N AN evenliiK of this week It occurred
to u man, slttliiK alone In an upper
room, that TlianksKlvliiB tiny was
rljiht at liniul. Ho he bestirred his
mind to consider those things for
which un American might sensibly
offer un gratitude to Clod.
lie reflected that across the Atlantic millions
of liuinun beings were at that very moment en
gaged in the dreadful task of killing other human
beings with every invention which Ingenuity and
skill could bring forth from the laboratories of
science and the workshops of industry.
In other lands nt that very moment tens of
thousands upon tens of thousands of helpless
folk feeble, aged men nnd women, mothers with
babes cringing convulsively to their breasts, little
children sobbing In terror, a vast army of the In
nocent and the anguished were enduring the ex
tremities or exposure, of hunger, and of despair
as they fled from their wasted farmsteads and
burning villages, escaping from the pitiless cruelty
of savage men only to lie down to suffer and die
under the pitiless skies of God In the winter and
the bitter storms.
At that very moment most dreadful war hid
half the world in the blackness of Its darkness
and from that horrid cloud rained destruction
upon unhappy Europe upon her ancient capltuls,
upon her pleasant cities, upon her villages, her
fields, her temples, her treasures of nrt, upon all
tho accumulations of a thousand years of genius,
of learning, of Industry, of skill and of patient
advancement of the happiness and the civilisation
of the race of man.
So he that considered all this wickedness that
was being done under the sun. (his drunken dnnco
of death and hell above the fetid corpses and tho
multitudinous graves, this awful nightmare of In
describable woe nnd wrath, snld In the bitterness
of lils heart that no God ruled over such a maniac
world and there was no thanksgiving due to the
Giver of Olfts that were not good, but everyone
altogether evil.
And when the man had made an end of his
thinking, he went and stood In a window nnd
looked out upon the evening, because It was fair
to see.
He saw In vision at that Instant the vastness
of the republic and tho multitude of the good and
happy folk who live under tho shelter of Its
strength. He reflected how brief a time had thus
'magnified tho workq of our pioneer fathers and
our pioneer mothers, thoso bravo and simple men
and women whoso names should never be men
tioned with anything but profound gratitude.
And to this American, glad with a great pride
In the deeds of his peoplo and the story of his
country, nnd grateful to tho Goodness which has
folded and sheltered his fathers and his folk,
tilted up his eyes to tho night, to tho quiet stars,
to the brooding Immensity above, aud said In his
heart:
"Thank God that I am an American l"
And, citizens, that 1b the ono outstanding,
splendid fact for which each ono of us should
soberly nnd most grutefully thank God on Thunks
giving duy this year.
Tho flneBt thing you possess or over can pos
css is Just your American citizenship. It Is
neither necessary nor becoming, on this day or
n any other day, to cheapen this birthright of
'"s by brag or spreadengle declamation.
Hut It is highly becoming on this Thanksgiving
day to feel a deep gratitude and a manly pride
lit this heritage.
Ami ho we llrmly hi-lleu you do feel.
We all hear It repeated that patriotism Is a
thing of the past; that our people have become
commercialized; that the masses have no deep
rooted loyalty to the country; that our rich men
put dollars above the obligations of their citizen-
ship; that our poor folk care little for the Ideals
of free government; that we Amerlrnns are de
cadent lu the virtues and valor which marked
our fathers.
That Is not true.
If there be any power lu the world which plots
war against us Americans and promises Itself vic
tory over us on the assumption of our decadence
In loyalty, that power will And how terrible was
Its mistake when our country calls her sons to
battle In her defense.
We have, It Is true, In our capacity as a col
lective people, left undone things that should
have been done and done things which should
have been left undone; and there Is more truth
than there should be In much thnt Is Jeerlngly
said by those who hate us.
We acknowledge that much of our politics of
fends common decency.
We see, here and there, painful evidence of cor
ruption among lawmakers and even among the
Judges, who should know only Justice and In
tegrity. We see rich men who do betray their country
and foul their hands and soil their souls with
most Infamous dealings and most shameful
protlts.
