Halloween.
(By Mollie Madden.)


In ancient times, even before the
time of Christianity, the thirty-frst of
October was celebrated as All Saints
Day or Halloween and is celebrated
up to the present time.
Ever since this Christian festival has
been held, bon-fires have been lighted
and ghosts and witches always are
more apt to wander about on this night
than on any other night of the year.
1t is thought that the Druids held an
autumn festival about this time and
built great fires to the Sun-god while
offering him their thanks for the har-
vest. Then Saman, lord of death, call
ed out all the wicked spirits who had
been transformed into animals and
trees.
This time of the year is especially
known to the young folks as a night of
holiness and gaiety and this date was
chosen by the young people of Medieval
England, who originated the sport of
'apple-ducking as well as many other
harmless sports. The old superstitions
of Halloween have been handed down
to US from the old Scotch, Welsh and
English people who have observed
Hallowe'e en- for many years.

Commercial failures are more num-

of the country. As reported by R. G.
Dun & Co., there were 400 failures in
the week ending October q, 1915 as
against 187 in the corresponding week
of 1912, full protection period. There
was an increase of 49 over the failures
of the week ending October Is, 1915.
The increase over the corresponding
week ending October q, 1912, was
more than 113 per cent. But for the
business furnished by war orders there
is no telling how much bigger the COM

more than double 400 in a single week.

Right Kind of Revenue Tariff.

The Democrats claim they favor a
Tariff for revenue only" or, as they
say, ''just enough Tariff to run the
government" Then why don't they re-
wise their new Tariff law accordingly?
It hasproven wholly insufficient as a
revenue producer. Government re-
ceipts have run behind expenses several
million dollars a month ever since that
law went into effect. It has not raised
the revenue its authors expected of it.
Why not restore the sugar Tariff and
rates in a few other schedules and
stop the treasury leak? If the Demo-
Gratis really favor enough Tariff to
run the government" it is time for
them to prove it before the ship of
state gets any closer to the rocks. If
they are not obsessed with their fatu-
Gus Free-Trade theories, let them give
US revenue Tariff that will bring in
some revenue.-Louisiana (Mo.) News.
