UNION THANKSGIVING SERVICES THURSDAY

Services ol All the Churches Held at Christian Chuch—Most Sue- ' cessful of Years. The union Thanksgiving service held at the Christian church on Thursday night -was one ofe the most successful meetings of the kind, held for years. A large congregation of representative citizens filled the beautiful auditorium. Special vocal solos were rendered by Dr. Meyer and Miss Christine Hume, of Springfield, Ohio, sister of Mrs. Ross Dean. The choir also sang a beautiful Thanksgiving anthem. *

Rev. Winn had charge of the services. Rev. Parrett read the scripture lesson and Rev. Wright offered the prayer. The sermon was preached by Rev. Paul C. Curnick, D., D., upon the subject of »“Our National Blessings and Problems.” As an introduction, Dr. Curnick gave some reasons why the people of Rensselaer ought to be thankful, calling attention to our comfortable homes, our splendid schools, strong churches, and the public spirit of our citizens. After referring to local things Dr. Curnick took a wider view and spoke of the greatness, wealth, power and prosperity of our nation. Speaking of the problems we have to face, the attention of the congregation was called to the problems of emigration, the growth of our cities, the amassing of great wealth, the evils of intemperance and irreligion. In this wonderful age God will expect much of our nation and we must solve all our social, political, moral and religious problems from the. standpoint of true Christianity. We are a Christian nation with three hundred thousand churches and ministers, with church property worth hundreds of. millions of dollars, with Christiap schools and universities and with thirty-five million citizens who belong to the chuch and confess Jesus Christ as their redeemer. Our nation is moving forward to greater things. A better and brighter day is ahead of us. New ideas and nobler impulses are making of our people a greater and better nation. The United States stands before the whole world for universal peace, justice, equality and brotherhood.

The United States must lead the nations of the world in every line of moral and religious progress as well as in material growth and wealth. The United States must stand in the forefront in the advancement of man’s rights in physical comforts, in intelligence, in patriotism and in true religion. Old Glory, our beautiful flag, must wave over the bravest, truest and best type of humanity. God has been good to us as a that other nations do not enjoy, and it is out duty to use our blessings and powers to help bring all the nations of the world into the Kingodm of our King and Savior. The monthly meeting of the round table club will tike place at the residence of N. H. Warner this evening, the hostesses being Mrs. Warner, Mrs. F. B. Ham and Mrs. E. P. Honan.

Hints for Explorers.

At the recent anniversary meeting of the Royal Geographical Society, Major L. Darwin, the president, spoke of the meagerness of the territory now remaining to explorers. Besides the South Pole he said, there is Arabia, the map of which Is still largely composed of great blank spaces, and In Asia the bend of the Brahmaputra River, which flows in a remarkable course through the eastern and of the Himilaya range, Is drawn by guesswork in our atlases. But there are many places on the earth besides * those mentioned by Major Darwin yet" remaining to be explored. There are regions in South America, and how much do we know of what lies beyond the northern shores of North America? ’

The Bottled Button.

The button in a clear glass bottle, as is shown in the accompanying illustration, hangs attached by a thread to the cork, which is securely sealed at the top. How can you sever the thread so that the button falls to .he bottom without uncorking or breaking thd^bqttje?

You may think that this cannot be lone, but after you understand how to perform this trick you can have lots of fun trying it on your friends. Nothing is needed but a small lens to focus the rays ~bl the sun, which pass through the glass without heating it and burn the thread.

Ventilation as Frost Protection.

To the long list of the means heretofore proposed of protecting fields, orchards and vineyards against frost, a new one has recently been added by M. F. Chavernac. Writing In Progres agricole et viticole, he points out the fact that frosts are not feared when the wind .-Wows; he is thus led to suggest the creation of an artificial wind by the installation of electric fans among the plants to be protected. He considers this plan applicable chiefly to vineyards, but also possibly useful in orchards.

Dunfermline Abbey.

With the object of arresting the decay in the stonework of Dunfermline Abbey Church, says The London QlObe, port of . the building 1b being treated with silicate of soda. So pronounced was the erosion of many parts of the stonework that the heritors decided t* obtain the advice of Sir Rowland Anderson, who estimated that it would take a sum of nearly £IOOO to overcome the ravages of the decay. The present treatment is purely experimental, and before any further work of the kind is undertaken Sir Rowand Anderson will be asked to pay a visit •C Inspection.

