GROWS ELOQUENT.

The Madison Advertiser gets elo-
quent. It says: The rustling wind
and frosty mornings remind one that
this is November-the season of Indian
summer, red apples, ripe chastnuts,
persimmons, pumpkin pies, 'possum
and potatoes, of Thanksgiving and Of
Harvest Home Bryant called them
the melancholy days, the saddest of all
the year, but to many OF US they are
the best There is an intermingling of
pleasure and pathosi in November which
cannot be experienced during any other
season. There's the golden sunlight
and glistening dew drops; the gentle
rain and falling leaf, all reminding US
that there is still pleasure and pain in
this. world of ours. but that pleasure
predominates. The crisp atmosphere
gives keenness to the appetite and lends
activity to the erstwhile lanquid body.
Sultry summer days are no more. The
farmer gamers the golden grain into
his barns and prepares for winter while
the sun still shines. In the country
peace and plenty reign supreme, and
our people have every cause for graft
tude to the 'Giver of every good and
perfect gift Let US enjoy the bless
ings of Gods glorious sunlight, the
beauty of His woods and the sunset,
which no painters brush can initiate
nor pen describe. And let US lift our
hearts unto Him for His loving kind
ness to the children of men.
