It ia all very well as you climb toward the
tor,
To look back through your toll as you
But you should not forget, 'midst your
worry and fret, .
That your fellows are living below.
And now just because you may happen
to dwell
For awhile In the uppermost row,
Tou need not opln«, nor your fancy In-
cline
To the thought that 'twill always be so.
In the workshop of life where we meas-
ure our worth.
And where no one is judged all alone.
There's an axiom true, though regretful
to jou.
There's no building without a bass
stone.
Tou may see th#> tall spire with its sky-
reaching crest.
•Tis the steeple that first takes the eye:
But ax that stands for show there is on«
thine, you know.
The base stone keeps tha steeple on
high.
And If you should not IVnd yo r place at
Where the' eyes of all people may see.
Tou may still persevere *wd be of good
cheer. . .
Fo" your value e'en greater may be.

A RUDE AWAKENING
BY FRANX DAVIS.
(Copyright. 1?**. by Daily Story Pub. Co.)
' "! heard something In town yester-
day that made me a bit uneasy,' he
eaid; "I was told that thai dude from
St. LouiB has been shining around
tiere. Begins to look as though there
was a rival in the field,'' and Jack
Gladden assumed a melodramatic air.
"No, air," she said, sharply, "there's
bo 'rival* in the field—only your lack
©f manners; a gentleman wouldn't
talk the way you do."
He had always liked to see her Hare
up like this—It was a refreshing
break iD the monotony of smooth love
making; but, somehow, she seemed
more in earnest now than usual, and
It irritated him.
"No, Grace,'' he said, "I presume a
•gentleman' wouldn't talk thai- way,
but a man would, when he wants the
f^rl he loves to turn from the error
of her ways."
They were sitting in the Phade of
• big elm. back of the house. The
day was warm, and the girl fanned
herself vigorously with the magazine
ahe had been pretending to read. Her
face was flushed with something be-
eides the heat, as she replied to his
aarcasm.
"Jack, you are always talking about
the girl yon .ove, when, if you-only
knew it, you don't love anyone but
yourself. You really make me weary
with your everlasting nonsense, end
the fan moved with accelerated vigor.
"We have known each other all our
lives, dear," said Jack, in sudden
humility, "and I have loved you ever
ilnee I ean remember; do you really
think I am that sort of a fellow9
"What sort of a fellow?" asKed the
girl, not looking at him, and she very
carefully examined the advertising
pages of her magazine.
"Didn't you just say that I am self-
ish—don't love anyone but myself?"
"Well, you don't," she retorted< "if
you did, you would talk less and do
something. You are 23 years old, and
you don't seem to have any ambition
to do anything except work your
mother's 40-acre farm. You have
good education, why don't you use
it?"
He generally enjoyed these scolding
motherly lectures; now. they stirred
him to bitterness, and he said, with
boyiBh petulance: "I suppose you are
mentally comparing me with Mr.
Henry Souders, the gentleman from
6t. Louis."
"You talk like a boy, Jack; and 1
am afraid you will always he one."
Che was 19.
Jack aubeWed into sulky, troubled
•llenee. Above thmm, in the topmost,
branches, a thrusfc bepift to sing. In
■pure, sweet notes, # fcve-song to its
mate.
A step was heard oil the walk, fol-
lowed a moment later by Mr. Henry
Souders, "the gentleman from 8t.
Ixmis." "Good afternoon," said he,
hat in hand. "I hope I don't intrude
They told me at the house that • I
should find you here, but they did not
inform me that you had company,"
find he glanced in a deprecatory wav
at Jack, but that young man did not
appear to notice him.
Miss Grace Hadley rose to her feet.
••Why, how do you do, Mr. Souders?
Certainly you don't Intrude. My
friend, Mr. Gladden, Mr. Souders."
Jack acknowledged the introduction
Doth awkwardly and rudely. "Glad to
make your acquaintance," he said,
without rising. Grace shot him a
.ook of mingled anger and disgust.
What a boor Jack is. She wondered
now she had ever fancied herself in
love with him.
Mr. Souders, with perfect self-pos-
session, sa down on a corner of the
rustic seat, and began making him-
self agreeable. "For shade." £e said,
"there's nothing comparable with the
American white elm," and be glanced
up at the heavy masses of dark green
foiiage overhead.
