A loyerty StrWeil Youth Turnt Hymn Writer ' '
In "1848 a ragged little teyaiH)ld bor walked
from bis log cabin bom In ths woods of Clear
field County, Pennsylvania, to the neighboring
town of Rome, He had brought ft basket ol
berries to sell so that h might add a far pen-
nles to 'those he was saving to boy cheap
, violin.' -',
Walking the streets in teareS ot ft market
for his berries, the lad heard strangely; beantb
ful music.. He hurried toward the house front
which the enchanting sound came. It most be
a piano, he thought, because his mother had, '
told him about Iho sound. The only instrument
he had actually heard wm a flute he had vfefr
tied from a .cane. si'V.
Putting his basket on the steps, the boy ran
tured to the open door. When the lady saw
him she abruptly stopped playing. Philip Bliss
related in- later life that he begged the lady;
to "please play some more." Instead of being
accommodated, he was-, ordered away; and
scolded, for making tracks on the porch SrttU
bis dusty feet. ; . ,. ,., - - .
Before be died In a railroad wreck Is bis
thirty-eighth year, Philip Bliss was to writ
many a song that ladies would be playing on
pianos for generations. Ho usually wrote his
. own words to his melodies, most ot hit tjjejn.es,
being taken from sermons. :
As editor of his highly popular 'Gospel
Songs' ... for which his royalties ran more ',
than $M,000, the boy who had once been de
nied the luxury of hearing a piano, wrote;
