Will Aid Land Seekers,


Land seekers in all the public lands
states will be helped materially in
their efforts to get homes by an order
just issued by, Commissioner Rich
ards, of the general land Office, says
a press dispatch from Washington.
He has directed the local officers in
every land district to post all cancel
lations of entries, for the information
of the public and in order that the To-
cal newspapers may have them for
publication, should they care to do
SO.
The publication of this order was
brought about by Congressman Kin.
caid of Nebraska, who called the com
missioner's attention to complaints
made by some of his constituents that
they were unable to get information
as to tracts made subject to entry by
reason of cancellation of former en-.
try. In some instances choice farm.
ing tracts are thus made available for
settlers through various causes. The
entryman might offer insufficient
proof, or abandon his land, and the
local officers in the usual course oil
business would cancel the entry.
Under the new order prospective
entrymen can ascertain just what
tracts in any particular district be:
come vacant and again subject to en-.
try in this way.

cellars. When the plot was reevaled
by treachery the members of the plot
ting group were. in the pleasant manner
of the day, hanged, drawn and quar-
tered, Fawkes being the last to die.
Parliament then decreed that the 9Th
of November should ever after be kept
as day of thanksgiving. because il
was on the 9TH that the powder was to
have been exploded.
1t was the custom to build bonfres.
to ring bells, to toot horns and especial
ly to rig up a fantastic figure in gay
rags and hang it as an efigy of Fawkes.
This was paraded through the streets
and consumed. after it had been hung
up and well pelted, in the evening bon
fire. In time the custom was added of
selecting a party of young people to
dress in ridiculous disguises to personate
Fawkes, Rookwood, Winter and the
other cOnspiratOrs.
Fawkes day has almost died out of
observance in England. 1t is curious
that its customs should live in this coun-
try by the mere accident that two ma
tional holidays come at about the same
time.

on the document is the great seal of the

clerk OF pardons and commissions, and it
is very carefully guarded under lock and

THANKSGIVING FANTASIES.

A Survival of the Guy Fawkes Day OF
Old England.
Those who are not satisfied unless
everything is explained have puzzled not
a little over the growing custom of cele-
brating Thanksgiving day by parades
of curiously clad boys and girls, toot-
ing horns and accosting passersby.
The theory most favored is that the
custom is a survival of the English an
nual rejoicings over Guy Fawkes day.
This is the explanation adopted by
Prof. Brander Matthews and other
scholars.
Guy Fawkes lived in the last years
of the sixteenth century and gained fame
by being the best known member of a
conspiracy which was formed to blow
up the houses of parliament by firing
nine, barrels of gunpOwder hidden in the

treaty. which was held in 1874, the day
was allowed to lapse until 17S9, when
Washington took his seat as President.
The idea in these early days was to offer
thanks on some special occasion. That
our ancestors could find eight such occa-
sions during the dark days of the Revolu-
ton shows that they were ready to be
thankful on somewhat slim provocation.
But it also shows that the gobbers shed
their blood for the country as well as the
The new age., 1906-11-24

The real origin of Thanksgiving as a
day specially set apart for prayer and
rejoicing must be attributed to Gov. Brad
ford. the first Governor of Massachusetts,
colony. In gratitude for the plenteous
harvest in 1921, following upon a period
of great depression, he proclaimed day
of Thanksgiving to be observed on Dec. 13
(old style) Of that year Four men were
sent out in search of game. They returned
loaded down with wild turkeys. Thus did

The REASON WHY

S. Senator

The New Age has said before and it
now says again that it does not be-
Iieve that the next legislature will
elect J. Bourne, Jr., to the United
States senate. 1t has been said that
our opposition to MIR. Bourne is in
spired by prejudice, and that we can
give no good reason for opposing him
since he was regularly named by the
republican voters for the office.
We opposed Mr.. Bourne during the
primaries for the reason that we knew
him to be unfit for the high office to

Household Hints

To bleach a garment hang it on
the line during nice weather and let
it take dew and sunshine but no rain.
Broiled meats are more nourishing
than fried meats and roasted meats
yield more nourishment than broiled
ones.
eUtensils made of the popular alu-
minum must never be washed with
soda or their appearance will be hope
lessly ruined.
Have the shelves and floors of the
kitchen storeroom flashed at least
three times week with solution of
permanganate of potash.
Cranberries can be made very palat-
able with much less sugar by mixing
them with about half their bulk of
apples. Rub both cranberries and ap-
pies through a colander.
Wash japaned ware with sponge
dampened in warm water and dry it
Immediately with a soft cloth. Sweet
oil applied with woolen cloth will
remove obstinate spots.
It's an excellent idea to pass grated
American or Parmesan cheese with
tomato sauce which is to be used on
rice or macaroni or with such dishes
cooked with tomatoes. Not every one
likes the cheese mixture, but many
do. By serving the cheese separate
ly all are suited.
Boiled cabbage, in one family. is
served with an eg sauce, to which
Parmesan cheese has been added. The
sauce is turned over the cabbage af
ter it is put into the serving dish.

HOME LIFE

spect the secrets of your children, but
do not worry them to conffde in you.
Our life is determined for us-and
1t makes the mind very free when we
give up wishing, and only think of
bearing what is laid upon us, and
doing what is given us to da.
A Persian philosopher, being asked
by what method he had acquired so
much knowledge, replied: by not be-
ing prevented by shame from asking
questions respecting things of which

One of the means of avoiding un-
necessary misery and wretchedness is
to cultivate on all occasions the spirit
of hopefulness until it becomes a
CHARACTERISTIC, a habit, the cast of
mind. Tenacity, courage, a cheerful
and hopeful spirit even in the Diary
days distinguish the men of high
hearts and characters.
When the sun refuses to shine and
floods of trouble threaten, and the
future appears SO dark and SO forbid
ding, how like an angel does any NOR
tai become who will feel for the suf-
ferer and tell him so. Never is a
Christian more like Christ than when
he shows sentiments of friendship to-
ward those who have been wounded
amid the vcissitudes of life.-McCall's
