rletles which are still In such common de
mand como In for liberal notlco and
comment In tho Thanksgiving stories
of previous centuries. 'What those
old New Englandere. who used
tho long letter "8" when they wrote ac
counts of tholr holiday feasts wputd aay
nnd think It they wcro by somo mlraclo
given tho privilege of resuming an earthly
existence toaay and wero asked to pay 25
cents for a dozen of their favorite Scek-No-Furthers,
Baldwins or Qrecnlngs can
only bo Imagined. And If they wcro told
that a great packing firm was responsible
for It all they would probably bo nono the
wiser.
Probably two moro of tho chief festal food
components aro also moro expensive than
last year. Thoy aro squashes, which aro
high at 3 cents n pound, and pumpkins.
This last vegetable Is very senrco this fnll
nnd Is costing from 1C to 20 cents apiece.
Mushrooms nro also somewhat moro of n
luxury than Is usual, costing CO cents a
pound, an advanco of 10 cents.
Put tho great majority of Thanksgiving
dainties nro as cheap as ever and with them
tho staples as well. For Instance, despite
ino niicgcti corner on fowls which' another
packing company has manipulated, turkoys
nro still 10 cents n pound hero and chickens
8 nnd 10 cents. Then In the grocery line
crnnbcrrles nro just tho same, though prob
ably snmowhat different In prlco from what
thoy wero when, In 1705, tho peoplo of Now
Jorscy first picked them from tho marshes
for use nil through tho caBt on Thanksgiv
ing day.
Then layer raisins, being Imported from
Spain, nro still stntlonnry In, prlco nnd bo
aro Malaga grapes, from tho saroo place.
This dcsplto tho fact that tbcro Is said to
bo a strong "holdup" of nil fruit by n pow
erful combination till tho Christmas season
comes.
Colory, although It Is now being brought
altogether from California tho Michigan
and Neb rank a stock being exhausted la no
moro costly than usual, while the same Is
truo of nuta, head lettuce, 'cucumbers nnd
cider. At any baker's, moreover, doughnuts

tnnt pnrt In tho history of thnt fcstlvnl Is
undisputed, but perhaps tho'most Interest
ing fenturo of this Is tho ovldonco they give
in denial of tho oft-repeated charge that
tho Inauguration of this custom by tho
Puritans was a moro Imitation on tholr
part of tho Christmas ho day festival
wnicn tnoy naa lott Denina tnem in Eng
land. Tho various dishes chosen by the
colonists on Thanksgiving day, so 'far from
being similar to what thoy jiad known at
i no unristmas tiao, were ranicaiiyiamcrent.
In tho first placo, all tho old 'fauperstl-
tlous meats" of Great Britain; were entirely
nvoldod. Tho traditional "barpn of.pe'et" and
boar'a head found no placo Jn the Puritan
menu, being replaced by turkey, ur courso
this was through compulsion at nrst, as
tho English meats wero not' avnllablo, but
thoy aoon wero at hand nnj tho colonists
continued to cling to thclf new viands.
Thus tho Indian pudding nfid pumpkin pto
also replaced plum pudding;, as a dessert.
though It was bred Into the blood1 or the
Puritans through centuries gono by thnt
tho great English dish was to be honored
and maintained.
From that tlmo thcro has been a con-
stnnt diversity In tho yenrjy Itemizing of
ino 'i nnnKsgiving dim oi tare, out mis iihb
never loaned toward tho Christmas dietetic.
Ono of tho principal dlfuslons In tho
roqulstto components of the feast has oc
curred In Its most vital part, tho pieco do
reslstanco Itsolf. Turkey It no longer ox
cluslvoly used. Qecso, duck, chickens nnd
even such game meats SB venlion nro
now purchased to a considerable extent
The change has been entirely the growth
of tho last few years, but lit seems certain
that no combination of flesji, fish and fowl
will ovor deposo tho goiblcr ifrom his
pedestal till tho species Is fexttnat
A peculiar feature of Thanksgiving menus
alnco their beginning has l)een tho absence
of clbarlous foods. Not one of these Is an
essential Item, even in tneimoderq dinner,
and the only channel, li fact, through
which the grains secure any recognition nt
all aro the turkey dressing, the piecrust
and the boay or tne pudding-.
An Interesting but erronoous tradition
concerning tho beginnings Jf Thanksgiving
day Is that the old New Mngianders form
erly made It obligatory. Such an astound
ing Idea must have had a foundation some-
whero, but It is rather difficult b discover
It. It may be that a briet pnrnae in a cer
tain Thanksgiving proclaojatlon) made by
Queen Anne In 1713 Is roiponslljlo for tho
thought. At that tlmo tho ' great! pcaco bad
just boon consummated and tho, royal lady
ordered a Thanksgiving la' honor of It, do
tailing that it was by all "to be strictly ob
served, on pain of suffering such punish
ment as we can justly Inflict on such as
shall contemn or neglect jho performanco
of so religious a duty." '
Tho national character and tho national
mood have been no more' respecters of
Thanksgiving festivals thin of any othsr
institution, horcdltary or acquired. Tho
yearly custom had yet to pass ls first half
century of exlstenco whp the American
tendency to hasten cut down Its period of
annual duration some six-fold. It took only
that length of time for the slowvgolng bur
gotnaatera from Holland and the deltbernto
l'uritans rrom ungiana to evoiv a new na
tloaal trait, that of rushing thing.
