The story of Arthur Gibson of Man
chester, N. H, who, while hunting
deer in Essex was supposed to have
been accidentally shot and then lost
in the forest, turns out to be a fake.
The yarn was invented by Gibson
himself. The story that he had been
discovered wounded iii the hip by
Walter Webster Of Charlotte, who had
trudged to the nearest farm for help,
started the whole countryside to
searching for the supposed victim.
The hunt occupied Friday afternoon
until dark and part of Saturday with
out result. Webster said he had new
er heard Of Gibson, who left that re-
gion after seeing how his hoax
worked.

Not Essentially American.

Our American Thanksgiving Is usual
ly considered our one native contribu
ton to the holidays Of nations, as its
observance originated with the New
England fathers. Perhaps the fathers
themselves liked to think of it in this
originative way and so wished it per
petuated-as something that had flow
cred on the bleak rock Of their per-
sonal struggle. 1t was to be peculiar
ly their day, peculiarly a heroic New
England day, an American day. So in
a sense it is; so in a sense it is not.
Essentially our American Thanksgiv-
ing is least American of our holidays,
for the simple reason that it is too
human to be merely American. There
were no most human things left for
the New England fathers to originate.
They are immemorially older than this
| country. There are no original ways
| Of expressing gratitude All the path
ways of thanksgiving are very old
paths.-James Lane Allen in Munsey's
Magazine.

Ninth Chapter of Azariah.

CA Bible parody on the election,
contributed by Perry Miles of Iras-
burg.)
And it came to pass that there was
strife in the land. For he who ruled
among them was full of wise counsel
and did as the Lord would have him
in all things.
And his doings pleased not the Re
publicans and sinners, and they took
counsel among them how they might
away with him.
And there arose up one among
them whose teeth were marvellous to
behold for they were as gates of
ivory, even as great gates set in a
hedgerow, and he spake unto the
people after this manner saying, Now
if it be that We will hearken and give
ear unto me, to do all my bidding
and hearken unto my counsel, being
faithful in all things, then shall it be
well with you for | will lead you and
We shall be more than conquerors in
all things.
And the people were rejoiced at
his sayings. And they said with one
accord, Is not this he who aforetime
ruled over us and afterward So
journed in dark land and returned
even as mighty hunter and
a nimrod before the Lord, who
tameth the Bull Moose and rideth up
on him. Yea and the wielder of a
big stick, and remaineth an Oyster
Bay-ite even unto this day. And he
spake yet again unto them, saying,
I will lead you against your adver-
saries, and We shall utterly overcome
them, that there shall be no more a
place found for them. And the peo-
pie were de-elighted in all that he
said. And it came to pass that the
time drew near that the people would
cast lots for to see whom they would
have to rule over them. And they
cast their lots in diverse places, even
in many provinces and among all ma
tons and tongues, and the choice of
the Pharisees, Sadducees, Republicans
! and sinners fell upon one Charlie E..
whose surname was Hughes.
And all the people had waited for g
space that they highest know Of al
that was accomplished by the cast
ing of the lots, and when messeng gers
began to arrive it would seem that
the lot went full sore against the
faithful and all those who walked
after the Lord, to keep his statutes
And it was unto them even as the
taking of aloes and tar and when the
eleventh hour had come and the PEG
pie were about to put dust on thei
heads and to mourn full sore in sack
cloth and ashes;
Behold there appeared unto then
| one OF fair cOuntenance and of goodl,
apparel.
And he spoke unto them, saying
Why is your countenance fallen, be o
good cheer, for the Lord, even tn
Lord of Hosts, hath heard your or,
and seen fit to deliver you out of tn
hands of your enemies, even out O.
the mouth of the dragon and to Civ
unto you again even him who nov
ruleth over you with justice and equi
ty, and his rule shall be for a seaso
and a time, even by the space O
four years.
And the people rejoiced greatl
and cried with a loud voice, saying
All glory and honor be unto the Lor
for his mercy endureth forever.

Fell from Loft,

How a Man Who Landed on Wood
pile and Was Sore from Head
to Foot Found Quick
Relief.

