The changing attitude OF the Amer
tcan is shown In his increasing will
imgness to have Thanksgiving come
around every few weeks and his re-
iuctancc TO have fast day Up In
New England even. where fast day
was as regular as feed day. 1t became
in the last few years an occasion for
military reviews and trenen's parades
and picnics and doings like that rather
than for prayer and modification OF
the flesh and the devil. It's n long
time since the church bells have rung
the people together to sustain one an.
other through a day Of short rations.
Why, do you know. there are Amer
leans who cnn eat at Delmonlco's ev-

have turkey at every meal! Compare

Buckingham went to Newgate. cx

out Of the necessity imposed by the

He had hoped to induce Brandon to
leave London stcnitiiiy and immediate

Eens and the king. liable to grow out
OF his release. and relied on Brnndon's
generosity to help him out. but when
he found the note which Mary's page
had delivered to the keeper Of Ncwgate
he read II. and all his plans were
changed.
He caused the keeper to send the
note to the king. suppressing the fac,
that he. Buo bingham. had any know
edge Of It The duke then at once
started TO Greenwich. where he ar
rived and sought the king a few min

senger with Mary's note would come
The king was soon found, and Buck
ingham. In apparent anger. told him
that the city authorities refused to de-
liver Brandon except upon an order un
der the kings seal.
Henry and Buckingham were in
tensely Indignant at the conduct Of
the scurvy burghers. and an immense
amount of self Importance was dis.
played and shamefully wasted. This
manifestation was at its highest when
the messenger from Ncwgate arrived
with Mary's poor little note as intend
ed by the duke.
The note was handed to Henry. who
read aloud n follows: sI
To Master Charles Brandon. greeting,
Soon you Will be at liberty. perhaps ere
this ls to your hand. Surely would l not
leave you long In prison. go to Windsor
at once. there to live In tho hope that
may see you speedily. NARY.

death! My Lord OF Buckingham. the
suspicious you whispered In my ear
may have some truth. We will let this
fellow remain In Newgnte and allow
our good people OF London to take
their own course with him.
Buckingham went to Windsor next
day and told Mary that arrangements
had been made the night before for
Brandon's escape and that he had
heard that Brandon had left for New
Spain.
Mary thanked the duke. but had no
smiles for any one. Her supply was
exhausted.
She remained at Windsor nursing
her love for the sake OF the very pain
It brought her and dreading the battle
for more ,ian life itself which she
knew she should soon be called upon to
fight.
At times she would fall Into one OF
her old fits OF anger because Brandon
had not come to see her before be left.

She gave the smile. and as he left

eyes and thought. After all. he has a

She breathed a sigh Of relief. too. for
she felt she had accomplished Bran
don's release and still retained her dan
gerous secret. the divulging of whic:,
she feared would harden Henrys heart
against her Establishments and strand
her upon the throne of France.
But she was not entirely satisfied
with the arrangement. She knew thai
her obligation to Brandon was such ns
to demand of her that she should not
leave the matter Of his release to any
other person, much less to an enemy
such az buckingham. Yet the cost OF
his freedom by a direct act Of her own
would bo so great that she was tempt

made the sacrifice willingly or would

but the other way. the one she had tax

and. though net entirely satisfying. she
could not see how II could miscarry.
Buckingham was notably jealous OF
his knightly word. and she had un
bounded faith in her influence over
him. In short. like many another per
son, she was as wrong as possible Just
at the time when she thought she was
entirely right. ard when the cost of
mistake was at Its maximum.
She recoiled also from the thought
Of Brandon's "escape." and II hurt her
that he should be a fugitive from the
justice that should reward him. yet
she quieted these disturbing sugges.
tons with the thought that II would
be only for n short time. and Brandon.
she knew. would be only too glad to
make the sacrifice II II purchased for
her freedom from the worse than dam.
nation that Iurked In the French mar
rtage.
All this ran quickly through Mary's
mind and brought relief. but II did not
cure the uneasy sense. weighing like
lead upon her heart. that she should
take no chance with this mans life and
should put no further weight of sacri-
nce upon him, but should go to the
king and tell him straightforward
story, let II burt where 1t would. With
little meditation. however, came
thought which decided the question and
absolutely made every thing bright
again for her, so great was her capn-
billty for distilling light. She would
go at once TO Windsor with Jane and
would dispatch note to Brandon nj
Ncwgate telling him upon his escnpe
to come to her. He might remain IN
hiding In the neighborhood OF wind

1860, 6K billions in 1870, 7s4 billions in
1880 and IL billions in 1890. 1t will be
seen from this that the internal COM
merce seems to have increased so per
cent in the decade from 1890 to 1900.
the year 1850. During the same period,
and is ten times as large in 1902 as in
from 1850 to 1902, the population has
increased from % millions to rs mil
lions, and is therefore only 31s times
as great as in 1850, while the internal
commerce is ten times as great as at
that time.
This relative gain of internal COM
merce over population is due in part
to the greatly increased facilities for
transportation, the cheapening of cost
of articles utilized and the increased
earnings and increased wealth Of the
people. The railroads have increased
from 1921 miles in 1850 to 201, 1888 miles
in 1902, and the estimated wealth of
the country from $71S5, 7S0, 900 in 1850
to 1914 1900, vJ0, 900 in 1900, a per capita
increase of from $30S in 1850 to $1,236
in 1900. This increase in wealth has
been accompanied by an increase in
deposits in banks, those in savings
banks alone increasing from SAB, 4S1,-
100 in 1901 to 1857 O94,5SO in 1901,
Meantime the foreign commerce has
made rapid increase, though not at a
rate of speed proportionate to that of
internal commerce. The imports Of
1850 were $173, 5O9,526, those of 1902.
$903, 32O,94S. The exports Of 1850 were
$144,975,726, in 1902, 1881, 712,4O1.
While it is not practicable to measure
the internal commerce of other coun-
tries with the same accurancy as that
of the United States it is known that
in agricultural products, manufactures
and minerals the United States now
outranks the other nations Of the
world and that the transactions in
these products which form the inter-
nal commerce may therefore be assum-
ed to surpass those Of any other coun-
try. The manufacturers Of the United
States are now about double those Of
the United Kingdom and nearly equal
to those of France, Germany and Rus
STA combined, while the value of the
agricultural products of the United
States far exceeds that Of any single
States far exceeds that Of any other
single country.
