Americans as Fruit Eaters.

The American people will not eat ba-
nanas this year. The iruit-importers
have discovered this, to their surprise
and disgust, and they were very much
worried at first over the cause. Why
have the people given up bananas? they
asked. anxiousy. New Orleans supplies
nearly all the West and South with ba-
nanas and other tropical fruit. and is the
larg's st importer in this country. But
bananas have sold so badly OF late that
the importers have cut down the number
of vessels running to Central America
one hall. They have only just discover
ed the trouble. The American people
have not lost their taste for the tropical
banana, but the lat ter has been knocked
out by the big apple crop of the West.
With apples at seventy FIVE cents a barrel
the banana has no show, for the average
man eats about the same amount of
irult each year. and prefers the cheapest.
1t is apples this year, to suit the hard
times, but it may be bananas next season.
So, at least, the importers hope Har-
per's Weekly.

Oh, thou Mind OF the universe, we who
detect in ourselves lree.wilI and an indi-
vidual consciousness that separates us
from the beasts and gives US sense OF
kinship with Thee, approach Thee with
| assurance.
For the protest Of the human mind
against the claim of any human knowl-
edge to be final and complete; for all
honest doubt that drives us steadily
forward to clearer comprehension; Tor
the great scientists who have helped TO
shake the dead husks from creeds and
opened the eyes of their makers ard
preachers to a fuller religion wherein the
unity and completeness OF Thy plan tor
onward movement, both in nature and
in revelation, are more fully recognized,
we thank Thee, Thou who art not far
from any one OF us.
For all passing away of forms and
ceremonies; fol the universal execration
OF hollow PharisaiSm, for the growing
under standing that sancity is never
more to be measured by mere attendance
at worship for the spiritual and material
progress OF our race; for Thy stately
steppings in human history, making lie
seem no longer a thing of chance but the
possible opening notes of grand eternal
symphony, we thank Thee, Thou who
dwellest not in temples made with hands.
For all sorrows that break down our
dissatisfaction; for the furnace OF Attic
ton that destroys the dross and makes
of the residue golden chaice for bear
ing solace to our fellows; Tor all agony
that touches us with he feeling OF
others in6rmities; we thank Thee,
though Thou afflct us sore, bending
over us as fryer and re6ner of precious
things.
For all great disasters that electrify us
with the feeling Of brotherhood to all
men, for famines and pestilences that
turn us for the time from the rakings of
selfishness to the works OF sympathy;
for sudden death and its warnings that
our own time is limited, we thank Thee,
Thou who hottest the fall of the sparrow.

LAyMAN's THANKSGIVING.


Oh, great Architect OF the infinite, to
whom a thousand years are as day,
we ephemeral, vanishing creatures bow
before Thee i'll quiet, humble thanks.
For unreasonable space, so extensive
that themost cunning devices of men turn
us back defeated from all attempts to set
itsbounds; for he weight olour world and
OF all the other wondrous, unsupported,
clrcling bodies, so ponderous that the
human mind reels in computation, we
thank Thee, Thou who art power.
For the accurate movement of each
star, revolving in its orbit with PIE
csion indescribabe; for the visible voice
OF the heavens, our perennial time piece ;
Tor the inclination of the axis OF our
world, so cunningly devised to give com
fort and advantage in the changing sea-
soDs and the broadened area of habita.
ton, we thank Thee, Thou who art
order.
Oh, Thou Mechanic Of the in6nitesimal,
we who are not the least OF all Thy crea-
lures enter Thy presence with praise.
For the perfect detail in the short-lived
gnat. dancing in the light of the dying
day; for the structural adaptation OF
those creatures that escape our vision
save as the eyes are aided by the micro.
scope; for the pervasiveness of life, things
even that die being the sustainers of
things that live; for the evasiveness oil
life, so that after all research we give up
ioiled in every attempt to find a natural
origin for life in the tiniest atom: for all
these things we thank Thee, Thou who
art life.
For our own bodies, sacred because
they are Thy handiwork, so brief in their
endurance and yet so potential because
OF the blessing or sorrow we pass to
those who come after us; for our brains
and their power to set us on the apex of
all living things; for thought and its
products in solid form that are seen in
every direction; iorthe challenge to effort
that comes from the elusive secrets of
nature; tor the power to conquer and
transform this inert world beneath our
feet we thank Thee, Thou who art
supreme intelligence

McKinIey's Summer Home.

