The failure of one crop in a given locality may mean comparative scarcity for that section, but another crop yields abundantly and is iu high demand for some distant market. 5 -r If there is no revelry in abundance' this year, there will be no ; rotting In the BTTound for want of consumers. If it is -hard to be face to face "with ''the'-failure fact, all the flying they did was , when 0f crops, it is also hard, after all the labor iOn. days the natives bad not so much to be thankful for as we have in these times of wireless teit'grapny and politics, fish less fishballs, jokeless jokes, Pasteur bed tea biscuits and other luxuries that w ould have been regarded as the result t of witchcraft at that time, It: is the opinion of many deep and profound thinkers that the only thing the natives of the early colonial period had to be thankful for was that they bad been able to escape the tomahawk- of the aborigine that was frequently projected they flew from the hawk (the tomahawk) with might and main to get through the humdrum r front door in time to slam it again at the Romanesque proboscis of the hostile red man. . ' - : : And what had they to be thankful for in the way of a roof garden when the starry summer nights were upon them and the cabbage leaf had withered In the broad . brimmed bat? -There was no such resort, with up to date mnsic and 'songs, with jugglers and acrobats, domestic and imported, to while away. the. moonlight hours, and there was no long refreshing summer drink to . take the cobwebs of care out of their throats. They hadn't bicycles from, which to be thrown in fa nnt ontinO in thfl interests of artifieial baldness. And it is likewise believed that vor of the surgeon, and there was not a this thankfulness and all round i grati- trolley to whirl them along at the highest tude that filled the hearts of our worthy - rate of speed allowed by law, and, witb ancestors were the combination that led out all these things which we have to-, to the appointment of a certain day for, day, they "didn't "'bare -ft ".general day "of a general feasting and thanksgiving.

"An overflowing harvest gives no joy to the producer if be cannot even find hungry mouths " to feed gratis. This superabundant yield, answering to overproduction in 'the manu facturing, world, has often happened since vast areas have been devoted to raising perishable fruits and vegetables. Starvation and famine have next to no meaning in America, and for that the masses annually t render thanks even In years of local scarcity. The statement that there are no suffering poor in Amer ica like those in most countries of the old world goes unchallenged. . Even the failures of 'society may still eat, drink and be merry on all proper occasions.

There hi a great deal of difference between feeling thankful for simply being alive and grateful; for that condition of joy that takes possession of and camps out on one's isout when one suddenly gathers an unlooked , for and UD banked on legacy. ; - How could the early settler have been thankful for that which he bad not? The early settler had not an automobile to make his heart overflow with thanks, which it would have done, as the vehicle in question would have enabled him to glide gracefully away from the hand turkey strutted about without a penalty on his bead. . He could roost in peace without being plucked from the bough like a watermelon, and so he lived all unruffled, in the full knowledge of the fact that he "would always be likewise unraffled. And whenever be was eaten the diner was thankful and it was all he had and yet quite enough to be thank ful for. And when. we think of all the things that 'we have to be thankful for in the way of every kind of all round blessing we think it would take twenty or thirty Thanksgiving days, a year to enable us to properly offer up the thanks painted savage, who would have found , that blossom in our hearts, while we ad it more difficult to decorate him with an arrow when flitting awheel ; than when traveling afoot. And then the people of that : long ago historic time didn't have bildge whist to while away the evenings, and they didn't have tennis as a eport or. means of social advancement. They hadn't even dreamed of such a game as basebalL wlth all its attendant attractions, such as sliding for home on the eyeballs and the' utter demo lition of the umpire's facial, beauty.1" And their farms had no real value at the time, as they were only available for purposes of agriculture and not as golfi links, be cause golf had not yet been; imported from Scotland. And instead ef chasing the whistling gutta percha sphere across the twinkling green they chased the pi bald equine that was held, down on the earth securely by the plow, while they discoursed, dainty melodies on this flanks with a hickory stick that bad the desired effect of keeping him moving athwart the field in the pristine ragtime of that airy period. ; And how could the antique spinster with the corkscrew curls ' hare felt to very thankful while working at the spin ning wheel that was not a sewing ma chine and, besides, had no value whatever as an sesthetic ornament? How could sne nave been tnanarui when. she had. a noble trihntpr thn tr martrrod nmeu harpsichord instead of a grand piano anil dent was also a tribute to the living, who had to play on it with her hands Instead of playing it with a machine that is work ed by foot? And then she knew no such exhilaration and excitement as are sun plied by the department store that serve Spreads Like Wildfire.

A Silver Llafas;. No. tongue or pen can even faintly ex press the gloom into which the! people of the nation were plunged but two months ago.' No individual soul, however deep the personal grief, could measure the weight of sorrow provoked by the as sassin's bullet. One needed to witness and to share in the public grief in order to comprehend the emotions of a whole nation aroused and outraged. ; And yet. through the unspeakable darkness which pretailed when William McKinley was borne to his' tomb, there streamed a light of inextinguishable glory. In all the land there was not one discordant note; no voice was heard but the voice of devotion; no song uplifted but the anthem of woe. So strange and impressive was this uni versal mourning that the sad event, per haps more than any other in the last generation at least, gave cause for na tional thankfulness and congratulation. Stirred to their depths, the hearts of four score millions throbbed in unison. This THANKSGIVING RELISHES. A. Csmnce to Get Even.
