HFANliY INSIIREH

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. civilian M.
Runk of the extensive dry goods firm of
Darlington, Runk & CO., died this morn
ing at his country home near this city.
1t has developed that RuEk had been for
some time. during Darlington's absence,
dealing in stocks. 1t appears that Runk,
whose own personal estate Is handsome
one, did not make these ventures with his
own funds. but, aided by the absence of
Darlington, he employed the money of the
firm TO an aggregate OF about $50, 900. Up
on parllngton's return he was informed
by Runk that certain bills had accumu-
lated in the interval aggregating the total
stated above.
When the discovery was made yesterday
afternoon that such was not the case,
Runk went direct to his home He wrote
two letters and left them upon the library
table. addressed to Mrs. RuEk and to
Darlington, and acquainted them with
the cause for his ac6 of self destruction.
The death of Runk may prove to be
heavy loss. He was director of the Penn
Mutual company of this city. and at the
time of his death carried an insurance of
1925, 600 upon his life. Runk WAS very
promipenG in church work, and was a
member OF the Brotherhood OF St. An

MRS. HARRlsoN,s CONDITION.

| NEW YORK, Oct GA Washington dis
patch to a morning paper says that cloud
of dependency has gathered about the ex-
ecutive manson; for the president, his
family and his intimate friends now re-
alize that Mrs. Harrison is beyond recov-
cry. They have fought against that belief
for many weeks past, and the physicians
have sought to hold ont hope, but the
truth has at last been faced, and they feel
convinced now that no earthly skill can
bring the sufferer back TO health. The
mental and physical strain on the presi-
dent during the past two months has been
great and has left its mark upon him.
Mr.. Harrison is a most downcast man.
His devotion to his family is one of the
beautiful features of his life. Yesterday,
at the cabinet meeting, Mr.. Harrison, for
the first time, spoke of the great afiictlon
which is hanging over him. His advisers
considerably withdrew, seeing that he
was too deeply moved to discuss affairs OF
state under such trying circumstances.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6-Aside from the
usual change characteristic of consump-
tive Cases, there has been no particular
alteration in the condition Of Mrs Harri-
son since she was brought to Washington
from Loon Lake two weeks ago. Although
critically i'll aud in condition where a
new complication might speedily prove
fatal, her case is not absolutely hope
less People in similarly extremely
dangerous condition, nave often So far re-
covered as TO enjoy their health for years.
The president aud his family aud friends
cling to the hope that Mrs. HarrlsoC's
case may prove an exception to The rule.
The great danger TO be feared is repro
duction of fluid in the chest cavity, which
might gather in twenty-four honrs and
prove fatal. Mrs. Harrson's right lung is
entirely consolidated, so that she has no
use OF it whatever. The lett lung is not
involved.
Although anxious for prolonged life. the
patient does not exhibit that cheerfulness
and hopefulness that is usually 50 appar
enC IN the case OF consumptives. This is
due to ne nervous exhaustion from which
she suffers This extreme proStration has
been the one great cause which has Oper-
ated against her railying. Her mind is
perfectly clear and she takes A certain
amount of noarishment each day.
Probably the most noticeable result of I

One of these is expressed in an old rhyme which is familiar to us all: Chnnge the name and not the letter, You change for the worse ana not for the better [" Another is that the Gay must be fine, m accordance with the old-tirne saw: Happy is the bride the sun shines on" Blessed are the dead that the rain rains or -' There is still another superstition poeticaily rendered that brides ward robe must contain.
 'Snmething old and sornethinr new,
 Something borrowed. something blue" It is considered very bad fortune for a bride to make her own wedding cake or to have anything to do with 1t; and, strange as it may seem, it has been ob- served over and over again in unhappy marriages that the bride had stirred the wedding cake.
 To lose the wedding ring in the first month of marriage augurs great mis- fortune. To lose it at any time is sup posed to predict calamity. There is an explanation of ,his superstition which is ot the same theory that time will cure all ills:

She Did Not Receive an Invitation.


 It IS the part of wisdom to avoid dis cussion of ones private affairs in pub lie places 4 London journal relates that recently the wife of a cabinet minister went out of town for day or two, the week before she was to hold big official reception. She got into a railway carriage in which were a young lady and, apparently. her aunt, her intrusion being much resented by the young lady, who did not scruple to express her annoyance at the invasion of her privacy, and altogether tried to make things as awkward and uncom- fortable as possible for the newcomer. The latter. however, settled down be- hind her own paper till she was aroused by the sound of her own name. Are you going to Mrs -'s recep- tion?' the young lady was asking her aunt Yes, the aunt was going.