We see Americans who do put the dollar above
every consideration of right and duty, above the
claims of out' common humanity.
Hut while these things are true, It Is true also
that the heart and conscience of the American
peoplo, take them as a nation, are sound and
sane and wholesome.
The blood of our fathers still runs In tho veins
ili'dl srem tti slumber In the soft bed of long
enjoyed pence and security. But let war come
against the land and no man need doubt that that
spirit will spring up instnntly nwake.
We can rightfully be grateful that It has fallen
to our happy lot to live In this most wonderful
of all ages and to be citizens of this most won
derful of all the nations.
Let your hearts swell with just pride as you
contemplate your country, so august, so splendid,
so novvtusl In the earth.
Look upon your flag as It streams Its bright
folds yonder above your heads with proud and
happy eyes. Uemember how honorable Is Its
story, and forget not how many thousands of
brave and good men died that it might wave yon
der, the ensign of a free people.
Toll to your children the story of their fore
bears, of those men and women who, amid the
wilderness and forests thnt stood where now
stand mighty cities and stretch cultivated farms,
erected, with hardships and endurance nnd most
heroic faith and valor, the noble edifice of our
republican liberties.
Speak to them of Hunker Hill and Valley Forge
and Snratoga and Yorktown, and of the great
Declaration that most famous Chnrter of nu
mnn Freedom.
Tell them to thank God for their fathers' nnd
mothers' hardihood and cournge, for the wars
they fought, for the victories they won.
Tell them to salute their flag with high and
proud heart.s.
Tell them to thank God this Thanksgiving day
that they are Americans.
And then do you soberly, gratefully, proudly
thank God yourself that you are an Amerlcnn.
Oh, dear and mighty motherland, whnt better
gift or more to be desired could God give than to
be born and to die. strong Daughter of Liberty,
between thy shining feet ! From the Chicago 1

U.S. TROOPS MAY USE CACTUS FOR WATER I
In the pursuit of Villa nnd his bandits through
the arid regions of northern Mexico the United
States troops traversed a region whose only vege
tation Is tho barbed and forbidding cactus. To
any hut n cowboy or a trained plainsman of the
Southwest, Inhabitants themselves of tho "cactus
belt," this plant seemingly hns no moro value than
tho veriest weed, but It may well be that It may
prove of great value to the troops In tho absenco
of water, fodder, or even food for human beings.
In tho punitive expedition there are many cow
punchers of the "cactus belt" serving us scouts,
and 'in tho cowboy and tho Indian of tho South
west tho lowly cactus has Its greatest admirer, for
they know what a game struggle for life this plant
has to make against an unlnvcd desert soil. Even
their ponies and cattle aud the poor beasts of tho
desert know of these uses of the cactus for water
aud fodder, says tho New York Herald.
There are some thousand varieties of this mon
strous vegetable family, not counting tho H00 va
rieties of the agave, or century plant Incorrectly
Included by many In northern Mexico. The va
rieties of the yucca palm and nil other forms of
vegetation known to tho arid region have tho same
faculty of sucking up from tho soil every drop of
tho all too little moisture In It and storing It up In
their tough and leathory leaves and roots.
Of the many varieties perhaps the most remark
able Is that member ofvJhe family known to thoso
Behooled In desert craft aB tho "water barrel." This
plant Is shaped somewhat Hko a beer keg and Ib
about tho same size. Through all tho years of Its
growth It has been sopping up what moisture tho
famished earth contained nnd retaining It. It Is the
solo reliance of desert dwellers lu tlmo of drought,
and the troops, fur from water holes and with wa
ter scarce, may yet bo obliged to drink from It
Tho "water barrel" Is tapped by Bllclng off tho
top with a sword or machete and pounding tho
pulp until tho water contained In It wells up Into
the saucer thus formed. The pulp Itself Is pure
aud the water stored In It Is likewise puro and re
freshing. Not all the water-bearing cacti are as gracious to
famishing man, however, as tho "water barrel," for
most of them have protected themselves against
tho maraudings of those who would drink and Uvo
by Imparting a bitter taste to the water they con
tnln. The "peyoto" especially, which abounds In
tho plains and deserts of Arizona, has a trick of
discouraging depredations upon It, for Its plump
and Juicy pulp secretes a bitter and poisonous
Juice.
