THOUGHTS FOR THANKSGIVING.
The Day Should be just What The
Word Implis s.

This Thanksgiving feast has more
Of a National character than any
proclaimed in many years. IL finds
nearly all the people contented and
happy. The farmer, the mechanic,
the mercantile man and the bsnker,
feel the pressure Of abundance The
yield of cereals has been greater by
good per cent. than for any other
year IN the Nations history. The
big foreign demand holds the
prices and foreign gold is pouring
to our shores. Many other farm
products find there way to foreign
markets that were heretofore exclud-
ed by high tariffs.
Commercial industries are SPRING
ing up all over the land. Where in
years gone by the approach of win
ter was signal for dread among
the poorer classes, it now has a diff
terent meaning for them. 1t former
ly meant idleness and want. This
year there is peace and plenty.
There is much, indeed, to be thank
full for. If the failure of crops in
Europe will lead to serious distress
there during the present year, Amer
lea will not be the last TO respond.

question, and still lookngi over his

piled: "There are worse things than
typhoid fever stalking the streets of
Chicago, and men are running after
them instead avoiding them. I
mean long dresses which fashion has
ordered women to wear.
