waiting Upon His Bride.

Two hundred years ago it was a Gus
tom very general in England for the
bridegroom to wait upon his bride on
their wedding day. The following ex-
tract from John Shebbeare's "Matri-
mony," a book published in the middle
Of the eighteenth century, testifes to
this and refers to the popular super
stition about it: The dinner being
served, Sir Oliver was the gayest man
in the company. The bridegroom and
bride sitting by the side Of each other,
the old gentleman observed: 'Ods-heart,
ods-heartl What, dine with the bride
the first day! A fine bridegroom; a
fine bridegroom! 1t was the fashion
when was married to stand behind
the brides chair with napkin and
serve her. Serve her today; she'll serve
you always after"

Velasquez recognized that light is
elastic and illuminates the air; hence
he was the first to discover a new kind
Of perspective. Men long ago had
learned to make lines vanish from the
eye, to make the figures diminish in
size and shape as they recede from the
front and to explain the distance by
contrasts Of light and shade. But he
discovered the perspective Of light
By the most delicate rendering Of the
quantity of light reflected from each
and every part Of the room and the
figures and objects in it he has given
to the latter the reality Of form and
to the room Its hollowness and dis
tance.-St. Nicholas.

A man living in a village near Luck
now is reported to have had an ex-
traordinary adventure in the jungle.
He had gone in search of two buffaloes
that had gone astray when he was at
tackled by tiger.
He was unarmed except for heavy
stick, with which he fought until over
come by loss Of blood, when he sank
unconscious. At this moment the two
buffaloes appeared. One Of them stood
over the wounded man, while the other
snorted and tossed his head
The man recovered consciousness and
staggered to his feet, when the tiger
made another spring at him. The beast
was, however, received on the horns of
one of the buffaloes and was so badly
wounded that it turned tail and skunk
away.-London Express.

New Caledonia.

Until 1853 New Caledonia was a sort
Of no mans land. Then both England
and France decided to annex It. and
orders came to two warships to proceed
thither at once. They started the same
day. The English captain had heard
Of the reefs that surround the island,
and he was cautious. The Frenchman
went ahead without regard for the
reefs. When the British captain ar
rived he saw the tricolor flying from a
hill, and he was invited to come in and
lunch on French soil.

Our Fire Department.
EDITOR CLARION

EDlIOR ALAhloN:--
Without a doubt Thurmont is rs well
equipped for fire protection as IS any town
of its size in the State but III my mind it is II
question whether or not we are sufficiently
familiar with the handling Of our apparatus
to do effective work in case OF fire.
OF curse we haye several citizens who
might be considered good fire fighters but
in the absence OF a regularly organized fire
company, would like to suggest that at
some time INT n date before slateN our APP
paratus be taken ont under the direction OF
the proper authority and connections made
to our fire hytranls just to famjliarize our
citizens with the handling Of the apparatus.
I would not suggest that II trial OF speed be
made but let every move be made slowly and
at the same time explained SO that every
person may understand.
1t is my opinion that in town OF this
size protected only 10y volunteer fire fighters,
it is the duty of every citizen to understand
the handling of the apparatus.

Thanksgiving Day PrOclana-

President Roosevelt on Thursday last is

Thursday, November 30th as day for
thanksgiving:
"a PROCLAMATION.
"When nearly three centuries ago the first
settlers came to the country which has now
become this g. cal republic, they confronted
no: only hardships and privation, but terri
BILE risks of their lives. In those grim years
the custom grew of setting apart one day in
each year for a special service Of thanksgiv-
ing to the Almighty for preserving the PEG
pie through the changing seasons. The custom
has now become national and halowed by
imnemorial usage.
1--WE live III easier and more plentiful times
than our forefathers. the men who with rug
ged strength faced the rugged days; and yet
the dangers to national life are rs great now
as at any previous time in our history. 1t
is eminently fitting that once u year our pcO
pie should set apart day for praise and
thanksgiving to the Oliver of good, and, at
the same time, that they express their thank
fulness for the abundant mercies received,
should manfully acknowledge their short
comings and pledge themselves solemnly ard
in good faith to strive to overcome them.
During the past year we have been bless
cd with bountful crops Our business pros
perity has been great. No other people has
eyer stood on as high level of material we'll
being as ours now stands. We are not
threatened by foes from without. The foes
from whom we should pray to he delivered
are our own passions, appetites and tollies;
and against these there ID always need that
we should war,
Therefore, now set apart Thursday, the
3Oth day of this November, as day of
thanksgiving for the past and of prayer for
the future, and on that day l ask that
throughout the land the people gather in
their homes and places of worship and, in
rendering thanks unto the Most High for the
manifold blessings for the past year, consc-
crate themselves to life of cleanliness. hon
