No one knows how the custom of appointing Thursday originated, but some light is doubtless thrown on the subject by a controversy over a pro posal to change the day of the week, about 1690, when the dissenters ar gued that Thursday was preferable, because of the Thursday lectures, or midweek religious services, that took place every week in communities of considerable size, a joint observance of the two days rendering it unneces sary, of course, for many to sacrifice a day's labor, especially for Thanks giving. Although the pilgrims were the first to observe Thanksgiving on this con tinent, the Salem colonists, on their voyage over here in 1029, observed Thanksgiving on shipboard, in which everybody, passengers, captain and crew, took part, as an acknowledg ment of a fa'vorable breeze that had followed a preceding day of fasting and prayer. Winthrop colony, in 16o0, also ob served a Thanksgiving, apparently en tirely without any inspiration from the pilgrims, but in accordance with their former custom in England, the motive in this case having been grat itude for the safe arrival of their fleet at Charlestown. where purely relig ious services were held beneath a tree, for it was in hot weather, July S. The Winthrop colony's second Thanksgiving here, which is common ly spoken of by historians as their first, was about eight months later, Feb. 22. when having moved over to the peninsula of Shawmut and taken up their abode in log houses, huts, hovels and even holes in the side of Beacon hill, their number sadly de pleted by diseases caused by putrified food, and even absolute starvation, the arrival of their fellow townsman, Capt. William Peirce. with a shipload of provisions from Ireland, and, best of all. "good store of lemon juice" to arrest the ravages of the scurvy, fur nished them with good cause for de vout thanksgiving and gastronomic dissipation as well. The colony probably comprised 200 or less, no church had yet been built, and it is doubtful if there was any public religious observance of the day. Neither can the bill of fare of any of the households have been sumptuous, according to our ideas, fudged by the record of the ship's car go, which shows that the best the Boston cuisine could have then af forded was corned beef or boiled salt park, oatmeal or wheatmeal mush, without milk or sirup, and ship's bis cuit with cheese. Yet who shall say it was not deem ed a rich feast, when we learn from one who participated in it that a re past consisting of "meal, water and a little salt, boiled together, was so good that none could ask for a better neal." Digestion was facilitated by co pious drafts of ale, if it could be had. from a single large pewter or wooden tankard, which was passed around "Back, gj '&&&&rl f from one to another at the table, af ter the tashion of the modern loving cup. The household environment of those early Boston martrs who had come .'5,000 miles into the savage wil derness, to escape persecution, was as rude and as simple ab their hill of fare. Household furniture there 'vas practically none, save a table of rough hoards, or planks, and enough t-rec-legsred .stools to cccoinmodate the members of the family. There were tablecloths of very coai se linen, but neither table knives nor forks, the finders and spoons of either wood or iron meeting all the roqiiiiements o! the then prevailing table etiquette: china was unknown, and as tea and coffee had never been heard of. me cream pitcher and the sugar bowl we-e not ncded.

For sixty or seventy years, if not longer, the religious phase of Thanks giving differed in no appreciable way vit -J C O V XC C J L.