The Sampson Wilder place on Walto-
ouoItoc Hill, Bolton, near Worcester,
Mass was purchased last Saturday by
a brother.m-law OF Mark Hanna. Great
secrecy was observed in the transaction
and Bolton people think the place is pur-
chased for a summer home for President
Mckinley though he says heknows moth
ing about it. Lafayette once stopped
over night at the house and it was ar
ranged that Emperor Napoleon should
make it his place of refuge after the bat
tie of Waterloo,

The Mary Lyon Centenary.

'>"oiy VI MARY Lyon s
birth occurs Feb. 2sth, 1897. She
was born in auckland, Mass, hill
town IN the western part of Frank.
lin county. There and in Ash6eld
an adjoining town, she laid the foun.
dations OF her career as a great
teacher. The Franklin County Asso
cation of Congregational ministers
at late meeting voted to recon.
mend to the ministers and churches
OF the conference to observe the cen.
tenary by sermon on the fourth
Sunday OF February on the life and
work of Mary Lyon and the taking
of an offering for the building fund
OF Mt. HoIyoke college. This action
was in line with DR.. Pearson's sue-
gestion, and it is hoped that it will
commend itself to the associa tions in
this state. SO far no one has come
forward with any considerable gift,
except DR.. Pearson, and it is evident
that if the college is to be put in
proper shape for the continuance Of
its grand book, help must come from
many quarters. Vermont from the
FIRST has had large representation
in the college, and New England
womanhood generally has been put
under lasting obligations to this
institution, so inseparably associ-
ated with the memory OF Mary
Lyon. Even in this day Of many col
leges for the higher education of
women there is not one that fills the
place Holyoke does. The moderate.
ness OF the expense, and the high
character of the instruction, give the
college a unique claim on the
churches. Most Of our churches sup.
port the Congregational Educational
society, a charity that is engaged in
helping needy western institutions.
Would it not be well for once, at
east, to give Holyoke a place in the
lis OF colleges that deserve the con-
sheraton and the gifts of our
churches. Apart from the pressing
need of new buildings to replace the
structure lost in the fire of Septem-
Der, the life and work OF Mary LYON
deserve more than passing consider
alton. Mrs. Ward in her interesting
sketches of Andover life pronounces
Mrs. Stowe the greatest American
woman she ever met. Mrs. Ward
was born too late to know Mary
Lyon. 1t may be doubted whether
our American life has produced a
woman with greater brain power,
greater executive capacity, greater
moral force than Mary Lyon. To
Mrs. Stowe belongs the proud emf
ence OF having written a story of
permanent interest, a story which in
its time had great effect on national
thought. Mary Lyon was the pio-
neer in the higher education of
women. The institution she planted
has been and is today one of the
greatest forces in our New England
Christianity. Wellesley is the repro
duction of Mt. Holyoke college. So
are numerous other institutions west
Of the Hudson. South Africa has
system of schools modelled on the
plan of Holyoke. 1t was saying of
Mary Lyon that she feared nothing
so much as not knowing her duty.
This explains in large measure her
great career. The sources of inform
alton respecting this remarkable
woman are easily accessible. A more
and inspiring theme for
the pulpit than her life and work can
be imagined,

Major Mckinley is said to be uncon-
cerned over the fate Of the Dingley. bill,
as he thinks 1t out of the question to hope
to reconcile the conflicting views Of re-
publicans, silver senators and President
Cleveland upon the tariff issue SO as to
bring out bill, that would meet the needs
Of the country as viewed from the McKin-
ley standpoint With this belief Major Nc
Kfnley thinks the only thing feasible Will
be an extra session Of congress to be
called Immediately after March 4. With
a. view of expediting matters, however 1t
is likely that the present committee On
ways and means will commence the
ground work of bill at this session. AL
of the Republican members Of the coma
mittee have been reelected, and there is
no reason to think that the personnel IF
the Republican side Of the committee viii
be changed at the extra session. BY cohs
ferring with Major Mckinley early in the
session this committee could get his views
and put in three solid months Of 4prelim-
mary work at this session. 1T is thought
that this is likely to be the program and
it this plan is agreed upon the Republi-
cans would not fret themselves over the
attempt to pass the Dingley bill through
the senate. ~, 4 u,

