Thanksgiving The president lias issued his thanks giving proclamation for Thursday, Noy. 26, and he did not wait to see how the election had gone. After referri ng to our prosperity he makes the following broad and timely remarks : "For the very reason that in mater ial wellbeing we have thus abounded, we owe to the Almighty to show eqaul progress in morai and spiritual things. With a nation, as with the individuals who make up a nation, msterial well being is an indispensible foundation. But the foundation avails nothing by itself. That life is wasted and worse than wasted which is spent in piling heap on heap, those things which min ister merely to the pleasures of the body and to the power that rests only on wealth. Upon material wellbeing as a foun dation must be raised the structure of the lofty life of the spirit, if this na tion is properly to fulfill its great mis sion and accomDlish all we so ardently hone and desire. The things of the body are good, but best of all are the things of the soul, for in the nati on as in the individval, in the long run, it is character that counts. "Let us, therefore, as a people, set nnr- fai-os ahaolutelv aeainst wil and with broad charity, with friendliness onH crnod will toward all men. but with unflinching determination to smite down wrong, strive with all the strength that is given us for righteousness in public and private life.

HALLOWE'EN The boys of Albany are tntitled to credit for the most orderly Hallowe'en in the history of the city. While sev eral crowds were out little damage was done, just little pranks causing people hardly any trouble. Not even were the piles of ties that have stood for months on Second street touched. The city was full of jack'o'lanterns, carried by little ghosts, who visited their friends, spook like, frightening thorn to a standstill, a p'etty custom that is always appreciated. A neat hallowe'en party was a sur prise on Rev. Evans, but the surprise was the other way in the shape of a surgeon's skeleton which was well ma nipulated by the pastor himself. An interesting feature was a straw vote, and, though the republicans are said to have outnumbered the democrats the vote was 21 to 15 in favor of Bryan.

The store of Ohling & Taylor was .en tered last night by one of the rear high windows, which had been left unfast ened, and about $200 worth of razors and knives and $2 or $3 in money were taken. Every razor but one, was tak en, about one hundred, and only a few of a big case of knives, about twentv five. The money was taken from the drawer, and the following note left, scribbled on an envelope: " Please don't lock your money draw er, if you do the next time I come I will rip it out again." A little safe deposit vault, not locked, was opened and the little drawer torn out, but it was empty. It was evidently the work of an ama teur, not a professional, who would have taken more of the fine case of knives, News from Albany's Six Early Trains.

I took her to a doctor and he pronounced it to be eczema of a very bad form. He treated her, but! Instead of being checked, the disease spread. It showed itself on her back, and then quickly spread upwards until the whole ot her head was affected, and) all her hair had to be cut oft'. The pain she suffered was excruciating, and what with that and the heat and tin gling hor life was almost unbearable. She became run down in health, and at times was very feverish, languid, and drowsy, and occasionally she was de lirious. Her nerves were in such a low Btate that she could not bear to be lefb alone. In spite of the cold weather she would Insist on having her bedroom window open, and would lean out on the window-sill. She did not have a proper hour's sleep for many nights. The second doctor we tried afforded hor just as little relief as tho first, and I really do not know what we should have done if we had not read how Cuticura cured a similar case. I Pur chased Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint ment, and Cuticura Pills, and before tho Ointment was threo-quartere finished every trace of the disease was gone. It really seemed -like magic.
