Thanksgiving Sermon Preached by
a Washington Minister.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-At the
Metropolitan NJ. e. Church, where Pres
ident Mckinley attended services to-
day, the Rev. D. S. Johnston read the
Thanksgiving proclamation of the Pres
idnt, and said that in issuing it the
President showed piety and wisdom
which augured well for the nation.
Prosperity is here said the minis
ter. "The light of better days is shin
ing on us, and though it will take time
we are gaining. Times are hard, but
not as hard as they have been, and peo-
pie should thank God that it is no worse.
after the experiences of the past four
years"
DR.. Johnston quoted statistics to prove
his assertion that prosperity had re-
turned, referring to the large crops of
wheat, cotton and other products.
THE created values of this year in the
United States were estimated at four
teen billions he said. and he enlarged
on the greatness of this nation and its
mission Oh earth.
Speaking of the perils that threaten
the nation he said that chief among
them with rum, socialism and Jesuit
ism.
He spoke at some length against the
danger of a forei-n church of ascend
ency, and said that if Jesuitism ever
prevails in this country the United
States will become as Mexico, Italy and
SPAIN
He advocated giving the Catholics the
same civil rights that every man en-
joyed. but that this church be warned
to keep its hands off the State

We are not new to

not new comers to

lifetime has been
spent in this same
business within the
borders of California.
We have uniformly
been successfu1-con-
stant1y en1arging the
scope of our ambi-
ton. 1t is not ego
tism to state that our
name is favorably
known in every coun-
ty and to every mer-
chant. We shall
bring new ideas, pre-
sent merchandise
that will merit your
confidence in it and
in us. But honorable
gain is the legiti-
mate end Of business.
The man who can
best reconcile that
with your own inter-
ests will have your
patronage. We think
we can do it. We saw
the best opening in
the State in Sacra-
mento, and we have
come not for a day,
not for a year, but
permanently to attest
that here is the pro-
per field for the new,

There are many people in the world
who seem to the onlooker, the care
full observer Of affairs, to be of very
great Importance to the progress of
society, and there are others who ap-
parently will not be missed when they
disappear. The first class we cali our
great men. We chronicle their doings
while they live, and build monuments
to them when they die. No one ever
gives thought to the second class
except the Lord. They come without
herald, and they go without leaving
the echo of a football. THIS vast az
gregate whose little lives are reckoned
as of no consequence includes you and
me and nearly all the people we are
acquainted with.
One of the things which | admire in
the Christian religion is it's relation to
these two classes of persons. 1t tells
US that God can get on withou, the
| greatest as we'll as without the small
est. His resources are not exhausted
by the death of poet, scholar or
statesman. Even while we mourn our
loss and feel that universal progress
| has been blocked some one, some new
and gifted soul, comes into the light
and does such grand work that in a
few months our buried hero is half for
gotten. The treasury of the Lord is
full of men whom an emergency or a

fitting opportunity will throw to the

fitting opportunity will throw to the
front as competent leaders.
But | am more interested in the
fact that each one Of US, however hum
BILE our sphere may be, weighs in the
scales of God. A human life is always
important, and never yet has soul
visited this earth that did not have
some special work to do. You may
not think this of your own life, for
you have often thought that you are
of no use to anybody. Your circle is
so small, your influence is SO slight,
your opportunities are 50 few That
is the way you reason, because there
are some things which you do not
know If you did know them you
would see the weakness Of your argu-
ment, just as the angels see it who
from their high vantage ground look
down on your whole life. If you were
a giant, you say, and could shake So
clety to its centre with your warning
voice, could fear the evils out Of the
body of the community and pat nobler
usages and customs in their place,
then life would be worth the living.
Sometimes you have longing to do
that, but since il is beyond you you
sink back discouraged. Your utmost
| endeavors are confined TO a small
family circle or tc a few friends and
neighbors. The ambition in your
heart cannot be gratifed. You feel
its throbbings, but must suppress them
with a sigh. You are hampered by
circumstance, you are unable because
of chance or tate-might it not be

to develop the ability which you are
conscious of possessing, and there IS
likely to be no change for the better
in the future You are living and you
will die in chains, and you grow rest
less, dscon,en,ed, unhappy. You
have been deprived Of your chance &c
do something worthy Of yourself, and
unless you are careful your nature vii
become soured 10y that thought.

HIS strong and bra Hny arms
Her shoulder just came up to them,
A slender maid was she,
ct that she ruled that stalwart youth
was very plain to see.
All, earnestly he spoke to her,
The burning words he said
She seemed to hear and heed, and yet
She lifted not her head,
For on some daisies in her hand
Her eyes were fixed, and these
She plncked to pieces one by one
And cast upon the breeze.
AS the last leaf she plucked and flung
1t on the wind, she turned
Her eyes to his and saw the love
Within their depths that burned,
And then at last she seemed to cast
All doubt, all fear aside
Her love she did confess and gave
Her troth to be his bride.
Over the fence he lightly leaped
And clasped her to his breast,
And to her cheek, that brightly burned
His glowing lips he pressed
Then, as the sunsets rosy glow
frightened the peaceful land,
With happy hearts toward her home
They wandered hand in hand.
Her father in the doorway stood
AS they came up the walk,
Indifferent to all around,
Absorbed in sweetest talk.
lie knew what suit his neighbOr'S son
Would make to him and smiled,
For ever had he wished that he
Should wed his darling child.
And when the young man, stammering
asked
If he might wed the maid
The old man in her lovers hand
His daughters gently laid
The kindly words he uttered filled
With joy the lovers heart,
And to each other pledged two lives
That only death could part.