Rev. John Watson Clan MacLaren), in
the course of lecture before the Yale
Divinity School, touched on clerical cell
bacy as follows:
"The question of the eelibacy of the
clergy cannot be a vain one. 1t is also
one every man must face before ordina-
ton. In. many cases single man is
a more true servant Of the church. It
also costs the church at least a fifth less
to support him and he is at the absolute
disposal Of the church. It Is my opinion
that the time is not far distant when
without taking any vows there will be a
large body of unmarried clergymen."

WATT IRELAND MAY DO.

F. Successful industries in Ireland are
few, and any addition to their number Is
to be hailed with satisfaction, says the
Dublin Freeman. Year by year shoals o4
fish visit our coasts, and over and above
those which remunerate fishermen fol
their perilous toll there are others that
until now have had little or no CONNER
cial value Hitherto these have been left
to lie on the shore, or have been thrown
back into the sea. Now company has
been formed for the manufacture Of fish
oil and guano, and even the most UNI
marketable specimens of the finny tribe
that find their way into the nets Of Irish
fishermen will have their use. Should
the initial venture succeed to any extent
it is probable that in the course Of. time
the area OF the new companys operations
will extent around the whole coast 81

FAMINE IN IRELAND.

On the 9th of this month the following
report came from London: 49,
The irrepressible Irish question Is conl1
famine. The correspondent Of the Man
chester Guardian, one Of the most trust
worthy. and least sensational papers in
England, declares that no such appalling
prospect has presented itself during the
the present generation. Concurring re
ports show that the prolonged and con-
tinuous rains of the autumn have ruined
the crops from north to south.
The rich lower lands have been flooded
for weeks at a time when the harvest
ought to have been proceeding. Corn
and haystacks have been submerged and
potatoes are rotting in the fields. In the
cotter population are again face to face
with one of those failures of the potato
crop which have too often brought the
uttermost horrors of starvation and fam
inc and disease among them.
AS usual the government is doing MOTH
ing. The Irish secretary's tour in the
west and northwest occurred before the
bad weather set in, and at a. time when
little could be predicted Of the harvests..
Since then he has obtained reports from
official sources-from landlord sources
which can only be described as mislead-
ing. y
The farmers on many Of the large es-
tates have informed their landlords
agents that no rent can be paid this year,
because no rent has been earned. But the
landlords have entered into a combina-
ton for wholesale pressure on the ten
ants: Using their utmost privileges un-
der the land act, they are applying for
ejectment DEGREES by the thousand, and
an eviction campaign in Ireland is now in
progress in many districts.
AS soon as the rigors of winter set in
the demand for relief will be clamorous.
The government will be compelled to in
tervene before Parliament opens. or face
an accusation of reckless Indifference to
suffering such as ought to overwhelm any
English ministry. .:sh
With this famine impending, combined
with the revelations Of the Financial Re-
lations Commission, showing how Ireland
is annually bled OF millions of money to
the advantage of Great Britain, it will be
no wonder if Irish discomfort assumes a
more active form than mere talk over
legislation for Home Rule. s{*
|. A land overlooking with: everything
that nature can give and yet be depressed
puzzles the thoughts of men. Is there no
man in that beauteous isle that can lead
to redemption?

M,KINLEY.ON RECIPROCITY.

The Evening Telegram, Of Toronto,
Canada, recently sent a representative to
Canton to Interview Preside nt-elect Nc
Kinley on matters that will be interesting
to Canadians; but especially as to his
views concerning reciprocity with the
country. The major was on-comnittiaal,
He regretted his inability to make any
prophecy 90 to the results Of any reciproee.-.
characterization. IT do not know" he said;
what the new congress will do concern
ing tbs tariff. OF course. the question Of
reciprocity viii. be one Of the things to be
considered, for it will certainly be pre-
sented.''
Mr.. Mckinley sent this message to the
people Of Canada II hope that the
amity Of good feeling between the two
countries will continue, and that we may
know more of each other as the years SO
on. We have so much in common that
we are justified in expressing that hope.
