THANKSGIVING.

Peculiarly appropriate to a busy,
| energetic people, such as ours, is the
setting apart of this one day in the
year when the minds Of all are turned
naturally by custom to thoughts of
the things they should be thankful
for, the good things of the past and
those to come.
Our forefathers, who established
this happy custom, this day of ma
tional thanksgiving, had really little
to be thankful for as compared with
the manifold blessings which are
heaped upon US of today.
Throughout the state of Kansas,
throughout the entire nation in fact,
our prosperity is wonderful and its
future is assured. Our harvests were
never more profitable even when more
abundant. There is no fear of pesti-
lential disease, no prospect of war and
no domestic discord that should affect
business.
To be sure, there has been a little
furry in financial fields which has
caused a stringency in the money
market. But the gold and silver lin
ings of the clouds that have swept
over the financial horizon, are begin
ming to show their effulgence and
what pessimists were wont to look
upon as an approaching disastrous
hurricane has proved to be nothing
but a small storm Even the slight
Inconvenience it has caused to the
honest people of the land, and their
numbers are legion, should be haileo
with thankfulness by one and all, for
it will mean the accomplishment or
much needed banking and currency
reforms.
Better than that, it will mean the
much needed cleansing of the flesh
pots OF finance in the big money CEN
ters of the nation, particularly in
Wall street.
So taken all in all, there was never
a time in the history of this country
when fhe multitude has had more
reason to rejoice and sing peans or
Certainly this is a glorious country
and a glorious age to live in with glor-
ious and golden opportunities at every

When a woman really loves a man
she will shoot him If occasion arises.
1t is always a help to parents when
their children's bachelor uncles and
spinster aunts are sentimental about
Christmas.
The man who tells tiresome stories
usually has a big strong voice, lots of
determination, and gets to the end In
spite of interruptions.
Women can resist most things, but
offer them a bargain in an enameled
pan or kettle and they will buy If the
kitchen is stacked with such things.
This is the difference between a mans
and a woman's vacations: a man spends
and a woman in doing what others
want her to do.
When a man marries a woman for
her money, the people applaud when
she ties it so tight he can't touch it,
and then can't reconcile such sense
with the folly she showed in marrying
him.

people will overlook her Alterations and

railroads and the people. One needs the
other and peace should reign between
them. 1t Is understood that some OF

rates on the basis of two cents mile
for the contiguous states which have
two cent fares and that they will be put
in effect as soon as possible and as soon
as the necessary permission can be OBJ

TWILIGHT OF THANKSGIVING,

What have we then for thankfulness?
Our fields are bleak and bare
The wind goes signing of distress
The snow scuds through the air:
A withered leaf clings to the tree
Where once the droning of the bee
Lulled you and me.
We fain would see the grass outspread
"A carpet1ng of green,
would see far white clouds overhead
With blue sky set between
Would see the ruby of the rose
Change as the day sank to its close
To richer CLOVIS.
And We would see the orchard blooms
instead or Singing snow.
WOulo eaten the SenSuous perfumes
me winds toss to and fro
would see the emerald again
or leaves that laughed along the lane
In sun and rain
The path that leads along the brook
NOW has no lowered fringe
Inc gate before the forest nook
SWayS on rusted hinge,
AND long day dreams we built upon
Inc dew-pearled splendor of the dawn
Are lost and gone
But mere are hearth and cheering blaze
And walls that fold us in,
ana we may dream again the days,
The glad days that have been.
Bar winter fast without the door,
Until the rare days gone before
Have come once more

the two worlds, in July of this year,
that the scientists at Flagstaff made the
