One OF the local churches furnishes
calendar every week on which are an
nounced the various services and meet
ings during the week. The pastor usu-
ally has hand in getting up these cal.
endars, and few days ago he described
a new disease" which affects cbrrch
members, and he calls it "Morbus Sab
baticus." He describes it thus: aIt a.
tacks church members; comes suddenIv
on Sundays, morning and evening. The
patient sleeps well on Saturday night
awakes refreshed, eats hearty break.
fast, perhaps reads Sunday newspaper,
but at the ringing Of the first church
bell Q0:15) the sickness begins and con-
tinues till the service ends. The patient
Is then well enough to eat a hearty din
ner, after which walk or ride is en-
3oyed. Returning home the supper is
greatly relished. But about church time
there Is another attack Of the disease,
which lasts about an hour. II is apt to
attack the head of the family at first, but
the children soon ara affected by the con-
tagion."

The Census and City Populations.
1Forum.1


Inc population of the United States
has increased between 1880 and 1890
from $4,000, 900 to "a, 200, 900, or about
26 per cent. Deducting the urban popu-
lation, the increase of rural population
is found to be only per cent, while the
increase of the urban population is more
than 81 per cent. This classification of
urban population includes only cities of
5000 inhabitants and upward. If the
classification should embrace cities of
1000 inhabitants and upward it would
undoubtedly appear that the rural popu-
lation had decreased during the decade,
while the total increase would be in the
cities. This general result has been
brought about Notwithstanding the i'm
mense increase in population in the rural
districts in extreme western states, such
as the Dakotas, Minnesota, Nebraska,
Kansas, Arkansas and Texas.
The following table shows the increase
of the total population Of several states
and the increase of the city population:

Protection for Retailers.

A novel idea has been presented to the
English trade to meet the competition
from manufacturers who have stores for
retailing their own goods. 1t is pro-
posed to form company with capital
stock of 100000. This company win
pay cash for the goods, which will be re-
sold to shareholders at invoice prices,
plus charge of 8 per cent. to cover ex-
penses. The object of the company is
that the shareholders, who are retailers,
will be able to buy all classes of goods
at the lowest wholesale prices for cash,
without reference to the quantity bought
By this plan of cooperative buying it
is figured that great saving can be
made over the regular way of buying in
small lots by retailers. who lose the
trade discounts and other items, which
it is estimated make total of about Is
per cent. The multiple shop competi-
ton is said to be bearing heavily on the
small retailers, and some plan of this
kind is necessary if they are not to be
crowded out. The idea is an excellent
one, but whether it can be made prac-
teal success or not remains to be seen.

throughout the Revolution the annual
observance of Thanksgiving day was
duly recognized by congress. The last
Thursday in November was recommend
ed as q day of national Thanksgiving by
the prayer book of the Protestant Epis-
copal church in 1889. Other denomina-
tions have since then made similar pro-
visions.
The Catholics of America, through
their representatives in the third pie
nary council of Baltimore, officially
recognized the Thanksgiving proclama-
ton of the president on Nov. 81, 1884.
They provided for the recognition and
observance of the day in all Catholic
churches of the land for all years to
come.
In 1886 movement was made to
change the date'of Thanksgiving day to
Oct. ~, the anniversary of the discovery
of America by Columbus. Ten out of
twelve governors were in favor of the
change. But no change was made ex-
cept to declare Oct. 10 an additional

A White Deer Superstition.
ret Innis RannhIic

Inc Indians have theory that every
white deer has. sxnad stonen in its
stomach. They believe that the "Great
Spirit" places this stone in the white
deers stomach to absorb poisons which
that delicate animal may take in while
eating grass. In 1S48 Capt. Wilson, Of
Alabama, killed white doe. Knowing
the Indian superstition he opened the
animal, and found spongy stone as
large as mans fist. This stone. as the
property of w. B. Somers, of Fort
Worth, Tex, has been used successfully
in cases of hydrophobia and snake bite.
