THANKSGIVING DAY is a day for
giving thanks. If the fayors OF Provi-
deDce have been upon US, it ought to be
A day not only to feel glad ourselves
but to give thanks by making others
happy. One can better enjoy the day
with its festivities if he has also con-
tributed to the cheer of some who have
seen only the frown of fortune. Thanks
giving should be a day of fellowship and
good will, and those who have prospered
greatly will not prosper less by aiding
in making it a joyful day for the poor
around them. Then, too, everyone can
find something for which to be thankful.
If they have Jared badly they may be
thankful they did not fare worse. On
the other side, it may be true, that those
who have the most to be thankful for
are really the least grateful and the less
observe the true spirit of the day. To
many the term Thanksgiving is only a
name, and the only significance given it
is as feast day. 1t is right to feast,
but in feasting we are more likely to
credit our good fortune to our own
thriftiness than to give thanks that
Providence has placed such favorable
conditions around US. For whatever We
have and are let US give thanks.

Micrnhcs rom oId Grares.

1t Is asserted that the efforts to abolish
infectious diseases, such as scarlet fever
and diphtheria, are frustrated by the
burial of infected bodies, for though the
microbes themselves may die their
spores, or seeds, have very great vitality.
Pasteurs researches have proved that
earthworms bring up 10 the surface
microbes from the bodies of infected
animals buried several feet deep. Oar
win showed in one case that in fifteen
years they had accumulated worm mold
over three inches in depth, and in an
other case during eighty years had ac-
cumulated an average depth of more
than foot.
In a field in the Jura, where diseased
COW had been buried at depth of nearly
seven feet, Pasteur found that the mold
which he collected two years later con-
tanned germs which on being inoculated
into guinea pig produced death from
the same disorder of which the COW died.
Ina Yorkshire village part of disused
graveyard was taken into the rectory gar
den adjoining. On the earth being dug
over scarlet fever broke out in the rec
tory nursery and thence spread over the
village. 1t proved to be of the same
type as that from which. thirty years
before, the victims died who were buried
in that particular part of the churchyard.
On the opening of a smallpox burying
ground in Quebec, $50 years old, small
pox Immediately broke out among the
workmen.-Youth's Companion.

The Death of Jumbo.

The story told by Scott, the keeper
who went to America with Jumbo. of
the elephants death is sad. The animals
were being loaded while the circus was
performing, and Scott was walking
Jumbo along the railroad between two
rows of trucks.
There was another elephant with them
"a dwarf elephant bought in Singapore
in 1888 to be ''clown elephant" Jumbo
would not go anywhere without him.
On this occasion the small elephant was
going in front, and when the train came
round the curve Jumbo caught hold of
his chum and pushed him between two
freight trucks. This saved the small
one, who only got his leg broken, but
Jumbo was badly cut up by the heavy
locomotive and died about an hour after.

The Fashionable Calling Card.

There is no more important factor in
social life than the visiting card. Ac-
cording to the stern DEGREES of fashion,
this bit of paste board plays a tyrant's
part, and one might as well be dead as
out of the fashion in visiting cards, to
say nothing of other less important
things.
This season the visiting card will be
nearly square in shape, slightly smaller
than those of last year; pure white, of a
highly polished but not glazed surface:
the name engraved in script through
the middle Of the card; the address in
the lower right hand corner, and the
day of receiving in the lower left hand
corner.
The card should spell out the hus-
bands given name in full and not give
initials, and never include a title or
profession. A daughter the first year
of her going into society must have her
name added on her mothers card.
After that, if the eldest, she may have
her own card. with Miss Jones or Miss
De Puyster, as the case may be.-New
York Herald.
