Rich comforts to provide.

To Him this blest Thanksgiving Day.
With swelling song and glad acclaim
We come from fields and marts
To magnify His holy name
With humble, thankful hearts.

With love that ne’er departs.

lead the study of Raphael; the first
book of the “Revised Art Series,”
containing a biographical sketch of the
great Artist, together with a collection
of his world-famed pictures with intro-
duction and interpretation. This
beautiful study is one of intense in-
terest, a most restful diversion from
the regular routine of study. The
subjects of his * pictures are nearly all
of a cheerful nature. He is remem-
bered above all else as a painter of
Madonnas. From the beginning to
the end of his career the sweet mys-
tery of motherhood never ceased to
fascinate him. Hardly second in deli-
cate loveliness, are the virgin saints of
Raphael, the Catherine, the Cecilia,
the Magdalene, etc., are abiding ideals
in our dreams of lair women.

Mr. Editor:—Allow me to speak a
few words in favor of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy. I suffered for three
years with the bronchitiir'and could not
sleep at nights. I tried several doctors
and various patent medicines, but could
get nothing to give me relief until my
wife got a bottle of this valuable medi-
cine, which has completely relieved me.

A good attendance. The meeting
opened with a discussion concerning a
Christmas entertainment; a decision
will ba reached next week. The
Library has been moved to Dr.
Payne’s office where the wants will be
promptly attended to on the regular
day as usual. During last year under
Mrs. Adamson’s administration, fifty
dollars was contributed to the Library
fund by the following gentleman:
Messrs. D. W. Frazer, S. A. Lillard,
Chas. Smith, J A. Adamson, S P-
Smith, T. B. Yarbrough, W. T. Sim-
mon, A. 1). Rogers, Lein Hoyle and
Harry May, Jr. each of whom have
been duly elected honorary members
of the Club and will have free access
to the Library for five years. They
have our sincere thanks.
Mrs. Halcomb as leader in the
literature lesson gave pleasure and
satisfaction. The principal topics
and ma<n points brought out were,
Central characteristics of the literature
of the period from 1830 to 1870.
The character and work of Thos.
Carlyle. The precocity and maturity
of Thos. DeQuincy. The strength
and weakness of Chas. Dickens.
Mrs. Bonner finished the lesson on
Raphael, taking up the study of one
or two of the Vatican frescoes and
cartoons. The Madonna of the Chair,
which is like a picture from real life is
in strong contrast with the Sis'ine
Madonna which is the most spiritual of
all Raphael’s creations. In his deE-
neation of Angeles the ideal is again
repeated. The Paul of the Cecilia
Altar piece, and the Sixtus of the
Sistine Madonna, and the Aeneas of
the Borgo fresocoe show, in three
ages, what is best and most distinctive
in ideal manhood. The Transfigure
tion was the last painting produced
by the great Artist. Mrs. Yarbrough
delighted us with a- description of
some of the pictures in this collection
seen by her while abroad. Mrs. Yar-
brough will be with us for a while as a
proxy; we hope to enlist her a per-
manent member. F. B.

If the Schley court of inquiry does

Pierpont Morgan's western railroad
trust is not calculated to make repub-
lican voters, as the responsibility of
that party for trusts is known to all
men of inteligence.
Senator Procter, who has a reputa-
tion as a grabber of good things, is

the original McKinley man.
