NOTICE. Cleveland. O , Sept. 19.—Every city and *jvery village and hamlet in Ohio will observe the day by mourning and cessation of business, and during the ten minutes that McKinley's body is being moved from the churcli there will be a period of complete quiet. All of the churches are open and the touching tribute worn by nearly everyone is a red carnation, of which Mr. McKinley wab so fond and which was seldom absent from his buttonhole. It is not the man who goes around talking to himself that succeeds in life. The most disagreeable people wo have to deal with are the people who assert that their friends "ought to know" that they are sick or neglected or In want. The way to get, says Jesus, is to gS. right up and ask for it. Treat heaven in the same manly fash- Ion. A thing that is worth havlfig Is worth seeking for. Great discoveries come .to men first as mere shadowy hints. There is a vague suspicion that such or such phenomena mean more than has been wrought out, and men spend their lives In trying to "develop" the powers so Indistinctly revealed. See the good of your soul in that way, says the Lord. When you wish a favor of a friend, you do not walk round his house and peep Into his windows. You go right to his door and knock till some one comes out. Be as earnest about your soul's needs If you would win heaven's favorablo consideration.—Selected.The Direct Way.
