HAMMER BLOWS
A FITTING END TO
HARR|MANS LIFE
So Declares the Rev. Thomas j,
Villers in Sermon on Late
Magnate's Life. :

At the PeddieeMemorial Church last
night the Rev. DR.. Thomas j. Nillers
said, among other things:
Since | read the story of Mr.. Har-
riman's last hours, the picture of that
unfinished house has been ever before
me. 1t is one of the ironies OF fate,
one of the tragedies of life. There II
stands in it's castled magnificence, the
browning glory of that vast estate oil
81, 1000 acres. For twenty years 1t mao
been his dream. There he was plan
ming to rest in his old age. But death
caught his hand midway in his gigantic
enterprises, and the palace is uniin-
ished. Amid the deepening shades oil
mortal dissolution workmen were com
pleting the last wing when the enc
came. The sound of hammers, Ii has
been said, was a fitting music to ton
out the life of one whose chief claim
to mems regard is thai he was a
builder.
Even Mrs. Hartman, If we may be-
iieye reports, does not wish to remaln
in that lonely grandeur, but prefers
tine old farmhouse, hallowed by the
memories of other and happier days
There In that more humble dwelling, al
The death of their first-born child, he
mingled his tears with hers, and there
they rejoiced together when younger
children were born. The broad halls OF
Arden castle have rung with no peais
of laughter at great social functions
Around tle massive table Of the spa
cious dining-room to friends have eaten
in merriment and intimate
In the long rows of guest-champers nc
welcomed guests have. slept ana
dreamed dreams of the railway KIN 5
prosperity. Physicians have beer there
TO help him in his last fight with the
grim monarch Of the shadows. There,
too. In that atmosphere of dealt ana
money a few rulers in the world OF
finance have been, to receive ms ma,
behest as he felt the sceptre OF goio
and power slipping from his grasp
And SO that unfinished house STANDS
atom the Ramapo mountains as the
symbol of human frailty and unfulhlied
ambition; a monument to the uncer-
taintv of life and the certainty OF
death: a mute messenger pointing To
the unsatisfying nature of Things
earthly. and by it's very silence urging
men to be rich toward God by being
rich in good works and in the Things OIL
the heart and spirit"

They Will Carry Design of LincOfn's
 Headk
 Philadelphia, Feb 2o.--The United States mint in this city will in a few days destroy the dies from which the present one-cent pieces are made and will sink the new dies with the bronze medal design of the head of Abraham Lincoln, as ordered by the Treasury Department several days ago.
 The familiar Indian head on the present penny was made many years ago from a portrait of Mary Cunning 'ham. a little Philadelphia girl. whose father was an employe of the mint.
 Officials at the mint say that the pennies are the most habitual lost coins in all Uncle sam,s fractional currency. While none of them is re- tired because of loss of weight through wear, nearly all of which come into the peoples possession are from the mintage of comparatively re- cent years.
 They simply disappear through a thousand and one different channels and never again engage in their mis- sion as a suitable exchange for com modities of small value. With the re- tirement of the present coin the In dian head penny win. in fewer years than one would ordinarily think, be the possession solely of coin eoliec. tors.

 It is well known that this is ono Of the oldest and most picturesque church building in America, buitl in 17a4: at the time. when this poem was found penciled on it's walls. with the simple signature. l" A Stranger" appended. 1t was well calculated by the beauty of its ivy wreathed desolation to excite the sentiment expressed,

 Many theories are advanced and le- Rends told in connection with the poem, it has even been surmised that In the rnelodious ewing of the verse we see the pen of Thomas Moore.

 Thou art crumbling to the dust. old
 pile. Thou art hastsning to thy fall. And round thee to thy Loneliness
 Clings the ivy to the wall. The worshippers are silent now.
 Who knelt before thy shrine And silence reigns where anthems rose In day of "Auld Lang Syne." And sadly sighs the wandering wind Where oft in years gone by Prayers rose from many hearts to Him The Highest of the High. The tramp of many a busy foot
 That swept thy aisies Is o'er And many weary heart around

removed from our midst Lydie
M McCutchen-our darling, the
pet of our home and the Joy Of
our hearts,is gone from US. Our
hearts are torn with sorrow and
anguish; may God help US to
ever bear our Ore affliction.
With us her name shall live
Through long succeeding years
E,nbalmed within our hearts,
With our praises and our tears.
Gently closed her lovely eyes
Soft and brown and pure as heaven;
For the silver cord is loosed,
And the ties of life are riven.
Push the soft brown wavy hair
Or her holy marble brow;
Kiss the pretty silent lips,
flushed is all their m usic now.
In her innocence she sleeps.
Far too pure was she for earth;
Would we call her back again,
Though she left our hearts a dearth:
Rest, dear Lydie, rest, dear Lydie,
In the bos Jm of thy God.
We shall soon 60 home to meet thee,
Now we are passing under the rod.

Are Drugs Necessary?
, Do Drugs Cure Disease?
Can Nature be Assisted?

II q person would correct his habits,
persist in right eating and temperate
ways, undoubtedly the stomach would
right itself, the blood would rid itself OF
the poison, and everything would be
right. But aS said before there are
multitude of people who will not or can
not adopt right methods of living. TO
such people Peruna is boon. A dose
before meals will assist the stomach to
do its work. This prevents ferments-
ton Of the food, brings about normal
digestion, and all the train Of ills that
follow indigestion disappear.
In other words, Peruna is helpful to
those who live badly, or those who
have acquired some chronic weakness.
Peruna does not cure, but it assists the
powers Of Nature to bring about cure.
The whip does not increase the power
of the horse to pull load, but judi
ciously used it stimulates the horse to
use his powers at the right time, with.
out which he could not have pulled the
load.
This illustrates the effect Of PerSna,
or any other good remedy upon the sys-
tenn. Taken At the right time, 1t calls
forth the powers of the human system
to meet the en-: roachments OF disease,
and thus cuts short, If not entirely ends,
the diseased action.
No one should ever attempt to substi.
tute medicine in the place Of right liv.
ing. In the end such An attempt will
prove q disaster. But an occasional use
Of the right medicine at the right time
Is godsend, and no reasonable person
will undertake 10 deny it.
Those who know how to use Peruns
find 1t Of untold value. By and by the
world will get wise enough so that
through correct living no medicine at
all will be needed. But that time has
not arrived. In the meantime, while
the world Is approaching that perfec-
ton in which all medicine will be elm.
mated, Peruna is handy remedy to
have in the house.
Slight arrangements Of tho stomach
slight catarrhal attacks Of the liver, the
throat, bronchial tubes, lungs or bow
els; these attacks are sure to lead to
grave diseases, and can be averted by
the judicious use Of Peruns.
Wouldn't you like to read q few un'
solicited testimonials from people who
have used Peruna, and who stand ready
| to confirm the above statements con.
cerning 1t. II SO, address the Peruna
Drug Manufacturing Co., Columbus,
Ohio, and we will send some prepaid.