It is evident that in those days the din ner must have been decidedly a min or affair. It was not till 1721 that tiie afternoon service was abolished, against vigorous protects, from some of the church members, although the change was brought about b fear of the smallpox, then prevalent in the town. A third Thanksgiving was observed in the Massachusetts colony Nov. 11, 1C31, to express the popular joy at the arrival of Gov. Winthrop's wife and another shipload of provisions ' from the old country. Whatever may mdrtgirri: nfcrarg ntnj cfcur TcMvtt rcmHefJatiyx. riw You! This Is My have been the bill of fare of the av erage Boston family on that day, one family, at least, must have enjoyed a bountiful and variegated dinner, for the country people who poured into Boston on the arrival of the ship, a tew days before Thanksgiving, over whelmed the governor and his wife with gifts of fat hogs, kids, poultry, venison and other kinds of game. During the succeeding fitty years there appear to have been Thanksgiv ings averaging about once in two years, and appointed to mark some specific and lemarkable event, as a victory in the Indian wars, or a hap py solution of some troublesome prob lem, either religious or political. Dur ing all those years, and for many af terwaid. fast days were even more numerous than Thanksgivings, be cause the trials ot the Puritans far exceeded their blessings. In some instances there were ser ious differences between the general court, which then appointed Thanks givings, the magistrates and the min isters for the latter always advised in the matter as to which was prop er for the occasion, a thanksgiving or a fast. It is to be noted that the custom of appointing a Thanksgiving simply as an annual custom, and with out regard to any specific or impor tant occasion was almost unknown until well into the last century and was never habitual till within the last thirty years. Indeed, the theory was advanced more than 200 years ago that a too frequent observance of Thanksgiving, and for insufficient cause, tended to make men "too carnal-minded." A printed proclamation of that Thinksgiving. the earliest broadside of its kind known to be in existence now. is in the library of the Massa chusetts historical society, and a re duced facsimile is given with this ar ticle. The general tone of the compo sition reminds one of another Thanks giving, some years later, which was observed only in Boston, for the pur pose of thanking heaven for sparing Boston, while Charlestown. across the river, was thieatened with depopula tion by the yellow fever. A Borton manu of this period, which is in st: .king contrast with the early dinner of corned beef and mush, enumerates roast beef, turkey pie, boiled pork, fowls and tarts. Plymc nth. which was not yet united to the Massachusetts colony, had its Thanksgiving that year Aug. 17. five days at'T the killing of King Philip in Rhoi'c Island, and it so happened that Major Church and his little band of heroe arrived in Plymouth just at the close of the Thanksgiving fore noon sc vice, bringing the great chief's head, which was borne by the major's Indian guide, who had him self shot Philip. Not Always in November. In the early history of the Massa chusetts colony Thanksgiving was usually appointed each year. Usual ly, the day came in the autumn not alvays in Not ember, but sometimes in October, and sometimes December. Week i Far m e r Ha d to S p r i n t HermanDitweiler performed a hero ic act recently at the imminent isk of his life. He was coming to town with a heavy load of rock when he overtook a little girl carrying a basket of eggs to market, and invited her to ride the rest of the way with him. - When he reached the top of the (ong.steep hill leading down into tow n, he locked one of the wagon wheels in order to make the descent safelv. but had only gone a very few feet when one of the horses stepped on a rolling stone and was taken suddenly very lame. He got off the load, unhitched the team and requested another farmer who was just behind him to put in his team and take the load down the hill. The other farmer was about to com ply and Mr. Dwitweiler had lifted up the tongue of the wagon to prepare for hitching in the other team, when the lock chain suddenly broke and the loaded wagon started down the hill, with the little girl still riding in the seat. Ditweiler braced back on the tongue, but was unable to stop the vagon, which, gathering headway every moment, was soon flying down the steep hill like a runaway engine. ' Ditweiler knew that if he dropped the tongue the wagon would be tipped Real Wealth It is estimated, says, the Army and Navy Journal, that Japan has put forth 25 per cent of her strength thus far in the contest with Russia, while the drain on he resources of Russia is less than 2 per cent. This is only a single factor, however, in the com plex problem of military success, which does not always respond to the conclusions or the multiplication ta ble. The politico-economists and the pseudo-philanthropists may manipu late the figures as they please, the fact cannot he made to accord with their theory that war is necessarily exhausting to national strength. Pre cisely the contrary was shown in the case of our great war. Material re sources may assume new forms of distribution in time of war, but this is not necessarily waste. It is the in dustries created by industry which are the foundation of the business of a community through which its indi vidual members procure their means of living. If all those who have the power of purchasing should cease for a single year to buy to make good their wastage, universal poverty and How She Managed Hubby "Tom Gray is a very clever man." remarked one of his friends. "He has managed to effect by diplomacy what most of us have tried and gen erally failed to bring aliout by self assertion, i. e.. a satisfactory freedom of marital action while remaining on perfectly affectionate terms with his wife. "The first ".ear of his marriage he and his Maud were a typical pair of turtle doves, and were never happy out of each other's sight. Then the man, as is generally the case, with out loving his dear Maud any the less, began to be interested in outside things. She noticed this change, and, womanlike, resented it. They had one ro.v after the oilier. Then Tom con-sl-'ered the situation and developed :-tchiavellic talents. He did not ie Iax his devotion to his Maud.

Honesty of The increasing tendency toward the employment of women in positions of trust by financial institutions is thus explained by the president of one of the largest banks in the country: "The feeling is gaining ground that wom en are now rendering satisfactory ser vice as cashiers' and tellers, handling large sums daily without loss or error.

New Style of An oil-burning engine with the cab on the front end has been in opera tion on the Pacific coast for some time, and locomotives of this con struction have also been in use for several years on Italian railways. According to the Engineering News the Southern railway (of Italy) has recently added to its equipment some four-cylinder compounds of this type. They are of the ten-wheel class, with the cab in front of the firebox and .the cylinders at the rear end. The coal is carried in bunkers at the side of the firebox (four tons capacity), and tbe tender bas a cylindrical task. over in a second and the little girl probably killed, so he held -on with a death grip, kept the wagon in the. road and ran as a man never ran be fore. The heavy wagon, with its ton and a half of rock for a load, crashed and roared behind him. and. gathering', speed with every second, flew like an express train down the incline, bound ing over the inequalities of the road and fiercely striking fire from the stones. Ditweiler ran till his legs fairly flut tered beneath him. A man who was crossing the street with a wheelbar row gave one frightened glance at the coming avalanche, dropped his bar row and ran. Ditweiler jumped the obstruction, which was crushed to pieces beneath the wheels of the wagon. The hill Is 800 feet long. and. after the bottom was reached, the wagon ran 500 feet further before its speed was slackened and Ditweiler. by dig ging the "tongue into the earth, could bring it to a stop. The plucky farmer was gasping for breath and dripping with perspiration when his trial was over, but the little girl was laughing gleefully at the "splendid ride" she had enjoyed.

Millions of mineral wealth that were then stored away in the bowels of the earth are there no longer; our soil has been partially exhausted of its fertile prop erties, and our hills and valleys have been largely denuded of their forests. Yet 75,000.000 people exist in compar ative comfort where a few hundred tnousand Indians gained a precarious living before.
