DIDN'T OBSERVE NEW YEARS
Puritans Regarded the Celebration as
Heathenish and Un-Chrlstian
Rite.

The sole record of the observance
of the New Year by the Pilgrims in
the new world, named New England,
was most prosaic, most brief: 1--WE
went to work betimes." Many of the
good Puritan ministers thought the
celebration or even notice of the day
in any way savored of improper and
un-Christian reverence for the heath
en- god, Janus. Yet these English set
tiers came from a land where New
Years eve and New Years day were
second in Importance and domestic
observance only to Christmas.
Throughout every English county
New Years eve was always celebrat-
ed; in many it was called by the
pretty name of Singing Zen, from the
custom which obtained of singing the
last of the Christmas carols at that
time.

Some New Year DOn'ts

Don't sprinkle salt on the tail of tempta-
ton.
Don't try to get the better of man who
hasn't any.
Don't snore in church. It's mean to keep
others awake.
Don't be satisfied to pay as you 90.
Save enough to get back.
Don't get married with the sole idea
that misery loves company.
Don't follow the beaten track unless
you are satisfied to remain beaten.
Don't accept advice from man who
never offers you anything else.
Don't expect Opportunity to come to you
with letter of introduction.
Don't trust to luck. Nine-tenths of the
people in the world guess wrong.
Don't buy your friends. They never last
as long as those you make yourself.
Don't envy the rise of others. Many a
man who gets to the top is mere froth.
Don't greet Misfortune with a smile
unless you are prepared for one-sided
Irritation.
Don't make good resolutions unless you
constantly carry repair kit with you.
Don't place too much confidence in ap-
pearances. Many a man with red nose
is white all the way through.
Don't forget in times of peace to pre-
pare for war. That's about the only use
some of US seem to have for peace.
Don't fail to have an object in view.

ence that he could fire at random without
hitting it.-Lippincotts

regulate the financial operations by
which the railroads are henceforth to
be supplied with the money they need
for their proper development to meet
the rapidly growing requirements or

cannot postpone action in this matter
without leaving the railroads exposed
to many serious handicaps and haz-
ards and the prosperity Of the rail
roads and the prosperity Of the coun-
try are inseparably connected. Upon
this question those who are chiefly
responsible for the actual manage
ment and operation Of the railroads
have spoken very plainly and very
earnestly, with a purpose we ought to
be quick to accept 1t. 1t will be one step
and a very important one, toward the
necessary separation OF the business

transportation.
The business Of the country awaits

Definition Now Possible.
Surely we are sufficiently familiar
with the actual processes and meth
DDS Of monopoly and OF the many
hurtful restraints of trade to make
definition possible, at any rate up to
the limits of what experience has dis
closed. These practices, being now
abundantly disclosed. can be explic-
lily and item by item. forbidden by
statute in such terms as will prac-
tically eliminate uncertainty, the law
itself and the penalty being made
equally plain.
And the business men of the
country desire something more than
that the menace OF legal process in
these matters be made explicit and in
telligible. They desire the advice. the
definite guidance and information
which can be supplied by an admin
istrative body, an interstate trade
commission.
The opinion of the country would
instantly approve of such a commits
sion. IL would not wish to see II emI
powered to make terms with monop-
oily or in any sort TO assume control
of business, as IL the government
made itself responsible. II demands
such a commission only as an indis-
pensible instrument of information
and publicity, as a clearing house for
the facts by which both the public
mind and the managers of great bust
ness undertakings should be guided.
and as an fundamentally for doing
justice to business where the process
es Of the courts or the natural forces
of correction outside the courts are
inadequate to adjust the remedy to
the wrong in a way that will meet all
the equities and circumstances Of the

aids in the transformation OF Russia.
Before the emancipation of the serfs
the land around village was held in
nually divided the fields among the
families Of the village for the purpose
Of cultivation. With the products Of
this cultivation each family must sup
port itself Under the present sys-
TEN communal ownership has been
theoretically abolished but, in the
more remote districts, not practically.
Communal cultivation still. in many
places, exists. In the villages of north
ern and central Russia the whole OF
the female population and about one
half of the male inhabitants are habit
ually occupied in cultivating the COM
munal land or. the land allotted to
them. The arabic part Of this land is
divided into three large fields. each
Of which is cut up into long, narrow
strips. The first field is reserved for
the winter grain-rye, which in black
bread, uninviting in appearance, but
neither unwholesome nor unpalatable,
forms the principal food of the rural
population. In the second field is
raised oats for the horses and buck
wheat for food of the men and women.
The third lies fallow and is used in
summer as pasturage for the cattle.
The value OF rotation of crops has
been long known and practiced in
Russia. The tri-ennial system is very
simple. The field which is used this
year for raising winter grain will be
used next year for raising summer
grain and in the following year it will
lie fallow. Every family in, the two
fields which it has under cultivation
has one or moro OF the long, narrow
strips or belts into which they are
divided.
Serfdom VS.. Freedom.
The change going on from the se-f-
labor system to free labor situation
may be compared, to certain extent,

many years in Russia, "such as the
carting of the masters grain to mar
ket, the preparing of his firewood, sup
plying Of him with eggs, chickens,
homemade linen and the like-they
had, on the other hand, a great many
ill-defined privileges. They grazed
their cattle during part of the year
on the manor land; they received fire.
wood and logs for their huts; and, in
times of famine, they could look to
their master for support. Now all this
is changed. The serf must buy every
thing he uses. Besides this, from an
economic point OF view, village life
has been revolutionized Formerly
the members Of a peasant family OBJ
tanned from their ordinary domestic
resources nearly all they required
Their domestic animals were bred at
home and their agricultural imple-
ments manufactured at home, except
where iron was required. Little money
was in use or needed. Very different
is the present condition. Home indus
tries have been killed by the big fac
tories and everything must be
bought"
But with the change has come
freedom. The Russian peasant,
bowed with the weight and woe OF
centuries" is beginning to stand erect.
The peasantry is passing through a
period of transition. The peasant is
learning the use of liberty and, though
slowly, is improving the conditions of
the village, which, in Russia, means
rural life. The farm adviser, who is
here unfortunately too much of bu-
reaucrat, is helping the peasant to
help himself. The adviser is generally
employed by a large landed proprietor
who wishes to obtain greater returns
from his land, but in certain parts of
Russia the local governments have set
farm advisers successfully to work

While the establishment OF factories

Dor, the Russia of today Is and, doubt

efforts to increase the agricultural

land of autocracy. These villages or
provincial assemblies - Zemstvos--in
some districts have established depots
