THANKSGIVING DAYi
--- I
Canada's Day of Thanks a Month Ear*
lier Than in the United States.
For some reason better known to
the Canadians themselves than to the
iKople on this side of the line, our
Canadian cousins celebrated their
Thanksgiving a month or more earlier
than we do. It may be that the Cana
dian turkey had become impatient, and
sounded a note of warning, or it may
tie that the "frost on the pumpkin” de
< lared itself. Hut whatever the reason,
their Thanksgiving day is past. It may
have been that the reasons for giving
thanks so much earlier than we do
were pushing themselves so hard and
so fast lhat the Canadians were
ashamed to postpone the event. They
have had reasons, and good ones, too,
tor giving thanks. Their great broad
areas cl prairie land have yielded in
abundance, and here, by the way, it is
rot uninteresting to the friends of ;
the millions of Americans who have '
made their home in Canada during the
past few years to know that they have
participated most generously in the
‘ cutting of the melon.” Probably the
western portion of Canada, comprising
hip provinces 01 aianuooa. sasKatcne- j
wan and Alberta, have the greatest j
reason of any of the provinces to ex
press In the most enthusiastic manner
their gratitude. The results in the
line of production give ample reason
tor devout thanksgiving to Providence.
This year has surpassed all others in
so far as the total increase in the coun
try's wealth is concerned. There is no
question that Providence was espe
cially generous. The weather condi
tions were perfect, and during the
ripening and harvesting period, there
was nothing to interfere. And now it
was well it was so. for with a demand
for labor that could not be supplied,
there was the greatest danger, but
with suitable weather the garnering of
the grain has been successfully accom
plished. There have been low gen
eral averages, but these are account
ed for bjr the fact that farmers were
indifferent, relying altogether upon
what a good soil would do. There
will be no more low averages though,
for this year has shown what, good,
careful fanning will do. It will pro
duce 130 million bushels of wheat from
seven million acres, and it will pro
duce a splendid lot of oats, yielding
anywhere from 50 to 100 bushels per
acre. This oil land that has cost but
from $10 to $15 per acre—many farm
ers have realized sufficient from this
year’s crop to pay the entire cost of
their farms. The Toronto Globe says:
■ The whole population of the West
n joices in the bounty of Providence,
and sends out a message of gratitude
and appreciation of the favors which
have been bestowed on the country.
The cheerfulness which has abounded
with industry during the past six
months has not obliterated the concep
tion of the source from which the
blessings have flown, and the good
feeling is combined with a spirit of
thankfulness for the privilege of living
in so fruitful a land. The misfortunes
of the past are practically forgotten,
because there is great cause to con
template wi;h satisfaction the com
forts of tfce present. Thanksgiving
should be a season of unusual en
thusiasm. ’

The happy mother of a seven

FOOD CONTROLS MAN
Scientific Writer Says There Are
No Good or Bad Thoughts.
They Are Wei! or II! Digested Parti

ous Rather Than Pious.
London.—Startling is the theory pro
pounded by a learned scientist that
food, the manner of its digestion and
asimilation, accounts for all the ac
tions of mankind. In the London Mir
ror it is explained by Charles H. Iley
deman, Ph. D. as follows:
The brain is the stomach of the
soul. There are no such things as
good or bad thoughts. They are well
or only badly digested particles of
oxygen, water or food.
The mind, to put it simply, is noth
ing else but a chgmical laboratory, in
which, similarly to the electric cell
process, various chemical products,
from the air we breathe the liquids
we absorb and the food we eat are
split up and transformed into beat and
motion or stored for future use.

brain in continual kaleidoscopic
changes combine with others, setting
free a certain amount of energy, some
of which is manifested in thoughts.
The real stomach as such, is only the
ante-chamber to the brain; it serves
as the general distributer of the nutri
ment which conies down to it. So
much into the blood, so much to form
hone and muscle, fat and fiber, and the
tit-bits into the upper story.
Our food, thus, not only governs
our digestive organs, but our thoughts,
our morals, our actions, our looks, our
whole lives. It makes us the men we
are.
The kill-jov Puritan attitude which
objected to “bear-baiting," not be
cause it gave pain to the bear, but
because it gave pleasure to the mul

Kean, the actor, always suited his

Sydney Smith points out the impor

First Lincoln Cents Gone.
Philadelphia.-—All of the original
“V. D. B.” Lincoln pennies, which
aroused such wide interest because of
the prominence of Designer Brenner’s
initials on them and the subsequent
change in dies to make the initials

