Wyandotte, Mich.-" For tho last four years 1 have doctored off and on without help. I have had pains every month so bad that I would nearly double up. Some times I could not sweep a room with out stopping to rest, and everything I ato upset my stomach. Three years ago I lost a child and suffered bo badly that I was out of my head at times. My bowels did not move for days and I could not eat without suffering. The doctor could not help me and one day I told my husband that I could not stand tho pain any longer and sent' him to the drug-store to get me a bottle of Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound and threw the doctor's medicine away. After taking three bottles of Vegetable Com pouna and using two bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Sanative Wash I cbuld do my own housework. If it had not been for your medicine I don't know where I -would be today and I am never without a bottlo of it in the house.

Thanksgiving Hymn Well Liked at Birth But Now Forgotten The first presidential Tlmnksglvlng proclamation was that of President Washington In 1T89 on the occasion of tho adoption of the Constitution, the day, curiously enough, being No vember "3 the date of celebration of 3803. This latter was the real fore runner of our national Thanksgiving day. Occasional and special times of thanksgiving had often been appoint ed by different Presidents, but the year 18G3, famous for Its decisive national victories, marked also the beginning of the annual series of Thanksgiving days. The great victories of Gettysburg and Vicksburg were really the catlso of Lincoln's proclamation, nnd his cx nniplo has been followed by all his successors until the annual festival has become one of our national Insti tutions. The proclamation of 1803 was re markable as the first of a series, ex tending now over fifty years. It was also notlcenble because It was the oc casion of a thanksgiving hymn by the famous Reverend Doctor Muhlenburg of St. Luke's hospltnl, New York city, lie Is well known ns the author of the familiar- hymn, "I Would Not Live Al way," and a poet of no snrnll repute. Mr. 'Lincoln's glowing words met his tye and struck a responsive thord In his heart. A noble Thanksgiving hymn was the result, a hymn which at the time was often sung, but Is now comparatively forgotten. It wns pub lished with appropriate music, nnd even yet Is suitable for use on similar occasions. The hymn contains nine stanzas, with chorus, and tnkes up In order tho various causes for tlmnksglvlng men tioned In Mr. Lincoln's proclamation. Tho original title was "Give Thanks All Ye People," the first verse being as follows: Olve thanks, all ye people, give thanks to tho Lord, Alleluias of freedom with Joyful accord; Let the Bast and tho West, North and South roll along, Bea, mountain and prairie, one thanks giving song. Chorus. Olve thanks, all ye people, give thanks to the Lord, Alleluias of freedom, with Joyful accord. As tho hymn wns suggested by Mr. Lincoln's cnll upon the nation to give THE DAY OF THANKS LOADF.D with all the good the living cost allow the home bo&rdi of the day of thankj will give full wimeis to the fact that the patsing yean do not permit to grow flaccid the long-eilablished custom of die land. Thanltigiving Day has yet full flavor of the day when first observed upon the bleak coast where the Pilgrim fathers closed their voyage adventurous. The turkey and the pumpkin pie, cranberries and accessories will all feature as in the days gone by. And amid the fumes so redolent of cheer and peace and the sweet concord of home, will seem to fashion fonh the features dear of the ones who at that board in other years were grouped. Memory that never lays aside attachments of the past will vivify the recollections of the ones whose passing meant contraction of the group, but clieer will be no less sincere because the paeSos note is struck in token of moitaliry that time insures. From coast to coast, amid the mountains of the nearby range, amid the Rockies lifting high their peaks, where placid lie the meadows by the brook, and in the tropic Southlands and die coast that borders the Pacific will be found the units of the nation's strength and grace, the circles of the home with sweel content is savor for the simple heartfelt feasts. In many places strange and 'mid the scenes of desolation and of solitude the Jay and dinner will be given thought. We ThanK Thee, Lord! 1 For all thy ministries For morning mist and gently falling dew$ For summer rains, for winter ice and snow, For whispering wind and purifying storm; For the reft clouds that show the tender blue For the forKed flash and long, tumultuous roll; For mighty rains that wash the dim earth clean; For the sweet promise of the seven-fold bow; For the soft sunshine and the still, calm night; For dimpled laughter of soft summer seas; For latticed splendor of the sea-borne moon; For gleaming sands and granite-frontled cliffs; For flying spume and waves that whip the shies. For rushing gale and for the great, glad calm; For Might so mighty and for Love so true, -With equal mind, We thanh. thee. Lord!" John Oxenham thanks, Doctor Muhlenburg spoke of It as "The President's Hymn," but would not permanently offer such a title without Mr. Lincoln's approval. Mr. Itobert H. Minturu, u prominent mem ber of Doctor Muhlenburg's' congr'eKit tlon, was greatly pleased with the poem, nnd sent n copy to the President, with whom be was personally acquaint ed, asking permission to nnme the hymn as the author desired. Mr. Lin coln telegraphed back : "So let It be." In .Tnly, 1805, Dr. Horace IJushnell published In "Hours nt Homo" an ar ticle attacking the well-known hymn, "America," as nn unworthy and really humiliating effusion as a political an them. Doctor KushneU thus refers to Doctor Muhlenburg's production: "The hymn nnd air that were given to the public by Doctor Muhlenhtirg a short time ago appear to havo missed the nccldent of being fairly born, nnd for that reason havo not succeeded. The want of good accident here Is fa (al, but the hymif has real me,rlt. It was too long and Included three or four verses thnt could have been omit ted with advantage. Otherwise It might have stuck and would have had a fair chance of success; for the mu sic, which we know only by the eye, nnd never heard In a public perform ance, appenred to have a look of prom ise." Tho next known reference to this hymn occurs In connection with the observance of tho fiftieth convocation of the University of Illinois, on No vember 20. 1013. The Alumni Quar terly says: "Touches of the unusuul were added to tho exercises by the singing of n forgotten hymn, dedicated to Lincoln In 1803 by Reverend Doctor Muhlenburg. The hymn, which had not previously been sung In public, wus discovered by Professor Dodge In a contemporary Issue of the New York Tribune."

