AN AMERICAN HOLIDAY.
How Thanksgiving Nay Will Be OBJ
served in santa Ee-Substantial
Reasons for Gratitude-rhe
Misnamed Turkey.

The orderly and swift moving process
sion of the days only lacks one more step
of reaching Thanksgiving, the rarest and
best of the distinctively American holi-
days, a real red letter day in the life of
the grandest republic on our whirling
planet, and a peculiarly fitting day to
offer up the sweet incense of grateful ac
Acknowledgement to the Giver of all good
and perfect gifts for the myriad bless
ings that an exceptionally prosperous
year has bestowed upon man.
In proper compliance with time.hon-
ored custom, both the president of the
United States and the governor of New
Mexico have proclaimed the coming NOR
row as Thanksgiving day and all the
people of Santa Fe seem to be making
unusually elaborate preparations to OBJ
serve the day in the true American spirit
and after the honored fashion of the
fathers of the nation.
Business houses will generally be closed ;
the busy wheels of the New MExIoAN's
big printing plant will be motionless and
all of it's employees will rest and rejoicei
appropriate religious services will be
held in the several churches; family re-
unions around dinner tables, generously
laden with such savory and delectable
dishes as roasted turkey and cranberry
sauce, oysters, roasted pig or 'possum
with sweet potatoes and other dainties
too numerous to mention, will occur in
many homes; and the afternoon and even
ing will be dedicated to open air and in
door amusements of various kinds.
Prosperity has certainly smiled upon
New Mexico this year; Plenty, in the
form of barns bursting with yellow grain,
cellars filled with fruits and vegetables
and thousands of fat cattle and sheep on
the ranges, has chased Hunger and Want
out of this fair territory; hence the
Thanksgiving season of 1897 is ap
preached by our people with more thar
the ordinary mingling of Joy and rever
ence.
As already noted Thanksgiving day il
strictly an American holiday. And ii
may be added for the benefit Of thu
young people that, in spite of it's mis-
leading name, due to a blunder made
many years ago, the typical Thanksgiving
turkey is a native of American soil as
much as is the American Indian. Its name
should have been Columbia.

Concerning a santa Fe Colony


Captain Erastus w. Wood gives the
following interesting items to friend
here concerning the Santa Fe "colony"
now at the Soldiers Home in Los Angeles
county, CAL:
"Joe Stinson has the Klondike fever,
but is too thin to start out, as he weighs
less than do. Billy Burton has been
quite sick, but is now on the convalescent
list. Dennis Coffin is able to get around
with the use of crutches. George Sunday
is fat and hearty and enjoying better
health than he has for years. Painter
Miller is out on furlough working at his
trade. Pat Brady is growing old fast,
but is the same old pat"
Captain Wood speaks in the highest
terms of the new governor of the home,
who has made many Improvements in the
management, especially in the culinary
department. The post fund now amounts
to over $4,000, from which fund an
opera house is being erected capable OF
seating 1000 people. He says the weather
has been extremely hot there recently,
hotter than at any time last sum.

therefore be glad to get back to Santa
Fe again.

SantasFe and. Indian school Kinder
gartens Held Joint THANKSGIVING
Exercises This Forenoon.

In response to an invitation from Mrs.
Fletcher, the faithful and efficient teacher
of the kindergarten connected with the
city schools, the Kindergarten attached to
the government Indian school took part
in the Thanksgiving exercises of the first
named kindergarten this forenoon.
The exercises were unique and exoep-
tionally interesting, consisting of sweet
songe, simple reoitations and exemplif-
cations of the usual kindergarten object
lesson methods of teaching the little
ones.
As the same system is employed in both
of these initial schools, the numerous
spectators were much interested in draw
ing comparisons between the white and
the red. Both acquitted themselves most
creditably.
There were 2S little Indian boys and
girls present in charge of Mrs. Lamar,
and the attendance of white children was
about the same. When formed in circle
around the school room they presented a
pretty picture.

SIMPLICITY ITSELF.
A SIMPLE HARMLESS REMEDY
Yet 1t Cures the Worst Cases Of Dys.
pepsia and Indigestion.

DR.. JennisoD, who has made life study
of stomach troubles, says: All forms of
indigestion really amount to the same
thing, that is, failure to completely digest
the food eaten; no matter whether the
trouble is acid, dyspepsia or sour stom-
ach, belching of wind, nervous dyspepsia
or loss of flesh and appetite; person
will not have any of them if the stomach
can be induced by any natural, harmless
way to thoroughly digest what is eaten,
and this can be done by simple remedy
which have tested in hundreds of sg-
Qravated cases with complete success.
The remedy is combination of fruit
and vegetable essences, pure aseptic pep
sin and golden seal put up in the
form of pleasant tasting tablets and sold
by druggists under the name of Stuart's
D;spe psia Tablets. One or two of these
tablets should be taken after meals and
allowed to dissolve in the mouth and
minpling with the food in the stomach
digests 1t completely before it has time
to ferment, decay and sour.
On actual experinpnt one grain OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
three thousand grains of meet, eggs and
similar wholesome 1Oous.
1t is safe to say if this wholesome rem
edy was better known, by people gen.
orally, it would be national blessing, as
we are a nation of dyspeptics and nine
tepths Of all diseases owe their origin to
I'm perfect digestion and nutrition.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not q
secret patent medicine, but fifty cent
nackaoe will do more real good for a
weak stomach than fifty dollars worth OF
patent medicines and person has the
satisfaction of knowing just what ne Is
putting into his stomach, which he does
not know, when widely advertised patent
medicines are used.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, fnll sized packages Scots.
