WOMEN AND HOUsE-WORK.

Home Duties Wholly Compatible With
Good Intellectual Work.
Louisville Courier-Journal.
House-work, in moderation, i, healthy
and pleasant. 1t is the want of rS such
an Unconditional vent for the restless Gu
ergy that produces many victims of ncr-
vous prostration. 1t is also wholly COM
patible, if brought under any proper sys-
tenn, with good intellectual work More
over, the creating and guiding OF
home is the best gift the world has to
Offer
When one thinks of the food of bad
art and secoud.rate literature of the pres
ent day, is it not melancholy to reflect
upon the wasted energy that might have
gone into beautiful and helpful lives
The education is costly, indeed, whose
price is the woman's joy in the superin-
dencc of her home If she, with al the
incentives of love and pride, despises the
daily cares that make the comfort OF the
household, how can she expect thcm to
be rightly met by hired housekecper,
whose only interest is money getting?
'No man can serve two masters" and,
therefore, it seems to me sef-eyident tnn
any woman who accepts the gift OF
home thereby pledges herself to dp,u..
to it her best service. The neglect %
her first duty and highest privilege c,
not lead to any true work in olhcI q,
rections.

sang true poet and noble woman.
There are women whose God-givcn
talents require to tread lonely path.
There are many Others to whom the SUI
preme treasure of home is denied But
the best work of artist or poet or physl-
clan will ever spring from the hidden,
passionate womanliness that appreciates
to the full the greatness of the sacrifice or
loss.

Tue queen ana fairy OF that household, With
subjects, both white and black, for whom
she had nothing but love- True, her
kingdom at first looked prim, but in a lit
tie while every object had in her eyes ac-
quired golden tint. The dear old aunts in
their ruffled caps, immaculate aprons and
crossed neckerchiefs, seemed like ancient bits
of history that had stepped out from their
ancestral portrait gallery to make themselves
agreeable. Perfect harmony reigned be-
tween the place and its occupants. Every
thing seemed to belong to the same age, and
that past age Not an object had the vul-
garity Of newness about it. Stiff, high
backed rockers confronted one another from
each side Of the old fashioned broad chin
ney, on the hearth of which stood the heavy
brass andirons polished to mirror like bright
ness, that had kept watch and ward for gen.
erations, and it seemed a sacrilege to disturb
their position. Bolt upright against the wall,
with its full moon face and perpetual COO
co., was the grandfather's clock, and among
the traditions was one that the coo-coo never
had failed to announce the time, save once
the day when Col Bainbridge was killed in
the valley.
The household preserved much of its ante
bellum characteristics, and to Kate these
were also strange The family servants had
grown old in their duties. Daddy Hercules,
the coachman, and Silas, the butler, had
heads as white as cotton. Aunt Dilsey, the
cook, was the tyrant of the place, allow
ing little interference from the "white
folks" and no familiarity from ''dem sleepy
headed niggers dat warn't no count no how,
'cept in de CON fell" With all her peculiari-
ties, she was thoroughly respectful, and as
tenacious of the rights Of her old mistresses
as ''in de days when ! wuz er slim niger an
wuz ole MISS boldly servant an Miss Madg'-
ry's nuss." Jerry, her grandson, whose mis-
sion it was to keep the wood pile well stocked,
came in for large share of Aunt Dilsey's
maternal attention, especially when de
light'ood knots gin out, ;" and his life was any
thing but happy lot. for then ''ole man.
N.Y." as he called her, made things lively for
him.
Take it all in all, Beverly was home amid
whose quiet Kate began to feel she could be
happy for the remainder of her life. She
might not have been able to add toits beauty,
but she infused into it the brightness of her
fresh, young nature. Her songs mingled with
those of the birds, and the influence of her
CHEEKY presence pervaded every nook and
Granny on the place, from the solemn old
parlors in the big house to the quarters Of the
yard folks" where she romped with the pic
caninnies or listened to the ghost stories of
Nanny Angeliner.
After baking herself acquainted with all
the home surroundings Kate started out one
day on journey of exploration through the
neighboring country And this is a part Of
the story that may best be told in her own
words, for it is as she wrote it in a letter to
New York friend, and it more or less con-
Germs her fate:

You know, Flora, that sentiment was
never a very important factor in my life,
and vet, here l am already the victim Of q
small romance. The other day, in going out
for a walk, Aunt Dorothy suggested that l

gun was fired and something few by me as
swift as the wind. Naturally frightened,
screamed as only girl can scream who is

the offending cause made his appearance in
the person Of young gentleman in gray
shooting jacket, high top boots, game bag
and gun, followed by three or four dogs.
Raising his hat he apologized, but said that
the sight of deer had been a temptation too
strong TO resist, and ssucily added that he
suspected the deer was suffering from the
same cause as myself, namely, fright, rather
than injury
The October wind had sufficiently dissr

A THANKSGIVING ROMANCE.

Thanksgiving day was q long time in get
ting itself established. It is not an exclusive
~ American affair, and was not generally
observed in the west and south till after the
war; but in New England it may be said TO
date from the middle Of the Seventeenth
century. Over 5000 years ago Moses in
structed the 1sraelites to keep a feast after
they got established i'll the Holy Land They
called it the Feast of the Tabernacles, and
for eight days, following the close Of harvest,
they dwelt in booths made chiefly of green
boughs and Toasted Oh corn, wine, oil and
fruits. In the course of time splendid ritual
for this feast was developed, including much
singing in responsive choruses Somewhat
later the Greeks held nine days feast of
similar character, in which slaves were al
lowed to take part, and all criminals except
murderers. The Romans had similar feast
in honor Of Ceres, goddess of grain.
The Saxons had Harvest Home and
after them the English, which festival was
observed in a sort of way in some Of the
American colonies. In the year 1921 the Pill
grim Fathers tried to celebrate it, but it was
rather gloomy affair. In 1923 ship loaded
with provisions failed to arrive and Governor
Bradford appointed a day Of humiliation,
fasting and prayer, but the expected ship
arrived and SO they made it day of thanks
giving.
Ninety Indians, headed by Chief Massa-
SOFT, took part In 1881 the Puritans ran out
Of provisions, and Feb. 9 was named as day
Of fasting and prayer. As in the other case,
the ship arrived, and they had a feast instead
June Is, 1857, there was general service in
all the churches Of New England to give
thanks for the great victory at Fort Mystic
over the Pequots, and on the 18th of October
following a general service and feast, in honor
of peace and the settling of some religious
differences. Forty years later Governor An
dros ordered the people to give thanks on the
first day OF December; but they hated An
dros and did not thank worth cent Sew
eral persons were arrested for treating the
proclamation with contempt, but this struck
the home authorities as rather ludicrous, and
his conduct was disapproved
Thereafter Thanksgiving was pretty gen.
orally observed in all England and the states
settled by her, the governor naming the day.
George Washington recommended to con-
gress the naming Of national day In 1859,
for the adoption of the constitution; it
was done, and the day was generally OBJ
served. In 1875 the proceeding was repeated.
James Madison appears to have issued the
first presidential proclamation on the subject,
In 1915, in honor of the return of peace
Forty-eight years passed before President
lincoln issued the second one. in 1868 Since
then every president has followed the Gus

Water suits are multiplying, and
will continue to do 80 for the next
few years, any way. The term of the
District Court just closed at Challis
was mainly taken up with cases of
that kind, and the same can be said
OF the term of the Second District
Court in session here, as of other
terms that have been held elsewhere
in the Territory. 1t is really too bad
that men who work as hard for the,I
money as ranchers do should be thus
hampered and put to enormous ex
