NATION HAS JOINED IN UNITED PRAYER For the first time in history the people of this nation today unite in prayer for peace among foreign na tions In response to proclamation by the president. On seven other occasions, however. the people have answered a call from the chief executive to observe & spe cial day of prayer. The first five days of prayer designated by procla mation were for peace, the last two in commemoration of the dead Abra ham Lincoln and James Garfield. These days of prayer were all ob served between ITss and 1881. John Adams designated May 9, 1798, a day of prayer. Before that. In colo nial days, when crops were- bountiful there were public prayers of thanks giving' and. again, when times were hard, prayers for relief. rirst Thanksgiving Day of Prayer. The first Thanksgiving day was in reality a day for fasting and prayer. In 1623 teh colonist's prayer for rain to refresh their crops which were! fast withering under sustained drought, and while .the prayer was In progress rain felL During . the Revolution a day of prayer was recommended by congress. President Adams proclaimed May 9, 1798, as a day of prayer because of France's war upon this country. Presi ' dent James Madison issued a similar proclamation for January 12, 1815, on account of the trouble between this country and Algiers. When the Civil war broke out. Presi dent Lincoln proclaimed the last Thurs day of September, 1861, as a day of prayer. He had been waited on by a joint committee of the senate and house asking that the people of this nation humble themselves and pray for peace. Prayer Says Daring' Rebellion. Two years later, April 30, 1863, he again proclaimed a day of prayer, be cause the rebellion had not been sub dued and the whole country was in great distress. Again, August 1, 1884, he . asked the people of the United States to observe a day of prayer for the end of the war, and then, when President Lincoln had been killed by the assassin, John Wilkes Booth, Pres ident Johnson called for a day of prayer and reflection on the life of the THE SPIRIT OF THE DAY X CAUSE OF PEACE great man.

The cut at right shows the construction of this wonderful heater, which furnishes three times the heat with one-third the fuel used by the ordinary direct-draft stove. When automatic direct damper is closed, the heat and flame will pass into right and left down flue into bottom and up back flue, making every inch of the surface of .the stove radiate heat, giving it three times the capacity of other heaters. The flame and heat passing into bottom flue make the cast bottom radiate heat to warm the floor. This heater is made to burn either coal or wood, and has large swing feed cover on top for wood, and illuminated swing mica feed door for coal. . Another special feature is the automatic damper, which is opened by either top feed door or front feed door, thus preventing the smoke and gases from escaping into the room. The fire box is fitted with duplex grates for coal or wood. rHie fire linings have hot-blast tubes, which discharge hot air into the fire, consigning the gases, thereby making every possible saving in fuel. t. , . The design is Colonial, and all the nickel detachable, makingjit easy to keep clean.