CHOPS ACT AS INTOXICANT
Inhalation of Benzine, Excessive Emo
tion and Joy Riding May Make
One Drunk, Says Authority.
Londou.—The vapor given oft by
turpentine, which intoxicated a num
ber of men who were unloading a
cargo of it at Bristol, is not the only
curious inebriant. Even the homely
chop, taken after long abstention from
meat food, may stimulate to the point
of drunkenness.
"Ordinary petrol, or benzine, if in
haled in sufficient quantities for a
long enough period," a correspondent
was informed by a medical analyst,
“will produce the same result.
"Intoxication is by no means an ef
fect of alcohol alone. The intoxica
tion caused by alcohol is complete
and, generally speaking, lasts longer;
but it is quite possible to develop all
the symptoms of drunkenness through
excessive emotion, whether joy, grief
01 the exhilaration excited by music.
"What really happens is that the
nerve centers vare in such cases
thrown out. of unison with each other
t and with the brain, so that mentally
directed actions—walking, talking and
so on—become difficult and thought
itself tends to incoherency.
“A motor ride in fresh air, espe
cially to a person unused to it. will
often produce similar effects, owing to
excessive oxygenation of the blood, in
plain words, overstimulation.
"Again, a man who has been ill for
any length of time and, having been
on a milk-diet, takes too hearty a
meal of meat when lie is first allowed
that food may expect to experience
symptoms of intoxication. A chop,
can, under such circumstances, make
him distinctly drunk.
"Strong coffee will also produce re
sults not unlike spirit, especially if
taken on an empty stomach after
some hours of brain work. Tea is
also distinctly stimulating, as is
shown at an 'at home,’ where it is
usually noticed that the women’s
tongues wag most freely after the
second or third cup.”

The government is entitled to the

eight hours is fixed by the department
under the new circular as the time
within which, after the arrival of the
vessel, importers may file claims for
allowance for shortage or nonimpor

Immediately on notice of these
claims the appraisers, under direction
of the collectors, will detail one or

Within len days after the landing of

Where imported or other perishable
goods have been condemned at the
port of original entry within ten days
after landing, by the health officer or
other authorities, no allowance will be
made until the importers or their
agents within 24 hours after the
condemnation file detailed notice with
the collector.
No allowance will be made for dam
age to any imported merchandise oth
er than the allowance on unperishable
goods, on the ground of nonimporta
tion. Importers, however, are per
mitted under the new regulations to
abandon to the United States within
ten days after entry all or any portion
of any goods included in any invoice
and be relieved from payment of duty
on the abandoned portion, provided
that the abandoned part amounts to
at least ten per cent, of the total
value or quantity of the invoice. This
right of abandonment may be exer
cised regardless of damage or oom
mercial value.
The importers will have to deliver
the abandonded goods at some desig
nated place within the limits of the
port, when the allowance will be made
in liquidating the the entry and the
inarebandise sold or destroyed. On
failure to deliver as required the gov
ernment will take possession of the
goods at the expense of the importers.

Cat Baffles Hawk in Midair

Bloomington (Ind.) Farmer Tells of
Discomfiture of Bird When

Bloomington, Ind.—A remarkable
midair battle between a house cat and
a large chicken hawk on the farm of
Paris Hazel, a leading citizen south
of this city, Is reported by Mr. Haze!
himself, who was an eyewitness.
According to Mr. Hazel's story, he
was awakened early Wednesday morn
ing by a commotion in bis poultry
yard. The hawk was hovering over a
flock of chickens preparing to sink its
talons into one of them and carry it
away, when Mr. Hazel appeared.
Through a mistake the Invader
caught up the cat, and as it arose 25
feet from the ground the feline began
to scratch and fight, at the same time
letting out ‘'yowls" that plainly indi
cated its distress. The biting and
scratching of the cat caused the hawk
to release its hold and tabby came to
the ground with a thud. The hawk
made another attempt to attack the
cat, when Mr. Hazel quickly drove it
away.

