SET APART FOR GRATITUDE Thanksgiving the Day of Ail Day Which Wo Should Remember Our Blessings. on On Thanksgiving day most of us, with deliberate intention and perhaps no little effort, olose the door by which grumbles enter and open wide the other door that lets in praise. Fyr once gratitude has the right of way and we are just a little bit ashamed to be found in the dull company of complaint. At the Thanksgiving service, If we attend It, we give ourselves to a deliberate enumeration of our blessings and remember, perhaps, how many there are less favored than ourselves. There is not time for a complete and permanent smoothing out of the wrinkles of care and perplexity before we sit down at the bountifully laden table, but on the whole we are ready to enter into the spirit of the time? Is Thanksgiving, then, a reversal or an occasional accentuation of the proper habit of a Christians life? If there must be rusty hinges, should they be upon the doors of praise, while the other door of grumbling works with constant ease? The undisputed right of way In the Thanksgiving season ought to be the right of way for all the year. COMMENT COURTEOUS.

Many former coffee drinkers who have mental work to perform, day after day, have found a better capacity and greater endurance by UBlng Postum instead of ordinary coffee. An Illinois woman writes; I had drank coffee for about twenty years, and finally had what the doctor called coffee heart. 1 was nervous and extremely despondent; had little mental or physical strength left, had kidney trouble and constipation. "The first noticeable benefit derived from the change from coffee to Postum was the natural action of the kidneys and bowels. In two weeks my heart action was greatly improved and my nerves steady. Then I became less despondent, and the desire to be active again showed proof of renewed physical and mental strength.' I am steadily gaining in physical strength and brain power. I formerly did mental work and had to give it up on account of coffee, but since using Postum I am doing hard mental labor with less fatigue than ever before.
