HOW THAEKsaIvINa BAY
ORIGINATED.

Prior to 1862 Thanksgiving day was
a state holiday only, and was not always
o~bseryered in all states. Moreover, 1t
was often fixed at different dates in diff
ferent states, the dates being selected
by the governors. 1t was a New Eng
land celebration originally, but was
generally adopted in most of the states
prior TO the war.
In 1862 President Lincoln proclaimed
a special day Of thanksgiving for a VIC
tory of the Union troops. In 1868 he
proclaimed a similar special day, and in
November. 1868 and 1864, he proclaim.
ed the annual Thanksgiving day as a
national observance. Since then all
succeeding presidents have followed the
example, and Thanksgiving day is,
strictly speaking, the only national hol-
iday in the year. All other holidays,
such as Fourth of July, Christmas,
and the like, are observed in Difference
to state laws only. congress not having
made them legal holiday.

A Brnve young woman.

There is at least one young woman in the
country who has the courage of her convic-
tiOns. She is pretty, fashionable, eighteen
and lives in Brooklyn. Lately she invited
young man to go to the opera with her
chaperon and herself. He, in replying,
mentioned that he would have the carriage
at her house at a certain hour, whereupOn
she wrote to him Immediately, begging
that he would omit the carriage; she and
her chaperon were to wear street costumes.
and the cars were quite good enough and
much more rapid, putting the matter in
way that made it impossible for him to in
sist.
Many other young women would like to
be thus wisely kind il they knew how or
dared. They fear to offend the sensitive
pride Of the young men for whom they
would be glad to make things easy. The
expense Of a carriage trip from Brooklyn
to upper New York and back late at night
they understand as well rs anybody is
disproportionate to the salary received by
most young men, They lack, however, the
courage to prevent it, such is the tyranny
of social formalities.-He Point Of View

Mr.. Pitt and His Father

Brought up q Wing, Pitt broke the Wing
tFaditian, His relation to George III was
father that of an imperial chancellor than
an English premier. No doubt this was
largely due to the character Of the man, to
his extraordinary self confidence and quiet
assumption that he was match for any
man or combination of men. The training
Of his boyhOOd and his "sequestration, y as
he called it, in early youth from all com

led him to think that if he was fit com
panion IQg his father he was fitted to rule
mankind, Lord Chatham describes how
carefully he was forced to watch himself,
conscious that his son initiated him from
childhood. He discussed literature and
politics with his son when the boy had not
passed his fourteenth year Even then the
'fneness Of his mind" Lady Chatham
writes, made him enjoy with the highest
pleasure what wQnld be above the reach of
any other creature of his small age"
And Mr. Hollis, who visited father and
son when they were residing together at

ham, should not find his equal among men.

TIE Cnre ofLnmns

Granted cleanliness and ordinary care
there can be no accident. To begin with
the lamp should be trimmed and filled
with oil in the morning every day. Once a
week the oil container should be ethorOugh-
ly emptied out and the small amount of
dirty oil thrown away. Next see that the
burner is clean. Whenever the lamp burns
badly this should be at once looked to, as it
often is the cause Ifthe burners are boiled
for few minutes in soda and water at reg
ular intervals there will be no difficulty in
the burning.
| Next see that the wicks fit exactly. For
this purpose, when new wicks are required,
the lamp burner should always be sent.
Some people buy their wick by guess, a
most foolish plan, for not only must it be
Of the right width, but also Of the right
thickness, so as to allow of the oil reaching
the flame properly, and also to let the wick
be turned up or down easily. Another
thing to ascertain is if the wick is worn
out A lamp should have fresh wick
every month at least. BE careful before
fitting in a new wick to see that the latter
is perfectly dry 1t should be placed for
ten or fifteen minutes on a hot plate before
fixing it in the lamp, so as to remove any
moisture.
tt is said that soaking the wicks in vine
gar, and then drying thSm thoroughly,
prevents all chance of smoking; but of this
there should be no fear where the lamp is
regularly 9nd properly cleaned and trim
med. Bessery careful in trimming the
wick not to let any of the charre,i part fall
into the burner This is a fruitful source
of trouble. Lamps with metal reservoirs
are { 4doubtedly safer than those of glass
oE,l9 ga, as the former, if upset, can be |
pc . , up and replaced before the oil can |
esq -9e. Therefore, where children are |
a65ut, it is better to have only metal con |
tainers or else metal containers which can |
be slipped into the china or glass stands.
Of course the oil used must be of good /
quality. There is no saving, but, on the
contrary, waste and some danger in poor
1il. Bad oil clogs the wick and the burn
sr, besides giving off an unpleasant and
very dirty vapOr.
ppe more hint. Never turn down a
amp, allowing it just to glimmer. It is
meant to burn with the flame at full
height, and when allowed to smOlder in
his way It will either smoke or smell

RELIGION MADE HER HAPPY.

1 went through the heaviest snOwstorm
| have ever known to see u dying girl Her
cheek on the pillow fas white as the snow
on the easement. Her large, round eye
had not lost any of its luster. Loved ones
stood all around the bed trying to hold her
back. Her mother could not give her up,
and one nearer to her than either father OF
mother was frantic with grief. l said,
Fanny, how do you feel?" "Ohr, she
said, "happy, hRppy Mr.. Talmage, tell
all the young folks that religion will make
them happy"
AS came out of thereon, louder than all
the sobs and wailings of grief, heard the
clear, sweet. glad voice of the dying girl,
Good night; we shall meet again on the
other side of the river" The next Sabbath
we buried her. We brought white flowers
and laid them on the coffin. There was in
all that crowded church but one really
happy and delighted face, and that was
the face of Fanny. Oh, wish that now
my Lord Jesus would go through this au-
dienne and take all these flowers of youth
and garland them on hts brow. The cedar
is a fit refuge for birds Of brightest plu-
mage and swiftest wing. See, they fyl
they fiyl CAN fowl Of every wing"
Again remark that the old may come.
You say, Suppose man has to go on
crutches; suppose he is blind; suppose he
is deaf; suppose that nine-tenths of his life
has been wasted" Then answer: Come
with crutches. Come, old men, blind and
deaf, come to Jesus. If you would sweep
your hand around before your blind eyes,
the first thing you would touch would be
the cross. II is hard for an aged man or
woman to hav0grown old without religion.
Their taste Is gone. The peach and the
grape have lost their flavor. They say that
somehow fruit does not taste as it used to-
