I've b'en countln up ray Dlessln's, I've be'n summln up my woes
Hut I ain't got th' conclusion Bum would nafrally suppose.
Why I quit a countin' troubles 'fore I had half a score,
While th' more I count my blessin's I keep flndin' more an' more.
There's been things that wa'n't exactly as I thought they'd ought V be,
And I've often growled at Trovldence fer not a pettin' me;
But I hadn't stopped t reckon what th' other side had be'n,
So I guisa It wa'n't correct, the way I calkcrlated then.
Fcr there's be'n a gift o sunshlno after every shower o' tears,
And I've found a load o laughter scattered all along th year3,
If th' thorns have pricked me sometimes, I've- good reasons to suppose
Love has hid 'em often from me 'neath the rapture of th rose.
So I'm goin' f still be thankful fer th' sunshine and th rain,
Fer th joy that's made me happy; fer th purgln' done by pain;
Fer th' love of little children; fer the friends thet have be'n true;
Fer th guidin' Hand that's led me ev'ry thrcat'nin' danger through.
I'm rejoicin' in th' mercy that can take my sins away,
In tlx' Love that gives me courage in th' thickest of the fray.
I am thankful fer th' goodness that from heaven follers me
O! how happy and how thankful I forever ought V be.
So Jest let us count our blessin's as we're Journeyln along,
Then we'll find Icfs time fcr growlin', and more fer mirth and song
When you lift your eyes t' heaven earthly shadows flee away
Let us learn this lovin" lesson as we keep Thanksgivin' Day.

In planning for our Thanksgiving
dinner, our minds naturally recur to
the time-honored dishes as roast tur
key, pumpkin pie. cranberry sauce,
baked Indian pudding, etc.. and our
feast never seems quite complete with
out them. It is not always possible,
however, to have turkey and some
do not care for it. Koast goose, chick
en, duck, pork, or beef may be substi
tuted for It. Another nice dish i.s
"mock duck," or pork tenderloins
baked with a bread dressing flavored
with herbs and onions. A menu that
Is seml-old-fashionod but usually liked
Is oyster soup, roast turkey with
mashed potatoes, turnips, baked
squash, pickles sweet and sour Jel
lies; a salad, minco and pumpkin pie;
fruit, nuts and coffee. It is well to
have some kind of light pudding for
those who do not tat pie. If oysters
cannot be procured, vegetable oysters
may be substituted. Cream tomato Is
a favorite kind of soup.
Cooking th Turkey.
To prepare the turkey for the oven,
pplit the skin at the back of the neck,
take out the neck bone, cut It close
to the body. Draw the crop and the
Intestines; clean and wash thorough
ly; fill both crop and stomach cavities
with stufiing. Turn the neck skin down
under the back; tie a string round and
bring the two ends of the string over
the wings and tie on the breast. When
ready to bake put the bird in the roast
ing pan; add a little water, small
quantities of chopped celery, carrots
and onions, two cloves and a small
bunch of parsley. Baste with the
gravy every fifteen mlnutps. Cook in
a modei ately hot oven for about two
and a half or three hours. The pres
sure of the thumb behind the second
Joint of the wing will readily break
the flesh when It Is sufficiently cooked.
Take off strings used In dressing be
fore serving on table. After the turkey
has been taken out add a little water
anu flour to gravy left In pan; boll for.
a few minutes; strain and remove all
grease that tomes to the top. Serve
in sauceboat.

