IL Is the Greatest Moving Force In
the business World.
One OF the greatest millionaires Of
our country lived before he made his
millions on ss a week and at a time
when his income was $4,000 n year.
He saved all the rest of his salary for
judicious investments. He had been n
poor boy, accustomed TO a frugal mode
of life. He began his career in the city
sweeping out a store for $3.50 week.
Later he was advanced to $3.50. The
mode Of living which he was obliged to
adopt as a boy he considered quite
good enough for later years, especially
when he saw that by denying himself
for awhile longer he might make the
experiences and hard knocks he had
gained count for more than mere liv-
ing. He might have argued that he
was doing pretty well to earn $4,000 n
year and that be deserved to enjoy it.
But he preferred TO use his earnings to
make more money that some day he
might be able to dispense with sala-
ried position altogether. And this man
had a wife, too. who was farsighted
enough 10 be willing to live on a small
sum when it meant an easier road for
both by and by.
Ready cash is the greatest moving
force in the business world. 1t speaks
with the loudest voice, and its posses
sion represents business acumen. OF
course there are exceptions in cases Of
inheritance, etc, but the exception on
~ proves the rule.
Cornelius Vanderbilt worked day and
night, saving every penny, until he had
$1,000, the nest egg about which gath
cred one of the largest fortunes ever
amassed in America. The principle OF
thrift inculcated by those hard, self de-
nying years made him a great hnan-
cier.-New York Commercial.

NERVE PILLS.

The world Is full of women whose
daily life is one long struggle against
diseases peculiar to their sex-whose
days and nights are full Of quiet, patient
suffering. The head the seat of pain
and pressure-the result of nerve de
preston and physical weakness brought
on by uterine or ovarian trouDle-the
nerves on edge-inclined tolaugh or cry
at anything-an ever present dragging

Obituary.
JOHN BICKEL.

That ''in the midst of life we are IN
death" was never more forcibly i'm
pressed on the minds of the people of
Butler than il was last Thursday even
ing, June s, 1905 when the word was
passed around-''John Bickel is dead.
He was on the street and in his store
during the day, apparently IN his usual
health: and was up street that evening
but mentioned then to one or two men
he talked with that his stomach was
bothering him.
He started for his home on N Nc
Kean Street about 8 o'clock; was taken
sick on n. Main street, was helped TO
his home and expired shortly after.
His funeral, Monday, was very large
| Iy attended, and he was laid TO his eter-
nal rest in the family lot in the South
Cemetery.
.Jobn Bickel was the eldest son of
Philip Bickel, dec d., and was born IN
February of 1s43. He passed his boy
hood in Butler, and was but 10 years OF
age when the Civil War began. He
enlisted. in 1862, in Co. K of the bath
the company of which Ed. Lyon was
the first Captain, and of which Will
Campbell, Geo. Bowers and others yet
living were members wounded at
Fredericksburg in December OF 1862,
and was discharged with the regiment
in 1863.
Sometime after he engaged with his
brother-in-law in the shoe business. dis
solved partnership and engaged in the
business for himself-and by reason OF
his cleyerness, close attention to details
and inyariable good nature, has been
one of the most successful business men
Butler has ever produced.
No man engaging in business in this
town for a long term of years made
more friends, or died with fewer enc
mics, than did John Bickel.
He is survived by his wife, nee Smith;
two song, George and Philip, and one
daughter, Mrs. Z. G.. Holman; also by
one brother, Henry, and three sisters,
Mrs. Ruff, Mrs. Grail and Mrs. Miller.
The accidental death of his son,
Albert, some years ago was sad blow
to him. and he has often complained OF
his heart and stomach. Lately he has
found relief in taking long walks after
business hours, but it was that trouble
that caused his sudden death.
He is dead and buried, out OF sight
but the genial, good-natured, honest
and clever, John Bickel, will live long
in the memory OF those who knew him.
He was in his 63d year.
J. W. Waters, q stranger who worked
in the Lead Works, was stricken by
paralysis. some days ago. and was taker

was full. He died Saturday night, and
all efforts to locate bis relations have
failed He was about 80 years Of age
DR.. w. Z. James, aged 50, Of Bradyi
Bend. died, Monday morning after
| several months illness. DIR. james
practiced medicine for the last 40 years
at Bradys Bend and was also closely
identified with the development OF the
oil industry in this end Of the State.

Scholarly Version.

On the campus Of Emory college, In
Oxford, Ga, there Is table to the
memory Of Ignatius Few, the first
president. One day freshman was
crossing the campus with his cousin,
who asked him to explain the inscrlp-
ton on the stone.
"'Vivit - non mortuus - est" she
read slowly "What does that mean,
WHIP
THAT" said the freshman easily,
"oh, that means, lie lives-no, he
don't, he's dead"

Supreme Bench caused by the death OF
Justice Dean; and Judge Stewart will
accept the appointment with the under
standing that the State Committee is to
nominate him for full term of twenty
one years.
Judge Stewart has been a leading
figure in independent movements IN
this state for quarter Of century
In 1882 he was the independent candi
date of revolt against the Cameron
regime; and his candidacy was an i'm
portant factor in the election OF Patti

Whatever the motives that have CON

In making this nomination they deserve

The greatest measure of hope for the
purifcation of Philadelphia politics may
be found in the latest order Of Mayor
Weaver in which he says that all en-
ployes Of the city must report the
number Of voters registered from their
homes, supplementing it with the
Recommendation that they should not
be engaged as landlords in boarding

WAR NOTES.

All the world-the diplomatic world
Is wondering at President Roosevelts
success in bringing about the necessary
prelirainaries to peace or a truce be-
tween Russia and japan. Both
countries have agreed to appoint peace
plenipotentiaries and name time and
place for their meeting.
Russia is already beaten. badly beat
en-, in war; and the destruction Of Line
vitch's army-her last hope-will
make her borders liable to Japanese ag'
gression, both by land and sea. II she
had an honest government there would
be no trouble about concluding peace,
but the Ups viii probably be very
wary in dealing with government
founded upon and maintained by Fear,
Force and Fraud.
