Give Him Bread to Eat.

While we are holding out the most lib
eral inducements to our citizens TO voun-
teer and encourage them, by every means
in our power, to rush to the rescue of the
government, we should by no means for
get those who have volunteered in their
country's service, and are now suffering
all the privatious of camp and field.
1t is eminently proper, on the day of
our National Thanksgiving, when we are
grateful for the mercies that has crowned
the year, the abundandance that fills our
store-houses, that our soldiers should be
remembered. We are gratfied that a
recommendation has gone forth that a
collection be taken up on that day in ev-
cry church for the benefit Of the suffering
soldiers. Let it be done in this place
in all our churches, and let the offering be
a liberal one. Let every one go prepar-
ed to do something generous and noble.
TO enjoy blessing we must be willing to
confer one.

National Thanksgiving.

BY proclamation Of the President and
Governor tomorrow (Thursday,) is des-
ignated as the day of our annual Thanks
giving. 1t is to be national affair, the
Governors ofloyal States generally having
seconded the proclamation o! the Presi-
dent relative to the day when we are, in
an especial manner, to pay our tribute OF
thanks to the Great Giver of all good for
his mercies and blessings.
Though clouds and darkness still sur
round our pathway, and, nationally, we
are suffering all the horrors and distress
of the most formidable civil war that ever
afflicted and dishonored nation since his
tory had beginning, yet we have a thou
sand causes of thanksgiving, as individu-
ais. Amid all our sorrow, darkness and
doubt, let US not forget the glories Of the
sunshine of former days and be thankful
that there is an All-Wise Sovereign Of
the Universe who rules and directs ma
tons as well as shapes the destiny of the
most undeserving of his creatures, and
who does all things well. Let, therefore,
the proper thank offering not be withheld.

Enrolment Lists.

BY late order of the Provost Marshal
General printed lists Of persons enrolled
for military service are to be posted in
five conspicuous places, in each town, 10y
the Deputy Provost Marshal of each sub
district, subject to any alteration that may
serve to perfect such enrolment and that
may be suggested by persons knowing err
70 rs to exist, adding or taking therefrom
the names of any persons known to be
wrongfully enrolled. And, further, any
persons lawfully exempted are privileged
TO appear before the Board of Enrolment
and obtain the necessary certificate of ex-
emption, from physical disability or other
causes, before the draft shall take place.
This course will serve to remove many
causes Of complaint.

OBITUARY.

DIED, on Tuesday morning Nov 3, 1868, at
the residence of Mr. J. o. Hedges, of Lamont,
Ottawa County. Michigan, Of cong cstion of the
lungs, Mrs. AGNES b. ALLEN, in the 10th
year Of her age.
The death of this highly esteemed and below
ed lady has caused wide breach in the large
circle of her friends and acquaintance. With a
mind well stored with useful knowledge and
particularly with the incidents of n long and
an eventful life, and being endowed with tho
natural gift of easy, fluent and graceful CONVEX
satonal powers and faculties, together with a
refined and elevated taste, she could, in a most
wonderful manner, please and entertain her as
sociates. Though unprctending, she possessed
to a remarkable degree decision of character and
frmness of mind. Indeed, when her mind was
once made up, she was not easily swayed from
her purpose; always constant and sincere; al
ways amiablc, pleasant and cheerful and for
more than half century was devoted member
of the Presby terrain Church (having united with
that body under the ministrations of DR.. Wis
ner, at Ithico, n. W and constant communi-
cant. She was loved and venerated here. She
has gone to partako of a higher reward from her
Covenant God, whom she trusted and loved.
Mrs. Allen was the widow Of Capt. Hannibal
Allen, the eldest son of tho old revolutionary
and Tconderoga hero. Her husband died at
Norfolk, Va. while in the service of his country,
April 3, 1913. Her brother, John NJ. Low,
In tho OQd Tn Of II Don
was killed in battle, while defending Fort Schlos-
SER and his body burned in tho Fort, on the
2lst of December, 1913. Her father was NOR
tally wounded, in his boat, while plotting Gen.
Van Ransalier's men across Niagara River
Only few months before her youngest brother
was killed while n Cadet, at West Point, by the
premature discharge Of n cannon, with which
he was practicing.
Thus her father, husband and brothers, have
all laid down themselves on the altar Of their
country and for its defense. Surely she has been
called upon to sacrifice enough, but she would
have freely parted with every friend and every
dollar she possessed for that devoted country
that country with such noble constitution, un-
til now, unimpaircd, enforced and acknowledged
as the supreme law of the land.
In our present national struggle she felt the
most intense interest, and was always eager to
obtain the daily papers to learn the latest news
from the scat Of war. Born but few months
after the date of that memorable instrument,
the constitution of the United States, March,
1888, she has lived MS long rs that char
been respected, and her greatest fear, on ap-
proaching dissolution, was that her country, with
its cherished constitution, might not survive her,
Married, in 1908, she spent the first years of her

The turnip taste in milk, can be effect
ually and easily cured. This we have
fully proved the present season. We are
indebted to correspondent in THE Coun-
try Gentleman for the information, which
has been worth more to us than the cost
of this paper whole year. No taste of
turnips can be detected. And this is the
remedy: Pour a pint of boiling water
upon an ounce of niter(nitrate Of potassa
common saltpeter), and when thorough
ly dissolved and cool, put in bottle for
use, where it will keep cool. When you
take the pail to milk, pour tablespoon
ful Of this solution into it, which is enough
for an ordinary sized pailrul of milk, and
it does the work efectually. 1t is said
that it also helps to sink the bad flavor
given to milk by other food that cows eat.
1t is worth knowing and should be re-
membered. 1t is worth thoroughly test
ing by dairymen and no pains spared to
overcome the evil Of tainted butter.
