Thanksgiving.
Whatever may lie the decision of
tlie allied (towers upon the proposi
tion looking toward the carving of
Turkey, millions of people in the
homes of this great and glorious
Republic will to-day feast upon
turkey and cranberry sauce. In so
doing they will observe a custom
which many years ago came to regard
Thanksgiving and feasting as synony
mous terms. While feasting may by
many be regarded as the principal
feature of the day. the recommenda
tions of tlie Chief Executive of tlie
Nation will tie observed throughout
I the length and breadth of tlie land.
And with all due deference to the
beniticent example of those who to
day attend religious services held at
the various churches we will here take
occasion to observe that the number
of people who are sincerely thankful
for the blessings which they enjoy is
not c nfined to those who attend
the eh I 'ch services. For this reason
the degree of thankfulness possessed
b_. a man cannot Ire gauged by his at
titude toward the church services any
better than it can by the quantity et
turkey eaten by him. It is meet
that all should in some manner mani
fest to the Giver of all Good their
thankfulness for and due apprecia
tion of the blessings which they
receive.
Congress convenes in Washington
on Monday next in what is called the
long session. Mr. Thomas B. Reed
of Maine will Im* nominated for the

will be elected. Upon him devolves
the appointment of the committees
of the House with whom is practically
lotlged the power to shape legislation.
There is no abler man in public life
to-day than Mr. Reed, but it is
questionable whether with all his
acumen and knowledge of men he can
so manage as to strengthen his
chances for the presidential nomina
tion. The position of speaker is
second only to that of president in
political importance and is equally
subjected to public scrutiny and
partisan criticism. Mr. Reed jxissesses
decision and firmness unexcelled in
the conception of legislation as well
is in the methods of its enactment.
Tlie Reed Rules adopted under his
leadership six years ago against the
most violent opposition, are to-day
a< cepted in all the legislative bodies
<•’ the country, and their author lias
r •< elved universal endorsement as the
leading reformer of legislative
methods of tire day.

How to Prevent Croup.
SOME RKADING THAT WILL PROVE INTER
ESTING TO YOUNG MOTHERS. HOW TO GUARD
AGAINST THE DISEASE.
Croup is a terror to young mothers and
to post them concerning the cause, first
symptoms and treatment is the object so
this item. Tlie origin of croup is a com
mon cold. Children who are subject to
take cold very easily and croup is almost
sure to follow. The first symptom is
hoarseness; this is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough, which is easily
recognized and will never be forgotten by
one who has heard it. The time to act
is when the child List becomes hoarse.
If Chamberlain’sCougi Remedy is freely
given all tendency to croup will soon dis
appear. Even aftc the croupy cough
has developed it will prevent the attack.
There is no danger in giving this remedy
for it contains nothing injurious. For

Obituary.
Died, In this city. Nov. 24, 1895, of
pneumonia. Malinda, wife of the late
Benjamin L. Timberlake.
Mrs. Timlrerlake was born in
New York in 1828, and came with her
husband to Beloit, Wis.. at an early
day. Iu 1850 they came to St. Croix
count} and settled on what is now
known as the Timlrerlake farm in
Kinnickinnic.
Mrs. Timlrerlake uncomplainingly
endured the hardships of a new'
country life, and by her quiet
Christian life endeared herself to her
many acquaintances.
Of her family only four children
survive her. Mrs. Roswell Beard-ley
of Ashby, Minn., Mrs. E. 11. Churchill
of Kinnickinnic, Mrs. John Currier
and her son Frank of this city.
“At length, then, the tendercst of mothers is
gone !
Her smiles, her love accent, can glad thee no
more;
That <>u< echeerful chamber is silent and lone.
Ami for thee a child's precious duties are o’er.
Her welcome at morning, her blessing at
night.
No longer the crown of thy comforts can lie;
And tin* friend seen and loved since thine
eyes flist saw light
Thou canst ne’er see again! thou art or
phaned like me.
Oh, change ! from which nature must shrink
over powered
Till faith shall the anguish remove and con
demn:
For the change to those blest ones who “die
in tlie Lord,”
Though to us it brings sorrow, gives glory to
them.”

from neuralgia for two days,- not being
able to sleep or hardly keep still, when
Mr. Holden, the merchant there, sent
her a bottle of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm

the pain had left her within two hours,
and that the bottle of Pain Balm was
worth $5.00 if it could not be had for less.

The Northwest Passage.
Through all the centuries since the
nations of Europe became masters of
the world's commerce, up to the
fifteenth century, the trade with the
rich countries of the Orient had been
conducted chiefly by long, tedious,
and often dangerous journeys over
land. Navigator* conceived the idea
that by sailing west from European
shores, India would be reached by an
all-sea route. This was the motive of
Columbus’ voyage in 1492, when he
found his path blocked by the new
world. Foiled in this liope, the
geographers calculated from what
they thought they knew, that a
“Northwest Passage," by the arctic
regions, existed, which would be prac
ticable for commerce. In the attempt
to find this passage, the most celebrat
ed (and unfortunate) expedition was
that of Sir John Franklin, in 1845. in
which every man perished. The
"passage" was finally discovered in
1856, by Capt. McClure, who sailed
from Behring Sea to Baffin’s Bay, but
is totally impracticable as a com
mercial route. The true "North
west Passage" to the Orient now, is
by the great railroads of Northwest
ern America. Which bring the most
ancient and the newest peoples
together in close relations. Among
these is prominent the Burlington
Route, which may be said to occupy
the whole Central West and North
west, and is the quickest and best
means of communication, which its
people have. Your home agent can
sell you tickets by this route, and
give information, or you can address
W. J. C. Kenyon, Gen. Pass. Agent,
St. Paul, Minn., who will give prompt
attention to correspondence.
