IN PRAISE OF SUCCESS.

The most audacious of all the many
baccalaureate discusses of June 81,
which the newspapers have reported,
was that OF President Buckham of the
University of Vermont. He actually
praised the engineers of our great
material machine. our men who make
the wheels go round-captains of in
dustry, great manufacturers, mer-
chants and financiers. A sentiment
that more or less prevails holds that
these chiefs find the cash rewards of
their leadership so ample that there
is no need TO add praise to their sub
stantial gains. But Or. Buchanan did
praise them, as men vino by a process
which socialism calls exploiting and
Of which a fairer name is management
Of organization, create industry, thrift,
comforts, and Injuries which the
whole community shares" He said
they were among the finest products
OF our Christian civilization, and he
thought that both the press and the
pulpit were overmuch inclined TO run
them down. This almost amounts TO
praising success, but Il is the truth
that a large proportion of even COM
mercial and fiscal success is praise
worthy. The other day a visitor to a
thriving New York state city asked
two resident friends: who are the
big men in this town now? Who
takes the place in the community that
such men as Judge Green and Cover
nor Brown used to fill?" The two
residents discussed the question.
Finally they said, "Our leading men
are John Gray and Tom Sullivan"
Gray was an inventor who had
started an industry which had grown
TO worldwide fame and enormous
proportions. Sullivan was a con-
tractor who had come to be a very
able and successful organizer of manu-
featuring enterprises. they were men
Of an entirely different sort from the
judge and the governor, but they were
the men who were doing the most to
build up the towns industries ana
promote its prosperity, the men most
talked about and regarded as of most
important to the town. These two
arbiters-a lawyer and a capitalist
felt constrained to name as the big
men Of the place as being the men
whose work had been the most con-
spicuous and beneficial.-Harper'
Weekly.

LOVES GARLAND.

Pausies for thought-so let me lay
them here,
Gently; you must not waken. Take
your rest;
There, on your heart-pure thoughts
devoid OF fear.
Sweet, they are best.
Roses, for love-kissing your lips they
lie
Gemmed by the dew from out the
heavens above.
Dear, roses wither. but they can not
die
Roses for love.
Rosemary, for memory-wreathed
around your brow,
Saddest of fiowers-and yet they
can not be
Wholly of sorrow. So / Irvine them

In your pure heart one who did under
stand
life's bitterness.

HAD TO SAY SOMETHING.

A city missionary whose work keeps
her most of the time in the tenement
house districts is often called upon 20
harmonic discordant elements and
adjust the petty differences common
among residents of the slums. One
day the frowzy-headed and bedraggled
mistress of a "suite" of two woefully
dirty rooms on the fourth floor back"
of a tenement called "The Rookery"
complained as follows of neighbor:
shes turrible hard to git long
with, ma'am, an she amt got the first
instink o. a lady, ma'am."
81 hope you have never told her so"
said the missionary, gently.

THE FIRST ENGLISH BIBLE.

In 1926 William Tyndale produced
what is known as Tyndale's New Test
ament, which was the first portion OF
the scriptures ever printed in the Eng
lish language.
Ten years later Coverdale's Biblc
was printed and published. 1t pro-
tesses to be translated out of the
"Douche"-that is, German-and Lat
IN" into English by you're grace's
humble subjecte and daylye oratour.
Myles Coverdale."
One great part of Coverdale's work
has continued to the present day;
namely, his version of the Psalms. II
is well known to all students of the
text of the Psalms that the Prayer
Book Version differs widely from botn
the Authorized Version and Revised
Version text, and the difference is due
to the fact that in the liturgy the text
stands practically as it was printed in
the first complete English Bible. What
Is known as Cromwell's, or the Great
Bible. published in 1889, was also
edited by Coverdale; and the text OF
the Psalms in that edition differs in
many minor details from the text of
1885, and this revised text is nearly
identical with that now standing in the
Prayer-Book.-W. c. Bowdoin in the
Home Companion.

such material to make a steaming bed

judgment, SO as not to have your ma
terial burned by too much Goals or
heat, and yet be sure of enough heat
to finish the cooking. Potatoes, if
large, will need to cook longer than
the clans or corn. The latter should
be husked, with the exception of one
layer of husk over the kernels. Now
cover all with seaweed, and let the
mass steam for from twenty to forty
minutes. Frequent inspections, with
attending burns and sooty fingers, are
part of the fun.-Country Life in

SILENT LOVE.

Love, It's summer by the bough,
And the bird-its passion-vow;
But tits winter by thy silence.
Prithee, why so mute art thou?
Thou couldst make my heart to sing
Like the choristers of spring;
Thou couldst ease my lips of sigh

And my soul of sorrowing.
Be no uncompassionate,

For thy voice enkindles rapture
At the sound leaps JOY elate.

night, a great luminous star hung like
a torch held up by angel hands. Hilda
and Horace both looked at it as they
stood waiting, and / saw Hilda's lips
form themselves into the words "our
star of love" when she saw it.
The ceremony proper was very brief
and simple, and the two made their
responses in clear. unwavering voices,
but by the time the minister lifted his
hands to give the blessing, the last
vestige of light had flown and only the
soft silver of the twilight hung over
us like a veil.

SENATOR HANNA's SECRET.

OF all our bosses" so called,
Hanna is the most remarkable. 1t
was not till 1898 that anybody outside
of Ohio ever heard of him. Three
years later he was the most powerful
individual politician in the country
He made Mckinley governor, and re-
elected him. He conducted to
triumphant issue the fercest political
campaign in our history. He was the
commander of his party when a mar
yelous wave of prosperity swept over
the country. Like Caesar he has
never known defeat in a combat with
the enemy.
They say his secret is a very simple
thing. 1t never fails-it ever sue
ceeds, in the kings palace, and in the
shepherds cottage. 1t is this: Do
what you promise to DO. If you make
a pledge, keep it. That is the secret
of Hanna's success and of his power.
Ii is a lesson that no weak man can
learn, and that accounts for so many
failures in the world of politics. No
body but strong man can practice
Hanna's method, and that is why there
are so few Losses" of the first rank.

U. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommends Pe=ru=na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble
CdtdrTh of the Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia - Something
to Produce Artificial DigeS-
ton is Generally Taken.
Hence, PepSin, PanCreatin and Host
of Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat of the Difficulty, Which
is Really Catarrh.

TX-U. s. Senator NJ. G. Butler from
I, South Carolina was Senator from
that State for two terms. In a re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co.,
from Washington. d. c., says:
"T can recommend Peruna for dys-
pepSiR and stomach trouble. IbaVe
been using your medicine for a short
period and feel very much relieved.
IL Is indeed a wonderful medicine be-
sides a good tonic. IN. c. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dyspep-
STA is TO remove the catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce
artificial digestion. 1t cures catarrh and
leaves the stomach to perform digestion
in a natural way. This is vastly better
and safer than resOrting to artificial
methods.
Peruna has cured more cases of dys-
Depsia than all other remedies COM
biRed. simply because il cures catarrh
wherever located. If catarrh is located
in the head, Peruna cures il. IF catarrh
has fastened itself in the throat or
bronchial tubes, Peruna cures il. When
catarrh becomes settled in the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as well in this location
as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is
generally dependent upon catarrh.
