NEW TOWNS.
In Wyoming Waicott to be One of
Them--The Albany County
Rambier-Rawlins Advancing.

With the coming of more people, more
railroads and new enterprises of various
kind to this state every town amt city is
growing and new ones are being founded.
In the north, in the south-every where,
indeed, the signs of a great activity and
unprecedented growth for the coming
year in Wyoming are to be seen. There
will be a chance for everybody with ener-
gy and shfewdness, either to increase his
fortune or to make a good start for one.
Railroad men speak highly OF the
boom that is on at the little town of
Walcott. a few miles east of Fort
Steele. Within the past few months
several things have happened to help
it along. The increased output OF the
mines in the Battle Lake country gave
it the first and most pronounced i'm
petus. Walcottt is the shipping point
for the Ferris Haggerty and long trains
of wagons come there regularly with
the rich ore from that property. The
Observation-Disclosures known as the
Doane--h has taken on new life with the
change in management and the first
shipment under the new control was
made to Walcott last week. 1t looks as
if Walcott will become the regular
connecting point with the Saratoga and
Battle Lake stage line, and a con
siderable number of people are counting
upon it and are going into Walcott with
business of various kinds
FOR A PosToEFICE.
In addition to all this the grade work
on the railroad east OF Fort Steele will
continue a long time yet. A movement
has been organized for the establish
ing of IA postofice at Walcott. The petit
ton has now $50 signatures. A post
Office at that point not only has become
necessary for the town itself but
will be a great convenience for the
%ranchmen of Pass creek and will make
OF Walcott "A center Of some importance.
and several business house are under
construction.
Ii the new Rambler mine near Laramie
turns out to be what it is expected to be
there will soon be a lively little mining
town there. A few days ago a saloon
license was issued to a well known
saloon man of Laramie. who will proceed
at once to start a saloon near the mine.
\ store building also will soon be erected
and occupied and with this beginning
and the increase of a number of work
men in the mine. to gether with the
inevitable rush of prospectors to that
n~eigbborhood, it will not be many
months till "A tow will be in full swing
there.
Among other recent happenings in
various towns Of the state that point to
a wonderful year of growth are the form
ing of a company in Rawlins for the
making of pressed brick and thing of the
fine clay found in great qualities and
the incorporation of "A company to do Il

A Toothsome Revenge.

During the reign of Charles H., the
age of gallantry, it was the custom
among gentlemen when they drank
a lady's health, in order that they
might do her still more honor, to de-
stroy at the same time some part of
their clothing.
Upon one occasion Sir Charles Sed-
ley was dining in tavern and had a
particularly fine necktie on, whereupon
one of his friends, to play him a trick,
drank to the health of a certain lady,
at the same time throwing his necktie
in the fire. OF course Sir Charles had
to do likewise, but he got even, for not
long after that, dining with the same
company, he drank the health of fair
one, at the same time ordering dem
fist whom he had engaged to be pres
ent, to pull out refractory tooth
which had been troubling him. Every
one else was obliged in this manner to
mourn molar.

