Blessings More Than Material. In other times a Thanksgiving edi­

torial 'was a motley of statistics and boastfulness. We had grown so many million bushels of brain-, our cattle on the thousand hills had increased so many hundredfold; our clearing-house statistics had: never been surpassed; our per capita wealth was the great­est in the world; indeed, our thank­fulness was lost in the glorification of the grift. We wore like the people of Whom ' the Prophet Habaklcuk spake, who had caught much fish in their nets and gathered them in their drags, "therefore they / sacrifice unto their net, and bum incense unto their drag: because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous." Of grati­tude to a Giver, ol' thankful recogni­tion of forces which we . did not cre­ate, but without' whose cooperation we should haVe been as nothing, there was less than ought to have been.

All this was due, of course, not so much to human, ingratitude as to hu­man thoughtlessness. To Thank is to Think. The.-, farther back we think, the farther back wo thank, If our thought ceases with out own contribu­tion- to', our welfare, our thanks cease with ourselves. Tf our appraisal stops with out material increase, our thanks become material and insensibly change into boasting-, We sacrifice unto our great industries and burn incense unto our 'skill, and there oUr homage rests. ' . .

But in... this, Thanksgiving,, (Jay have such incentive to thought as the world has never seen before, and, the

blessings which challenge us are such as do ,not. lend ,themsely,ea„tO;.»i^#rWL: appraisal. J The chief blessings of" trie

day are spiritual; their very names put/,,1

them a world apart from the things j which are quoted on-the market ori .;; „ measured in the scales of physical'. worth. Justice, Righteousness and •> Peace, these are the exalted values in',' •»? which we . feel our true riches to be,!- , --is and for these the entire race of men,> ' whether they keep Thanksgiving to*' ^ i day or not, are most devoutly thank-L< ful.—Exchange.
