The Example,.
The Roman Cerealia.

With the idea Of returning thanks
for q bounteous harvest the warlike
Romans set apart some days In the
autumn Of each year for what they
termed the Cerealia in honor Of the
goddess Ceres. This observance is
said to he us ancient as the reign Of

From information obtained at the
office of the board of state assessors 1t
is learned that the valuation of Main,
will show an increase this year OF not
less than $4,000, 900 and that the in
crease in valuation the past two years
will be approximately s25, 1000, 900.
Concerning the live stock of the state II
was stated that present indications show
. falling off. One reason for the de-
crease in young cattle is that on account
of the high price of meat we'll fatted
calf six weeks old is worth as much as a
yearling, and consequently they are be-
ing put upon the market instead of be-
ing raised. The increase in valuation is
due largely to the development OF the
various industries.-Turf, Farm and

In the time of Grecian prosperity

feast very much resembling that Of
the Jews and supposedly borrowed
from the latter. 1t was called the
feast of Demeter or the Eleusinian

of the cornfields, by whose especial
favor only good harvests might be
expected. The celebration continued
during niue days, and offerings to the
goddess were made. consisting Of obla.

TRAMPs' THANKSGIVING.
How New York's Hoboes Get Their
Holiday Dinners.

A great deal depends OH the kind of
man who wishes to take part In the
feasting, wrote the late Josiah Flint
In Good Housekeeping. A panhan'
dler from the Bowery will have u
harder time finding his Thanksgiving
dinner than will well dressed hobo
from the west. In general, the pam
handler has to remain content with
the same simple fare on holidays that
he Is accustomed to the year through
The we'll dressed ard skilled beggar.
OIL the other hand, expects and looks
for delicacies on fete days, He may
have to look long while before he
finds all that he thinks he Is entitled
to, but the genuine seeker persevercs
until he believes that he has cele
brated the day as man Of his parts
should.
The favorite procedure for Il great
many roadsters Is first to beg for
money with which to buy the mate
rials for feast and then to cook the
meal themselves ut some improvised
camp or "hangout." This is the great
delight Of number Of western tramps.
Some days before the holiday Is due
they begin to save up their spare pen
MES for the coming gorge" or "scoff."
as It is also called. Perhaps there is
a party Of them together, and they
combine their forces and funds.
Many Of them can cook fairly well.
and all lend some assistance In pre-
pairing the meal. One attends to car
rying the water, another arranges the
different purchases so that they can
be handily reached. while others as
sist in making the fire and attending
to the actual cooking. The men who
are not chefs sit around the fire. smack
their lips and swap stories about the
places they were In the year before.
Perhaps some man will be reminded
Of having been In Jail the year before.
He tells about the poor feed" that he
received and how he scolded against
fate and the law for having shut him
up on such an occasion. Another man
will remember how he was In the fur
west where there was no meal nj nil
Still another will recall how he thought
Of reforming and had practically made
up his mind to 60 to work when some
housewife tempted him with fine
Thanksgiving "set down." and his good
resolutions went to pieces.
The Example.
Mr.. Pitt-The United States sets an
example to Europe every Thanksgiv-
Ing day.
Mr.. Penn-That's true. They don't
have Thanksgiving days IN Europe.
but then they haven't 50 much to he
