Benediction Itev. T. A. Iluniphreys The sermon by Rev. Humphreys, the now pastor of the Plymouth Congre gational church was. In part, as fol lows: This day conies to us burdened with many significant suggestions, hallowed recollections and most precious llcslngs. It conveys our mind to that company of brave, God-fearing men and women who landed on the uninviting Plymouth Rock on that blenk December day In lftJ), home less and protect louloss, ready to llvn or die for the cause of tiulh and right eousness, giving thtiuki to their Heaven ly Father for his goodness and kindness, and when the eaith bad yielded to them a rich harvest, they appointed a. day on which to unite la rendering thanks to the Giver of all good things: and from our Pilgrim Fathers to mir time not ono year has passed without tlu observance In our land of a, public and national Thanksgiving day for the pmpose ot grateful acknowledgement tp the linker and Ruler of the universe. The flrvt presidential proclamation of our national Thanksgiving day was made by George Washington on Jan. 1, 1TW, After the first harvest of the colonists at Plymouth, Governor Bradford sent out four men fowling, that they "might af ter a more special manner rejoice to gether." Two years later, when a wkhed for rain came after a drought, the gov ernor appointed a day of public thanks giving, which was devoutly observed. Let its mention some of the things for which wo should be thankful. We ought to thank God that wo occupy so high a position In the twilo of being, having been made In tho Imago of God, and ut ter his likeness, Wo know not how many orders of sentient beings thero nro who lilt higher ranks than wo In power and In telligence, but wo sustain u special rela tion to Him who sits upon the Throne of tho universe, and wo know also that there are multitudinous forms of being below us. Again, wo should bo thankful for tho ngo In which we live. At tho beginning of last century the world wai entirely rev. T. A. HUMPHREYS. REE! FREE! FREE! Fivo stamps given away with each bottle of Dufour's French Tar O. W. JENKINS. destitute of the present modes of rapid traveling, means or communication by telegraph and telephone, machines fur various Industrie", and educational ad vantages were unite meagre. Again, wo should be thankful for tho country In which wo live. We should be thankful that, when our country In its industrial and social relations seemed al most swamped, clouds overhanging all classes with perplexity, and want staring men and women, our noble, Joshua-like, farsighted President Roosevelt created a commission to examine candidly the troubles between capital and labor, and to adjust these as far as possible, not only for the present, but also for all the future. Our president has also spoken words of advice to both parties to consider tho Interests of the third party, the general public, and ho has given expression to the thought that tho trend of tho modem spirit is stronger and stronger towards peace, not war; and that we havo the kindliest feelings towards nil weaker and stronger nations: and he has held boforo our gaze the grand requisites of a. good citizen. God's mathematics is the progress of the nges. God's science Is the relation of Individuals and nations to ono another and to tho Supremo flood the summum bonum. God's philosophy is tho triumph of right. God's music is tho history of love. Rut thero Is Ono to whom we should loolc for .success beyond every Theodore. It Is Jesus. The axlci of the wheels of prosperity revolve In tho nallprints of tho Hero of Golgotha. Let us praise the Lord on this great Thanksgiving day and through our life for his khd caro and vigilant protection, for all physical and spiritual blessings, for our bcnovolcnt, educational and relig ious Institutions, and for tho subllmo pob Blbllltlos which nro within our reach for ourselves and ns a blessing to others.

Davis, of New York city, a vocalist, and Prof. Walkenshaw, :i violinist, delight ed the congregation with a number of selections. Rev. R. J. Reese, of tho Puritan Congregational church, read the Scriptural lesson, after which Rev. R. W. Clymer, delivered an excellent sermon on tho subject, "God a Bounti ful Provider." He said, in part: If a man's peculiarities and idiosynera cies can bo satisfied on tho earth they can be satisfied under tho protecting folds of tho American flag in this kingdom, whore the people Is king, except In Penn sylvania, It Is a great big thing to bo an American, but, beloved, it takes a great big heart and a great big brain to till tho bill. When I was a boy, well meaning, hut Infldelic, men argued that tho population of tho world was so great that soon wo would havo to havo a war to kill off some, so wo could raise enough to supply them. I have passed through tho tor ments of boll wondering whether I would bo one of the ones killed. Such nontenso! It Is almost beyond human computation to tell how many scientifically farmed nnd irrigated Amoiica could sustain. Thank God for tho boundless lesouices of our' homo country. "But," says tho objector, "things are not equalized, I cannot bo thankful until I get my share." If you cannot bo thank ful until you get your share, thank God you don't have it. Both you and I have received many times what we havo de served. A man cannot be thankful for what he thinks ho has earned by his own right arm. This Is tho country of homes. In England, with a population of SI.COOKU every inch of tho soil Is owned by 3i,C0o. In America. Tho New York Central railroad has n.Ojfl employe--, and H.OW stockholders. Thero aro tlnee things in connection with the recent strike that enter vitally Into our enjoyment of Thanksgiving. The iirs-t is the loyalty of our boldlers wtio nro union men. ISraus woio made before tho militia was called out that they wou'd simply stack their arms and refuse to serve. Men who talk like that don't un derstand tho gonlus of America. The second thing Is the part tho women took hi the affair. If I had been tho husband of a woman who so far forgot her womanhood as to bicker with a neighbor woman because her husband worked while her own did not. or march on tho street, or stand and yell, I'd havo given her her choice of tluco things: First, go in tho house and be a woman; second, hunt another husband, or, third, I would go to work, thinking mora of womanhood's honor than of tho union. Tho third noteworthy tiling, was tho way In which tho newspapers as- a ruin found fault with President Hacr's state ment that Christian men wero trustees of Providence. If only the yellow journala had taken It up wo could pass it by. To criticize, as somo otherwise conservative papers did, is infidelity. Morally, wo havo need to be thankful, Comparo today with tho tlmo Christ was born; compare tho church of today with tho church at Corinth, possibly the heal of Now Testament churches. It was tho churcli at Jerusalem, upon which tho spirit of Pentecost fell, that resolved It self Into a mob and demanded tho blood of the Apostlo Paul, Pour hundred years ngo a common sight was tho head of somo prominent man on a piko along London streoto, Today at tho samo place a man would bo arrested for whipping his horse, Comparo England's treatment of tho lloers with Crumwoll's treatment of tho Iloynlists. Thero Is but ono thing In which tho present things cannot outshlno nil that havo been. That Ih when wo cntupaio I ho strenuous religious life of puritan fathers with much of tho milk nnd wain typo of today. Our church mmpctltlnu has developed a typo of tellglous dumps, beggars running from chinch to church to gut the cheapest, and ho usually sots It, A hymn was sung by tho congrega tion, lifter which Rov.
