ORDER OF PUBLICATION

Christine Alderman VS.. Charles w.
Alderman.
No. 3044 Equity. In the Circuit Court
for Garrett County, Maryland.
The object of this suit is to procure
plaintiff from the defendant.
The bill states:
1. That on April 10, 1923, she was
married to a certain Charles W. Ack-
erman, of Fayette county, Pennsylva-
MIA, with whom she lived as his wife
until April %, 1925, and again from
April, 1928, to July 4, 1928, during
which time they resided at the home
of your oratrix in Garrett county,
Maryland.
2. That, though the conduct of
your oratrix towards her husband, the
said Charles w. Alderman, has al
ways been kind, affectionate and
above reproach, the said Charles W.
Alderman has, without any just cause
or reason, abandoned and deserted
her, and has declared his intention to
live with her no longer, and such
abandonment has continued uninter-
ruptedly for at least three years and
is deliberate and final, and the sepa-
ration of the parties beyond any reas-
enable expectation of reconciliation.
3. That on the 3rd day of Deem
Der, 1929, a decree of divorce a mensa
ct thoro was granted to your oratrix
by this Honorable Court as against
the said Charles w. Alderman, the
same being No. 1904 Equity in this
Court, since which time your oratrix
has neither seen nor heard directly
from the said defendant.
a. That your oratrix and the said
defendant, Charles w. Alderman,
have had no children born to them
from said marriage.
5. That your oratrix resides in the
State of Maryland and the defendant
is a nonresident of the State of
Maryland, whose present place of res
idence is unknown to your oratrix,
but whose last known address was
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The bill then prays for divorce
vinculo matrimonii of the plaintiff
from the defendant, for general relief
and for an order of publication.
1T IS THEREUPON, This 18th day
of November, 1881, ordered by the
Circuit Court for Garrett County,
Maryland, in Equity, that the plaintiff
by causing copy of this order to be
inserted in some newspaper published
in Garrett County, Maryland, once in
each of four successive weeks before
the 18th day of December, 1881, CIV
ing notice to the said absent defendant
of the object and substance of this
bill, warning him to appear in this
Court, in person or by solicitor, on or
before the 28th day of December,
1881, to show cause, if any he has,
why decree should not be passed as
prayed.

A modern, transplanted to Puritan
New England, wouldn't give many
thanks over Thanksgiving day dinner.
He would find it pretty bad fare.
Cranberries were available in 1921,
and wild turkey-if the head of the
house was good marksman. There
were nut trees in the woods, and wild
grapes. But the stock of perishable
foOdstuffs was meagre. Probably grain
was to be had to supplement the small
supply of Indian corn, but butter, milk
and eggs were almost unheard of in
Plymouth $40 years ago Maybe they
had potatoes in 1921. but if they did
they came by ship.
A modern expert in nutrition, given
a Puritan Thanksgiving dinner to an
alyze, would have several c0nniption
fits. DR.. Walter Fl. Eddy points out
in Good Housekeeping that he would
find flew green vegetables, no milk,
high preponderance of protcins and
acid ash.
'WiId fruits may have helped to
avert scuryy," says Doctor Eddy, "but
this disease was always imminent in
the winter. and probably much of the
so-called winter rheumatisms were due
to scorbutic joints"
Pneumonia and what was called con-
sumption wiped out whole families in
old New England. Doctor Eddy points

Not All Americans Look on Day of Thanksgiving
With the Pessimistic Eyes Of Will Carleton

bread crumbs, favored with rosemary,
sage and mother of thyme, larded with
Virginia ham fat and basted with
Madeira wine; served with bogberry
sauce. fresh caulifiower and candied
sweet potatoes.
Old Virginia mince pie. served In
flames.
New Orleans old French market
coffee.
Mmm! Those were the good old
days! But, observes the Providence
Bulletin:
The special blessings for the sake of
which children and some adult persons
celebrate Thanksgiving day are transit
tory at best. They center round the
dinner table, "groaning with good
things" But even IL Will Carleton
thinks that most of US regard such
matters as these more seriously than
the finer and nobler teachings of the
day, surely many of US grace the occa-
sion with the spirit of gratitude for
our blessings" and endeavor to spread
this spirit by providing for the COM
fort and happiness of some less for
tunate household than ours at this one
festival of the year.
It is a familiar law of nature that
the more we give the more we have.
This may not be true of material pos
sessions, but 1t is certainly true of the
things of the spirit. If we increase
the sum total of others happiness we
increase our own.
Anyhow, here's hoping you get the
long end of the wish bone !-Pathflnd
