C Thl discourse of Dr. Talmage is a national congratulation over the achievement of brain and hand during the prist twelve months. The text are: I Corinthian ix, 10, "He that ploweth hall plow in hope;" Isaiah xli. 7, "He that sniootheth with the hammer;" Judaea v, 14, "Xhcy that handle the pen of the writer." There i a table being spread across the top of the two great range of mountain which ridge this continent, a table which rc.chcs from the Atlantio (o the Pacific ea. It i the Thnnkngiving table of the nation. They will come from the East and th Went and the North and the South end lit at it. On it are smoking the products of all lands, birds of every aviary, cattle from every pasture, fish from every lake, feathered spoil from every farm. The fruit basket bend down under the product plucked from the peach fields of Maryland, the apple or chards of Western New York, the ornnge groves of Florida, the vineyards of Ohio and the nuts thrashed from New England' woods. The bread is white from the wheat field of Illinois and Michigan, the banqueters are adorned with California gold, and the tohlo is agleam with Nevada silver, and the feast is warmed with the fire grates heaped up with Pennsylvania cool. The hall is spread with carpets from Lowell mills, and at night the lirrhta will flash from bronzed brackets of Phila delphia manufacture. Welcome, Thanksgiving Pay! Whatever we may think of New England theology, we all like New England Thanksgiving Day. What means the steady rush to the depots and the long rail trains darting their lanterns along the tracks of the Bos ton end Lowell, the Georgia Central, the Chicago Great Western, the St. Paul and Duluth and the Southern railway? Ask the happy group in the New England farm house; ask the villagers whose song of praise in the morning will come over the Berkshire hills; ask all the plantations of the Nouth which have adopted the New England custom of setting apart a day of thanksgiving. Oh, it i a great day of na tional festivity! Clap your handSjVe peo ple, and shout aloud for joy I Through the organ pipes let there come down the thunder of a nation's rejoicing! Blow the cornet! Wave the palm branches! "Oh, that men would praise the Lord for His goodness and for His wonderful works to the children of men!" for two years and a half this nation has been celebrating the triumph of sword and gun and battery. We have sung martial airs and cheered returning heroes and sounded the requiem for the slain in bat tle. Methinks it will be a healthful change if on this year's Thanksgiving in church and homestead we celebrate the victories of the plow, the hammer nnd the pen, for nothing was done at Santiago or Manila that was of more importance than that which in the last year has berje done in farmer's field and mechanic's shop and author's study by those who never wore an epaulet or shot a Spaniard or went a hundred miles from their own doorsill. Come up, farmers and mechanics and liter ary men and get your dues as far as I can pay them. Things have marvelously changed. Time was when the stern edict of governments forbade religious assemblages. Those who dared to be so unloyal to their king as to acknowledge loyalty to the Head of the universe were punished. Churches aw fully silent in worship suddenly heard their doors swung open, and down upon the church aisle a score of muskets thumped as the leaders bade them "Ground arms!" This custom of having the fathers, the husbands, the sons and brothers at the entrance qf the pew is a custom which came down from olden time, when it was absolutely necessary that the father or brother should sit ut the end of the church pew fully armed to defend the helpless portion of the family. But now howj changed! Severe penalties are threatened against any one who shall interrupt relig ious services, and annually, at the com mand of the highest official in the United States, we gather together for thanksgiv ing and holy worship. To-day 1 would stir your souls to joyful thanksgiving while I speak of the mercies of God and in unconventional way recount the conquests of the plow, tne hammer and the pen. Most of the implements of husbandry have been superseded by modern inven tions, but the plow has never lost its reign. It has furrowed its way through all the ages. Its victories have been waved by the barley of Palestine, the wheat of Persia, the flax of Germany, the ricentalks of China, the rich grasses of Italy. It has turned up the mammoth of Siberia, the mastadon of Egypt and the pine groves of Thessulv. Its iron foot hath marched where Moses wrote and Homer sang and Aristotle taught and Alexander mounted bis war charger. It hath wrung its colter on Norwegian wilds and ripped out the stumps of the American forest, pushing