THE TIN KANK.
peaking of banks, I'm bound to say
That a bank of tin is far the best.
And I know of one that has stood for years
In a pleasant home away out west.
It has stood for years on the mantleplece.
Between the clock and the Wedgewood
plate.
A wonderful bank, as you'll concede
When you've heard the things I'll now
' relate.
This bank was made of McKlnley tin.
Well soldered up at sides and back;
But It didn't resemble tin at all,
For they'd painted It over an iron black.
And that it really was a bank
'Twas an easy thing to see and say.
For above the door In gorgeous red
Appeared the letters, B-A-N-K!
This bank had been so well devised
And wrought so cunningly that when
Tou put your money In at the hole
It couldn't get out of that hole again!
Somewhere about that stanch, snug thing
A secret spring was hid away.
But where It was or how It worked
Excuse me, please, but I will not say.
Thither, with dimpled cheeks aglow.
ACame pretty children oftentimes,
Mnd, standing up on a stool or cha'.r,
'Put In their divers pence and dimes.
Once Uncle Hank name home from town
After a cycle of grand aveats.
And put In a round, blue, Ivory thing
, He said was good for 60 cents!
The bank went clinkety-cllnkety-cllnk.
And larger grew the precious sum
Which grandma said she hoped would
prove
A gracious boon to heathendom.
But there were those I call no names'
Who did not fancy any plan
That did not In somewise Involve
The candy and banana man.
Listen: Once when the wind went
"Yoooooooo!"
And the raven croaked In the tangled
tarn
When, with a wall, the screech-owl flew
. Out of her lair In the haunted barn
There came three burglars down the road
Three burglars skilled In arts of sin.
And they cried: "What's this? Aha! Oh!"
And straightway tackled the bank of
tin.
They burgted from half-past ten p. m.,
Till the village bell struck four o'clock:
They hunted and searched and guessed
and tried -But
the little tin bank would not un
lock! They couldn't discover the secret spring!
Bo, when the barn-yard rooster crowed,
They up with their tools and stole away
WKh the bitter remark that they'd be
blowed!
Next morning came a sweet-faced child
: And reached her dimpled hand to take
A nickel to send to the heathen poor
And a nickel to spend for her stomach's
sake.
Bha pressed the hidden, secret spring,
And lo! the bank new open then .
With a cheery creak that seemed to say;
: "i;m glad to see you; come again!"
If you were I, and If I were you, .
What would we keep our money in?
: In a downtown bank of British stoel
Or an at-home bank of McKlnley tin?
Soma want silver and some want gold,
' . But the little tin bank that wants the
two,
Aad la ran on the double-atandard plan
. Why, that la the bank for me and you.

Previous to the corner stone laying

There were jtvset: also many Polish
priests from other places.
Attired In uniform, the members of
the societies presented a line appear
ance and marched from the central city
to the North Kml. The clergy occupied
carriages at the head of Che proce.'sMon.
The Excelsior Cornet band discoursed
flr.e music leading the societies', and
among tlw various societies in line oth
er bands of mulc were Interspersed.
The emblems of each society and the
American flag were carried aloft side

OPEN-AIR MEETING.
Conducted by the Y. M. C. A. at Nay Aug
Park.
A novel means far reachlnsr the
masses was begun yesterday afternoon
by the Young 'Men's Christian associa
tion through an open air gospel meet
ing In Nay Aug park. It was the first
of a series of opoa air Sunday gather
ings, and the fact that probably 1.300
persons were attracted by stirring
music and speaking was considered to
portend success for the movement.
Gospel hymn books were distributed
among the throng, which kneluded boys
and girls, worklngmen out for a day In
the open, tired mothers with hruods of
little ones, tough young men and others
of eachi sex whose appearance evi
denced comfortable circumstances.
Many of these joined In the singing of
the association glee club, led by Tallie
Morgan. An earnest, practical talk
was delivered by George G. Many, the
general secretary of the association.
A large platform Is to be erected to
accommodate the singers and speakers
at future meetings, which seem des
tined to be a successful method of
Christian workers for reaching thou
sands who are not regular church
goers.
SUCCESS AND MISFORTUNE.
Sermons by Rev. Dr. Scott at First Pres
byterian Chnrch.
The congregations that attended tlw
services at the First Presbyterian

