Andrew Carnegie has been remark
ably successful as a business man,
starting life in poverty he has worked
his way up to the ranks of the mui
millionaires and now retires from
active business enterprises to enjoy
his fortune and continue his philan
thropies, which for years he has been
distributing with a lavish hand. Mr.
Carnegie in an interview says that "he
did not sell out his business, either
because he was frightened by the
trusts, or because business was not
prosperous. In lact it never was so
prosperous, nor were its prospects
ever so good. Long ago he formu
lated a policy not to spend his "old
age in business, struggling after more
dollars, but beleived in developing a
dignified and unselfish life after 60
years of age. He will continue his
work of philanthropy during the re
mainder of his life-time, and will
doubtless prove in himself an excep
tion to a declaration he is credited
with having made, that "to die rich is
to die disgraced." The world would
be better if it had more rich men like
Andrew Carnegie.
Murderess Wants to Sleep-
The condition of Mrs. Grace Ram
sey, who before her marriage was Miss
Grace Simpson, of Williamsport, Pa.,
and who is charged with cutting the
throat of her husband, at New York,
is serious.
The Tomns matrons say the most
noticeable change is a desire upon
the unfortunate woman's part to sleep
all the time- She is very docile and
makes those in charge little or no
trouble. She eats but little and takes
uncomplainingly what is placed be
fore her. No sooner, however, is
breakfast over than she goes to her
cell and at once falls asleep and re
mains so until called for dinner. The
greater portion of the afternoon is
spent in the same way. Her mind is
rapidly failing.
Gets too Much Money.
Hullinger, Although Helpless from Rheuma
tism, Wants Hit Pension Cut Down
From $72 to $50.
John J. Hullinger, a veteran of the
Sixteenth regiment, Ohio volunteer in
fantry of Wooster, Ohio , asked to
have his pension cut down. For years
he has been a helpless invalid, as the
result of rheumatism contracted in the
War of the Rebellion. He has been
receiving $72 per month, and has
been cared for by a son and daughter.
Hullinger in a letter to the pension
department asked that his allowance
be cut down to $50 per month, as $7 2
was more than he needed. A special
agent sent to investigate says no
change will be made.
Hullinger is an ardent church mem
ber, and it is supposed he has scrup
les against taking more than he needs.
His son left home a year ago and he
lives with his daughter, who is married.
His poor limbs are twisted so that he
cannot walk, but he is very contented.
He has no use for so much money; he
don't know what to do with it all.
The patriotic old veteran thought that
his country needed the funds worse
than he did; so he ask to have his
pension reduced.

Director General ol the Great National Ex
port Exposition.
Dr. W. P
Wilson received his early
training through his own efforts and
in the common and higher schools of
Michigan. His taste for botany and
natuial history was considerably fost
ered by a course of study in the Agri
cultural College of Michigan. At a
later date he received a degree from
Harvard University, where he was in
structor in botany for several years.
He was born in Oxford, Oakland
county, in the northern part of Michi
gan, which was then practically a wil
derness of forest. The nearest neigh
bors were tribes of Indians. His early
life was spent in farming. At a later
date he entered a large plant in the
West for manufacturing agricultural
implements and machinery.
In 1 8Q3 he conceived the idea of
founding a Commercial Museum with
the raw product exhibited by different
nations at the World's Fair, at Chic
ago. He secured the authority of the
city of Philadelphia, and succeeded in
having donated to the proposed mus
eum the large collections exhibited by
early every country, especially the
Spanish-American countries. Dr.
Wilson is a careful worker, and it is
through his care and forethought large
ly that the successful plan of organiza
tion of the Philadelphia Commercial
Museum has been carried out.
The National Export Exposition is

Institute and Franklin Museum.
A Healthful Drink for Hot Weather.
This is the twenty-first season for
that famous and healthful drink, Hires
Rootbeer. The campaign has opened.
The war against thirst is on, and of
course Hires will reign supreme in an
undisputed realm ot its own. In all
of these years it has stood proof
against imitation and counterfeit, and
now in its strength of full growth rises
far above any serious competition.
bummer and Hires Kootbeer are
associated in our mind as things in
separable. We look forward to that
as a summer beverage as we look for
the rising of the sun. It has been of
inestimable value to thousands of
people, supplying them at once with
a delicious,healthful and thirst-quenching
drink, occupying the same place
at the family table as tea or coffee.
Its growth has been rapid and re
markable, long since reaching pro
portions never dreamed of by its pro
prietors. One of its remarkable feat
ures is its trifling cost, one package
may be converted into 5 gallons of
this delicious, sparkling, temperance
drink, containing medicinal properties
of well-known virtue.