family vouch for the truth of the un

(Copyright, by W. G. Chapman.)
"Surely, you know how I love you.” ,
he persisted. "Why, my every thought |
and action is of you!”
The woman at the piano shook her j
pretty brown head. While her back j
was toward him, something told her I
he was posing. Somehow Valeska j
was forever posing; his every move- i
rnent was studied and artificial, and— j
she was tired of foreigners. In three
months one may even grow tired of
Rome. On the spur of the moment she
decided to go Imme—back to America
—and at once.
"Cicely!” The man's voice was a
caress. "Cicely, I love you.”
"Please don’t.” She put up a hand
between them. "Won’t you understand
that it cannot be? Much as it pains
us both, 1 must tell you that I cannot
marry you. Why go over it all again?”
He retreated to the far end of the
room, and sat down, quiet and
abashed, like a chidden child. Cicely
could scarcely repress a smile. Val
eska was so ridiculously funny when
he fell into one of his naughty-boy
noses
"Oh. you will get over it, man ami,”
she laughed. "Come, help me get the
tea things ready! My friends will
be upon me directly like a pack of
hungry wolves. ’
Valeska helped ner arrange the
table and make the little thin slices
of bread and butter into pyramidal
piles, but when the Leo X. urn was
purring like a happy cat, he reached
for his stick and gloves.
"Not going?” cried Mrs. Fairfax.
"Yes.”
"Au revoir,” she laughed. And the
next moment he was gone.
Cicely glanced around the room.
[ taking in every detail, its artistic lit
| ter pleased her. She could never
i bear to see things just right.
“Now for Ned,” she smiled, arrang
ing a few violets in her gown. "But
of course he will not come,” she
pouted.

was a painter of miniatures, young,
good looking, successful.
"What’s up?" she asked, seeing Mrs.
Fairfax seated alone in state.
"Oh, Valeska again. He proposes
as regularly as the sun sets. I am
going back to America just to escape
him.”
"Pretty wido’. s with generous in
comes do not grow on bushes,” re
marked her friend, dryly. "You must
try some other plan than going back
to America. Why not marry Ned Ran
dolph?”
“N'ed Randolph has long ago for
gotten a pretty widow with more
money than brains.”
"What rubbish!” Miss Robins
helped herself to a slice of bread and
butter. "Of course you will marry
Randolph, Cicely. He is awfully fond
of you.”
Mrs. Fairfax shook her head. “1
j tell you is is no use, Bobbie. He has
i long ago become disgusted with this
! frightfully frivolous widow.”
| ’ I'll wager anything that you marry
him before June,’’ cried Roberta.
"Now, you know. Cicely, you are fond
of Ned. And you can't deny that he
followed you all the way from New
York to Rome. Now. my dear girl, 1
have the greatest idea—a sure way to
patch up everything between you and
Ned Randolph. You know you have
treated Ned shabbily, dear girl.”
"Well, we’ll let it go at that," sighed
Mrs. Fairfax, pouring the tea.
"You must ask Valeska to breakfast
at the Casino Wednesday morning_”
began Roberta.
"And give him another chance to
propose? Thank you, but 1 much pre
j for not, Bobbie.”
j "And lose Ned forever?"
Mrs. Fairfax played with the tea
cups. "Certainly, a breakfast with
j Valeska does not sound inviting," she
I confessed.
j "But Ned Randolph," cried Miss
Robins, dangling the prize before her
friend'sr eyes.
"Oh, well, go on, ask Valeska to
breakfast Wednesday morning—what
next?”
“At the Casino?”
j "Yes, yes."
•"You will breakfast on the bal
cony overlooking the new golf links
—the south balcony, you know. Of
course you will be particularly fascin
ating, coquettish, laughing, you know
wbat I mean, and you must make Val
eska ask the eternal question—”
“And he'll get the eternal answer, I
promise you.”
"Exactly. You will tell him the
plain truth—that you love another—
namely, Ned Randolph. You will give
Valeska to understand that you have
been merely using him as a pastime
—that never for a moment were you
serious, and that now you are only
waiting for Ned to come and take you
back to America. Hush, not another
word! Here comes the principessa
Martoni and her American daugh
ter-in-law. Don’t forget, Wednesday,
the Casino, at noon.” And she had
gone before Cicely had another chance
to approach the subject.
■ When on Thursday morning, Rob
erta Robins entered Mrs. Fairfax’s
drawing room, gay with its many daf
fodils. and scented with the breath of
Parma violets, Cicely knew by the
steely glitter of her friend’s eyes that
there was going to be a scene.
“Of all the idiots!” cried Miss Rob
ins, shaking a forefinger at the pretty
widow smiling up at her from among
the cushions. “You will end your
your days in a mad-house. Cicely Fair
fax. What did you do yesterday
morning at the Casino?”
“Why—Valeska was there, ’pon
honor, Bobbie.”
“You played golf ail morning, for
hours and hours and hours you golfed.
1 was nearly insane!”
“But the temptation was too great,
and besides, the golf links are the
finest in Italy. Oh, Bobbie, you should
see Valeska play—”
"Never mind that long-haired mon
key. What about the breakfast on
the south balcony?”
“But the chef at the Casino is not
equal to the links, Bobbie. We break
fasted at Maurice’s.”
"And golfed at the Casino!”
snapped Roberta.
Mrs. Fairfax affected a childlike air.
"I fail to see why I am to be drawn
and quartered simply because I pre
fer the chef a't Maurice’s to the chef
at the Casino.”
"But I said—”
“You said I was to ask Valeska to
breakfast—”
—“at the Casino,” interrupted Miss
Robins, “and while you and Valeska
were falling into Gibson poses on the
links, I was holding a lion at bay in
breakfast room No. 5 at the Casino.
It was all I could do to restrain him!”
Miss Robin’s eyas flashed.
"But to breakfast with a lion!" Mrs.
Fairfax shook her head. “Roberta
Robins—”
"The lion was Ned Randolph,”
snapped the artist, jumping up and
going to the balcony.
A shuffling noise came from the
music room.
"You breakfasted — with — Ned—
Randolph, Bobbie?” The widow bur
ied her face in the cushions. “Wasn’t !
that a strange way to show your friend
ship?”
“Oh, you haven't a grain of sense,
Cicely Fairfax! I had it all arranged
nicely. You and Valeska were to
breakfast on the soi|th balcony, Ned
and I in room No. 5, directly in back
of you. And Valeska was to propose, I
and you were to tell him about how
you adored Ned, and Ned was to jump j
through the window aud clasp you in
his manly arms, and—and—instead
you played golf!
“But I didn’t Know—” apologized
Cicely.
“To-morrow we must repeat the per
formance, only, this time you break
fast at the Casino.”
"But I have an engagement with the
Principessa at noon to-morrow—”
"It’s all off. I’ll telejphone her!”
And before Cicely could restrain her,
Roberta had dashed aside the curtains
of the music room door.
Ned Randolph, standing behind them
like a silly school-boy, had the grace
to blush. But Cicely—Cicely buried
her face in the pillow and laughed.
“Ned! Cicely!” Mis Robins turned
from one to the other. “You heard?”
she demanded, flushing.
"Everything. It was ugly of me,
Bobbie,” Randolph spoke up. "You
will forgive me?”
“And you knew and played golf pur
posely, Cicely?”
“And Ned kept running to the win
dow,” came from the depths of the
chair. "Scold him, too.”
“1 must plead guilty.” laughed Ran
dolph. "You see, Bobbie, we remem
bered how you played the same little
trick with Marian Derring and young
Ashby at Newport last summer,” cried
Cicely. "And I couldn't help having
a little fun—”
oo you two were mere: oil, tny,
and I had forgotten. But it 'took'
then, Marian married Ashby.”
"And Cicely is going to marry Ned,”
laughed Randolph. -‘ She is tired of
being a merry widow, aren’t you, little
woman?"
"And you, Bobbie, what are you go
ing to do?” said Cicely, as she made a
buttonehole for the man’s coat.
"Me?” Roberta jumped tip and
straightened her hat. “Oh, I am going
to finish my interrupted honeymoon.
Valeska and 1 only came up from
Florence to help straighten out a lit
tle affair of our friends. Really, we
are the most unselfish creatures alive.
You must come and see us. We have
a charming studio near the Lung
’Arno. But I must run. Vally is
waiting for me at the Nationale. Au
revoir.”
Improved Photographic Lens.
One of the latest photographic
inventions is a Jens by means of which
a complete view all around the ob
server can be taken at once. It is
known as a periscope lens, and en
ables the observer to see all around
the horizon without moving. Such a
lens should prove useful on board
ship, In aeroplanes and in all cases
where a view all around is essential.
The result Is attained by means of a
circular ring of glass curved on the
outer surface, and flat inside. By this
the light from all sides is reflected
down the tube which carries the lens.
The periscope lens enables the photog
rapher to take a circular picture of
the view all around him.' The new
lens is a British invention.
