Some Strong Arguments.

The Harness Gazette publishes
the following as All argument for
dealers to use why farmers should
patronize the home dealers, rather
than the distant department store
and catalogue house. 1t contains
some strong features, and the
points should be remembered and
urged wherever they will influence
sales.
An exchange aptly remarks;
"Who sympathized with Won when
You We're sick? Was 1t your home
merchant or was it some mai
order house? Who gave you credi;
last winter when YOU were out OF
job or short OF money? Was it
some department store or was it
your home merchant? When you
want TO raise money for the
churches or some needy person in
town do you write TO some mail
order house or do YOU 20 to your
home merchants? How much do
these department stores give to-
ward keeping up the highways and
sidewalks III the town or paving
the minister's salary? When vou
were sick how many nights did
some one in the mail order house
sit up with you? When your low
J cd one was hurled the home mer-
chant uttered the cheering word
and not some foreign dealer.
"Who helps pay the taxes in
your town and is always ready tc
help in any legitimate undertaking?
Is it a department store or is il
your home merchant? OF cours,
it is your home merchant whC
does these things, and you can ge
just as lew prices with them as il
the city. Besides they are here t,
right any wrong"

Thanksgirlng.

OF late years Thanksgiving has be-
come with most Of us little more than
an occasion for indulging in unlimited
turkey and plum pudding, perhaps 60
ing to the matinee or a football game or
some other sort Of junketing in the af-
ternoon. We scarcely realize the deep
solemnity OF the first Thanksgiving day
ever celebrated on this continent by our
stern Puritan forefathers from whom
we inherit both strenuous dispositions
and our dyspepsia. The first Thanks
giving occurred in the Plymouth colony
soon after the landing of the Pilgrims,
in 1921. The little harvest Of the set
tiers had been successfully gotten in,
the Indians were for the moment peace
full, and everything looked brighter and
more promising to the little community
than it had for long time, so day Of
thanksgiving to God for his great mer-
cies was appointed. Of the best hunts
men Of the colony four were singled out
by the governor, who sent them "fowl-
ing, that there might be wherewithal
for feast of rejoicing" The game
they brought back with them was the
wild turkey hence the bird whose SOW
ereignty on that day has for over two
hundred years been undisputed. 1t is
believed by the best authorities that the
first celebration took place in October,
as it was out of doors and lasted nearly
a week Every twelvemonth or so other
days of thanksgiving followed for AZ
years, but at no given time or season,
Each congregation appointing the day
that it deemed most convenient. Some
times it occurred in the spring, after
hard winter; more often in the fall, to
return thanks for a generous harvest.

General DeWet is writing a book,
"The Struggle Between the Boer aad
Briton." A summary of advance sheets
says the work dispassionately, digni-
iedly and frankly reproaches England
for provoking the war and for commit
ting cruelties in conducting it, but the
author does not spare his own people,
of whom he says the noble characters
were extremely rare among the fighting
Boer. Stupidity, cowardice, lack of
discipline, faithlessness and abominable
treason we're to be met with among
them to an appalling degree. Had there
not been SO many traitors in their own
camp the Beers would never have been
so utterly defeated.