Some Reasons Why the Farmer Should Keep Thanksgiving Just now, npnrt from our knowl edge of food secure, perhaps some of us feel It necessnry to fall back upon tho private reasons for thnnk- fulness. Kneli one has some hit of personnl well-being that can be brought out nnd rubbed up and admired just to keep our home circle happy this Tlmnksglvlng day. Each one knows their own cause for con tent, even where It Is so common plnce as not to be distinctly visible to others. Especially this year we mustn't lose sight of the personnl bright spots on account of their every-day character. A person was once visiting a friend whose home commanded a beautiful stretch of mountain scenery. It wns, in fact, a magnificent view. "What n wonderful outlook you have here," ho remarked to his host. "I am suro If I lived here I should spend most of my time viewing the landscape." "Why, I never thought of It that way," his host replied. "I never con sidered It anything remarkable. I have simply taken It as a mnlter of course." Thousands of people who live In the country enjoy a treasure which Is denied to millions of their fcllowmen the blessing of good, pure, out-of- door air, fragrant In spring and sum mer with perfume of (lowers or new mown hay, and in fall and winter la den with crisp, life-giving ozone. No one enjoys more blessings and treasures of this kind than tho man or woman on the farm. He or she. If Inclined to bo of a complaining na ture, Is apt to find fault that life on tho farm Is so hard and composed so largely of drudgery. Furthermore, "far away fields are always green," nnd the one on tho farm Imagines thnt In the city all must he case and contentment. Theso Imaginings, how ever, will not stand tho test of personal acquaintanceship with tho life that Is lived in the rltles. by bun' dreds of thousands of people. Farm work Is hard, but there are no easy berths In life. The average person on the farm lives better, enjoys better air to breathe, better water to drink, better fottt to eat, better conditions under which to work, better henlth than tho man or woman In corresponding cir cumstances In the city.

In pre-Beforniatlon days It was utilized as a parliament house, anil a brewery and a bakery were es tablished by the monks for their con venience within the sacred precincts. -London Tlt-Blls..
