There Is no manner Of douhht that

be mentioned that the shipments Of

the corresponding period last year
ana the amount OF money received for
this produce Is much greater per unit
than last year II is to be assumed
that shipments from this time on
will be less active than heretofore

year. The banks OF Chicago have
been calling loans to grain men 10
some extent in order to force the pro
duce to market Consequently there
has been a decline In the price OF az
rieultural products. The amount Of
money that can be realized to tho

BURNED OUT FOR HOLIDAY.
Hartford Family Has Bad Fortune for
 Thanksgiving.

Hartford, Nov. 2S.-The overturning of a kerosene lamp in the rear tene- ment on the ground floor of No. 2Sl Windsor street caused a lively fire about 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon and for a half hour gave the men of No. ? all they wanted to handle with their chemicals.
 The tenement consists of three small rooms rented by Isaac Freedman in the rear of the grocery store of Max Rosenberg and Samuel Pevenrick, The latter uses one front door and when Freedman returned from work he says he lighted a lamp and went out of doors. When he returned the room was all ablaze. The lamp was on the floor instead Of on the dresser, where it had been placed. A small boy, see- ing the blaze, ran for a policeman, but in the meantime another small boy had rung in an alarm from box s2 and before the inhabitants of the district knew what it was all about the fire apparatus wat hitchlng to hydrants in the vicinity The two large chemica tanks from the auto wagon were emptied before the fire was out ant then everything in the three rooms was destroyed.

r. UR SAVIOR came down from
n heaven to shed light on that
| ~ ilIimitable world which lies
# beyond the tomb, and to re-
veal to us a new life which
u y begins with death. He has
made known to us our origin and des-
tiny and the means of attaining it.
He has brought not only light to our
intellects, but also peace to our hearts.
that peace which springs from the
knowledge Of the truth and the hope
of the eternal life.
He has given benediction to the
home by proclaiming the unity, sane
tity and the indissolubility of mar
riage. The wife is no longer the slave,
but the partner of her husband; she
Is no longer tenant at will, but the
mistress of her household; she is no
longer confronted by usurping rival,
but she is the undisputed queen OF the
domestic kingdom.
The aged poor are no longer at the
mercy of heartless masters. They are
not cast aside like a worn-out machine.
Their life is sacred like that Of in
fants, and they are comfortably pro-
vided for in institutions now spread
throughout Christendom.
The tender and compassionate spirit
of Christ has caused orphan asylums
and hospitals to spring up and bloom
in every land. There is no phase of
human misery and suffering that does
not find soIace and relief in these es-
Adjustments.
Human slavery has, at last, melted
away before the effulgent rays of the
gospel. To borrow with slight para
phrase, the words of a distinguished
writer, we can say with truth that
a slave stands redeemed, regenerated
and disenthralled as soon as he plants
his foot on the sacred soil Of Christen-
dom.
The gospel proclaims the dignity of
labor. Judged by its standard, every
honest employment is honorable, how
mental soever it may be.
Christianity has been peacemaker
to the nations. By her benefcent in
asanna sha hos made wars far less
frequent than they used 70 be under
pagan regime.
Let US not grow weary Of the salu-
tary restraints of Christian life. Let
us not cast wistful glances toward
Egypt, from whose bonds we have
been rescued, nor long for Its flesh
pots. Let us glory in our Christian
heritage; and, above all. let US not
be guilty Of the mockery Of leading
pagan lives while making profession
OF Christianity, recalling to mind what
the apostle said TO our gentle fore
fathers: "Ye we're once darkness; but
now light in the Lord. Walk aE the
children OF light"
