Do you mean with a compass and pencil? If so, put the point of the compass on one end of the line. Set the radius to more than half of the line and describe an arc above and below the line.

Then move the point of the compass to the other end of the line, and keeping the radius the same, prescribe arcs above and below the line so that the arcs intersect the initial arcs. Then join the points of intersection (one on each side of the line) and you will have bisected the line. (It's easier to see with illustrations).
