If we could say anything that would prove
more convincing (to those few who as rule do
not buy their Thanksgiving and Christmas
poultry of us) than give in figures our Thanks
giving record, we would be sure to do it, but
we cannot.
2IS,ooo pounds of poultry (nine-tenths of
il turkeys) is the quantity we handled III
Providence and Worcester Thanksgiving week
The number of complaints of unsatisfactory
turkeys were less than one for every thousand
sold and when one considers that considera-
bic proportion was sold as low as Is cents and
some even less, we think the record is re-
markabe.
The market business is our business and
we understand it, and, by the way, that makes
us smile when we read advertisements of
people both here and in Worcester intended
to make people suspicious lest turkeys offered
them at Thanksgiving or Christmas have been
frozen.
No one but novice in the business would
suggest that a market man OF experience would
offer frozen turkeys at Thanksgiving or Christ
mas We never have and as far we can
forecast the future, we never will.
Frozen turkeys cannot be sold proftably
except in the off season, that is TO say, between
April and October
OF course it should be borne in mind that
the same people who warn YOU against buying
frozen turkeys themselves sell them in the off
season if they sell any at all.
Delightful weather and store well filed
with Christmas goods at low prices should
make Christmas marketing pleasant. We most
earnestly request that you buy your dry fruits,
your groceries and your preserved goods now.
leaving only the turkey and other perishable
goods to- be bought the last OF the week 1t
will save YOU lots OF trouble and enable us to
serve you better.

This institution of the home has now be-
come such an integral part of our Christian
civilization that some may question the
possibility of any power uprooting it. But
it must be remembered that everything that
is good has to contend with antagonistic
evil, and that downward and backward to

the past furnishes examples of great de
clension. Therefore if there be such peril
Gus possibility and if it concerns the
country that each home be a world pro-
found, respected, communicating to its
members an ineffaceable moral imprint,
then it becomes the duty of all guardians of
the home to strike at every peril and to
strengthen every pillar which in one case
threatens its existence and in the other up
holds its domestic unity, integrity and sane
tity. Not to do this is to be self-registered
an enemy to private and to public good.
Times may change, customs may vary,

and where the first lessons with lifelong
influence are taught in the great matters of
morals, aesthetics, social laws, politics, pa
triotism and religion. Here also the holy
ministry of mercy finds its first and fairest
field: To practice the principle Pope has
expressed, THAT mercy | to others show
that mercy show to me" we first learn how
at home, where forgiveness and forbearalice
taught as requisites for peace and as
principles of right. The tiny bruised finger
held up to be kissed is not only healed by
mothers lips, but sobbing heart is soothed
and the great lesson of compassionate ten
derness is taught. Here also standards are
first set. ideals first formed and ambitions
first fired. To tenderly bear and to gra-
ciously forbear. to manfully strive and to
worthily endure, to be meek and yet cour-
ageous, to require justice and to be mag
unanimous, are principles of the highest or
der when wrought out in the experiences in
cident to the regular order of life, with its
associations and its Undergraduates But
it is the home life that first instils them.
From the helpessness of infancy to the
frailty of age the home stands as one of the
greatest and best forces that touches human
life and makes for all that is good and
noble in man. And when times winter

CHOOSING WALL PAPER FOR NERVES

bling jumping-jack design.
Nervous people can also dispense with
all decorations and con6ne themselves to a
paper of uniform coloring.
Red is more irritating to the nerves than
any other color. 1t is, however, excellent
for people who lack courage or confidence
in themselves.
Dirty browns and drabs are exceedingly
depressing to a sensitive spirit, while a
good, clear, rich brown will be found
quieting and soothing to the much harassed
man or woman.
Sage green, not too dark, is said to be
excellent for nervous people.
A very depressed person will find in a
room papered in a clear but not too vivid
yellow exhilaration and self-conhdeuce
Too much white in light room over
steps the bounds of cheerfuness and gives
a glaring and comfortless look
Sickly people will respond to pink, which
is the astral color, indicating health.
Violet and all lavender shades are to be
discouraged when used on the walls, as,
together with black, they invite depression
of spirits.
Blue, in the paler shades, is soothing and
delightful to the eye.
Perpendicular lines running up and down
the wall will often help TO upraise person
physically and mentally bowed down with
burdens and worries.

In papering your rooms don't forget that
what we all need and see is more light.
A light wall paper need not be an aniline-
colored affair that glares at you from every
point of the WALL but a paper that casts
soft reflection and helps to show off both
objects and people in the most satisfactory
light.
No matter how small the room or how
unattractive it seems at first, when papered
in harmonious or exhiarating color t
will be transformed into a cheerful little
nest; but the most palatial chamber draped
in brocade of the wrong hue will finally
get on ones sensibilities. For this reason
prevalent gilt and crimson are exciting, par
ticularly when brilliantly lighted.

entering the home blasts and rends and
skaters to pieces its holy memories, its sa-
cred joys, its hopeful prospects. and inficts
irreparable damage to the children born
into it and the social life of which it was
a part.
Space allows but word to indicate some
pillars sustaining the home. First of all
is its divine constitution. The church of
Christ, that holds up its purity and pleads
for its unity, is a strong pillar. The Bible,
that shows the divine law, and the Sabbath,
that affords spiritual privileges, are pillars
also. The literature that advocates its value
and contends for its sacredncss. together
with every example of its simplicity. love
and unity where "dear relations mingle into
bliss" are pillars of that institution for

furniture, clothes and complexion
Then the racking problem of selecting
just the right color toe cover your walls
with. After all is over, your house once
more set to rights, new paper on the wall,
new rugs on the floor, enter your friend
who dabbles in what she says is the science
OF color and who politely tells you that
your newly selected wall paper is entirely
wrong in shade and does not harmonize
with your personality and will not prove
beneficial to you in the long run, says a
writer in the New York World.
Of course the coloring on our walls af-
fects us to a certain degree, and we are all
conscious of it, but we seldom take it Sc
riously if the color is pretty one and the
design on the paper not too obstreperous.
Only the most sensitive mortals have ever
noticed the baneful or good effects of GER
tain tints on themselves and on their friends
and have made study of colors applied to
the home walls.
1t goes without saying that the most rest
full wall paper is of one tint without any
pattern.
People who lack concentration should
avoid rooms covered with anything resem-
