Day Of Returning Thanks.

History records many instances OF
national thanksgivings. Royal procla,
nations have been issued again and
again in the Old World, calling upon
the people to give thanks for tAe is
sue of great battles. TIE Deums have
been chanted in splendid cathedrals
at the birth of princes, the coronation
of kings and the triumphal return of
great generals. But the appointment
of a day in the annual calendar In
which the people are called together
for the express purpose of giving
thanks to God for the blessings. civil
and religious. national and domestic,
with which he had crowned the year,
is unique in history. The appointment
was first made by men who were
proverbially frugal in their designa-
ton of holidays, but who were pro-
foundly conscious of their dependence
upon God. Thanksgiving Day was an
expression OF that sense of depend
ence, and glad recognition Of the
Divine goodness.-Baptist Union.

suMPTuoUs REPAsT OF
HALF A CENTURY AGO.
Tastes Of Our Ancestors Seem 10
Have Been for Heavy Dishes
and Many of Them.

At Thanksgiving time so much is
heard of old-fashioned dinners that it
may be interesting to readers to hear
what the term signified In Philadel-
phla some years ago.
About SO years ago large dinner
was very different to what 1t is now.
In the first place courses, such as we
know them. were practically unknown:
even In the wealthiest houses there
was rarely anything but soup proceed
ing the actual dinner, but this soup
was generally very rich.
Such a dinner consisted about as
follows: First handsome silver-cov-
cred soup tureen was placed on the
table, filled with mock turtle or per-
haps venison soup, and all were
plentifully helped, the great silver
ladle, corresponding to the tureen,
doing good service. After the soup
plates were removed great roast
turkey decked with celery and cram
berries and marvelously trussed and
dressed was placed at one end of tho
table while at the other was large
piece of la mode beef on a platter.
Roast duck and apple sauce some
times took the place of la mode
beef but the two ends of the table
had always their respective meats or
poultry. Sweet and white potatoes
and every sort of vegetable to be had
obtained a place on the festive board,
while cunning molds of cranberries
and jellies and gravies. pickles and
the like were in abundance.
There was generally what was
known as an oyster pie"-stewed
oysters served in puff-paste shell.
the rich dressing of the oysters be-
ing made thick with egg.
There was no salad course, but Of
desserts there was no dearth. Pump
kin pie, mince pie, and always Won
derfully constructed meringue ard
either jelly or custard, sometimes
both, served in glasses, while plates
and nutcrackers were handed around
for the nuts.
The centerpiece was invariably a
great pyramid of fruits arranged on
a cut-glass or Dresden china epergne,
and, when the table was very long,
there were sometimes two Of these
fruit pyramids.
A little later, after the guests had
adjourned to the drawing-room, coffee,
ices and fancy cakes were served to
them there. There were no little
after-dinner coffee cups in those days,
but generous breakfast sizes of finest
French eggshell china, often exquisite
ly handpainted with landscapes or
picked out in gold.
When there was large party OF
young people, a separate table was
set for them in the small library,
which In those days, was generally
built back of the dining-room, the
latter being in the back building of
the second floor, corresponding to the
library or sitting room of to-day.
The back parlor" was used only as
such then or as breakfast room, the
state dining-room being invariably
upstairs, and sometimes there was
not even a dumb-waiter to assist lin
carrying things up from the kitchen
below, so that large dinner was no
easy matter to serve in those days Of
large families and lavish hospitality.

"Moek Turkey" for Thanksgiving.

A novel suggestion for Thanksgiv-
ing party is a "Mock Turkey" One
was made last year by taking a knit
ting basket and covering it with
brown holland. The handle of the
basket ran lengthwise, thus serving
as an excellent breast bone for the
turkey. The brown holland was
artistically adjusted to simulate legs,
wings and neck. 1t was then tinted
to the requisite shades by the liberal
use of burnt umber paint. The stuff
fing of this turkey consisted of trifiing
gifts, accompanied with appropriate
rhymes. The carving" of the turkey
was attended with much pleasant ex-
element. The operation consisted in
making strenuous preparations for it,
then suddenly with dextrous move
ment of the fork, lifting the entire
"skin." laying bare the interesting
"stuffing."

All Can Be Thankful.

In spite Of the sorrows of life the
young and old all have something to
be thankful for. Indeed, Jeremy Tay.
lor held that 'the privative blessings
the blessings of Immunity, safe
guard, liberty and integrity-which
we enjoy, deserve the thanksgiving OF
whole life" Each family knows
what 1t should be thankful for at the
present moment, and the spirit of the
day will lead them to remember it,
and by remembering 1t they are made
better morally and spiritually.

Hayberrles for Thanksgiving Candles

Bayberries for Thanksgiving Candles.
The revival of many an old time in
dustry has brought into vogue the
bayberry candle, beloved of our grand
mothers. and here and there along
country byways men and women may
now be found garnering the aromatic
berries. which some enterprising wom-
an has engaged to make into candles,
says the Providence Daily Journal.
1t requires quart of berries to
make one candle. They should be
kept in a, dry place till ready to use,
then put into preserve kettle, allow
ing two quarts of water to one of
berries. They should be boiled for
four hours, filling up the kettle with
hot water as 1t boils away. Then set
1t back where 1t will simmer a while
and at night set away to cool. In the
morning the wax will have formed in
a large cake on top of the water, and
after melting and straining throusl a
piece OF fine lawn or cheesecloth 1t is
ready to pour into the candle molds.
These candles give out sweet, aro-
matte odor. which perfumes the room.