mind and conduct. One festival sa-
cred to Ceres and Persephone lasted
from Sept. 10 to Sept. 20. Although
monies, the occasion, in the Greek and
Roman world at least, was one of re-
joicing for the bounties of the harvest.
| The Jews in all lands hold week
Of thanksgiving at the close Of the
summer season. This is the feast Of
the tabernacles founded by Moses. In
the course of their peregrinations the
Israelites on the way to the promised
land dwelt in booths, and the event is
commemorated by taking the meals
of the feast in tents or temporary shell
tiers. The roof must admit view of
the sky, and is usually made of the
branches of trees. The more pious of
the race sleep under this green roof.
The members of family, or some
times whole community. club togeth-
er and erect large tabernacles of
boughs. This festival is also called
the feast of the ingathering. 1t is
mentioned in the twenty-third chapter
!of Exodus, sixteenth verse, as "the
feast of the ingathering at the end of
the year. when thou hast gathered in
the labors Of the field"
The rules Of the feast are more ex-
plicitly laid down in the twenty-third
chapter of Leviticus. commencing VIII
the thirty-third verse, as follows:
! And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying:,
v,n
fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the
feast of tabernacles for seven days unto the Lord
Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month
when We have gathered in the fruit of the land We
shall keep feast unto the Lord seven days; on the
first day shall be a Sabbath and on the eighth
day shall be Sabbath.
! And We shall take you on the first day the
boughs Of goodly trees, branches of palm trees
and the boughs of thick trees and willows OF the
brook.
And ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all
that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths
The idea Of the tabernacles and the
ingathering of the harvest are more
closely combined in the sixteenth chap
ter of Deuteronomy, the thirteenth
verse, which says: .#i
j Thou shalt observe the feast of the tabernacles
seven days, after thou hast gathered in thy corn
ana Wlne ... 1.' Is, .t.A
The nearest approach to the modern
Thanksgiving festival as it is kept in
the country was the harvest home Of
the English farm people, formerly eel
lebrated by the whole rural community
with universal merrymaking, feasting,
songs and dances. The last load Of
corn from the field was crowned with
flowers, having. besides, an image rich
~ dressed to typify Ceres, the queen Of
the harvest. When the last load reach
ed the barn. the joyous harvesters sang
! In chorus:
| We have plowed, we have sowed,
We have reaped, we have moved,
We have brought home every load.

Food Receptacles.

All receptacles for food should. as
far as possible, be kept germ and in
sect free. Glass, pottery and metallic
wares are therefore preferable to
wood. They should have no joints or
grooves. as these harbor minute par
ticles of food. Before placing food in
them they should be thoroughly wash
ed, scalded with boiling water. wiped
dry and then be allowed to cool. Plac-
ing them in the sun when practicable
for a couple Of hours will also add to
their purity.

ANCIENT TIMES
[copyright, 1901, By william /. vail

II Copyright, 1901, by william +. 'yail.l
In some form the gathering Of the
harvest has been celebrated by agri-
cultural communities since the days Of
classical antiquity. Ceres, sometimes
called queen Of the harvest, is the sub
feet of endless eulogies in the tales Of
NEUROLOGICAL times.
Demeter, or Ceres, was the goddess
protecting corn and agriculture in gen.
eral. The fame of THIS goddess and a
worship instituted by her extended
over the east. She was the mother Of
Fersephone, the beautiful maiden
whom Aidoneus, with the help Of her
father, Zeus, carried off.
In despair at the loss Of her daugh-
ter Ceres wandered over the face of the
earth and finally, in the disguise Of an
old woman, found a home in Eleusis.
There she at length revealed herself
and caused temple to be built. TAX
ing up her abode in it, year of fam
line came over the land. The soil yield
ed no produce. In vain the people
plowed and sowed seed. The'race was
lin danger of perishing, and Zeus in
despair begged Ceres to COME back to
Olympus, but she would not return to
him nor permit the earth to bring forth
until she had seen her daughter. Zeus
then prevailed upon the captors of
Persephone to release her. and the fair
one was conducted to Eleusis. The
meeting between mother and daughter
was joyous one, and Zeus sent mes
senger to invite his spouse and their
offspring back to heaven. Ceres COM
piled,
And instant, from the deep soiled cornfelds
fruit sent up; with leaves and flowers the whole
wide earth was laden. .... AK
This fiction is taken as a parable to
show the secret life of nature and the
development Of food from a seed Of
grain buried in the earth. Ceres Is
commonly represented with sickle in
her right hand. A wreath of wheat
confines her hair, and cornucopia,
type of plenty, is placed near her to
represent fruitful harvests. ..
! The Eleusinian mysteries origi<
mated in the worship set up to Ceres
at Eleusis. Little is positively known
Of the nature of this secret worship,
except that it was ennobling to the
