Thanksgiving
Again we have with us the mo«t
memorable time of the year be-
sides Chr'Htmns. Everyone has of-
ten tumid the siuiy oj' I t o. :<i. of
Thanksgiving, how, after the first
harvest of the Pilgrims, they had a
groat dinner end {.ave thanks un-
to God for the fruits of their labors
in a material way. Since the first
Thanksgiving day, which was so
earnestly celebrated by these de-
vout men and women, it has been
a custom for Americans to com-
memorate and keep inviolate the
‘celebrating of Thanksgiving.
It would be an impossible task
for anyone to say just how his
neighbors should keep the day.
' For each individual is an entity, and
j sees life and its responsibilities ac-
-j cording to his or her past experi-
ences, so let’s be charitable and con-
siderate during this Thanksgiving
'day, and see if we can’t help some-
! a-sembled, and proclaim to the
world that wa arc thankful for all
of our material blessings, for the
great government under which we
live, for the educational system of
oar country and for the blessings of
health that makes the silver lining
to the darkest clouds, and radiates
sunshine and happiness in the souls
of the people. Yet above all we
should he thankful for the Christian
f 1 fh ' it Vo* it JHJSO lie for
the souls of men to live a life that
shall re’er end.

glimpse of 1
of the day.
We, as a people, both collectively
and individually, have so many
things to be thankful for. The very
atmosphere we breathe is ladened
with a thousand whisperings that
cheer the liver of men. Sweetest
j strains of music are borne as if on
(angel’s wings to millions of Amer-
| ican homes to cheer and bless.
S Surely we should have a day for
special thanks and on bended knees
with outstretched hands toward
high Heaven as individuals on mass

A cry in the night may be the

No cause for alarm if Cartoria is
handy ! 'Ihis pure vegetable prep-
aration brings quick comfort, and
can never do the slighte r harm.
Always keep a bottle in the house.
It is the safe and sensible thing
when children are ailing. Whether
it’s the stomach, or the little
bowels; colic or constipation; or
diarrhea. When tiny tongues aie
coated, or the breath is bad
Whenever there’s need of gentle
regulation. Children love the
taste of Castoria. and its mildness
makes it suitable for the tiniest
infant, and for frequent use
And a more liberal dose of
Castoria is always better for
growing children than some need-

Nine-tenths of all the disease* of the
American people can be traced directly
to constipation, doctors say. Constipa-
tion throws into iho system poisons
which taint and weaken every organ
of the body and make- them easy
victims for any germs which attack
them. Prevent constipation and you
will avoid nine-tenths of all diseases,
with their consequent pain and fi-
nancial losses. Heroine. the good old
vegetable cathartic will prevent con-
stipation in a natural, easy and
pleasant way. Get a bottle today from
