Each day they life a strenuous life a l-te thr.t takes the seam gauge to tho high pressure point. For years tuey continue this without noticing It, but when the first break comes they seldom rally, and the human machine rapidly crumbles. Every cog In the machine has undergone terrific strain for years; every muscle bas and every nerve has been stretched to high tension. It was so with Mr. Morgan. His probably was the""" greatest business career ever recorded. Jay Gould was prominent in business circles In bis day,' so was Mr. Harrlman, but none of the financiers ever reached the prominence of Mr. Morgan. None ever did the big things day after day that be did. His life was different In many ways from tho general opinion held regard ing him We have a personal letter from Dr. N. Molitor, formerly of La Grande, but now of New York, ' who .bas since going to New York studied Wr. Morgan's career a great deal. Dr. llolltor attended the same church that Mr. Morgan attended, contribut ed in the Sunday evening offering cutting hlB coin in the plate as it was passed by Mr. Morgan, and ao ! cording to the doctor's version of this moneyed man, there was much good in his make-up. Viewed from angle Mr. Morgan's career was an exponent of what the present day businesssys tern brings about where the individ ual appear who bas the different ele ments t,o make success, Instead of fcriticlsiiiy Mr. Morgan, Dr. Molitor six months ago wrote this paper that he pitied him because of the load he was then carrying which was sure to in the course of a short time to break down the physical machine. That Dr. Molitor's conclusions were correct was proved Monday when the news of Mr. Morgan's death was flashed to every newspaper in the , country. It Is the same old story over again. You must pay the price. The over present balance sheet must be made out. The man who gives too much energy to business In tlmo settles with nature. Just as the man who follows the primrose path set tles with nature. But, for all this, Mr. Morgan's career stands forth as one in the na tion. No man has ever been able to cope with him In business matters no man hns ever been able to go around htm In merging big business. His memory will stand as the great est monument to the present dny business methods. The Test Thne determines whether Us tefhrles ssder which a bank Is oer ated are safe.

A great crowd appeared, the company was on hand, but the bacgage didn't appear. appear, so the company couldn't It looked like wreck. But a woman saved the day. She came out on the stage that hot afternoon, before a disappointed au dience, all alone, without scenery or paraphernalia. She captured a crowd that was starting to go. She held them more and more firmly until she simply gripped them to the last minute. She gave them the delightful Scotch comt edy, "Bunty Pulla the Strings." How they cheered Katharine Oliver McCoy that afternoon! She made a thousand new friends; she made the entire I. L. A. her advertising bureau. "Bunty" became the word for femi nine genius. The "Buntles" forthwith captured the Stunt club. It was a tribute to the genius of (Mrs. McCoy, who so simply, sensibly and superbly acted the play. All these years Katharine Oliver has been , known as the queen of Scotch readers, but not till September 3, 1912, at Winona Lake did all the I. L. A. fully appreciate her genius. She was ready, and ripe with ex perience. Hers is the real art that conceals itself. The audience lost sight, of Mrs. McCoy. She seemed to make so little effort. But she enisled her characters so vividly, beautifully and humanly that the audience will never forget them. Nor the lesson they wrought.

Coughs and Consumption, Coughs and colds, when neglected, always lead to serious trouble of the lungs. The wisest thing to do when you have a cold that troubles you Is to get a bottle of Dr. King's New Dis covery. You will get relief from the first dose, and finally the cough will disappear. O. H. Brown, of Musca dine, Ala., writes: "My wife was down In bed with an obstinate coush, and I honestly believe had It not bsen for Dr. King's New Discovery, she would not be living today."
