RIP VAN WRINKLE
STORY is BEAT
LOCAL YARN PROVES TO BE TRUE
BUT READS LIKE A ROMANCE
OF SLEEPY HOLLOW.
THE RESULT OF DRINKING FROM
BOTTLE rs TOLD IN RE-
MARkABlE STYLE

Old Rip Won Wrinkle drank a few
drops out OF a flask. so IL Is said. and
when he woke up things had changed
somewhat during the years. and there
were some changes in his personal ap-
pearance. and his bones ached him a
little. Yes. that was n pretty good
yarn. but has nothing on a romance Of
a bottle which actually occurred here
IN Wheeling not so long ago.
here Is the story: Charles Debalt.
n packer with Swift & COMPANY. felt
the queer pains OF stomach trouble. in
digestion and a general run down con.
dltion creeping over him. and had lost
some weight. and his appetite for the
good things his wife cooked was gone
Ills wife. too. felt somewhat badly
and she hustled out one day in search
OF bottle Of Tanlac. Procured she
began taking II. But half a bottle was
suihcient TO restore her. and so on the
advice OF his wife Mr. DeBalt took
the remainder. Now. 10 use his own
words, let him explain the remarka bic
change that took place He said. Il
ENJOY splendid appetite and have
gained III pounds. / feel more like my
old self and have no more pains in
my stomach and have no Indigestion

ana appreciate the true worth Of this
new medicine. The BOYS at the mack.
ing house have noticed the big change
IN me, and have advised several TO
take Tanlac.' In describing his pre-
vlous condition. he said: Z suffered
irom stomach trouble. Indigestion and
lost appetite. ! had lost weight. too
and had that tired. sleepy feeling
rains and cramps in stomach. and az
Ter eating would suffer from dyspepsia
spitting up the food: always felt sleepy

woMAN,s BITTER TRAGEDY

Men do not, as a rule suffer very much
from the desire TO possess, because they are
so sure that they do possess because they
find II SO difficult to conceive that their wife
can find any other man attractive. They
are too we'll accustomed TO being courted.
even IL they are old and repulsive. because
they have power and money; only they
think It is because they are men. Beyond
a jealous care for their wives fidelity, which
/ suspect arises mainly from the feeling
that an unfaithful wife is criticism, they
do not ask very much. But women suffer
more deeply because they know that man
has layished on them for centuries a con-
descending admiration, that the king who
lays his crown at their feet knows that his
is the crown to give. While men possess
by right of possession women possess only
by right of precarious conquest They feel
1t very bitterly, this fugitive empire, and
their greatest tragedy Is to find themselves
growing little older, uncertain OF their
power, for they know they have only one
power; they are afraid as age comes OF
losing their man, while have never heard
OF a husband afraid of losing his wife, or
able to repress his surprise IL she forsook
him>-w. l. George in the Atlantic
Monthly.

vagrancy. The agencies which are en-

PAYING THE PRICE

We are always paying the price for the
things we lose or gain
Out of this life of mingled gladness and of
pain:
And whether we pay for pleasure or
whether we pay for sin,
1t is always paying the price for life, no
matter where we begin.
We say we have had lot we've enjoyed
and we've shared in the best
We sit sometimes with n little dream of
old content in the breast;
And then we look away and think of the
things that were nice,
1t all comes over us, lucky or sad, that
we've had to pay the price.
The magnate pays for his, as the pauper
pays 1t, too;
And the saint pays as the sinner does and
the unsaved have to do;
In all that we have and hold. or in all that
we've thrown away.
1t is sure in the end to come to this that
there was price to pay.
We pay 1t for love and peace. for cheer
and comfort and song;
We pay. for sinnnlng and going astray, we
pay 1t for doing wrong:
In all that we are or seem, in Kladness or
grief pain,
We are always paying the price for the
things that we lose or gain.

JOHN SCOTT, BENEFACToR
How the Gifts Of Scotch Engineer to
This City Have Accumulated

BECAUSE this is the year 1916 there is
ID $4,000 to be added to tho building
fund of tho Franklin Institute.
one hundred years ago. I'm 1916, John
Scott chemist, of st. Patrick's Square,
Edinburgh, Scotland, left to the city of
Philadelphia the sum of $4,000 which was
to be held in trust for one hundred years,
during which time It was to be invested and
reinvested At the end of that time the
earned accumulations were to be applied
in the same manner as fund created In
1890 by benjamin Franklin, while tho
original amount was again to be Invested
and reinvested in trust for another one
hundred years.
Little seems to be known about John
Scott There Is no reference to him In any
of the records Of the Pennsylvania Histor-
ical Society, Notwithstanding the fact that
he was the donor Of another, and little
larger fund to this city, which was to fol-
low the same plan of investment and re-
investment with distribution of the accu-
mutations at the end of 100 years.
Both of these funds are under the guar
danship and administration of the Board
OF Directors of City Trusts. The former is
known as tho John Scott Loan Fund,
and the latter is the John Scott Medal
Fund"
This latter fund, which with Its accumu-
latlons amounted to S92,500 on December
81 last, according to tho original deed OF
trust is to "be laid out in premiums to be
women, who make useful inventions, and
along with which shall be given n copper
medal" The Board OF City Trusts have
passed the administration of this fund over
to the Trustees of the Franklin Institute. as
they are In a better position to know men
and women who should receive such
awards. Last year six awards were made,
the inventors each receiving from the In
stitute n copper medal. certificate and
twenty dollars In gold.
A clause in the Franklin deed of trust,
which governs the management of the John
Scott Loan Fund. permits a very wide lati-
tude to the Board of City Trusts in the dis
position of the accumulRtions, and they
have turned over the $40, ,000-the accumu-
lations of this fund-to the building fund
of the Franklin Institute. This fund on
December 81 last amounted TO S2S0,OO0.
With this money the trustees of the
Franklin institute expect 10 erect hand
monument to perpetuate tho name OF Ben
Jamin Franklin.
