Thanksgiving.

| The American farmer has much to be
thankful for, and the rest of the country
has much cause to be thankful for the
American farmer and for the American
farms, for, the farms of this country, have
not only fed and clothed all the people of
this country but have furnished for export
to foreign countries nearly 5000, 900, 600
worth Of produce, oyer $4,000, 900 per
month, nearly $3, O00 600 for each secular
day of the year, exceeding in value the
combined product Of the gold and silver
mines and Of the manufactures of the
try, great as these are, and if it were not
for the farms these would all languish and
die. And of this great wealth from the
farms, one crop, cotton, furnished $500, 900,
600 worth for export of this crop we haye
practical monopoly Of the production of
the world. By the shlpment of this vast
amount of the products of the American
farms we are told that the balance OF trade
is in our favor, our exports largly exceeding
our imports, yet but little gold comes this
way, only in an emergency, and to plain
farmer it would seem as though it must be
absorbed by the immense sums represented
by the letters Of credit carried abroad by
American tourist in Europe, and also by
those carried by the American heiresses
who go abroad to purchase husband with
a title and generally get with them
misery.
Let us then all give hearty thanks FOR
the American farmer and for the American
FARMS the product of which are now oyer
taxing the capacity Of the railroads of the
country to carry, for upon these depends
all our prosperity.

Warm borax water will remove dan

A little soda water will relieve SICK
headache caused by indigestion.
A cupful of hot water drunk before
meals will relieve nausea and dys-

Laughing and Crying

Isn't a good cry as conducive 10
fairness as good laugh? Both cause
tears. Jupiter laughed necessarily TOT
seven days after he was born. Wnat
was he laughing at? DR.. Jeddier
looked upon the world as huge prac-
tical Joke, something too absurd 10
he considered seriously by any ra-
tional nan. Heraclitos was the cry
ing philosopher, as Demrocrltus was
the laughing philosopher. Tears OF
I.uqbter and tears of crying come
from the same source, through
caused by entirely different emotions;
Something excites the lychrymal
glands, which overflow, discharglng
through the lachrymal punctures, one

design of the lachrymal apparatus IS
to keep the eye clean by flushing the
surface with a saltish, clear, Watery
f1uid. When this fluid runs over the
margin of the lid it forms tears.