In the last dozen years scientists have Interested
themselves In tho study of the cactus for Its possi
bilities as food, fodder ami economic by-products.
Dr. Leon E. Lnndone, foremost In the study of this
desert plant, several years ago conducted extensive
experiments In Los Angeles to ascertain tho value
of the thornless cactus as an article of food for
human beings. In an effort to prove his conten
tion that It contains food properties sufllclcnt to
enable a man to work 18 hours n day, ho and hlB
two secretaries for two week lived on a dully diet
of the leaves and fruit of the cactus, the former
being served green or fried und the latter cither
raw or cooked. While tho "cactus squad" sur
vived tho experience und professor to have en
Joyed their novel diet, It is a fact that tho cactus
never hns attained the popularity of a fllot mlgnon.
In the whole vegetable kingdom probably there
is not another plant family having so many dif
ferentiations of form as tho cacti. For It Is pos
sible to find among them species thnt crawl and
creep like vines, other than stand erect In a slnglo
unbending stalk, like it green living 'monument of
the desert; still others that are rooted to tho spot,
with their highest growth close to the ground nnd
bearing almost no resemblance to usual forms of
vegetation, and others, aguln, that branch out In
thick unbloomlng brunches.
Doctoring for
nes8, Stomach, Liver or Kid
ney Disease or Some Other
Ailment When Their Real
Trouble Was Lack of
Iron In the Blood
How to Tell.
NEW YORK, N. Y. In a recent dis
course Dr. E. Saucr, Specialist, of tills
city said : If you were to make an ac
tual blood test on all peoplo who are
HI you would probably bo greatly as
tonished nt tho exceedingly largo num
ber who lack Iron and who are III for
no other reason thnn the lack of Iron.
The moment iron Is supplied all their
multitude of dangerous symptoms dis
appear. Without Iron the blood ut once
loses tho power to change food Into liv
ing tissue and thereforo nothing you
eat does you any good; you don't get
tho strength out of It. Your food
merely pnsses through your system
llko corn through n mill with tho
rollers so wide apart that tho mllj can't
grind. As n result of this continuous
blood nnd nervo starvation, people be
como generally weakened, nervous nnd
all run down nnd frequently dovelop
nil nnrtR of conditions. Ono is too
thin: another is burdened with un
healthy fnt; somo are so weak they
can hardly walk; somo think they have
dyspepsia, kidney or liver trouble;
somo can't sleep at night, others nro
sleepy nnd tired all dny; somo fussy
nnd Irritable; somo SKinny una dioou
less, but all lack physical power and
endurance. In such cases, it Is worse
than foolishness to take stimulating
medicines or narcotic drugs, which only
whip up your fagging vital powers for
tho moment, maybo at tho expense of
your llfo later on. No matter what
anyone tells you, If you nro not strong
nted Iron three times per day after
meals for two weeks. Then test your
strength again nnd see for yourself
how much you have gained. I have
seen dozens of nervous, run-down peo
ple who were ailing all the time double,
and even triple their strength and en
durance nnd entirely get rid of their
symptoms of dyspepsln, liver and other
troubles In from ten to rourtecu u
tlmo simply by taking Iron In the
proper form, and this, after they had
In somo cases been doctoring for
months without obtaining any benefit.
You can talk as you please about all
tho wonders wrought by new remedies,
but when you como down to hard facts
thero is nothing like good old Iron to
put color In your cheeks and good
sound, healthy flesh on your bones. It
ia niKo n great nervo and stomach
strcngthener nnd tho best blood builder
in tho world. Tho only trouble was
thnt tho old forms of inorganic Iron
like tlncturo of Iron, Iron acetate, etc.,
often ruined people's teeth, upset their
stomachs and were not assimilated and
for these reasons they frequently did
moro harm than good. But with the
discovery of tho newer forms of or
ganic Iron all this hns been overcome.