Memoir of Levi Kinley.
Communicated.
Death, whose quiver is never emp
tied, nor his bow unstrung, has strick
en another shining mark. That ven
erable form and saintly presence,
whose greetings we have hitherto so
fondly cherished, has disappeared.
He is not here ; he has gone from us,
and henceforth we must look for him
on the other shore,
Where the saints of all ages in harmony
meet,
Transported their Saviour and brethren to
greet."
Levi Kinley, of Espy, this county,
departed from earth for the better
world at 3 o'clock a. m., on Friday,
tine 1 6th. His pilgrimage here was
about seventy-two years, of which
forty-six was spent in the service of
his Divine Master. He was also a
soldier in the war for the preservation
of the Union, and was always ready
and willing in its detence.
He was a man of a very generous
heart, that ever throbbed in sympathy
with the woes of all with whom he
came in contact he was indeed the
exemplification of all that is Christ
like in human character. Modest,
gentle, sweet spirited, charitable.
None could know him and not love
him. The character and life of this
good man can be but imperfectly pic
tured in this short sketch. His life
was a sermon. He " was a good man
and full of the Holy Ghost." His
meek spirit, his honest and sincere
nature, his abiding faith in God, his
uniform spirituality, were those of a
holy man. His bible was his delight.
A man of prayer and of constant
communion with God, it is no wonder
that all who came in contact with him
m?rked the transparent purity and the
sweet temper of his life ; and we are
not astonished that be passed peace
fully into the embrace of death. The
eternal arms were around and about
him.
His life was a checkered one; af
flictions sore came in his latter years.
He was a long and intense sutler, but
he was very patient, his usual remark
being, " It is all right, God knows
best." He gloriously anticipated the
fulfillment of the promise of Jesus,
" Where I am there shall ye be also."
A very devoted wife and other rela
tives mourn the loss of this good man,
which is his infinite gain.
Fully aware of his approaching
death, he made arrangements for the
funeral service, even selecting the
hvmns and text. On Sabbath, Tune
1 8th. before a lary:e concourse of
friends the funeral services were held
in the Kspy M. K. Church, the sermon
being preached by the Rev. Wm. R.
Owen, of Shamokiii, l'a., from the se
lected text : Revelations, xxi : 25,
"There is No Night There." Toe
sermon was very appropriate and full
of encouragement for the bereaved
ones.
A life so beautiful, so uniform and
consistent, so adorned with heavenly
graces, could not but end in glorious
triumph. Gloriously he lived, tri
umphantly he died, and while we now
take leave of our dear brother, we
trust we shall see him again, and by
God s help we will greet him, and re
new our friendship in that land where
" there is no night," where death is
unknown, and farewells are never said,
where we shall see the King in his

case the cyclist obtained $500 dam

McOlure's Magazine for July
McClure's Magazine for July opens with,
a very complete and instructive account of
the automobile as it is seen to-day, no longer
a matier of mere promise or experiment, but
one of practical, constant use j the article
explains what it costs, how it is operated,
and just what it will do, setting forlh ihe re
spective advantages and disadvantages of the
various kinds. And it is illustrated with pic
tures of all the more important types. The
recent developments will be a surprise to
most readers, although they have been ef
fected almost under their very eyes.
Another article that gives iuforir.atien of
very extraordinary interest is I'rolessor Simoa
Newcomb's account of the tremendous prob
lems that just now press upon astronomers
for solution. This article is illustrated from
some of the most remarkable of the recent
telescopic photographs, especially of the
Milky Way, showing clearly stars that the
human eye, even with the aid of the strong
est telescope, has never seen.
A biographical sketch of Rudyard Kipling
by his friend, l'rofessor Charles Eliot Norton,
the only authorized account of Kipling's life
ever given to the public, is another interest
ing contribution. And yet another is Mr.
V. A. Fraser's account of the "Soldier Po
lice of the Canadian Northwest," illustrat
ing very finely their exceptional skill, faith,
fulness, hardihood, ond bravery. Miss Tar
bell's account of "Lincoln's Great Victory
in 1864" supplies new illustration of the im
mense hold that Lincoln secured, by his wis
dom, shrewdness, kindness, and honesty, 011
the faith and affection of the people; and
shows how, when it came to the question of
Lincoln's re-election, the mere politicians
and agitators could make no head against
this.