its way through the savannahs of toe Car olina and trembling in the grasp of the New Hampshire yeomanry. American civilization hath kept step with the rattle of its clevises, and on its beam hath rid' den thrift and national plenty. I do not wonder that the Japanese and the Chinese and the Phoenicians so par ticularly extolled husbandry or that Cin cinnati went from the consulship to the plow or that Noah was a farmer before he became a shipbuilder or that Elisha was in the field plowing with twelve yoke of oxen when the mantle fell on him or that the Egyptians in their paganism wor shiped the ox as a tiller of their lands. To get an appreciation of what the American plow has accomplished I take you into the western wilderness. Here in the dene forest I find a collection of In dian wigwam. With belts of wampum the men lar.i)y sit on the kin of deer, smoking their feathered calumets, or, driv en forth by hunger, I track their mocca ins far away as they make the forest echoes crazy with their wild halloo or fish in the waters of the still lake. Now tribes challenge and council fires blaze, and war whoops ring, and chiefs lift the toma hawks for battle. After awhile wagon from the Atlantio coast dome to those forests. By day trees are felled, and by night bonfires keep off the wolves. Log cabins rise, and the great trees begin to throw their branches in the path of the conquering white man. Farms are cleared. Stumps, the monuments of slain forests, crumble and are burned. Villages appear, with smiths at the bellows, masons on the wall, carpenters on the housetop. Churches rise in honor of tho Great Spirit whom the red men ignorantly worship Steamers on the lake convey merchandise to her wharf and carry eat tho uncounted bush els that have come to the market. Bring hither wreaths of wheat and crowns of rve, and let tho mills and the machinery of barn and field ur ite their voices to cel ebrate the triumph, for the wildernes hath retreated and the plow hath con quered. ' , Within our time the Presidential Cabin et ha adited a Secretaryship of Agricul ture. Societies are constantly being es tablished for the education of the plow, journals devoted to this department are circulated through, all the country. Farm ers through such aulture have learned the attributes of soils uud found out that al most every field has its peculiar prefer ences. Lands have their choice as to which product they will bear. Marshy lowlands touched by the plow rise and wring out their wet locks in the trenches. Islands born down on the coast of Peru and Bolivia are transported to our fields, and make our vegetation leap. Highway by this plow um changed from begy loughs into roads like the Roman Appiun way. Fields go through bloodless revolu tions until there tho farmhouse stands. In summer honey suckles clamber over th trellises. On one side there stands a gar deu, which is only a farm condensed. On the other side there is a stretch of meadow luud with thick grass, and as the wind breathes over it it looks like the deep green ocean waves. There goes a brook, tarrying long in its windings, as if loath to leave the spot where trie reeds sing, nnd the cattle .turn! at noonday under the liadow of the weeping willows. In win ter the sled comes ihi ut,li the ciiuUliiig snow with huge los from tho wood-, and the barn floor quakes under the thuinpiiius of the fl.ul or the nVuicuing bus i! the ihianhiiig uii-'lmiu. Horses stand benealli mow poie nenmng unier losos or hay and whinny to the well filled ont bins. Comfort laughs nt the wind rattling the ashes and clicking the icicles from the eaves. Praise God for the srent harvests that have been reaped this Inst year! Some of them injured by drought or insects or freshet were not as bountiful as usual, others far in excess of what have ever be fore been gathered, while higher prices will help make up for any decreased sup ply. Sure sign of agricultural prosperity we have in the fact that cattle and horses and sheep and swine and all farm animals have during the last two years increased in value. ' Twenty million swine slaught ered this last year, and yet so many hogs left. If the ancient in their festivals present ed their rejoicings before Ceres, the god dess of corn and tillage, shall we neglect to rejoice in the presence of the great God now? From Atlantic to Pacific let the American nation celebrate the victories of the plow. I come next to speak of tho conquests of the American hammer. Its iron arm has fought its way down from tho begin ning to the present. Under its swing the city of Enoch rose, and the foundry of Tubal Cain resounded, and thrfcark floated on th deluge. At its clang ancient tern- files spread their magnificence and char ots rushed out fit for the battle. Its