not be lost upon those who hear. nor
will its influence be powerless upon
him who bestows it. A cultivation of
the thanksgiving habit will make to
grow the sense of appreciation, and
as a result our spirits will be swaet-
ened, our souls enlarged and the whole
horizon of life beautified 4 hen the
ordinary affairs of life will never more
be commonplace; our conditions and
surroundings will always appear in
fresh light. This is significant. The
man whose family find in him source
of endless delight and joy is one who
does not suffer the common relation
ships and the daily intercourse to be-
come colorless and arid. Such man
keeps love alive by cultivating the
sentiment of affection. His face. his
voice. his deed. makes the cd courses
of life brim and sparkle with a full
current of tenderness and feeling. So
it is again with the great artist who
sees the common in an uncommon
light and clothes the most ordinary
objects with beauty and charm. In
like manner the religious nature dis
closes it's presence by the unfailing
freshness of it's feeling for all rela-
tions and seasons and customs and
days. It numbers it's blessings daily,
and daily does it express gratitude be-
cause it feels deeply and gladly the
weight of it's vast Indebtedness. The
years may differ greatly in the COM
forts and blessings they bring. but
Gods unhroken beneficence knows no
divisions of time. His bounty is an
unbroken eternity. All years, how
ever hard in the experiences they
bring, are years of blessedness; 1t
should be ours to receive what God
sends and to be constantly thankful.
We should thank him who has made
us and preserved us as II nation.
Who revealed this continent when
the proper time had come, and called
to its shores faithful and G d.y men
who believed in Him and in men as
His children.
Who preserved the national seeds
planted in our colonies and united
them for liberty and independence.
Who made our young nation wise IN
counsel and strong in def ansa.
Who pacified the strfes and era.i-
Gated the jealous.es that separated
our states and Joined them anew In
one indissolubla union.
Who has given us the wisdom to es-
tabl.sh free schools and free churches.
and has given us brave hearted and
clear headed men to sacrifice and toll
for the public virtue and peace.
Who has given us an open Bible. n
risen Christ. loving church and q
redeeming God.
Who crowneth this year OF graco
with His bcuntiful goodness.
Oh. that men would praise the Lord
for His goodness and His wonderful
works to the children OF men!

The ThnnksgivIng Tab.
.NMNNlIlNu

The table for the Thanksgiving DIM
ner should be set with the prettiest
glass, china and silver that the house
affords. Little individual paper cups
with frills of orange-colored tissue pa
per. at each place would brighten tho
table. These are filled with nuts and
candies. Name cards are decorated
with bow of orange ribbon or some
appropriate decoration as a pumpkin,
turkey, autumn scene, flower or leaf or
some appropriate quotation sketched in
pen and ink or painted in water color.
These of course for family reunion
are not necessary, but they serve to
make the table decorations more pleas
ing. Gourds followed out make pretty
receptacles for nuts. Pressed ferns and
autumn leaves also add much to the
table decorations.

MR.. CUMMINS AND THE TICKET.
Nevada Representative.
There has been considerable discus
sion over the state about how Mr.. Cum
Minis would run with his ticket. In Story
county the variations between candi-
dates are very small. but in the sum-
mary Mr. Cummins is last of the state
candidates and eleventh out of thirteen
candidates upon the whole republican
ticket. In Des Moines county, which
has been the headquarters of the oppo-
sition to Mr.. Cummins, he runs ahead
and carries the county, being the first
republican candidate for governor to do
80 since Governor Gear was candidate.
1t is hard to draw any real conclusions
from such data. The candidate at the
head of the ticket gets few votes
which thru carelessness in marking the
ballots are cast for him alone; but as a
rule he is likely to contribute what per-
sonal strength he has to the whole tick
ct, while minor candidates, if they have
any exceptional strength, are often able
to draw it only for themselves.

and an assistant, all armed with shot
guns, waited all night. but without get

the result that it was learned the man

City on the charge Of burglary. His
term in the county jail terminated last
Friday, SO that he is not a stranger to
Evans. After serving his term in the
penitentiary he, in company with an
other convict. came to this city and
within three days from the time of their
arrival married two girls, Miss Maud
Cassidy and Miss Broksa. There is no
doubt that he is the man wanted and
that his examination will result in dis
closures that will be of benefit to the
officials.
