Llncoln's Idea.

Thanksgiving day is the American
evolution of a long line of predeces-
sors, both pagan and Christian. II
dates as an annual national holiday
from the fall of 1868. In that year
President Lincoln sent a message to
congress recommending the observ.
ance of a national day of thanksgiv-
ing. not only on account of the vic
tories which had followed the Union
arms, but also for the harvest. Since
then the custom has taken deep root
in many parts of the United States
where it did not previously exist. Now
1t stands unique in history as a day on
which great nation Acknowledges the
continued prosperity which God has
been pleased to shower upon it.

VIM. J. BRYAN and John Lind ar

VIM. J. Bryan and John Lind are
two of kind on the question of
county option, and state papers are
already wondering what will happen
if the state Democracy takes Lind
at his word and makes county option
a plank in their platform for Lind to
stand on. Republican slate makers
would sure have to find out where
they were at.

WEDNESDAY, DEC. l, 1909.

The proposition to subscribe a fund
to aid deserving students in working
their way through college, and call
the fund the John A. Johnson en-
dowment, is generally hailed as a
step in the right direction. This
would beat stone image out of

DAILY DIET HINTS
BY DIR. I. j. ALLEN
Food Specialist.
SPRING FOOD.

Climate and season should
largely determine food selection.
A Cuban would not thrive on
an Eskimo's diet. Our summers
and winters diet should differ
materially. More fresh fruit
should be eaten in spring and
summer. The intake Of starch
should be reduced az the spring
opens, and meat, If used at all,
should be eaten sparingIy. Let
tuce, uncooked cabbage, celery,
and tomatoes, valued in the or
der named, can often be eaten
alone with advantage, when
there Is little appetite for heavy
food, especially by the nervous
woman and the school girl.
Cucumbers, uncooked and with
out vinegar, may also be eaten
as spring food medicine. The
best time to eat these Is in the
morning when heavy meal
should never be eaten In the
spring. Lemon juice may be
substituted for vinegar and olive
oil is not specially Incompatible
with green vegetables.

tant organs hinges good health? Many
an apparently strong, healthy man or wo-
man has been stricken without notice by
serious kidney and bladder disease only
to realize too late what might have been
prevented with proper care and atten
ton.
Some of the early symptoms of weak
kidneys and bladder are lumbago, rheum-
atism, catarrh OF the bladder, pain or
dull ache in the back, joints or muscles,

Washington Waits for
Detailed Information

WASHINGTON, Nov. A.-The Nicara-
guam situation today stood exactly where
it was last Sunday night, when Secretary
Knox stated that the department was
waiting for detailed information from
Managua before taking any further
steps. The vice consul at that capital,
Mr.. Caldera, is presumably working on
the case, but so far nothing has been
heard from him.
The department appreciates the TACT
that the vice consul is laboring at great
disadvantage and believes it to be more
than likely that every obstacle in the
way of obtaining exact information or
the circumstances connected with the ar
rest and the execution of the two Ameri-
cans is being put in his way. The de-
partment is especially anxious to obtain
full information as to the status of the
Americans when arrested, particularly as
to whether or not they were cooperating
with the revolutionist army.
A dispatch to the navy department to-
day announced the departure Of the Ia
coma from Cristobal for Port Limon,
Costa RIGA. The Marietta is on her way
from Guantanamo to Port Limon. 1t is
said by the naval authorities that these
vessels are going to Costa Rica for pur-
poses of surveying.

Nov. 10, via New Orleans, Nov. N-
Telegraphic advices received here today
from Managua are to the effect that il is
the belief in Nicaragua that the govern
ment authorities in Port Limon, Costa
RIGA, and former President Tafael lgle-
sias and his following had aided the Mic

SIX BURN TO DEATH
IN TENEMENTHOUSE
One Hundred Italians Sleeping II
House Intended for Only Four
Families-Gave Alarm by
Shooting Guns.

NEW YORK. Nov. 24-At least six per-
sons were burned to death and ten Sc
riously injured in fire which swept
through a tenement house in Havens
Mace, Brooklyn, before daylight today.
When the fire had been controlled a.
search of the house revealed six bodies,
most of. them burned beyond recognition.
They were those Of two women, one man
and children, the latter apparently be-
tween the ages of and years. Another
woman is missing and she may have been
consumed in the flames.
NEARLY 100 IN BUILDING.
The tenement. which was intended for
the use of only families was really oc-
eupied by families and most of these
had numerous boarders The police said
there were nearly 100 persons crowded In
the structure and asleep when the fire
broke out. All of them were Italians.
Instead of sending in a fire alarm, tho
first occupants to be aroused by the
flames began firing revolvers from the
windows and this added to the panic,
Starting in the cellar. the fire choked
the narrow stairways and before the fire.
men arrived a dozen persons had either
Ieaped from the windows or had jumped
to one-story extension in the rear
A woman who leaped from a second
story window is believed to have sustain
ed fatal injuries. Most of the others who
jumped were also injured.
WOMAN'S HEROISM FATAL.
The first firemen to arrive took out
scores of persons on ladders. Mrs. Rose
CaraviIla was carried down from her
second floor apartment and upon reach
ing the street, she broke away from the
firemen and dashed back into the smoke
and flame filled building to rescue her
two small children. She was not seen
alive again, but later her body and those
of her children were found.
Police reserves from several stations
were called to quell the panic which had
spread to neighboring tenements in this
foreign section of the city and much
trouble was experienced.
Ten of the injured were taken to hos
pitfalls where it was said several may die.
The police did not discover the cause Of
the fire
One of the exciting incidents occurred
when Mrs. Rose Monteforte, q years, ap-
peared at a third foor window with her
One-year baby in her arms. She remain
ed there calling for help until the window
showed red with flames, when she threw

A Health Guard

Is a great blessing in sickly season,
especially when such diseases as the grip,
pneumonia. and dypththeria, which are so
serious in themselves or their effects, are
going the rounds.
Hoods Sarsaparilla and Pills are the
best health guards, keeping up the purity
and abundance of the blood, the vigor
and tone Of all the organs and functions.
They are often the stitch in time that
saves nine. Take them for protection and
begin taking them now.

find Hoods Sarsaparilla excellent for
toning up the system. 1t keeps us we'll

like them.