"No, I'm sure 'here isn't," ac-
quiesced Grace. "Papa says that he
wouldn't take $500 fer this tree.''
jealous j t. now. Mr. Bonders, how-
ever, was simply trying to be agree-
able to an inferior.
The conversation after this waa
chiefly between Mr. Souders and
Grace, Jack vouchsafing an occasion-
al remark. Finally, Mr. Souders
arose to take his leave. **1 had
hoped," he s«.ld, "to take you riding
this afternoon, Mies Hadley, and
drove around this way for that pur-
pose; but. under the circumstances, i
presume that it would be out of plaee
to ask you to go?"
Grace heeitated a moment. "No,
thank you ever so much," she said;
"1 couldn't very well go this after-
noon."
"Some other time, then?" insin-
uated the suave Mr. Souders.
•Perhaps," smilingly assented the
K*rl- „
"With a "Good afternoon,' Mr.
Souders departed. As the gentleman
from St. Lo(uis disappeared around the
corner of the house. Jack said, ma-
liciously: "Didn't tarry long, did
he?"
With a burst of passion the girl
turned on him: "Aren't yo* ashamed
of yourself, to act that way in the
presence of a gentleman? You—oh,
I'm disgusted with you!" and, catch-
ing up her magazine, she started for
the house. Jack met the shock lm-
perturbably. "Good-by, Graoe," he
called after her.
II.
A pink parasol, a pink-and-wbite
girl, and a well-groomed young gen-
tleman were moving slowly along the
greasy side of the narrow road. The
man was talking earnestly, with bent
head beneath the pink parasol, the
girl, with flushed cneeks and down*
cast eyes, listening.
"I know that we have known e&cli
other but a few months," he said,
"but, for me, those months have held
more of life than all the past years
of my existence. I have met many
women, but none has ever touched my
heart but you. Let me look into your
sweet eyes, dear—" Bang! bang!
came the almost simultaneous reports
of a shotgun, down the road toward
town; then shouts, and the barking of
dogs
"Oh! what is it?" exclaimed the
startled girl. The love light had left
Mr. Souders' eyes, and they had an
anxious look. "I don't know," he an-
swered; "somebody hunting, mavbe."
Presently, they saw a crowd of men,
armed with guns, pitchforks and
clubs, running up the road; and, in
advance of the crowd, 200 yards or
more, running with head down, and
frothing mouth, came a gaunt, hound-
like creature, which, at every bound,
gave vent to short, snarling cries.
The main idea in a "touring dinner*
party is to "keep movin%" All the
places which usually attract folk during
the heated months must be visited. To
carry out the party in detail—and un-
less this is done the afTair is without its
point—will require a hostess of much
patience and one who is not afraid of
the work and fuss which comes before
and follows such an event.
July is*partlcularly apropos for such
an entertainment, because the seashore.
the mountains and the country are beck-
oning the travelers to hasten from their
homes at this period.
The "tour" opens with "the farm"
the presumption being that most Ameri-
cans made their start from a farm home.
This will be the fruit course, and the
dining-room where the dinner starts
should be arranged to represent an old
time-orchard. Tree branches may be
brought in from the country and caught
to the sides of the wall, limbs covering
the ceiling to represent the "spreading
branches ' known to memory and to po-
etry. Artificial fruits, now so easily ob-
tainable in every confectioner's store,
should be hung from the branches.
The table should be covered with a
green cloth or stage grass, and through
the center should be arranged a minia-
ture orchard, with small fruits on the
trees and more on the ground. If the
hostess desires to be very realistic, a
barefoot boy doll and girls with sun-
bonnets may be placed in the orchard.
When the first course has been fin-
ished. 1 he party progresses to another
room, wh^re the soup is to be served.
As the next step in travel is the railroad,
the room presents the interior of a din-
ing car. If t he room is long and narrow.
eo much the better. The porch may be
used. Small tables are arranged along
either side of the room, and the whole
sitting is made as nearly like a railroad
train as possible. A centerprlece will
not be necessary for this course, for
the railroad train seldom indulges in
centerpieces. For the place cards have
tiny railroad lanterns which, in real-
ity. are candy boxes. If a variety of
cards is desired, the lanterns, engines,
cars and all the railroad novelties ob-
tainable may be used, but the lanterns
with the many-colored glass will add
a dash of color and atmosphere not
obtainable in any other way.
The soup is served and a bell rings
This means that the guests are to pass
into another room.
