Thanksgiving 1s the next holiday nd we approach that restful festi- val with gladness. Polities Will not’ interfere with the open-heartednes: or liberal-handedness of that popular feast dag. The farmers in this part of the State are fattening their turkeys and wovdering who will win The Bulle tw's bonuses when the birds are weighed in on the 22d inst.; and the annual recipients of the big birds are whetting their appetites and sharp- ening their lead pencils for the reg- ular words of thanks. We are all going to w:e something. to be thankful for, whether the polit- fcal events are pleasing or not. As an exchange says: Whichever way the election goes, the governmemkt at Washington will still live and the mtry will have been “ruined” only rhetorically in the Pickwickian sense. Where the democrats have been vietoriods they will eat their turkey | with an appetite whetted by long ab- stinence from the sweets of vietory. Where the republicans have won they | win the cumulative influence of | continued good fortune.

Ah, those Arah steeds! How fully one can sympathize with the poet when he cried: ‘My beautiful, my beautiful, that standest meekly by, with proudly arched and glossy neck and dark and fiery eye!' It is a far ery from that tender sentiment to the passionat: demand of King Richard: ‘A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!’ “What sort of a freak are you, any- how? Do you really want a job, or are vou giving free lessons in’elocu- tion?” ‘I Lave explained my demand.

It js true that his claim to immortailty rests upon one poem—but what a poem! Yet he Is not ‘alone iy this distinction. Ttie poet Wolfe, who wrote “The Sir John Moore; . produced -nothing else of consequence, ~Collins wrote sundry ecologues -which were merit- orious, but his fame rests upon the noble poem beginning. “How sleep the brave who sink to rest by all their country’s wishes blest.” 3 many others who like the angels of wind and of fire, ‘sang but one short hymn and expired with the song's ir- resietible stress’ asthe poet phrases it, or who, like Israel—" “For heaven's saks, are you wound up for eisht days? Can you wash bug- gles? Do you know the front end of a harness?”” “Sir, T can dn anything that man has done. Although created for high- er spheres, I have done much manual labor. ‘None better knew to guide the plow or wicld the rattling flail, as the poet says. ‘T wrought fuil well in the ‘burning sun and smoked my pipe when the day was done, to quote a humbler bard, whose songs, however unpreten- tious, have touched many hearts. I cannot say that I am fond of labor re- quiring muscular exertion. As Father Ryan says, ‘My feet are weary and my hands are tired, my soul distress- ed; and I desire what I have long de- sired, rest—only rest!’ ‘But one cannot rest in this world. A man may claim to be captain of his soul, as the post says, but he is not captain of his stomach. That organ makes imperative denands which must be obeved, and so I must find worl¢ of some sort. If not in the sanc- tuary, then in the stable. For what says the poet? “Tricked by vile insid- ioua chances, beaten down by circum- stances—— " “You taka the biscuit—also the ‘bakery,” said the citizen. “Try your hand at washing that bugsy.’—Chi- cago News.

Then, rising to a hizher plane, they should Tearn that the personality, the ego or which the body is the instru- ment, is made up of three distinct parts—the intellect, which apprehends, thinks, learns, imagines and reasons; the sensibility, .which feels, loves, hates, enjoys and suffers, and the will, which directs, or which should direct. Evidently the most important of these and the one which, if it assumes the right attitude and asserts and main- & the control which it is clearly intended it should exercise, will domi- nate and fead the rest is the will. Anyone without it or who fails to use it, is rudderless. and will surely drift hither and thither a hopeless derelict or be driven a shattered wreck upon some of the many rocks and quick- sands which border the great ocean we sail upon—Cincinnati Enquirer. Luxury and Li Dr. Mary Noble, the missionary from India, speaks of “an appalling sense of luxury” which impressed her as she | arrived in the United States from the Orient. She felt it, she says, when she stepped on an American steamship in England when she entered a Pull- man car at New York and she has observed it all along the line of life in the United States and comments rath- er_chidingly upon it. What Dr. Noble is reproving us for, of course, is the clement of needless luxury, the lack of ecomomy in our living. She certainly would not wish her peovle to restrict their lines of lite to the limit of doing without those comforts and even luxuries they have earned by diligence and toil and which form the essential groundwork of mod- ern_life today. We in America un- doubtedly live better than do the peo- ple in India, or any of the oriental countries, and, of course, the contrast must be striking to one just coming from those lands. But our present standards of living are the logical re- gan when the foundation of this re- lis of a constant progress that be- | public was laid, and, while there may be ample room’ for economy .and fru- gality,"there is no such thing as retro- gression; we are not going back to { the standards which our ancestors | lived by.—Omaha Bee. Forms of Lying. A provoking form of lie is the ome that cannot be denled, ‘as when it is aid of a man that he would not steal The victim can only in silence before the soft im- peachment, knowing at the same time that its promiscuous circulation does not enhance his reputation for homes- ty. It is in a somewhat similar vein that Mr. Dana wrote of General Han- cock as being a good man, weighing 270 pounds. What could one answer to that? Though true in a way, it savors more of what Mr. Chesterton terms “ the faint damns that praise” | than of profound appreciation. | The man who “lies like a gentleman” is hard to determine. The sense in which it is most generally used. how- ever, seems almost to justify the cyn- ical ‘assertion that society depends on appearances rather than on realitic and that the unpardonable offense consists not in doing a wrong thing, but in being found out. The fatuous liar and the cheerful liar we have always with us, tiresome but harmless, with their vain imagin- ings, reaching all the way from fish stories to the latest cute savings of little Baby Bright. It is only neces- sary to leave them alone and they will hang themselves with the rope of their own weaving. However convincing the original statement, it always breaks down under the burden of de- tail which the hapless prevaricator piles upon it.—Washington Post. Health of the Army. The general health of the army was fairly satisfactory during the year. There was a somewhat alarming in- crease in venereal diseases, and the admission and death rate for tuber- culosis were high—hlgher, in fact, than in any armies, except those of the Spanish, French and Dutch. In this connection better ventilation of bar- racks is urged. Overcrowded guard- houses are still ' common, and _that “sanitary abomination,” the overhead, or doubie-decked, bunk, is still in use at Forts Totten and Adams. Twenty- three thousand five hundred and twen- ty recruits were medically examined, and 142.69 per 1,000 rejected as unfif for_service.
