THANKSGIVING DAY.

Thanksgiving Day which is celebrat-
ed today is peculiarly an American holi'
day in its national aspect though Its
origin is lost in antiquity. For centur-
les back, even into the remote ages,
peoples in different lands would, after
the ingathering of the harvest, render
thanks for the plentitude of fruits ana
cereals Of the earth. Gratitude would
be expressed in dissimiliar manner, but
mostly Of religious kind. 1t has been
the custom of the countries Of Europe
during the Christian era for the people
to decorate their temples of worship
with the earth's frultage during the fall
and congregations would gather and in
triumphant cauticles, appropriate to the
festival, render thanks for the gifts of a
bountiful providence. But it has re-
manned for the United States, through
her government to recognize an infinite
force working through Nature as the
source of uumeasured grace, and such
preston in the dedication of this day to
untrammalled joy. The wheels OF the

centuries preceding it. The people not

ligious freedom not only Of education
but Of material comforts: not only of