iron fist smote the marble of Paros, and it rose in sculptured Minervas and struck tho Pentclican mines until from them a Par thenon was reared whiter than a palace of ice and pure as an angel's dream. Damascus and Jerusalem and Rome and Venice and Paris and London and Phila delphia and New York and Washington are but the long protracted echoes of the hammer. Under the hammer everywhere dwellings hove gone up, ornate and luxu rious. School houses, lyceums, hospitals nnd asylums have added additional glory to the enterprise as well as the bene ficence of the American pec pie. Vast public works have been construct ed, bridges have been built ever rivers and tunnels dug under mountains and churches of matchless beauty have gone up for Him who had not where to lay His head, and the old theory is exploded that because Christ was born in a manger wo must always worship Him in a barn. Edwnrd Eggleston and Will Carleton and Mark Twain nnd John Kcndrick Bangs and Marion Harland nnd Margaret Gangster nnd Stockton and Churchill nnd Hopkinson Smith and Irving Hnehellcr and Julia Ward Howe and Amelia Bnrr and Brander Matthews nnd Thomas Nelson Page and Elizabeth Stuart Phelps and William Dean Howells and a score of oth ers, some of them fixed stars nnd some meteors. As the pen has advanced our colleges nnd universities nnd observatories have followed the waving of its plume. Our lit frature is of two kinds that on foot nnd that on the wing. By the former I mean khe firm nnd substantial works which will go down through the centuries. When, on the other hand, I speak of literature on the wing, I mean the newspapers of the land. They fly swiftly and vanish, but leave permanent results upon the public hiind. They fall noiselessly as a snow flake, but with the strength of an Alpine glacier. . This unparalleled multiplication of intel ligence will either make or break us. Every morning and evening our telegraph offices, with huge wire rakes, gather up the news of the nntion nnd of the whole world, and men write to some purpose When they make a pen out of a thunder bolt. It needs great energy and decision and perseverance for a man to be ignorant in this country to-day. It seems to me that it requires more effort for him to keep out knowledge than to let it in. The mail 'hags at the smallest postoffices disgorgo large packages of intelligence for the peo ple. Academies with maps, globes and philosophic apparatus have been taking the places of those institutions where thir ty or forty years ago you were put to the torture. Men selected for their qualifica tions are intrusted with the education of our youth instead of those teachers who formerly with a drover's shout and goad compelled the young generations un the hill of science: Happy childhood! What with broken tops and torn kites and the itrial of losing the best marble and stump ing your foot against a stone and some body sticking a pin into you to see wheth er you will jump and examination day, with four or five wise men looking over their spectacles to see if vou can parse the first page in Young's "Night Thoughts" until verbs and conjunctions and partici ples and prepositions get into a grand riot. How things have marvelously changed! We used to cry because wo had to go to school. Now children cry if they cannot co. Many of them can intelligently dis cuss political topics long before they have seen a ballot box or, teased by some poetic muse, can compose articles for the news papers. Philosophy and astronomy and chemistry have been so improved that he must be a genius at dullness who knows nothing about them. On one shelf of a poor man's library is more practical knowledge than in the 400,- 000 volumes of ancient Alexandria, and education is possible for the most indigent, and no legislature or congress for the last fifty years has assembled which has not had it in rail splitters and farmers and drover or men who have been accustomed to toiling with the hand nnd the foot. Lift up your eyes, O nation of God' right hand, at the glorious prospects! Build larger your barns for the harvests; dig deeper the vats for the spoil of the vineyards; enlurge the warehouses for the merchandise; multiply galleries of art for the nictures and statues. Advance, O na tion of God' right hand, but remember that national weaith, if unsanctified, is sumptuous waste, is moral ruin, is magnifi cent woe, is splendid rottenness, is gilded death! Woe to us for the wine vnts if drunkenness wallows in thein! Woe to us for the harvests if greed sickles them! Woe to us for the merchandise if avarice swallows it! Woe to us for the cities if misrule walks them! Woe 'to the land if God defying crime debauches it! Our only lafety is iu more Bibles, more churches, more free schools, more