DR.. MANCHESIER7S 5 SERMON
Delivered at the Mckinley Funeral
in Canton.
A SWEET AND TENDER STORY.
McKinley's Devotion TO His Invalid wife
How the Dead Statesman Became
n Cbristian-The Worlds Grief over
Our Nations Loss.

The following is the full text OF the
sermon of DR.. c. E. Manchester at the
Mckinley funeral in Canton Thursday:
Our President is dead. THE silver cord
Is loosed, the golden bowl is broken, the
pitcher is broken at the fountain. the
wheel broken at the cistern. the mourn
ers go about the streets" "One voice is
heard-a wall of sorrow from all the land.
for the beauty OF Israel is slain upon the
high places. How are the mighty fallen!
l am distressed for thee, my brother.
Very pleasant hast thou been unto me.
our President is dead We can hardly
believe II. We had hoped and prayed
and IL seemed that our hopes were to be
realized and our prayers answered, when
the emotion of Joy was changed to one
OF grave apprehension. Still we waited,
for we said, 1T may be that God will be
gracious and merciful unto us" 1t
seemed to us that It must be his will to
spare the life of one so well beloved and
30 much needed. Thus, alternating be-
tween hope and fear the weary hours
passed on. Then came the tidings of a
defeated science, of the failure of love
and prayer to hold its object to the
earth. We seemed to hear the family
muttered words: Goodbye all, goodbye.

Tn. Ah.enc. Of u.

n there is any truth in the ying
that happiness is the absence OF all
pain. mental and physical, the enjoy
ment OF it can only be found in hea-
ven. But so far as the phy steal is con-
cerned. It is within easy reach; at
least measurably so, as far as cure will
60. The sum OF human misery in this
line is made up OF greater or less de
grees OF physical suffering. The minor
aches and pains which afilict mankind
are easy TO reach and as easily cured.
There are none in the whole category
which, II taken in time, cannot be
cured They must in some. form af-
flict the nerves. the bones, the muscles
and joints OF the human body. They
are all more or less hurtful and waste
full to the system St Jacobs Oil is
made to cure them to search out hid
den pain spots, and to cure promptly
in a true remedial and lasting way.
Very, very many have not known hap
piness for years till they used 1t, and
very many are putting on cure and
happiness because they don't use 1t.

A DISTINGUISHED MISSIONARY.

Washington, Ind, Sept. 23d.-There
is at present, living at 1O6 East 18th
street in this city, most remarkable
man. He is Rev. c. II. Thompson. and
he came to Washington from Little
York, Ind, short time ago.
Rev. Mr.. Thompson spent many
years of his long and useful life as a
missionary among the Indians of the
West. The great exposure and the
drinking of so much bad water brought
on Diabetes, and at Wagner, Indian
Territory, he was struck down while
preaching.
Physicians, one of them a Chicago
specialist, pronounced his case hope
less Dodd's Kidney Pills were recon-
mended, and as a last resort he tried
them. He was completely cured, and
restored to good health and his case
and its cure has caused a sensation
among the physicians.

Some Austrians living in Geneva
conceived the project of placing me-
mortal tablet in the Quai du Leman.
where the Empress Elizabeth was as
sassinated. The authorities, however.
refused their permission on the ground
that 1t would be improper to commem-
crate the deed of madman and help
to preserve his name. In place of the
tablet It is now proposed to erect a
chapel in honor of the empress.

Cutting School

The spring course of the Diamond
Garment Cutting School will open

new Engbretson building and from
then on the school will be in session
from 900 to 80 a. m. and from 1:3O
to $50 p. m.
This school is not established here
for years, but for weeks or months,
and while all will be thoroughly
taught who come in later, yet superior
advantages are secured to those who
become members of the school at
once.
AS stated in last issue a good work is
being done and all ladies we accept
will be thoroughly taught. That the
Diamond Garment Cutter will stand
the most critical test, is admitted by
all and as this is the only opportunity
the ladies of DEBORAH and surrounding
country will have for learning this
system it should be attended to at
once while the class is small.
Visit the school when open and see
the pupils, your own neighbors and
friends, at work cutting every possible
kind Of garment.
1t costs you nothing to investigate
and you will be welcomed and treated
courteously whether you take lessons
or not.
Whenever we find lady that has
taken instructions in one of our schools,
we are sure to find a. friend and one
who recommends our work.
The Diamond Garment Cutting Co.
are offering rare inducements to the
ladies, and by taking course in this
school novice may become all expert
ip a short time. The reason is, the
system is not applied to plain gar
ments, but embraces drafts for all
styles.
The system speaks for itself, exa.
mine it. Visitors will always be vel
coined when school is open, bat
especially on the opening day, remem.

Scheme Didn't Work.

Some time since an advertisement

signed Olaf n. Lee, of Rush ord /,
MINI, stating that he had been in
this country but short time. had
niue children, and on account of poor
health was unable to support his
family, and asked that the readers of
the paper send him as much as pos
sible. A large number of answers
were received and the letters were all
called for by young man named
Albert Hanson, who finally presented
large number of letters to the post
master, with letter purporting to be
signed by Olaf N. Lee. instructine
him to pay all money orders to Albert
Hanson. The postmistress became
suspicious because she knew of no one
by the name of Olaf N. Lee, had the
fellow arrested and then he plead
guilty and was bound over to the
grand jury. He is but 10 years old,
and said he thought he could get loi

Forty Years in Business.

Yesterday was the anniversary day
of the starting in business of j. J.
Marsh in DEBORAH. He has been in
the harness forty years, all the time
controlling his business alone, without
a partner. This certainly is the record
for DEBORAH, and we doubt lift is excel.
led in the state. A continuous business
for this long period, built up by honest,
fair dealings with his constituents, is q
record to be proud Of. His business is
criterion of the growth of the county.
He has experienced with it its ups and
downs, and as the county and its
people are prosperous and happy today,
SO is he, as frisky as a young colt, and
good for many added years of health
and business success, we hope. His
man, friends in all parts Of the county
join us in expressions of felicity and
best wishes for the future

"Yon Yonson," which seems to have
