county's most prosperous farmers in
the hills of East Franklin, was in
Meadville this week. Senator McGehee
says that the beef trust and high prices
of meat is not in any manner disturb

The Central Conference of American
Rabbis, the body which represents the
ministerial leaders of the Reformed
Jewish Church in America, is holding
its annual session in New Orleans this
week. They will discuss theologi-
cal questions, among which will
be the change of day for Sabbath.
We note that Rabbi Lewinthal, well
known to many in this city, is the
leader of the discussion on this i'm
portant subject.

An egg trust doesn't mean that you
trust the eggs-they are getting more
uncertain as the thermometer pro-
ceeds. Eggs are full of meat, is an
old saying, and this may account for
their going into trust along with the
flesh of animals. 1t is said, however,
that goats are excluded-also cats,
dogs, etc, but that these will appear in

Everyday courage is greater and of
more real and effectual value, often
times, than the heroism of battlefields
and scourges. To have the courage to
speak the truth, to resist temptation,
to be what we really are, to live hon
estly according to our own means, to
deal fairly with our neighbor in the
small things of lie all require courage
and mastery over self and selfish de-
sires.

In very humble cot,
In rather quiet spot,
In the suds and in the soap.
Worked a woman full of hope;
Working, singing, all alone,
In a sort Of uAdertone.
with Savior for friend,
lie will keep me to the end"
Sometimes happening along,
had heard the semisong,
And often used to smile,
More In sympathy than guile;
But 1 never said word
In regard to what | heard.
As she sang about her friend.
Who would keep her to the end"
Not in sorrow nor in glee,
Working all day long was she,
As her children, three or four,
Played around her on the floor;
But on monotones the song,
She was humming all day long,
with the Savior for a friend,
He will keep me to the end"
It's song do not sing.
For ! scarce believe a thing
OF the stories that are told,
OF the miracles of old;
But | know that her belief
Is the anodyne of grief,
And will always be friend
That will keep her to the end.
Just a trifle lonesome she,
Just as poor as poor could be,
But her spirits always rose
Like the bubbles in the clothes;
And. though widowed and alone,
Cheered her with the monotone,
OF a Savior and a friend
Who would keep her to the end.
have seen her rub and scrub
On the dashboard in the tub,
While the baby sOpped in sudS,
Rolled and tumbled in the buds;
Or was padding in the pools.
With old scissors stuck in SpoOlS,
She still humming of her friend
Who would keep her to the end.
Human hopes and human crceds
Have their root in human needs;
And i would not wish to strip
From that WaSherwoman' lip
Any song that she can sing.
Any hopes that song can bring;
For the woman has a friend.
Who will keep her to the end.

| London. Aug. 4.-New preparations
| for the coronation Of King Edward
| which event is to take place Aug. g.
are proceeding rather mechanically.
| The erection of the familiar street
barriers, the cleansing and decorating
OF the stands and the rehanging OF
| decorations attract slight attention.
The outward preparations are an old
story, but public interest in the actual
proceedings is rekindled by official as
surance that the king is getting on
finely and that his majesty is ready to
bear the fatigue of being crowned at
the weeks end
The publication of the official pro.
gramme of the procession shows no
special changes from the original ar
rangement, but the ceremonies in
Westminster abbey have been cur
tailed by the omission of the Litany
and sermon and by the recital of the
recognition once instead of four times,
new series of rehearsals have be-
gun at the abbey with dignified move
ments and recitals, and these are far
iiciS 'ihl'i w IMAM any SOi
nected with the street spectacle.
Won't Replace Street Decorations.
The city council of Westminster, in
compliance with the kings wishes,
has voted that no further eXpendi
lures be incurred in replacing the
street decorations. The clubhouses.
which line a considerable portion of
the route. and most of the other build
ings are being redecorated, the Cana
dian arch is being redressed with
fresh specimens of Canada's agricul
tural products, and the Indian cOntin-
gent is erecting an arch in Parlia-
ment street.
The Examinations on coronation
night will be largely as originally
planned. The vicinity of the Bank of
England. the Royal Exchange and the
Mansion House will be blaze of cleo
trio lights, and the Strand, Trafalgar
square. Whitehall, Pail Mall St
James square and Piccadilly will be
gorgeous with Examinations, many of
which will be displayed on Kitchener

CRISIS HASN'T ARRIVED YET.
Believed That Vanderbilt's Heart
Is Causing Anxiety.
Erpv-EJ.JC

Fl.1C SPECIAL
New York. Dec. BIN spite of the guard
ed statements of his physicians Cornelius
Vanderbilt. who is now approaching tha
critical stage Of typhoid fevc-. is regarded
as very i'll, and his friends ar. beginning to
be arprehens:ve.
The first really disquieting bulletin that
has been issued from the bedside Of the pa
tient vas communicate h. Doctor Austin
Flint. Jr.. to-day. 1t reads as follows:
While Mr.. Vanderbilt IS very i'll his con-
dition is fairly satisfactory. There has been
no material change in his condition since
last night except. perhaps he is Il lit;l.
stronger. As yet there have been no com
plications. but the crisis has not yet ar
rived"
There has been increased activity about
the Vanderbilt reSi!ci CO on the part OF the
physicians in attendance since Wednss-
day.
The impression gains ground that Mir.
Vanderbilt'S heart is causing distress to his
physicians. He is not robust and has suf-
fered 4 great deal from illness in his life.
The necessity has arisen for the admins
tration of large amounts Of sti:nu,ants. in
dicating that the heart action is not salts
factory.
Doctor Flint said to-day. experimenting
the statement in the bulletin. that there j.
no cause for real alarm. hut H. does not
disguise the fact that he thinks the si;Ua-
ton most serious.
