ed The difficulty, not to say impossi

present state of the monument may be
inferred from the fact that the dates
which different careful observers have
deduced for its erection extend over /;
period of more than 1000 years.

sy of others, and how unworthy do we
consider the migrate! writes Rev. S. r.
Willis in the New York Ledger. He is
one of the most contemplate characters
with which we meet. We consider him
even uncivil who does not spontaneously
say or write "Thank you" for the favors
and kindness shown him by his fellow
man. And this word of grateful appre-
citation is never lost. Even If it may
seem to have no effect upon him for
whom it was given, it will not be lost
upon those who hear. nor will its nflu-
encc be powerless upon him who bestows
1t. A cultivation of the thanksgiving
habit will make to grow the sense of APP
probation, and as a result our spirits will
be sweetened. our souls enlarged and
the whole horizon Of life beautified. Then
the ordinary affairs of life will never
more be commonplace: our conditions and
surroundings will always appear in a
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 relationships
and the daily intercourse to become col
orless and arid. Such man keeps love
alive by cultivating the sentiment of af-
lection. His face, his voice, his deed,
makes the old courses of life brim and
sparkle with a full current of tenderness
and feeling. So it is again with tile
great artist who sees the common in an
uncommon light and clothes the most or
binary objects with beauty and charm.
In like manner the religious nature dis
closes its presence by the unfailins fresh
ness of its feeling for all relations and
seasons and customs and days. 1t num-
bers its blessings daily, and daily does
it express gratitude because it feels deep
~ and gladly the weight of its vast in
debtedness. The years may differ great
Is in the comforts and blessings riley
bring, but Gods unbroken beneticcnce
knows no divisions of time. His bounty
is an unbroken eternity. All years,
however hard in the experiences they
bring, are years of blessedness; it should
be ours to receive what God sends and
to be constantly thankful.

HOW TO COOK THE TURKEY.


Some Practical Advice Given by n
New York Chef.
There is chef in one of the large
hotels of New York who is famous for
his roast turkey. Turkey under his
hands comes out not only beautiful
brown, but of a delicious flavor quite diff
ferent from any other turkey that ever
was seen. The turkey meat is positive
ly rich, and even the white meat that is
generally dry has moist. spicy taste
This is his recipe for roast turkey:
Clean the turkey with as little handling
as possible and rinse with water in which
n little baking soda has been dissolved
Now break up about half a pint of bread
crumbs, and into the crumbs chop two
links of pork sausage. Stuff the turkey
with this mixture and just before put
ting into the oven bind salt pork on the
breast of the turkey. Remove the pork
just before the turkey is taken from the
oven. When the meat is carved, its
flavor will be found very superior. This
is particularly to be recommended for
the Thanksgiving turkey, which, with so

The menu of that immortal dinner has
not, alas! been preserved, but it is known
that the two dishes most fully appre-
ciated by the Indians us well as the
Americans were the "brown roast tur-
key" and the pumpkin pie. The great
feast of the week was outdoors, for the
air was balmy aud the sun bright. Mas
sasoit was there in all the bravery of
n scarlet coat trimmed with lace and a
copper chain, given him, some time pre-
vious, by Edward Winslow. In strange
medley of Indian garb and borrowing of
European costume, the guest of honor
was feted and entertained, cementing
there the bond of friendship with the
white settlers which held good forty-one
years.-Good Housekeeping.

New Use for Bees

Down OH Long Island the farmers
have discovered that persons suffering
from rheumatism and sciatica can OBJ
tain relief BY allowing honey bees to
sting the affected parts. This is very
unpleasant process and entirely unnec-
essary. The poison of the bee sting Is
chiefly formic acid. This acid is also
found in singing nettles, in ants and
some varieties of the caterpillars.
There is no ditliulty in preparing for.
mic acid, and 1t would seem that ply
sicians might find it advantageous to
experiment with 1t as Il remedy for
rheumatic troubles-cither in acid form
or in formates. Certainly some means
can be devised of introducing 1t into the
circulation less painful than allowing
bees to sting a rheumatic sufferer by

be so drawn that it can be easily tied.
Shocks tied in this manner seldom get
twisted or out of condition.
For hauling in fodder we have two
designs. One of theme is an ordinary
sled-like device that is easily construct
ed and will be found very handy for
hauling fodder. 1t will be found espe-
cially handy in loading fodder. Some
use this sled for hauling and the
shocks are not torn apart in hauling.
but are simply tipped over on the sled
and hauled away in this manner. The
other device consists in a peculiarly
constructed rack to be placed on a low

The prediction made in 1880 that the
population of the United States would
now be eighty millions is fully verified
BY the same geometrical progression
the statisticians give us 100 millions

about eighteen years from now. There
will be no more large farms in the

About twenty-five acres will be the
average size of holdings, as now in
