A grateful heart is an unmis-
taxable sign of a noble life. True
thankfulness of soul is a never
failing remedy for the chronic
grumbler. If the world had more
thankful hearts, it would have fewer
sad hearts. If people would spend
the time they use in complaining, in
counting. their blessings and thank
ing God for them, their lives would
be brighter, and their friends more
happy.
Were the cursing people of Amer
lea to convert their oaths into
anthems of praise the sun would
shine brighter, the birds sing
sweeter, and all nature would thank
God and take courage. Let us all
move over into Thanksgiving street
today and begin to make the world
brighter because of the place we
have had in it.

Thanksgiving Day is associated in
our minds with family reunions and
the good cheer of the table, but the
origin of it was when our land was
new, and the people were extremely
poor, often in want of the common
necessaries of life.
We are told that in New England,
in the early years of its settlement,
crops had failed and as the greatest
hardships were coming, which would
bring sickness and death to many, as
well as hunger and cold, they
appointed a day of fasting and
prayer that their calamity might be
turned aside; on the evening next to
this fast day there came into the
harbor ship from England carrying
supplies for the settlers. Upon this
then. mourning was turned into JOY
and Thanksgiving was inaugurated
under circumstances of the most
impressive character.

Her face, though not as handsome as some,
Is yet attractively sweet;
Her dress, though not a costly one,
is tasteful, nice and neat.
She lightens her mother Of many cares:
To her father she is kind
Showing in many remarkable ways,
A well directed mind.
She can wash, sew, sweep and cook,
And do it deity, too,
And she can enjoy a new book
AS well as even you.
She can beautiful fancy work do,
In the genuine Kensington stitch;
She can sing, and play the organ, too;
From low to highest pitch.
She can harness the team and drive to town;
And, it may be shocking to you,
But she can run the reaper and gather corn
And be a lady, too.

Hand county now has a women school superintendent
in the person of Miss Margaret Duthie who is making
drives alone in a buggy of fifty and sixty miles some
days over the thinly settled prairies to visit the schools.
This is a part of the duties of a superintendent that many
men shrink from, but Miss Duthie enjoys the task.
In addition to visiting the schools and attending to the
routine work Of the Office, she still finds time to dash off
a column or two Of interesting matter for the papers.
She was raised on the farm, acquiring an education and
her present position by her own efforts.

Springdale, Capt. E.. T.. Sheldon's home place, six miles
east of here is one Of these natural beauty spots. The
house and buildings may be seen for miles away, and to
drive to the very door of the residence nothing unusal
attracts the eye, but to go a few steps further north you
behold at the bottom of a 5O-foot pitch a beautiful lake
shaped like a horseshoe about a quarter of a mile long
and some so feet wide, 20 feet deep in places. Fish
abound in the water and wild fowl swim over them. On
the steep sides of the hill about the lake are wild cherry,
buffalo berry, plum, and other trees in abundance and
black raspberry and other vines. The lake is fed by
two ever-aowing springs on higher ground east of it,
There are two more such natural spots on the ranch far
Their out, but after that there are no more such scenes
for miles around there. No doubt but this horseshoe
lake was a resort for Indians in the past. 1t offered a
sure trap into which to drive buffalo or wild game.

Sultan Has Many Freaks.

The sultan of Morocco plays both
tennis and cricket. At cricket he takes
turn at the wicket more often than
the strict rules of the game allow;
but, though his play is often eccentric,
he never cheats. Once at tennis he
stopped to take a bulky handkerchief
from his pocket, and tied it to the net.
A few minutes later a ball from his
opponent knocked 1t off and handful
of diamonds fell out. He owns about
200 bicycles, some with gold and silver
fittings, and it is said that he could
make his living as trick rider, One
of his favorite amusements is to ride
at full speed up narrow inclined planks
The sultan also has weakness for
motor cars and grand pianos.

The Ideal Wife.

A Chicago clergyman preached n
practical sermon on the ideal wife.
The necessary attributes he dwelt on
especially were truth, gentleness and
pleasing appearance.
To attain the realms of the ideal a
wife must be absolutely truthful to
her husband; she should never criti.
else her husband, nor be scold; she
must look her best at all times, and
it is a sin for her to be careless about
her personal attire in the presence OF
her husband.
These are the quite sensible points
made during the course of the sermon
but there was one essential virtue
omitted. The reticence that will pre-
vent woman from ever confiding to
people outside her home what trou
bles she may meet with there.
But when are the clergymen going
to tell the world what the ideal hus'
band should be?

A popular and efficient baking powder re-
quires two things-first, that the food made
with it shall be absolutely wholesome +;
second, that it shall be sold at reasonable
price.
In talking about the healthfulness OF
baking powder, 1t must be remembered
that baking powder is not an article of diet
any more than compressed yeast. Ono
would be quite as Objectionable for food as
the other, except that of the two, the bak-
ing powder might be preferable
We do not eat either baking powder or
yeast. What we do eat is the biscuit and
bread raised with them. When placed upon
the table no yeast remains in the bread and
no baking powder in the biscuit. Both
leavening agents have been DESTROYED in
the aeratlon and the baking; otherwise, in
stead Of light bread and biscuit we should
have mass of heavy, hard baked dough.

The truth is women do not care
about food. When it's for themselves
it ceases to interest them. Women
who live alone can never be trusted to
eat at all. 1t is sad commentary on
the sex that Eve should so long have
resisted the seductions of that apple.
What, of course, overcame her was
the desire to have something she
knew she ought not to have-a per-
fectly rational and feminine desire.
The thing itself had no influence over
her; it might just as well have been
a cigar-cutter as an apple,-Liverpool

VALUABLE FOR FIRE FIeHTERa
Portable Breathing Apparatus an IN
vention Of Much Merit.


In Europe a respiratory ana Ile-
saving apparatus has been used with
considerable success by miners, nre-
men and others, who are required 10
penetrate mines or apartments tnat
are filed with smoke or unbreathaoIe
gases. especially after accidents sucn
as explosions. With this apparatus
sufficient air and oxygen are carried
to support respiration for two hours
even while the individual is working.
The apparatus consists of a mask OF
helmet, which completely covers the
face, but exposes the ears, so that
while the eyes of the wearer are pro-
tected from the smoke he can near
distinctly.
There are connected with the mask
two rubber bags-one for the exhaled
air and the other connected with the
oxygen and the regenerated air. The
former Is contained in steel cylinders,
and by means of proper reducing
valves acts on the air after the car
bonic acid which has been exhaled is
absorbed by graduated potash The
instrument weighs about twenty-eight
pounds, but is sure in its action, and
has been used successfully by the
Paris fire department, where, in ad-
dition, portable electric lights with
flexible cables form a part of the
equipment, and thus allow firemen to
penetrate dark and smoky rooms and
cellars to save life or cut off gas or
electricity, or perform some other use

is valuable in case of accidents due to
fre-damp or explosion, and 1t is com.