"JUST A LOT OF WATER."

Boy Would Not Advise Taking, Trouble to 8e« Niagara. You think that perhaps so much talking about Niagara has kind of dulled the edge of your appreciation of it I don’t believe it The first man that saw it probably said: “What’s to hinder?** and didn’t stare at it very long. Nothing to eat there, and it looked spooky, and anyhow standing where it was so damp would probably give him rheumatism. It tells in the guide-book how a man in the early days went to see the place, but it Was a very cold night, and the tavern was comfortable, he sent a boy to see If It was worth while. The boy came'back and said It wasn’t much; just a lot of water falling, and it was colder than all get-out, and he wouldn’t advise it—Eugene Wood, in McClure’s Magazine.

Cruel Woman!

The tramp narrated to fellow wanderer the story of an intensely tragic occurrence. “Yus,” he said, “there was a bootiful lawn In front of the ouse, nicely kept, and It looked a real good chance for gettln’ a bit of honest symperthy. So I walks In, gets down on me ’ands and knees, and starts chewin’ the grass. Out comes as kind-ly-looking a lidy as I ever seed, and wanted to know wot I was doin’. Told her I ’adn’t ’ad grub fer weeks, and was obliged to eat grass. She looked very sympertheticly at me, and then said: ‘My pore man. Come around behind the house. The grass is longer there!'”

An Impossible Combination.

They were talking of the strange sights to be seen in a great city, and one man paid his tribute to New York. “I don’t believe one of you could think of any combination of stancescurred on the streeta there,’--he said. “I reckon I know of one that’s never occurred there,” said Hifam Fowle. ‘‘What’s that?” asked the other, curiously. “I guess,” said Hiram, slowly, “that you’ve never seen, nor ever Will see, a brass band going In one direction an’ the heft of the folks going the other.” —

The Mind’s Power.

“Zola,” said a psychologist, “once wrote in a lady’s album that his favorite amusement was writing and his favdrite wish a sudden death. Zola died suddenly. “And It Is a strange thing,” said the psychologist, “that those who prefer a sudden death usually have their preference gratified. It Is one of those things which go to show the mind’s mysterious power. Who knows but it Is this very desire for death, quick, painless, undreaded, which actually causes that happy kind of death? The mind, you know, has a power that we have only jist begun to understand.”

The Way of the Reformer.

Every new truth which affects life must pass through a period in which It Is hated before It attains the ‘period In which it is loved. WhaUpeople dread is change; what they wigh is to be let alone. They will kill the reforaer, If they can, and only those reformers who refuse to be killed, but who for years together go on savagely, patiently, tendprly reiterating the same message, in the end have their way, and are believed. —Rev. Elwood Worcester’s “The Emmanuel Movement" in the Century.

Why Pity the Farmer?

Mr. Mann of Geuda Springs loaded a large, fat hog Into his automobile and took It to market in Arkansas City, where he got a good price for the porker. It took him a mighty short time to get. the hog to town and get the cash for It A few minutes’ scrubbing fixed the auto so that it did not smell like a barnyard, and the hog probably enjoyed the ride. What’s the use holding meetings trying to improve conditions of farm life?—Witchite (Kan.) Eagle.

Jamaican Women Want Ballot

The latest part of the world to be reported *as making a commotion In favor of giving women the ballot is the British West Indies. In Jamaica the other day the legislature killed the bill enabling women to vote by the slenderest of margins. Instead of being discouraged, the women of Jamaica declare their willingness to fight a hundred years or longer for their rights.

Just Like Father's.

The other day I took my young nephew to the barber for the first time. I hated to see the soft little curls cut off, but his mother decided they must go. As the barber tied the towel under bis baby chin he remarked, “How do you want your hair cut, young man?” “Wis a little round hole in the top, like my favor's."

Mustard a Mouth Soap.

For chronic dark brown nauseous taste a pint of luke warm water and a teaspoonful each of salt and ground mustard —queen bee of household emetics. Cleansing, toning and antiseptic to coats pf the stomach. Ground mustard is good for hand and mouth soap.

He Doubted It.

"Your tickets were complimentary, were they not?” “Well," replied the man who had seen a painfully amateur entertainment, "I thought they wers until 1 aaw the.show."— I Tit-Bits.
