| The train due at Paris Junction al
9:35 was ten minutes late on Thanks
giving morning. As it halted before
the little station, which stood amid
bare brown fields at the crossing OF
the two railroads, gentleman and a
lady stepped to the platform.
| The lady gathered her sealskin cape
around her and hurried into the depot
She was a plump, middle-aged woman
with clear, dark face. When the
gentleman entered the room, she was
addressing the station agent.
How long before the next train
west on the other road?" she asked in
a voice OF peculiar sweetness.
The man started and drew nearer.

She turned appealingly to her fc..
low traveller. He stepped forward,
lifting his hat.
A glance into the strong face lighted
by frank gray eyes, and she gave a
little cry, a soft rose-pink flush stain
ing her cheeks.
Leon Barley! How do you hap
pen to be here?" and she timiily ex-
tended her hand.
Il am on my way TO spend Thanks
giving with my old friends. the Her.
ringtons, at Latimer."
And to eat my Thanksgiving tur-
key with my cousin. Lulu Myers"
A moments silence fell between
them. The station agent had retired
to his little den, which contained his
desk. leaving the two travellers in pos
session of the room. There was brisk
fire In the stove, and the air was laden
with the fumes of the soft coal. Aside
from the stove, the sole furniture of
the room consisted of wooden bench
which extended along two slles. The

Outside there was only the shining

THANKSGIVING

To the. popular mind the word
Thanksgiving" stands for = day OF
festivity. But they who lose its sub
jective meaning in mere creature en-
toyment suffer a misfortune and miss
an opportunity.
To our fathers, Thanksgiving was q
sacrament. 1t was one OF their acts
Of religion to set apart for II an an
nual day. Heaven had blessed their
harvests, and they wished to express
in a special way appreciation of its
favors.
Nothing In their example was more
sane and sensible than the creation of
this November family custom, now be-
come national. There have been
changes Of our social life since the
old time. These have made 1t less easy
to observe the day SO generally with
public rites OF worship, but the ordi-
nance holds its place with pleasing At
ness, and with ample reason.
We have thousandfold more to be
devoutly glad for than our fathers
had; and the feeling and the faith
they carried with them to the solemn
assembly" we can radiate in brighter
homes and wider activities Of kind
ness.
The unfolding Christian age has
given us the larger thought OF the
meaning and mission OF freedom and
of civilization: the grander type and
idea OF benevolence: the tenderer be-
liefs that sweeten life and death with
hope. For all these let us thank God.
Gratitude is not only "a natural
function of the healthy soul; 1t is
Its wealth. Invest 1t. It's interest will
enrich the character, and uplift the
whole life.

saloons In Germany.

Moralists say that the number oil
saloons is gauge for the morals oil
city. but in Bremen the number OF
saloons or restaurants is frequently
influenced by the influx OF tourists
who visit place regularly, or by
similar circumstances. Thus Mayence
has one saloon restaurant for every
80 Inhabitants, Berlin one for every
i35 residents. Hanover one for every
24S persons, Magdeburg one for every
22S inhabitants, Brunswick one for
every 257 persons Essen, in the
manufacturing district of Westphalia
offers little attraction to tourists;
hence there Is only one saloon restau-
rant to every 457 inhabitants, but 1t
does not appear that the people at Es-
sen are any better than those at May

Mr.. Young received an academi

R. E. Steele, of this place, is a
candidate for delegate to the Nation
al convention which meets at Kan
sas City, July 4; We understand
that Mr.. Steele has received con-
siderable encouragement from other
counties and has good chance of
winning, as there are only two other
candidates in the the district, and it
is entitled to two delegates. Meade
county will no doubt be favorable
to Mr.. Steele's candidacy, as We
have heard a number of democrats
express themselves that way.
Meade county has had one dele
gate to national convention, and
that was w. G. Emerson, to the re-
publican convention at Chicago in
1888.
