years ago by Allentown business men and
did business OF $780, a year, employ
ing about go hands. In the spring of
1907, on account Of a strike In Philadel-
phia industry to which the Allentown
foundry furnished supplies. the men here
went out in sympathy. The local en-
ployes had no personal grievance, and
simply tied up the plant because walking
delegates from outside this city came
here and asked them to go on strike.
When other employees were put to work
a boycott was invoked. The plant event
ually was shut down: The petition for a
receivership states there is an indebted
ness to banks and a certain trust COM
pany of $147, 800. and upon various notes
OF $4,000. for which latter Col. Harry

vocal music was organized To be under
the direction OF Mr.. +. b. Bcttis, OF
Chicago. The term will consist OF
twelve u2) lessons, the charges will be
two dollars per pupil for the term.
The character OF the work will be the

value OF such a course to any COM
munity cannot be estimated In dollars
and we hope the people Of Ordway
and vicinity will take advantage OF II.
The churches, more than any other
public institutions, derive more bcne-
1T from such work, and we hope the
church societies will see that their
membership Is well represented in
this class. Music should be taught in
the public schools, but so long as 1t Is
not, the children should have a part
In all music work, especially where
note singing is taught, the work Of
this class will be especially useful to
them. To the singers in general the
vocal and sight reading drills will be
a general Frightening up work, and
the anthem and chorus work will be a
source of great pleasure to all.
The first meeting OF the class will
be held in the Evangelical church, on
Monday evening, September 7th

The Battle of Life.

There is more adventure in the life
OF the working man who descends as
common soldier into the battle of
life than in that of the millionaire who
sits apart in an office, like Won Moltke,
and only directs the maneuvers by tel
egraph. Give me to hear about the
career of him who is in the thick Of
business; to whom one change of mar.
ket means an empty stomach and
to another copious and savory meal.
This is not the philosophical but the
human side of economies; it interests
like story; and the life of all who
are thus situated partakes in a small
way of the charm of Robinson Crusoe;
for every step is critical, and human
life is presented to you naked and
verging to its lowest erms.-Steven-
son.

TWO GOLDEN DAYS KEPT FREE.
Yesterday and Tomorrow Should Be
Saved from All Worry.

There are two days in the week
upon which and about which l never
worry. Two golden days, kept
sacredly free from fear and apprehea.
sion.
One of these days is yesterday.
Yesterday, with all its cares and frets,
with all its pains and sorrows, has
passed forever beyond the power OF
my control, beyond the reach of my
recall. | can not undo an act that |
wrought; l can not recall a word that
| said; can not calm storm that
ragged on yesterday. All that it holds
OF my life, of regret or sorrow, or
Wrongn Is in the hands of the mighty
love that can bring oil out of the rock
and sweet waters out of the bitterest
desert-the love that can make the
wrong things right, and turn mourning
into laughter. Save for the beautiful
memories, sweet and tender, that lin.
ger like perfume of dried roses in the
heart of the day that is gone, | have
nothing to do with yesterday. 1t was
mine; now it belongs to God.
And the other day do not worry
over is tomorrow Tomorrow, with
all its possible cares, its burdens, its
sorrows, its perils, its poor perform
ings and its bitter mistakes, is as far
beyond my reach Of mastership as is
its dead sister, esterday-Banner OF
Gold.

A Fine Hobby.

With all due respect to devotees Of
other pastimes, one may venture to re-
mark that no youth could possibly
pass by a model of modern locomo,
tive without a few moments study Of
the arrangement of its component
parts. To those who are students OF
actual locomotives, and watch with in
terest their performances, the posses
sion of an accurate scale model, which
will also work in manner worthy OF
the prototype, is the sum total of their
ambition, save, perhaps, the hope Of
some day being privileged to ride on o
real locomotive and handle regu.
lator and reverse lever.-Captain.

Doctors Fees,

DO you mean to tell me-" asked a
learned counsel, when he was cross
examining Mr. Whistler in a we'll
known case, that for piece of work
which only takes you half an hour
you can charge so extravagant a
price?' And Mr.. Whistler's answer
remains the classical apology of all
learned and technical skill. "Yes," he
replied, but am charging for the
knowledge and experience of a life
time" A Doctors fee may seem enor.
nous to a patient who is aware that
he has only seen him for 20 minutes,
1t still remains true that what is
charged represents that accumulated
mass Of hardly earned experience
which distinguishes the medical prof.
cient from the mere amateur.-Lon.

slipper used to be when all of us old
fellows were being trained to obedi-

knitted, crocheted. embroidered and
stamped wear Japanese straw san

you will be a genuine invalid.
