derstand a man who's had such hard lines
as to lose the folks he cares for. sitting
down and making up his mind he won't
care for anything any more. But l can't
understand a live man asking to be buried
anywhere. What mans got to do in
this world is to take hold of something,
and never be coutented till he's got it up
by the roots. He'll never get it up. sir,
not if it's worth getting; but he'll find
pretty considerable pleasure in tuggiug
at it, and he'll have his heart full, and his
mind full, and his hands full, and that's /.
mighty comfortable thing, according to
my way of looking at it, SIR
Paul, in spite of his Partisan purchases,

the end of a broad silk ribbon; he wore no
jewelry. and his raimeut, though it was
little bright and loud, was precisely such
as any working artist might have worn.
His plain ways and water-drinking habits,
taken in conjunction with these things,
fully recouciled Medhurst to the idea of
fleeing the young man ever so little, and
making his own hard nest softer with the
proceeds. If a millionaire had no expens-
i've tastes, of what use were his millions
to him, and why should not part of his
superabundance flow over upon others
less blessed by fortune, but more blessed
by Nature with the power of using money!
As the winter sun rose into the pure sky,
Paul Jones ceased to talk and devoted
himself altogether to a rapt contempla-

left the falling snow behind; but after it,

with wild sterile hills. and at last the sea,

TAe Death Of the Reynolds.

The sudden cutting down Of Mr.. Rey-
nOlds comes as great shock to this
cummunity, of which he has so long been
= prominent ornament. Death is busy
with Us this year, and II is notable that
, second shaft so soon should have fol-
lowed the one that entered this family
connection but few weeks ago to take
away Col. Fordney.
Mr.. Reynolds shining talent as an
orator enabled him to take a prominent
place In our community. soon after he
came 10 II from Centre county; and
there Is probably no one in 1t
now who has wider acquaintance and
whose death would attract more atten-
tlon. He has had an active and very
succeesful career at the bar, from which
he but this year retired with an ample
fortune. His success as a lawyer was
based upon his pleasing oratory and ad-
dress and his skill in the handling Of
witnesses, rather than upon profound
legal erudition, of which, however, he
had all that be needed. He inspired
the confidence Of his clients, had
great aptness In pleasing those
whom he desired 10 attract and a
great facility in commanding good fees.
He was well equipped naturally and
artificially for the position In which he
found himself, and he arose with case and
speed to the leading place he held at this
bar.
He was a welcome and prominent
member in all assemblies, and the social
life Of the town, to which he contributed
% much by the handsome entertain
ments he was fond Of giving, will
greatly miss him aud so will all the
people, for whom he had ever
. pleasant smile and nod. The sympa-
thy Of the community is with his family
in full measure in the loss of its kind
head, who was n good citizen and
always a gentleman.

Those Niagara Falls.

There il good reason to doubt that
either Graham or Brodie went over the
Niagara Falls. Whether they would he
worthy Of admiration If they did the
deeds Is point that may be disputed,
but II does not seem that IA calm weigh
ing of the matter can leave them much
glory. 1t took wonderful pluck to go
over the falls and that quality may be
admired as We admire the nerve of n
murderer on the gallows--with feel
Ing Of regret that so admirable quality
should be SO displayed. The Niagara
daredevil voluntarily faces death, but
then death Is doubtless more terrible

faint chance Of life for the fall, s,jumper
II capable Of wonderful eXaggera-
ton under the magic Of hope. a suicide
who goes over the falls for the purpose
Of dying gets no admiration for pluck I;
man who goes over for the purpose of
living In greater notoriety hatters public
opinion by offering his life for admira-
ton, and 1t seems mean to refuse him.
But where is the line to he drawn? If
Rrodie should 60 up out of sight over
Niagara in balloon and drop upon the
falls without = parachute from a height
Of several thousand feet, with the inten-
ton Ofsubsequently meandering through
the whirlpool, he would be emphatically
declared crazy, and would receive as
little admiration for pluck as If he
should put the muzzle of shotgun in
his mouth with the declared intention
Of digcsting q charge of buckshot.
The deed that Brodie is sail
% haye done is so near to this line of in
sahe daring that to those who have
looked upon that fearful scene ii seems
incredible that he could have accom-
plished II and live. II he had been killed
be would be classed with the lunatic who
jumped from monument in Paris under
the impression that he could soar away
like an eagle as he lives, there are those
who, If they believe he did the deed,
VIII glorify his courage and condone his
folly.

Windows WAY.

The secretary of the treasury says that
It ID all mistake to say that the public

The Senate Ipauiry.

The testimony taken by the Senate
committee now inquiring at Kansas
City into the meat supply, all goes to
show that combination exists Of the
four great meat packers, where, In they
have agreed to keep every one else out
of the business, TO divide the territory of
the United States between themselves,
and 10 become the only customer Of the
cattle raiser, and the only provider of
meat for the people. With this
revelation their ought 10 be a

to Jail. The laws surely ought TO beat
down such company. The senators
who are elciting this testimony should
see that IL Is made available by the OIL
GERS of the law. And IL the law Is
really SO limp as TO permit such rascality
they should now have trouble In seeing
their way 10 its amendment.

TnE young duke of Portland, whose
marriage not long ago made great stir in
England and whose famous. underground
palaces and stables have been ranked
among the wonders of the world, has eS-
cited another Kind of wonder by posing as
the president of horse home. This i- not
organized on the principles OF societies for
the prevention of cruelty to animals, but II
Is intended to aid the men whose living de-
pends upon their horses. When the latter
are disabled they arc received into the
home for rest and good feeding and a
substitute Is furnished on moderate terms.
Last year ninety patients were received on
subscribers letters, but many cases have
to be refused for lack of funds. Thore IL a
farm for the recreation of run down horses
and the home itsolf Is close TO London.
This seems 10 be a much more practical
sort of humanity 10 man and beast than
the variety often displayed by our humane
societies who may punish poor man for
using a suffering horse without bothering
themselves about the necessities Of either.

>NS ~'SN NNA~ o'~A A'cA~
ago we began our talk to this
community and the country at
large about Clothes for Men
and Boys. In some form the
talk has been daily. Sundays
and holidays excepted, ever
since.
You look over your school
day compositions and ask,
did | ever write that stuff"
So ace, browsing over our past
Clothing Advertising, are dis
posed to ask the same ques-
ton. But whatever we may
think Of it as literature, it has
the quality Of truth from first to
last, and that made our Cloth
ing business.
Talk like this has little space
in the announcements of the
September Limited Sale. A
Bargain flavor is presumed to
pervade it. Well, there are
Bargains in the Clothing. But
the thought Of the opening sea
son is upon the excellence and
completeness of the stock. We
must express it.
Men may find comfort and
style, economy and durability
in the great stock now open
and ready; Boys may find-or
their elders for them-the high
est clothing skill Of the period.
The mothers come here natur-
ally. 1t would be against ma
ture for us to neglect the stock
of Boys Clothing. 1t is not
neglected. On the contrary,
we take a long step higher in
Boys Clothing this season. Ten
minutes in the stock or a glance
into the case in the Chestnut
street entrance will prove the
truth OF our assertion.