good men and tnore good women, more consecrated print ing presses, more of the glorious gospel of Die Son of God, which will yet extirpate 111 wrongs and introduce all blessedness. But the preachers on Thanksgiving norning will not detain with long cr inons their hearers from the home group. The housekeepers will be angry if the meats do not arrive until the viands are ;old. Set the chairs to the table the easy lhairs for grandfather and grandmother, 1 they be still alive; the high chair for ;he youngest, hut not the least. Then put jut vour bund to take the full cup of ;hanksgiving. Lift it and bring it toward I'our lips, vour hands trembling with cino .ion. and if tho chalice shall overflow nnd trickle a few drops on the white cloth thnt tovers the table do not be disturbed, but let it suggest to you the words of the !nlinist and lend you thankfully to say, 'My cup ruunnth over!" ICopyrlirtit, IM, 1. hlopwli. 1 What AmhUulty Cost a Lawyer, A good atory Illustrates the danger that lies In ambiguously worded tele graph dispatches. The wife of a New York city lawyer of large means and adequate knowledge of the value of the dollar bad gone to an auction sale of laces, of which she ia Inordinately fond, and bad aeen some pieces which took her fancy. The price was $2,000, and she hesitated to make the pur chase without asking her husband whether ehe should do so. She did uud received this reply; "No price too high," Madame promptly bought the laces, and so struck was she by the generosity, not to say gallantry, of her huuband that she added to her storo many hundred dollars' worth besides. When her husband returned that eve ning she learned that the dispatch he bad- sent read thus: "No. Price too high."

"You young tcrouiidcl I" exclaimed the unwilling fatlicr-in-law, when the eloping couple presented themselves for parental forgiveness and place to livo. "You conscienceless scampi You stole my daughter away and disregarded all the conventionalities of society. And yet you ask forgiveness I" "oh old scroundrel, what did you do?" retorted the new son-in-law. "What did you do? You let us elope, and did not pursue us on horseback with a shot gun. You have shattered all the tra ditions of elopements and have blasted all the romance of the, affair for us. We might as well have got married to the rumty-tum-tum of the church organ, and let you pay the hill. You hacn't a spark of appreciation in your make-up!" Crushed by the merited criticism, the fathcr-in-law invited them in to supper, for they were rather hungry. Baltimore American, v Curious Railroad Lines. The world's strangest railways are to be found principally in India, America, Switzerland and Ireland. The loup at "Agony Point," on the Darjceling Rail way, India, is thought to be the sharpest curve in the world, while Mount Rigi, in Switzerland, has no fewer than three railways to its summit. When the Jung frau Railway is completed it will be the most remarkable one in the world. Its highest station will be 13,668 feet above sea level. Of American Railways the strangest is at Cripple Creek, where the great timber trestle over which the train has to pass in crossing a chasm is so curved that the line is made to tip in wardly, and the sensation is terrible to the traveler on a fast train. Sure Cure for Fatigue. A stalwart Boston laborer, in seeking work from a farmer, gave the assurance that he never got tired. The man was acordingly engaged ; but when the farm er went to the field where the man had been put to work he found him lazily lying on his back beneath a tree. "Hallo!" cried the farmer, in surprise. "I thought you told me you never got tired ?" "No more I don't !" replied the una bashed laborer. "But I precious soon should be. master, if I didn't do a jolly lot of resting!" r' Miss Lillie Degenkolbe, Treasurer South End Society of Christian Endeavor, 3 1 4 1 Michigan Ave., Chicago, 111., Cured by Lydia E.

Th5ciific production m . of a laxative of known value and distinctive action is rapidly growing in public favor, along with the many other material improvements of the age. The many who &rfc wfcll informed must understand quite clearly, that in order to meet the above conditions a laxative should be wholly free from every objectionable quality or substance, with its component parts simple and wholesome 'and it should act pleasantly and gently without disturbing the natural functions in any way. The laxative which fulfils most perfectly the requirements, in the highest degree, is Syrup of flejs The sale of millions of bottles annually foi many years past, and the universal satisfaction which it has given confirm the claim we make, that it possesses the qualities which commend it to public favor. r,l "a 11 Worth Knowing Admit.