listened to two splendid sermons, deliv
ered by Rev. Dr. Walter Qulncy Scott',

text in the morning was a part of Ro
mans, xll, 2: "Renewing of the Mind."
He dealt with the mineral, vegetable
and animal world and traced the prog
ress of each. He raid 'that men learn
more from defeat and misfortune than
from success. Success in life makes
men narrow, selfish, bigoted, while
misfortune and sorrow broadens life
and tests the character of each one.
Such was the central theme of the ser
mon, and all agreed that It was one of
the strongest ever heard In that church.
In the evening 'Dr. Scott's subject was
the first part of the Lord's prayer, "Our
Father, which art in. heaven." The dis
course was on the greatness of the God
head.

It Is a Mistake to Snppoe They Are Syn
onymous Terms.
Writing to the Cleveland World con
cerning his impressions of a recent visit
to Ireland, Elbert Hubbard says: "There
Is a theory to the effect that the Universal
Mother In giving out happiness bestows on
each and all an equal portion that the
bggar, trudging along the stony rond. Is
as happy ss the king who rides by In his
carrlnite. This Is a very old belief, and It
has been held by many learned men.
From the time I first heard It, It appeared
to me as truth. Yet recently my fnllh
hns been shaken: for not long ago In New
York I climbed the mnrblo steps of a splen
did mansion and was admitted by a ser
vant In livery, who carried my card on a
sliver tray to his master. This master
had a son In the Keeley Institute, a daugh
ter In her grave, and a wife who shrunk
from his presence. Mis heart was as
lonely as a winter night at sea. Fate had
sent him a conch man, a butler, a gardener
and a footman, but she took his happi
ness and passed It through a hole In the
thatch Into a mud-plastered cottage In
Ireland where, each night, six rosy chil
dren soundly slept In one straw bed,
"In that cottage I stayed two days.
There was a stone floor and bare white
washed walls, but there was a rose bush
climbing over the door, and within health
and sunny temper that made mirth with
a meal of herbs, and there was tenderness
touched to poetry the prose of dally du
ties. 'But happiness Is possible even In a
palace," said Marcus Aurollua; but this
remark . was t mad seventeen hundred
years ago."

Quite aa lively a time has been going

two weeks was nut Iced when the no

The bitterness, the outgrowth of the

GRIEF AS A DISEASE.
It Onght, Says This Medical Authority, to
be Treated as Such.
A medical authority says that grief Is a
disease, and must be treated as such. It
cannot be 'ignored, neither can it bo con
soled away. It must be accepted nnd al
lowed to wear Itself out. As a rule, read
justment comes slowly. Sorrow, grief and
the emotion caused by all great misfor
tunes chould be regarded as ukln to acute
Infectious tllseoees, which they resemble
In result; and later, as convalescence from
such diseases. In this class of lUnera, se
clusion, rest, sleep, appropriate food, fresh
air, sunshine and Interests Mist tnx neither
mind nor body are required. After ex-

treme sorrow the nervous system needs,
above everything, complete rest.
The poison of grief Is more than a name.
To urge work, study, travel, the vain
search for amusements. Is both useless
and dangerous. For a time the whole or
ganism Is overthrown and temporary se
clusion is imperative for proper readjust
ment. Recent medical observations show
tlvut the physical results of depressing
emotions are similar to those caused by
bodily accidents, fatigue, chill, partial
starvation and loss of blood. Birds, moles
and dogs, which apparnntly died In con
sequence of rapture and from conditions
that correspond In human being to acute
nostalgia and "broken heart," were exam
ined after death as to the condition of their
Internal organs. It was found that th
nutrition of the tissues had been Inter
fered with, and the substance proper of
the various vital organs had undurgone
the same kind of degeneration as that
brought about by pliuHphorus or tho
germs of Infectious disease.
