FORSPOOkS,GOBL|NS
Halloween Franks Planned
for Eve of All Saints
Day
CHURCH OBSERVES
FESTIVAL FRIDAY

Tomorrow is All-Saints' Day, a time
OF special religious rejoicing In remem-
brance OF those members Of the human
race who. because OF the goodness and
holiness OF their earthly lives. have
been given the title Of Saints by the
church. There will be masses in all the
Catholic churches, as it is a holy day
OF obligation, and special services in
the Episcopal churches. Today is a
fast day for Catholics, but meat is per
mitted at meals tomorrow because the
Friday fast is set aside for the feast OF
All-Saints.
Today is Halloween, name which is
easily explained. In old English. the
Saints were called "Hallows,n which
means Holy ones" All Saints Day was
called All Hallows Day. In church
phraseology. the day before a feast is
known as the "eve" or even" Of that
feast. Christmas Eve is familiar TO
everyone. Therefore, we have All Hal
lows Even. which has become short
ened into Halloween.
The tradition that the spirits Of the
dead can haunt earthly scenes on the
night Of Halloween is very ancient.
From this tradition all the ghostly, and
supernatural ways Of celebrating the
day have gradually arisen. on this one
night spirits, fairies and goblins are
supposed TO play pranks on humans,
and the veil OF the future is lifted for
those who would know what fate has In
store for them. Nowadays. people keep
up the old customs without the belief
in supernatural yisitations on this
witching night. Most Of the familiar
Halloween stunts come from Scotland.
Because OF the recent influenza cpl
temic, the customary public celebration
tonight has been banned by the au-
lhorities. There will be no parade OF
mummers down town.
Many Of the children will dress in
fantastic costume 10 make their friends
think the spooks are around, and pri-
vate parties will make merry with ap-
pies, nuts and Halloween favors.

DURING
THE
EPIDEMIC
Don't Take Any Chances

Don't take any chances. II you de-
tect the first stages OF a cold, and feel
creepy and chilly and a soreness
throughout the body, with sneezing and
coughing perhaps. either consult a doc
tor or set full size bottle Of CHASCO-
YIN, a Tasteless Cod Liver and Iron
Tonic and take it regularly after each
meal and at bedtime. If you do this
you will almost surely escape a case
OF Spanish Influenza. But do act quickly
for your own sake.
CHASCO-VlN is just the medicine for
sll run down conditions and a splendid
reconstructive tonic for those who are
recovering from Pneumonia, Grip or
any other serious illness.
You can get CHASCO-VIN in VIII
mington at the Miller Drug Store-i0i-
i06 Market street.

BIBLE WITHIN REACH OF ALL

The Bible Is the most valuable and
the cheapest book In the world. It's
value we all acknowledge, but did you
know that you could buy complete
Bible of 1000 double pages for 30
cents In Germany and II cents In Eng
land and the United States? And
copies Of the New Testament are sold
In England for penny apiece!
In the thirteenth century a fine Eng

At that time the wages Of a laborer
were nine pence a week. So to buy
Bible he must save his entire In

OF course he didn't. He went to the
churches where the precious volume
was chained to the desk to keep 1t
safe, and there he read the exciting
Old Testament stories or the beautl-
full Gospels. or more likely listened to
reader who was better educated
than he.
In those days the Bible was val
liable in every way. Today a work
man may buy the New Testament by
walking home one night instead Of
taking the car, or giving up the potato
he had planned for his dinner.-From

First AppendlcitIs Operation,

There was time when appendi-
citls was quite fashionable disease.
In some parts Of Europe is was known
as the American disease" The first
operation for appendicitis was per-
formed at st. Luke's hospital, Denver,
Colo, in January, 1885. A young wom-
an residing In Davenport, Ia, had the
distinction of being the first person to
have the troublesome vermlform ap-
pendlx removed. The operation, neces-
sarily, was in the nature Of an ex-
pertinent, and the patient was so in
formed, but she pluckily declared her
willingness to submit to the knife as a
last resort. It was not until about two
years later that another operation Of
this kind was performed. Since then
thousands Of such operations have
been performed In every hospital 10

New York-Women are of many
minds concerning clothes. Some insist
that they will have everything made In
the house, giving the seamstresses o
chance to live; that they will study
the best fashions for insplrational
work In their own sewing rooms.
Others insist that they will spend
this spring altering clothes that are al
most as good as new. while others sa,

therefore, to preach the same sermon

several thousands Of women are de-
batting. with intelligence and with
stimulating effort at sacrifice, this
question Of spring costumery; but, as
far as the prophet can see into the
future. business will not suffer by this
discussion.
There will be hundreds of gowns re.
modelled In the sewing rooms of
homes; there will be thousands OF
gowns bought for less than $50 by
women who once paid over 500 for
them; there will be revival of In.
.dividual work on clothes, and less will
be left to the shops and the dress
makers; but there is enough money in
this country and sufficient need and
desire for spending to have everyone
made easy and comfortable.
As for the business Of altering
clothes at home. words Of wisdom and
kindness should be said in favor of It.
Much can be done to augment a ward

ways remain the necessity for one new
costume, NO matter how earnest
worker the sewing woman may be.
It will not be an easy season for
her who contemplates transforming
her old clothes into new ones. At first
glance she may think that things have
remained much as they were, but as
the season advances she will find that
the changes have been drastic.
