father with all his staid ideas and
business qualities unimpaired is
transformed into the boy as far as

mischievous pranks and the tricks

is transformed back to his original
shape are amusing. There is plenty
of chance for fun making in such q
plot.

The pastor, Rev. J. II. Littell took
for his text a verse from the book Of
Job, 14:2. He cometh forth like a
flower and is cut down"
Referring to the martyred Pres:-
dent the preacher said in substance:
The text may be applied to the life
of every good man. but has a most
fitting application to him whose de-
parture causes our nation to-day to
sit In the valley and shadow of DEATH
Forgetting in this moment, all poll
teal faiths and policies, and without
an element of controversy, as a ma
ton united we stand with bowed
heads and sorrowing hearts as We
hear on every size the words, Our
President is dead
What feelings of Indignation are
aroused at the foul and fiendish act
which struck down the renowned life
What thrill of regret and disap-
pointment steals through the heart as
We tHlilh VI Hfo lire anu tn dtHteNc-
ments, his character and its influences
and his home wanting his love and
care,-all cut off so suddenly and I'M
timely Surely his sun has gone down
while it is yet day.
THE boast of heraldry, the pomp Of
power,
And all that beauty, all that wealth
Await alike the inevitable hour
The paths of glory lead but to the
grave"
We can but bow in submission to the
Divine will. and say with the dying
President. ut is Gods way. His will
be done"
Life and death, the beginning and
the end are very closely joined to-
gether He cometh forth" And is
cut down"
Mans growth of body and soul is
like the tender branch which comes
forth in the spring-time. 1t is nour-
ished by the soil, and rains and sun
shine, and is strengthened by the

forth its flower, the sweet perfumes OF
which scent the air.
At Niles, Ohio, in 1S43, President
Mckinley was born. Passing through
the stages of growth, education, cul-
ture,-the flower of his life beautified
the home and the nation. He was a
tender, loving, model husband. He
was a Christian man. 1T is enough
to say that his political opponents
have rated his abilities more highly
than his political supporters; and
that European observers have rated
them more highly than have Ameri-
cans"
With sad regret we must say this
great life is ended. God has various
methods Of gathering His flowers.