There is danger that the relig'ous
significance of Tl.ank g vlr.g day miy
be forgotten. We so soon grow accus
tomed to our blessings that we accept
them as a part of the general order of
things and natura.ly b come ungrate-,
fulful by pure fo g tfulnes or lnd'f
ference. But as. a matter of fact mo3t
things which come to us ccme by the
pure favcr or courtly of others, and
how unworthy do we consider the ln
grate! writes Rev. S. T. Willis in the
New York Ledcr. He is one of the
most contemptlb'e characters with
which we meet. We consider him even
uncivil who does not spontaneously
say or write "Thank you" for the
favos and kindness Rhown him by his
fellow man. And this wo:d of grate
ful appreciation Is n.ver lot. Even
If It may seem to have no effect upon
him for whom It wis given. It will
not be lost upon those who hear, nor
will its lnfluenca be powerless upon
him who bestows It. A cultivation of
the tVanks-givirg hb t wi.l m ike to
gruw the seiue of appreciation, and
as a leu'.t our splrl s will be sweet
ened, our so -ls enlarged ar.d the whob
horizon of life beauiln-l. 'Ihen the
ordinary affairs of 1 fe will never more
be commonplace; our conditions and
surroundings will a'wa;s appear In a
fresh light. This Is significant. The
man whose family find in him a source
of endless delight and joy Is one who
i tUa r- "Tnmnn rplatlon-
uues neii ruii-
! ships and the diV.y Inercourse to be-
come coloiless an 1 arid. 5-uch a man
' kerps lcvt allv by cultivating the
' s ntiment of aff ct'on. Ills face, his
voice, h's dee J, makes the od course
'of life b.m aid tpa k with a full
current of tem'.erne s and feeling. S)
It is-again with ih g at artist who
eees the common in an uncommon
light and clothes the most ordinary
objects with b'.au y and charm. In
liko manner the n 1 ri us nature dis
closes Its presence by the unfailing
freshness of Its f. cling for all rela
' tions and seasons aa l customs and
days. It numbers I s blessings daily,
and dally does It express gratitude be
cause it feels d-. p y ar.d gl idly the
weight of its va-t indebtodn: s.s. The
years may differ g,atly in the com
forts and b e si rs they bring, but
God's unb.okui b n fic nc3 knows no
: divisions of tlm". His bounty is an
unbroken eternity. All years, how
' ever hard in the experiences they
bring, are years of blessedness; it
should be ouis to receive what God
sends ar.d to be constantly thankful, i
We should tlar.k him who has made J
us and prcse.ved U3 is a nation.
Who revealed this continent when
the proper time la 1 cdhip, and called'
to Its Eh. res faith ul and G dly men
who b lieve 1 in Him and In men a.i
His childrtn.
Who p fviv d t o national seeds j
planted in our c.lonle o and united
them for liberty and ind pendence.
Who made our young nation wise la
c:uns:l an.l strcng in defense.
Who paclfi d t e str.fes and eradi
cated the j-ah us cs that separated
our states and joined them anew In
one Indissoluble u: bn.
Who has given us the wisdom to es
tablish free seluo's and free churches,
and has given us bravo heaited and
clear headed men to sacrifice and toll
for the public virtue and peace.
Who has givin us an open Bible, a
risen Chilst, a l virg church and a
lede.emlng God.
Who crowneth this ye r of grace
with His bountiful go dnrss.
Oh, that men would praise the Lord
for Ills goodness and Ills wonderful
works to the children of men!

The Thitnkaglvlng Table
The table for the Thanksgiving din
ner should be set with the prettiest
glass, china and silver that the house
affords. Little Individual paper cup3
1 with frills of orange-colored tissue pa
per,, at each place would brighten the
table. These are filled with nuts and
candles. Name cards are decorated
with a bow of orange ribbon or somo
j appropriate decoration as a pumpkin,
I turkey, autumn scene, flower or leaf or
, some appropriate quotation sketched In
pen and ink or painted In water color.
, These oX course for a family reunion
are not necessary, but they serve to
make the table decorations more pleas
', lng. Gourds hollowed out make pretty
' receptacles for nuts. Tressed ferns and
autumn leaves also add much to the
table decorations.
Bliatrrlnna Murdrri,
Two murders near Kvnnsvllle, Ind.,
Tuesday, are. a mystery batllln solu
tion. The fact that both or the vic
tims were women, tint both wcr
killed in the same manner und evi
dently by the tame person adds to the
mystery. The lody of Mrs. itoorgi.i
lialley was found near tne city nesmc
a public highway. There were linger
marks on the throat. 1 he nc u a
broken. Tho supposition is that the
woman was choked to death by some
one in a buggy and then when she
fell out her neck was broken. There
were evidences of the luly bavin?
been dragged some distance and
thrown lutn n illteh.. A mile OUtslde
the city, but In an opposite direction.
tne uotly or .Miss i.ena Kenncr wa
rttsenrrrfvl lv Ronrcliors. Her throat
also bore finger marks, showing the
manner of her death to be similar to
that of Mrs. Kalley. Neither woman
was known to have an enemy and
nothing Is known to link the two of
them in any affair likely to furnish
an excuse for one man to attack both.
In April, 1S0S. Mrs. Mary Stork
went buggy riding with n stranger.
The next morning her dead body was
found in a ditch. The man who took
her life was never discovered. Mrs.
Stork was a prominent young woman
and a great sensation followed h6r
death.
In April of the following year Miss
Nora Klfer. of L'lbcrfeld. Ind.. while
visiting here, suddenly disappeared.
Her body was found weighed down
In a creek the following month. Joseph
D. Keith, a wealthy farmer, will bt
hanged next Fiiiay for the crime.
Soliley n Poor Miin,
The Sampson partisans In the nary
will have some ghoulish satisfaction
even though the Inquiry court vindi
cates Schley, In knowing that they
forced him to ppeiul all of the $20,000
he saved In his i." years' service In
the navy. The navy department hat
figured out that Hear Admiral Samp,
son, who did not part lei pate In the
battle of Santiago, is entitled to $25,
717 41 In prize money and liounties for
the destroyed vessels, while Itenr Ad
miral Schley, whose ship bore the
brunt of the battle, Is entitled to only
$1S 12.
