A Past Thanksgiving

1t was November %, 1852. Thanks
giving was drawing near, and it was
for this glorious holiday that the
Frasar family was getting prepared.
The two youngsters, together with
their parents, were to visit grandma
and enjoy real old-fashioned
Thanksgiving. For a few days the
children sat anxiously at the frozen
window pane, thinking over and over
again when the first dawn of the
blessed morning would come.
The day came. 1t was a glorious
morning. Though the Snow and ice
covered an immense part of the
wooded forests, the sun shone with
warm rays on the Icy, sparkling
ing, in which the Frasars lived stood
Dolly, harnessed to a sled, the pet
horse of the little ones. At o'clock
the jolly group left home, happy and
contented. The road which lead to
grandmas house was merely path
winding through large, dark forests
The ride was pleasant and the air
was fresh and delightful AS the
horse logged ON, stopping now and
then at intervals, the scenery was
most beautiful and picturesque On
either side of the narrow, windy
paths were dense forests, looking
bare at this season and clad only
with graceful boughs or limbs, stand
ing erect with admiration Now and
then a sudden sigh would interrupt
the chattering Group, who were DOW

somewhat fatigued of the long and.
perhaps, now tiresome journey. Later
on in the day grandma's house was
seen in the distance and the young
sters sighed with relief The cold
figures now advanced to the door,
where gentle, old woman met and
greeted the seldom visitors. In less
than half an hour the children were
seated comfortably around the large
open fireplace, until dinner was
served. In the dining-room, on a
rusty. old table, surrounded by a
number of chairs Of the same make
were delicious sweets, a tender tur-
key, cranberries. pumpkin pie and
other foods that make a real Thanks
giving dinner
Happy was the hour when the
happy relatives were sitting and eat
ing leisurely in that old-fashioned
room on the day of November &c, 1892.
We celebrate Thanksgiving in more
up-to-date way, but still fond men,
cries exist from our forefa hers real,
old-fashioned THANKSGIVING Day.

Lawyers are under a sinister sway

many ways, the seers warn.
This is a most unfavorable rule for

The planets indicate a return TO Sc

College and high schools should

young men and women who are des-

Frank and Kathryn were waiting
for him and he was taken up to his
room, where he changed his mind
about the place being so dreary, be-

turn around he had to step out ia the

As the next day was Thanksgiving,
some of the guests had arrived, and

was rather confused, because he did
not know anyone hardly, but the
pretty hostess had reserved a chair
next to her for him and he was soon
at his ease.
Now Eli knew that Mr.. Hooper dis
liked him, and the harder he tried to
please the old gentleman the more
in Dutch he became. He had pocket
fui of cigars, and never thinking that
a friend had given him three two-cent
stinkers and he had heedlessly stuck
them in his cigar-case, he picked a
cigar at random and handed it to the
father of Kathryn, with the calm
words, Have smoke"
Hooper took the stogie and lit il.

IT Is an suspicious time for all at

AS Christmas present for the nation the rail-
roads are planning hoist in passenger fares.
Instead of coaxing many persons to travel more
frequently as would be the if rates lowered
hey think it wise to reduce the volume of traffic by
making it more difficult for the average person to
travel.
This plan will have to be approved by the inter
state commerce commission before it get by. The
railroads say the commission has invited them to
raise fares This is not exact. The commission said
that if the railroads income too low they should
not tryto put all the burden Of increasing them on
freight rates.
The commission also suggested various means by
which the railroads could increase their income
without charging more for carrying either passen-
gers or freight
The railroads have not acted upon all Of the COM
missions suggestions. They still trying to coin

If the fare raise goes through and you have to pay
from dime to So extra on every railroad ticket you
buy, ask yourself what will happen You will travel
less, won't youf
In that event you will lose and the railroads will
lose and not.a soul on earth will be'the gamer.
Our railroads ought to be serving the public.
They never will, adequately, until the public owns
them.