Here they find themselves in the mid
die of the sea. The walls and floor are
covered with sea-green material which
will carry out the illusion. Everything
about is perfectly bare, except the table,
which is built to represent an immense
yacht. If this is not possible, the table
may be the shape of a yacht and a toy
yacht may be placed in the center
of the table. The place cards for this
may be small anchors obtainable at the
stores for one cent apiece, and they may
be brought from the yacht to the places
by means of small rope.
There is still another idea which may
be uglized for this course. Likewise, it
will bring nearer the pleasures of the
to reflect, that the Keystone state has ar{> R-ttar<l!an of Rex Stewart. Crete J

the light, the expression seems rather
paradoxical) was a little log cabin. IB
late years this cabin has been removed
to Mercersburg, where It still stands,
in Fayette street, and is now occupied
by a colored family.
Think of the policies for which Bu-
chanan stood touching the negro race,
add the fact that negroes now live in
the edifice of that presidents nativity,
and surely yon have the irony of fate
in one of its most startling twentieth
century exemplifications!
A few ol the foundation stones are
left to mark the place where the Bu-
chanan cabin stood in the mountains,
but most of them have been used for
the foundation of a schooihouse near
hy. At the time of his birth the turn-
pike had not been marie, hut there
are still traces of a packer s path
which ran on one side of the bouse,
and of a wagon road on the other side.
Stony Batter, as his birthplace
called, was one of the few places In
those days where farmers from the
western counties came with pack
horses laden with the products of
their lands which they exchanged tor
the necessaries of life brought there
from the city of Baltimore. Near
where the cshln stood flows a little
stream called Trout Run, and all
around the mountain peaks tower
aloft in surpassing grandeur and aub-
limity.
These mountains were and are even
at the present time infested with
bears, panthers and wildcats.
In the ;«r 17*6 Mr. Buchanan re-
moved with his family to the village
of Mercersburg. where he sought a
wider field for his business career-
that of a country merchant. At this
time young .Tames was about flva
years of age, and here he attended
school and was Instructed In Latin
and Greek iintil the year 1S07. when
he was sent to Dickinson college, Car-
lisle, from which institution he was
graduated with honor In 180*.
An amusing incident is told regard-
ing his trip to Carlisle, which he made

Prof. A. J. Field, the acknowledged adept and
recognized authority of Hindoo philosophy and oc-
cult mysteries, makes a remarkable statement:
"Your greatest wish can be realized—you would
not desleo a thing if you were not capable of at-
taining it."
I know how to control and use that power for your
success and mine If you wtah to succeed in any
business undertaking, consult me. I can put voU
on the right road If you deslr® to win In love,
or be reunited with one from whom some trouble
or estrangement separates you. I can and wilt
help you to pain the desire or your heart. Are you
tired of being poor and living a from hand-to-
mouth" existence? if so. come to me and I will
show w>u a better way. Life is not half so mucn
of a mystery as some people would hsve you ha
lieve. If you had shidler! more into Nature's la^g
and learned the lessons there revealed you would
know why some people succeed and others fall.
There is a good reason, just the same as there is a
reaaon whv water will run down hill more easily
than it will run up hill. I can explajn that reason
fo you. T ami successful myself. I do not make
this claim in ^the spirit of a braggart or egotist,
but to enable you to appreciate what I can do for
you.
There so-called clairvoyants who maVe
great, claims or what they can do for you when
upon investigation their surroundings; and every
action would convince any sensible person that,
they are Incapable of helping themselves There
are also counterfeit dollars, imitations of the genuine. There are
good, doctors and bad ones and a few honest lawyers. .Tust *o with
clairvoyants; there are a few genuine and a great muny tmitj^ions.
"JudKe'm* by my work." My extensive patronage and treat success
are the envy or all competitors. I am never Idle. My motto is: "Work
and Win." I help my patrons to succeed in attaining their various
ambitions, that is why 1 have so many, of them and why each one
recommends me to their friends.
Tb« All-wise Creator did not. endow you with high Ideas nobl« in-
spirations, desire for happiness and return for that great love craving
within your heart without at the same time placing within your reach
the means of attaining these desires. If you are In trouble of anv
kind or not satisfied with your condition In life, come to me and I
will make this clear to you. I have helped others. I can help vou.
Positively no charge If I fall to tell your name In full, your occupation,
