The evening meal is a feast to the weary

greatest JOY Of all.
Hard work is the best of all cures for

Thank God you can work!
Though your office labor strains your

and vitality-be glad TO be living, an ac-

You must earn YOU amusements before
you can enjoy them. Ennui has no part
In the strenuous life.
Be glad, for conscience sake, that you

Thank God you can work!
When sorrow and grief come, when you

Thank God that you can work-that you

A MONUMENT TO m'kINLEY.
His Heroism at Antietam TO BE Com
memorated by a Shaft.

meWloFdtou ny q oHdII
I.eslie's Weekly: The most striking
incident Of the soldier life OF the late
President william Mckinley will be i'm
m~ortalized by granite and ronze on
January 80, 1903, at Columbus, the
Ohio Antietam battlefield commission
awarded the contract TO erect a monu-
ment on the spot where Mckinley as a
mere soldier boy served his comrades
with hot coffee on the firing line. The
entire contract provides for the erection
or ten monuments in honor OF the sew
eral Ohio regiments and batteries which
took part in that bloody battle, but.
without a doubt, the most unique n
one in which the people of the United
states VIII be most interested Is the
Mckinley monument. 1t VIII be re-
membered that This battle was fought
September II, 1862. on Maryland soil,
and that the Twenty-third Ohio regi-
ment was an important factor In the
fight. Belonging TO the famous TWEEN
ty-third were two men who afterward
became presidents of the United States,
Hayes and Mckinley, as well as a long
line OF other distinguished men. Per-
haps no other battlefield commission,
either in Ohio or the other states of the
union, will have so pretty a sentiment
to enlarge Upon as this heroic act in the
life of the beloved Mckinley.

a companion not long before his tragic
death, President Mckinley said, in
speaking of the coffee incident, that he
knew the boys must be hungry and
thirsty fl"m their long service under
fire, and concluded to take them some
coffee. With one of the supply wagons
he started for the line when he was
stopped by q superior officer and or
dered back.
What did you do?" asked his COM
panion.
II waited until the officer had passed
on and then proceeded to where the
boys were fghting,' said the president.
The u to mark this sacred
spot has been designed b.! he Hughes
Granite and Marble company Of Clyde,
Ohio, whose plant is within eight miles
Of the lakewood cemetery at Fremont,
where lies the dust OF President Hayes.
The monument Is a cylindrical shaft, 81
feet 6 inches high, Surmounted by a
granite eagle on a granite ball. Upon
q corner OF the die rests an ~allegorical
figure of Peace and Bereavement"
holding q palm branch. Two basrelief
portraits of Mckinley, one representing
him at the time he entered the army
M the other just before his untimely
death at Buffalo, appear on the die. on
the face of the lower die will be a
bronze battle scene representing the
central idea of the Whole scheme by
showing Mckinley, the soldier boy,
serving hot coffee to his comrades un-
der fire. The Ohio Legislature has APP
propriated nearly $780, 600 for the ten
monuments, of which $4,000 is espe-
cially appropriated for the Mckinley
monument. The purpose is to have it
the finest monument on the battlefield.
