Children's Aid in the War.

both sides during the civil war;" said
Mr.. ID. X. Green, who is a son of a
civil war veteran, land of their sac

Maine the pupils of the schools, after

In Frankfort, KY, is a quaint char"
acter named Ezekiel Hopkins, who
once gained local fame by discovering
a piece of broken track and tagging
an excursion train in time to save
disaster. So it was decided to pre-
sent Ezekiel with a gold watch. The
head of the presentation committee,
approaching Ezekiel with a grave
bow, said: "Mr. Hopkins, it is the
desire of the good people of Frankfort
that you shall, in recognition of your
yalor and merit, be presented with
this watch, which, they trust, will
ever remind you of their undying
friendship" Without the least emo

SONG.


You that have seen how the world and
its glory
Change and grow old like the love of a
friend;
You that have come to the end of the
story.
You that We're tired ere you came to
the end:
You that are weary OF laughter and sor-
row,
Pain and pleasure, labor and sin,
Sick of the midnight and dreading the
morrow.
All, come in; come in.
You that are bearing the load OF the
ages;
You, that have loved overmuch and too
late,
You that confute all the saws OF the
sages;
You that served only because you must
wait,
Knowing your work was a wasted en-
deaVor;
You that have lost and yet triumphed
therein,
Add loss to your losses and triumph for
ever;
All, come in;@ come In.

the reason people look happy once more

their arteries is full of that life-giving

Nervousness and neuralgia are only the

restorer. 1t tones up the organism and
stimulates its functions, furnishing to the
body one of its necessary constituent

This preparation is of pleasant taste,
agrees perfectly with rebellious and SEN

entire system. 1t cures gastric troubles

There comes to mind names of three
or four persons that have a regularly
systematized means of getting rid of
their money, Carnegie, of course;
Helen Gould, Rockefeller. Then there
are those that give personally: prom

that know the very considerable Of
philanthropic labors and philanthro-

wisely and judiciously as any of the
distributors. He does not resort to any
cumbrous machinery, is easily ap-
preached, shows much discrimination
in his estimate of needs, at the same
time bestowing generously and with
catholicity of spirit.
The almoners of Carnegie and Rookie
feller carefully guard these gentlemen
from personal intrusion, the calls upon
them being Of such number and often
made by such unworthy persons that
otherwise little would be accomplished
Mr.. Carnegie's right-hand man is his
secretary. James Bertram. Very little
mail addressed to Mr.. Carnegie reaches
the master of the house before it has
been perused by the secretary; very
few people obtain personal interview
until judgment has been passed upon
them by the secretary. This system,
while it may have its drawbacks, GER
tainly is necessary for a man whose
giving habit is so widely known as
that of the enormously rich Scotch
American. AS many are aware, Mr
Carnegie some time ago established

corporation organized under the laws