Once upon time Edwin Putnam,
who lives in the quiet, pretty hamlet
of Wendell Depot, Mass, climbed up
into loft to get some building ma
terial, just as many another man liv-
ing in the country must often do.
Suddenly he slipped and fell. Ten
feet below was pile of wood, knot
ted and gnarled. 1t was nasty tum-
BILE and Mr.. Putnam was painfully in
jured in the back, he was covered with
bruises, and was sore from head to
foot.
The next day he bought a bottle of
Sloan's Liniment, which had been
recommended to him. Within a very
few hours the soreness had vanished
and the lameness had disappeared
He was an active man once more.
Sloan's Liniment can be obtained
at all drug stores, Csc, SOC, and $1.00

- CELEBRATION of Thanksgiving
day seems to center around the
- dinner table. What a glorious

n udy SooI1S W CcIIIcI dIOuuu luC
- dinner table. What a glorious
sight it is on this purely Amer
lean holiday to see the members of the
family from far and near reunite on
this occasion!
AS the early celebrations were neces-
sarily simple, it is more in keeping
with the event to include in the menu
dishes suggestive Of those partaken of
in olden times. If you have any old
dishes or pewter ware use them on
this day.
AS the family group includes both
old and young plan your entertainment
so as to be equally enjoyable for all
ages. If cost is a consideration you
can make your table appear very at
tractive by keeping in mind the old
fashioned and hearty simplicity of by
gone days.
| For a table that is very appropriate
for an ''only family" reunion a founce
Of decorative Grape paper showing
country scene with his majesty the
turkey strutting about is attached to
! the table cover by means of a rope of
/ twisted paper in autumn colOring Of
| red and yellow. Place a fruit basket in
the center Of the table. Seasonable
| vegetables may also be combined with
| the fruit with very good effect.
! If you do not possess an artistic bas-
ket you can make quaint shaped ones
! by covering matboard with twisted
| green or brown rope Grape paper and
FASTING one row after another to the
basket shape.
The candle shades are covered in
| grape designed Grape paper with a
fringe Of green fringed paper. The lit
! tie ice cups can be made similar to the
big basket and are trimmed with small
clusters of grapes.
Artificial bOnbOn cups are similar in
design to the ice cups with small COB
blers pasted on the sides. The turkeys
which ornament the place cards can be
painted on cardboard Or cut out of a
paper napkin and mounted on the card
| board. If you secure small pictures
Of your guests they could find their
places in that manner
A vegetable beaStie for each place is
easily made. Carrots, radishes, pota-
toes OR any vegetable may be used.
You can make the legs Of matches and
| the eyes of beads. Around the neck
tie a card with a merry jingle written
on it expressing a sentiment why you
are thankful that each guest is present
and welcome.
Raisin men with marshmallow hats
favors for the table.
If you are planning games for after
the feast much sport can be derived
out Of old time amusements of Thanks
giving character. An old fashioned
taffy pull would give pleasure to those
of different ages. Or have a contest to
see who can string the longest chain
of cranberries within a stated time.
Another clever way to decorate q
table is to have centerpiece Of wheat
standing in the center of the table
Around the wheat could be scattered
grains of corn; little PAPER mache
turkeys could be placed as if they were
eating the corn.
Spinning wheels cut out of cardboard
could be at each place. Names SHOULD
be written in old English.
AS the Indians figured so conspicu
ously in the early Thanksgiving days
how would it be to have the waitress
dressed as an Indian squawAPitts

DR.. Dippy Makes Hit
at the Hippodrome

The audience at the Hippodrone al
most went dippy from laughing at Or.
Dippy's Busy Day." which was the Of
fering at that show house yesterday.
The company Is holding up its repu-
tatton established the first two days
OF the week of having one of the best
shows that has hit Fairmont for some
time.
The dancing exhibition which made
such a great hit the first two days
of the week was not on last night. The
offering is good enough as 1T stands,
but perhaps the manager of the. COM
pany is open to suggestions. There
fore, we offer the thought that the two
very capable dancing stars Of the COM
pany be permitted to do some sort OF
q little stunt every performance. II
is seldom one sees as high class tall
emit in musical tabloid, and the man
agement should not underestimate a
good thing.

when he stopped a show after one per-

up to the right standard, for he mas

is packing the house at every show.
The Darling Daisies company which
opened at the Colonial yesterday with
"Ado1ph and Rudolph, in London, Is

chorus is clever, the costumes bright
and. clean, the singing is as good as
the average and the two German COM
edians bring laugh after laugh: They
pull some really new Jokes and the old
ones a-e served in a new style, which
makes their efforts quite acceptable.
It does one good to see talented COM
edians in action, after watching the
average funny men of tabloid.
There are several special oane1ng
and singing numbers which took the
audience by storm last night. The
soubrctte and the manager OF the Lon
don hotel do a neat little singing and
dancing sketch, while each member
OF the chorus sings a special eong. All
