Ben Frauklin's Son.

Not long siuce, in conversation with a
friend, who was u graduate of Harvard,
and man of good general information,
! made mention of DR.. Franklin'a son.
He was astonished. You don't mean

did. And l have since found that a
great many we'll resd Americans are
ignorant of that fact-that il, that
franklin had aon in public life.
This sons name was William. He
was born In Philadelphia in 1871 In
his youth he was rs fond Of books as bis
father had been. Thrangh h;s E.,her's
influence, he obtained several very lucra.
tive Offices, aud in 1862. he was appoint

which office he retained until the break.
ing out of the war. And here, sad to re.
late, he was rs earnest in his support OF
the royal authority. as wns his rnther in
support OF liberty and Independence.
Alter varinns adventures on this side,
in all of which he was hitter against
the Patriot host Of his native land, he
made his way to England, where he re.
manned until be died, recipient of
naany favors at the hands of George III.
He died in 1918. at the age Of eighty two.
As might be supposed, his opposition
to the cause of liberty, so dear to the
heart of his father, produced an estrange.
ment between them. For years they
had no intercourse. In 1894 William
wrote TO his father. and, after the Doc.
tors death, the letter was found and
published. In reply 10 that letter, DR..
Frankli said: ""Nothing has ever hurt
me 30 much. and affected me with such
keen sensalions Of regret, as to find my.
self deserted In my old age by my only
snn and not only deserted but to find
him taxing up arms against me In a cause
wherein my good fame, fortune and life
were at s,ake."
In his will, also. the Doctor allgdes to
the part his son had acted. After max.

20, Lor', Hit I'm Again."

In the early days of Methodism
in Scotland, certain congregation,
where there was but one rich man,
desired to build new chapel. a
church meeting was held. The old
rich Scotohmanrose and said: 'fBreth-
rem. we dinna need a new chapel;
III give five pounds for repairs.
Just then bit OF plaster falling
from the ceiling hit him on the head.
Looking up and seeing how bad it
was. he said SO Brethren, its worse
tbon THOUGHT; III make it 80 pun"
40 Lord" exclaimed a devoted
brother on back seat, chit i'm
againI"
There are many human tabernacles
which are in sore need of radical
building over, but we putter and fuss
and repair in spots without satisfac-
tory results. 1t is only when we are
personally alarmed at the real danger
that we act independently, and do
the right thing. Then it is that we
most keenly regret because We did
not sooner use our judgment, follow
the advice born OF the experience OF
others, and jump away from our
perils.
Thousands of persons who will
read this paragraph are in abject
misery to-day when they might be
in a satisfactory condition. They are
weak, lifeless, full OF odd aches and
pains, and every year they know
they are getting worse, even though
the best doctors are patching them
in spots. The origin OF these aches
and pains is the kidneys and liver,
and if they would build these all
over new with Warmers Safe Cure,
as millions have done, and cease in
vesting their money in miserably I'M
successful patchwork, they would be
well and happy, and would bless the
day when the Lord "hit 'em' and
indicated the common sense course
for them to pursue.-tLondon Press.
