THANKSGIVING PSALM
A Rhythmical and Grateful Chant.

A teacher in Terre Haute public
school joins In the chorus:
Teaching is a business which re-
quires a great deal of brain and nerve
force. Unless this force is renewed as
fast as expended the teacher is ex-
hausted before the close OF the year.
Many resort TO stimulating tonics for
relief
For 3 years / struggled against al
most complete exhaustion, getting
what relief could from doctors ton
les. Then in the spring of 1903
had an attack OF la grippe and ma
laria which left me too weak to con-
pAue my work. Medicine failed to
me any relief, a change of eli
mate failed. | thought / should never
be able to go back in school again.
Il ate enough food (the ordinary
meats-white bread, vegetables, etc.,,
but was hungry after meals.
II happened at this time to read an
article giving the experience of an
other teacher who had been helped by
Grape-Nuts food. / decided TO try
Grape-Nuts and cream, as an expert
ment. 1t was delightful experience,
and continues so after a year and
a half of constant use.
First, / noticed that ] was not
hungry after meals.
In few days that tired feeling left
me, and / felt fresh and bright, in
stead OF dull and sleepy.
9In three months, more than my usual
strength returned, and had gained 10
pounds in weight.
Il finished the years work without
any kind of tonics-was not absent
from duty even half a day.
Am still in best OF health. with
all who know me wondering at the inn
provement.
- Il tell them all Try Grape-Nutsi' :"
~ me given by Postum Co, Battle
Creek, Mich. There's a reason"
Ever read the above letter. A new
one appears from time 90 time. They
nre genuine, true, and full Of human

THE LAST SCENE.

As the screams of the strUg-
CLING hundreds of the THAMES
passengers who had jumped into
the water multiplied, another
sound was heard. strong and
clear mt first. then fainter In the
distance. ID was the melody Of
the hymn. "Nearer. My God. TO
Thee" played by the string or
chestra In the dining saloon Of
dying ship. Some of those ON the
water started TO sing the words,
but grew silent ns they realized
that for the men who played the
music was sacrament soon To
he contaminated by death. The
siren strains Of the hymn and
the frantic cries Of the dying
blended in = symphony of sor-
rov--a never equaIIed requiem.

Major Butt is reported to have been
one of the heroes With an iron bar
in his hand he is said to have stood
at the steerage passage and defended
the women and children from the
maddened. stricken men in that part
of the ship.
Col Aston also is said TO have met
his fate bravely, after seeing his bride
to a lifeboat, drawing aside TO watch
other women step 10 safety and await.
| ing his own fate.
IL was only because the maximum
capacity of the steamers lifeboats
was barely third the complement OF
the ship and crew OF the ship that
hundreds of passengers had to be left
TO their fate
]. Bruce Ismay, managing director
of the White Star line, who was one
of the few prominent men who escap-
ed with their lives, is said by some
of the passengers TO have been one or
the first to get into the lifeboats, but
this is denied by Mr. Ismay himself.
Stunned by the immensely of the trag-
edy he had little TO say except that
he had heard of the investigation
which the United States senate had
begun, and to express his full will
ingness to assist thu senate commit
tee in its inquiry
First officer Murdoch on Bridge
When Steamer Struck.
The great liner Titanic was plung-
ing Sunday night through a compare
lively placid sea on the surface OK
which there was much mushy ice and
here and there q number Of compart-
lively harmless looking foes. The
night was clear and stars visible.
First Officer Murdoch was in charge
OF the bridge. The first intimation OF
the presence of the iceberg that he
received was from the lookout in
the crows nest. They were so close
on the berg at this moment that 1t
was practically impossible TO avoid
collision With it.
Speed of Boat Too Great.
The first officer did what other
startled and alert commanders had
done under similar circumstances,
that is, he made an effort by going
full speed ahead on his starboard pro-
peller. simultaneously throwing hts
helm over, to make a rapid turn and
clear the DGTS. he ndHeuNeI Was
not successful He succeeded in saw
ing his bows from crashing into the
iceberg, but nearly the entire length
OF the underbody of the great ship on
the starboard side was ripped
The speed of the Titanic, estimated
to be at least 81 knots, was so terrific
that the knife-like edge of the ice
berg's spur protruding under the sea
cut through her like can-openeT.
The shock was almost imperceptible
The first officer did not realize THAI
the great ship had received it's death
wound and none Of the passengers,
1t is believed, had the slightest sus-
picion that anything more than a
usual minor sea accident had hap
pened. Hundreds who had gone TO
their berths and were asleep were
unawakened by the vibration
Within a few minutes stewards and
other members of the crew were sent
round TO arouse the people. Some
utterly refused TO get up. The stew
ards had almost TO force the doors OF
the staterooms TO make the SOM
nolent appreciate their peril

into the corridor and headed toward
Peacock Alley.
The eel wriggled and squirmed, but
Nellie had n good hold. The cells tail

men with fixed posts about the bar
took just one look at Nellie. Some
man shrieked:
