\Vo didn't know the day of tltu week.
uiiH'li less that of thu month , for we
paused dayH and nights miinetlmcH hid
ing from pnrsiitTH In dark eaves and
Hlupt from Hhoer exhaustion without
reference to thu rlnlng or thu polling of
thu Rim. OIH ; day wo cainu upon a cabin
hidden In the iiioiiiitiiln wilds occupied
by n iH-gro who , llku ourselves , wan a
rofiiKco. At the beginning of thu war
bo had run away from his inastor In
cast TutiuessL'u and started blindly to
meet up with "MiiHsm l.lnluim's no-
gem. " Having lost Ids way and got
( rlKhtoncd by the rooming bushwhack
ers who Infested the mountains , ho
built u cabin anil waited for that Ju
bllco of freedom his simple faith told
b.1 in must come. With eyes almost
bursting from their sockets ho listened
to our story of thu emancipation how
Lincoln had struck thu fetters off from
every slave ami If once he could reach
Yankee territory there would bo no
more drugging him back to Hlavery.
When thu poor wretch comprehended
the wonderful story he sat silent for
11 long time. Then he looked Into thu
face of each of us , a gleam of peace
growing brighter and brighter on his
ebony skin. "IV all Is sliuah 'miff
Yanks , " said he , "else yo' ain't talkln'
dnt a-way to lllaek Sam. " Nothing \vu
could say was HtrniigiM" than thu no-
Kro's Ionic. "Yo's Yanks , an" yo'H bun-
gry. I'zo hungry , too-hungry for tur
key , 'kase dls about TliiiiiUsglbiMi time.
IV.u ( 'wlne kill ilu bird o' freedom an'
Klh yo' all a dinner. " For a moment
we thought the Htnrtllng news of eman
cipation had turned the poor slave's
brain. There was no sign of poultry
culture about the premises.
Illack Sam saw the doubt written on
our faces. "Oh , I'ze got dat turkey , all
right ! " he shouted. "IUn waltln' free
year fur tns'o o' 1dm. 'Twiia dls a-way :
I 'lowed du ulggahs gwlue get free all

Blaclt Sam n-e-b-o-r goiu' eat turkey

Ilu git tough , an' du buzy/rds git him.
Den 1 I'otch one mo' , an' 1 say dls du
bird o' freedom , slmah. Now , Ink yer. "
With that he led the way up the
mountain side till lie came to a tangle
of wild grape vines which fell over
the rocks and trees like a huge wall.
These he parted deftly and conducted
us to a spacious glen shut out from
the prying world. Tied to a stake with
a long rope was a I'at turkey. "See dt ;
bird o' freedom "t" says he. with a
broad African grin. "Cotched dls chick
about las' Chrls'mus ober de mouu'n.
Hide him yer all day , an' nighttime
take him out In du beech woods so he
get fat fo' de day o' Jubilee. Now I got
do Th.uiksKlbon tas'o In do iiiour , an *
Jubilee done come. "
I1.1 . Afli'i1 moro of his palaver It was sot-
' ' tied that ho would roast the bird In a
j' ' rude even built In the hillside , then
I'i ' i * servo 11 In the oabln. Meanwhile wo
"
| j woniont trumps would sleep ourselves
-if Into a titling appetite for the jublleo
ijl feast , whleh was to bo turkey nnd corn
'
pone. Illack Sam led us bade to the
1 I , oabln and shoved asldo some of the
: poles whleh made a Hooping for the
| loft overhead. Climbing up with the
help of n rude bench , wo found a carpet -
pet Inof ; mountain grass for our bed
and n space Just large enough to He
down spoon fashion , us we'd done In
prison , and aired by a hole cut In the
gables. Itlack Sam descended , and we
' * moved the loose poles back Into posi
tion. "Aln" no bnshwhackln' socesh
gwlno Ink fur yo' up dare. " said ho ,
with a chuckle , and went his way to
prepare the turkey.
After a long sleep we awoke and
crept down faun the loft , wondering
that wo had not been bidden to the
fenst. Black Sam was sitting llku a
uiouruer , with his lank yellow dog for
a companion In misery. By the light
of a waning lire In thu chimney wo
eaw the well picked bones of a turkey
and some scraps of pone on the board.
What had happened ? Surely that woe
begone negro and his woebegone dog
bad not regaled themselves on thu bird
of freedom. We looked from one to
the other of our crowd and then to our
host , who tremblingly began his Btory
of the disastrous Jublleo fete. Said
bo : "Dess I git dat turkey an' dat pone

"Yankee soldiers , Sam ? Are yon

We didn't make any noise , either , not
being certain we wore out of the woods
yet ; but every mother's son of us grin
ned llku the man In the moon. Yankees
of the right sxrlpe were what we were
looking to meet up with more than a
feast of turkey and pone.

At last wo wuro among friends good
enough fortune to draw thanks from
yearning stomachs. Wo scraped to
gether a little Yankee money to re
ward Hlack Sam for the loss of his
Jublleo dinner and for saving our necks
with that lone nigger bluff , which so
effectively dulled the curiosity of
Noah's Infamous gang.
The negro grinned at the sight of
the greenbacks , coming with Ida newly
discovered freedom. Wo kept on grin
ning In our Joy at being once more In
"God's country , " surrounded by boys
In blue. No doubt the bushwhackers
were grinning , too , over the after taste
of that unexpected dinner. They getaway
away from their pursuers , but wo
didn't begrudge them this good for
tune. And as wo got next to Uncle
Sam's fat rations In the saddle pouches
of Crook's Kanawlm cavalry division a
few hours later wo didn't begrudge
them their monopoly of Illack Sam's
Jublleo turkey and pone.

Hnlnil Day * .
Qu\te \ the simplest Interpretation of
the trite phrase "salad days" rcfera It
simply to the fresh green quality and
character ef euch vegetables ns lira
grown for salad and which may he
taken ns typical of the raw Inexperi
ence of youth. Probably It was used In
this connection by Shakespeare In "An
tony and Cleopatra : "
My anlntl days ,
When I was green In Judgment.
Another and very different derivation
links the expression with Halle , or sad
dle , the block upon which In olden days
ochoolboys wcro birched. In this form
thu words are allied to the "pcn'orth of
salad oil , " for which , on All Fools'
days , boys wcro sent to the saddler's
shop , whore they often met with a
warm reception.
It Is Just possible that the term bad
some reference to the "Saladlne-tenth , "
u tax Imposed by Pope Innocent III. to
provide funds from Knglnnd and
Franco for the crusndo led by Ulchard
I. , but this seems needlessly farfetched.

The 1'rexlilent'n Turkey.
For the past thirty years the turkey
which has graced the White House ta
ble on Thanksgiving day has come
from Westerly , U. I. , the gift of Illram
Vose. In 1873 Mr. Voso sent n thirty-
six pound bird to President Grant. It
was received with such favor that ho
has continued to supply the yearly
presidential turkey , and his sons after
him will keep on sending turkeys to
Washington as long as the race holds
out. Mliode Islnnd turkeys are not ns
numerous ns they once were , but their
quality has not deteriorated. Bronze
and Nnrrngnnsett grays are the stand-
and breeds. No change has been made
In the methods of breeding turkeys as
the years have gone by , but In view of
the bad luck farmers have had recent

Rheumatism'
* Is Not a SKirx Disease.
Most people have nn idea that rheumatism is contracted Hko n cold , that the
damp , chilly air penetrates the muscles and joints nnd causes the terrible aches
and pains , or that it is something like a skin disease to be rubbed away with lini
ment or drawn out with plasters ; but Hlmcmatism originates in the blood and is
caused by Urea , or Uric Acid , an irritating , corroding poison that settles in mus
cles , joints nnd nerves , producing itillamuiatiou and soreness nnd the sharp , cutting
pains peculiar to this distressing disease. , , ,
