Thanksgiving and "Thanksllving."
To sing a s«ug of iliauka to God 1*
Inspiring; to live n life of service with
your brother Is Improving the world.
Were we less Idealist* we should view
with fine satisfaction the sight o f men
and women difTcrlug hi their religious
beliefs, yet Joining together In thank
ing God. What we ploud for Is not a
yearly thanksgiving to God. but a daily
thanksllving with God Our aim Is not
conteut to wee men sit together once a
year. Iiaulslil ; prrjttd e and hatred,
but to tiebol 1 them at work together,
•very day In the year absolutely for
getting religious differences. Ignoring
theological doctrines and judging a
man by his conduct not prejudging
him liy his creed or race The cele
bration of thia day is highly to l>e com
mended. It stands ns the highest ex
pression of present day religious ob
servance, yet Its true worth Is only
achieved when we carry into the entire
yenr what the day symlioltzea to us nil.
Thanksgiving Is praiseworthy, but
thanksllving Is divine. I lev. Dr. Itu-

Cause For Gratitude.
I f ever we are tempted to sny that,
though others have much to he thank
ful for, our lives are bard and our
paths are thorny let us stop a minute
and set* by what standard we are
measuring «nr blessings. If we look
at a cripple plodding along with
crutches wo cannot help being thank
ful thnt we bnve feet which serve us
well and that we can walk and run
without a« much ns considering the
effort. When the ruin beat- «11 the

the bouse 1 ..{ shelters us. When the

A hecdles* toiler in the ranks
And overeager fame to wia.
But now I oiler up my thanks
For mercies that have been bestowed
Upon me, cveo (bough I whined.
And now I pause beside the road
To recognize that thou art kind.
When darkness seemed to shut me ia
And on me rained the blows of fate
And when it seemed I couldn't wia
I was a thing oi rage and bate.
The day was dark; the path was long;
Life’s purpose i misuoderetood.
Today I aee that I was wrong
And recognize that tboa art good.
Because I journeyeJ day by day
And knew not where and couldn't zee
I wailed that I had lost my way
Aud cried. -Tbou hast deserted me*”
Wh.n grief was knocking at my heart
And tears were streaming from my
eyes
I only knew I f.lt the smart.
But now I know that tbou art wise.
Lord, on the road today I pause
In gratitude 10 thee to pray.
For. blinded by the world's applause,
I see I should have gone astray.
I thank thee h r thy watchful care
Through conflict and the hours of rest.
My consolation in despair
Ucncefonb shall be — tbou knoweth

New York Sun
IHTOUY tells us that In the ear
ly days In some of the colonies
there was a p u r.fn h a l hatred
o f Christinas, and when a day
o f thanks was set apart such “ super
stitious meats’’ as baron o f beef, boar’s
head, plum pudding end mince pie, all
redolent of memories of the ancient
feast, were eschewed In favor o f tur
key and pumpkin pie. The colonists
were *0 pleased to celebrate Thanks
giving In this fashion of feasting, ea-
- peclally after they were compelled to
I listen to a long sermon, that they be
gan to appoint frequent Thanksgiving
days—sometimes for reason of victory
; over the Indians, then for the arrival
of a supply ship or a bountiful bar-
| vest, says the Washington Star.
Usually the day set occurred in Au-
I gust, especially If it was In thanks for
the harvest Finally, in 1084, Massa-
] • busetts declared It to be an annual
and legal holiday, and all the New
England colonies followed her exam
ple. In those days Thanksgiving In
i Its religious character was rather curi
ous. On one side was the minister
whose duty seemed to be to predict tbe
most direful things, and hla sermons
| consisted of warning to the people of
the awful things to come, while, on
the other hand, the people were told
to rejoice and give thanks on that
day, even though the pit yawned oa
the day before and the day to come.
The whole thing was a paradox, for
the wives were compelled to stay home
and prepare the dinner, yet they were
soundly berated by the ministers for
being absent.
Many of tbe sermons aimed at the
preference for the flesh pots over spir
itual things, but after the discourse
the preacher frequently went to dine
with one o f his parishioners and en
joyed the dinner prepared by the mis
tress of the house, whose absence he
bad commented on In the pulpit an
hour before.
Tbe sermoni seldom
touched on fasting, hot they Included
the political topics of the day, wheth-
; er local, state or national. On one oc
casion at a Thanksgiving service a
Federalist pastor in Connecticut pray
ed. "And, O Lord, endow President
Jefferson with a goodly portion o f thy
grace, for thou. O Lord, knowest that
be needs It!”
“ The festal trait of the day at that
time seems to hare been entirely In
i the bands o f tbe women of the fam
ily. who for days before worked quiet
ly to prepare a feast, and the deep re
ligious gloom which pervaded the
household during those years was In a
measure lightened by the sunlight of
tbe well cooked Thanksgiving dinner.
A well fattened turkey at one end of
the table and chicken pie at the other
were the principal articles on the menu
• f tbe well to do man's Thanksgiving
feast. The middle clnss had the chick
en pie and a small turkey, while the
poor feasted on the pie alone. But
every table, rich or poor, had a fowl
o f some kind and usually a pitcher of
cider to wash It down. A pie made of
pigeons, too, was a favorite Thanks
giving dish. Strangers were made wel
come, aud not even a tminp was turn
ed away.
Unfortunately, this hospi
tality seems to have been based ou a
superstitious fear o i bad luck rather
than a genuine case o f charity.
