We thank Him who has made and preserved us ns a nation. Who hid this continent from the eyes of the world until the time for its reve lation had come. Who summoned hither faithful men, believing in God and in men as the chil dren of God. Who preserved the brave colonists from famine, pestilence and sword; from internal dissensions and from for eign foes. Who united the hearts and minds of the various peoples in their demand for liberty and their declaration of inde pendence.

Something is the matter; they need readjustment and a different point of view. . The peevish, dissatisfied woman who allows herself to be unhappy because she does not possess as much of this world’s goods as her neighbor, and then says she has nothing to be thankful for, has only to go into a city hospital and there she will see many reasons for her own thanksgiving. You mothers who have healthy chil dren, strong of body and straight of limb, may be thankful that your little ones are not compelled to inhabit home for incurable cripples. You fathers who have kind, gentle wives and well-bred children may be thankful that you are not married to a shrew, a woman who neglects her home, her children, and makes her husband’s life unbearable. Everv one of you can be thankful for the sunshine, the rain, the beauty of the hills and fields, the fruits of the earth that will appease your hunger, the clothing that keeps you warm, and above all, for the roof that covers you There are many, you know, that have not these blessings. The blind cannot see the sunshine or the beauties of nature; the poverty-stricken cannot enjoy the fruits of the earth and warm clothing; the homeless have no roof-tree to shel ter them, and the cripples cannot feel the softly falling rain. Are you, then, making the world about you more livable and lovable for some poor, disheartened mortal? Are you lightening his burden? Or are you in your selfishness making the world bleak and cold and inhospitable for those about yon? You can do something to help the un fortunate ones to be thankful. Per haps you cannot give a bountifully sup plied basket of provisions to your poor neighbor, but you can send her a plate of biscuits, or call upon her and cheer her up a bit. You can write a cheer ful letter to a shut-in or take her a bright bunch of posies or a basket of fruit. Flowers and fruit are always welcomed at the hospitals; but if you take them there yourself, adding the brightness of your presence, they will be doubly welcome. Do not let the day pass without per forming some act of kindness or char ity, lightening some burden or making the heart of some sad friend sing a joy ful melody. Be truly thankful for your own bless ings, and dispense a blessing wherever you may. Cured Boy of Croup. Nothing frightens a mother more than the loud, hoarse cough of croup. The labored breathing, strangling, choking and gasping for breath call for instant B< dion. Mrs. T.

The sentiment of gratitude is one that there is small risk of finding too much in evidence. It is not possible to grow from childhood to manhood or womanhood without implicit depen dence upon others, without incurring obligations nnd running deeply into debt—Urst of all to the God who made us, then to our parents who safeguarded our helpless infancy, then to the friends who assisted us on our way. It is im possible for us to make adequate re payment or return for all these benefits. What has been done for us in our creation and our sustenance, in all tho generous provision of love and of sympathy that surround us, is beyond reckoning or valuation—it is without money and without price. But wo may at leist from time to time express our gratiJ tude to the Giver of all good gifts. We may occasionally voice our thankfulnerg that wo are alive and that our plain duty licB before us, and that there is useful work to occupy our hearts and souls and senses. Above all, thero is the groat gift of love—tho love that trnnsiigurca life and makes it worth while to keep on trying to puzzle out the riddle of oxistence—the love that fills tho universe, and, according to Dante, “moves tho sun and th* other stars.” for The Man of Sfyle who respeefs his purse To the wide-awake American, Style is a matter of personal pride.
