A Cure For Love.

Take u ounces of dislike, /
pound of resolution, two grains of
common sense, two ounces of ex-
perience, a large sprig of time, and
three quarts of the cooling water Of
consideration. Set them over the
gentle fire of love: sweeten it with
sugar of forgetfulness; skim it with
the spoon of melancholy; put it in
the bottom of your heart; cork it
with the cork of clear conscience,
and let it remain, and you will
quickly find ease and be restored to
your sense again. These things
can be had of the apothecary, at
the house of understanding, next
door to reason, on prudence street,
in the village of contentment.

GIVE THANKS D
The Nations Feastday-How 1t
Originated and What it
Means.

'oiy lew people, doubtless,
know that we owe our annual feast
day or Thanksgiving to the Pill
grims who landed ON Plymouth
Rock in 1920; but it is neverthe-
less a fact that we do. Everyone
at all familiar with American his
tory knows of the terrible winter
that followed the arrival of the
self-sacrificing fathers on the bleak
shores of America. The little band
of settlers was SO reduced In cir
cumstances that It was compelled
to live on half rations. To cap the
climax of their woes, word came
that Gov. Edward Bradford, with
an Indian leader, Massasoit, would
visit them with ninety men. Not
that the Pilgrims did not wish to
welcome Gov. Bradford under any
other circumstances, but the rations
of the little party were so reduced
that the leader began to fear that
the winter could not be tided over,
and he could not see that it was
possible to feed a large body of
visitors and sustain his nearer
friends throughout the season.
But they made the best of it, and
concluded to welcome the visitors
with as good a feast as they could
set before them. At length the
Governor and his men arrived f.;
and they did not come empty
handed. Every man was laden
with supplies for the little camp of
Pilgrims. The Governor declared
that three days should be given to
a public thanksgiving and the dec
laration was carried out. This is
the way the custom was estab-
lished; and the noble idea that had
its birth in the woods on the rock
bound coast of New England has
been carefully rostered to this day,
when a mighty wave of thanksgiv-
ing each year stands as a monu-
ment to it.
AS turkey was the chief meat at
the feast of the New Englanders,
so it is that in 1888 the noble bird
is a leading factor in our Thanks
giving dinners. Although many
are unacquainted with the origin of
the day the character of the thanks
giving dinner still indicates the
source from which the feast arose.
Through all changes of time and
place the turkey has retained its
position as the chief feature of the
feast, as much so as when this bird,
at that time a rare delicacy, slnok-
ed at the head of Gov. Bradford's
table, around which sat the stern
Puritans and the painted warriors
of the forest. However rich or
however poor the dinner the turkey
is sure to hold the place of honor.
Another favorite Indian dish, In
dian pudding, is seldom absent from
the Thanksgiving board, and the
famous New England delicacy,
pumpkin pie, is regarded as al
most indispensable. A relic of
colonial times, strictly observed
in the Northeastern States, less
generally in other parts of the
country, is the custom which re-
quires the Thanksgiving dinner to
be a midday and not an evening
meal. Many dishes and customs
characteristic of the English Christ
mas were early engrafted upon the
Thanksgiving feast, and still re-
tain their place. The Christmas
plum pudding, and its American
prototype, mince pie, have become
lndissolubly united with Thanks
giving, while the Christmas holly
and mistletoe are freely used for
decorations at this season.

Is MARRIAGE A FAILURE 3?
It Was Fer Henry Lavender, of
Near Wellsvllle.

Henry Lavender, a bachelor of
some forty winters, married, on
Thursday afternoon, a lass of
twenty summers. So sweet and
beautiful is she, it is said, that no
season but summer and not even
n winter is suggested by a look
at her. She was ali sunshine when
the gentleman with the name Of
royal hue offered her his hand and
heart and when, in the middle of
last week, the pair were made one
at the altar, both seemed al perfect
peace with all the world about
them.
With his beautiful bride, Mr..
Lavender set up his establishment
in a good neighborhood and on
Saturday visited the furniture
dealers place and spent money
lavishly, buying everything he
could lay his eyes that would meet
the fancy of bride of day.
Sunday morning, after arising,
Mr.. Lavender bid his young wife
an affectionate adieu and went to
the barn to look after the COWS. He
did not return at once, but Mrs.
Lavender thought nothing of his
absence, thinking it very likely
that by a back way her husband
had gone down town. About ten
o'clock, however, she wandered
out to the barn and opened the
door to go in; but she never passed
the threshold. She screamed and
tainted; and when the neighbors
arrived Mrs. Lavender was yet
unconscious, while her husband
was hanging from a %rafter, quite
dead. He had hanged himself af-
ter less than three days of married
life. He left no word, and the
word ''mystery' is painted in let
tiers of blood over his little home,

Bows and Tobacco.

In an experimental observation
of thirty-eight boys of all classes OF
society, and of average health, who
had been using tobacco for periods
ranging from two months to two
years, twenty-seven showed severe
injuries to the consultation and
insufficient growth; thirty-two
showed the existence ofirregularity
of the hearts action, disordered
stomachs, cough, and a craving for
alcohol; thirteen had intermittency
of the pulse, and one had consump-
ton. After they had abandoned the
use of tobacco, within six months
time one-half we're free from all
their former symptoms, and the re-
mainder had recovered by the end
