in my hands. No matter how rude I am to you, you must put up with it." Nevertheless he made an effort to preserve his tottering dignity. "Do you think," he said, "that you are behaving properly In treating a man of my position la such a way in his own office?" In his own office that was the sting of It! The head of the firm of Isaacsteln & Co. of London, Amsterdam and Kimberley to be bearded in such fashion In bis own particular shrine! Wby, the thing was monstrous 1 Philip looked him squarely In the eyes. "Mr. Isaacsteln, he said calmly, "have you forgotten that you caused me to be arrested as a thief and dragged handcuffed through the open streets by a policeman? I have spent five days In Jail because of you. At the moment when I was praising your honesty you were conveying secret signals to your clerks in the belief that I was something worse than a pickpocket Was your treatment of me so free from blame at our first meeting as to serve as a model at the second?" The chair was creaking now continuously. The man swung from side to side during this lecture. He strove hard to restrain himself, but the feverish excitement of Saturday returned with greater intensity than ever. He Jumped up, and Philip imagined for a second that robbery with violence was imminent. "Confound It all, boy, yelled the merchant "what was I to do when a ragged loafer like you came In and showed me a diamond worth a thousand pounds and told me he had dozens, hundreds, more like it? Did you expect me to risk standing in the dock by your side? Who could have given fairer evidence in your behalf than I did? Who proved that you could not have stolen the stones? Whom have you to thank for being at liberty now but the expert who swore that no such diamonds had been seen before in this world?" Philip waited until the man's passion had exhausted itself. Then be went on coolly: "That is your point of view, I suppose. Mine is that you could have satisfied yourself concerning all these points without sending me to prison. However, this discussion is beside the present question. Will you buy my diamonds?" Isaacsteln recovered his seat. He wiped his face vigorously, but the trading Instinct conquered bis fury. "Yes," iie snapped. "How much do you want for them?" "I notice that their value steadily Increases. The first time yon saw this diamond" and be held up the stone originally exhibited "you said it was worth 600 or 700. Today you name a thousand: However, I will take your own valuation for this unimportant collection and accept 50 GOO." (Continued.)
