To improve Any child's
APPETITE

A sluggish appetite means a slug
gish colon. Correct this condition
called stasis, and see how quickly a
listless, dropping boy or girl begins
to eat-and gain! The only "medi-
cine" such children need Is pure,
unauthorized fig syrup.
California syrup Of figs is doing
wonderful things for ailing, sickly
children all over the United States.
If your baby, boy or girl is bilious
--pale-faced and dull-eyed from
constipation-breath bad mornings,
tongue coated all the time-don't
give cathartics that weaken twenty
feet Of bowels! Instead, a little
syrup Of figs that doesn't disturb
either stomach or bowels, but does
act on the lower colon-where the
trouble lies.
Nature never has made a finer
laxative for children; they all love
the wholesome, fruity, flavor of the
real California syrup of figs. It's
purely vegetable, but every druggist
has it all bottled, with directions.
Begin with it at once. Your child
will soon be eating better and feel
ing better. Keep on with the syrup
Of figs few days and see amazing
Improvement in appetite, color,
weight, and spirits.
Children who get syrup Of figs,
now and then, keep well and avoid
colds.

~ kept the Fourth Of July
II Thanksgiving is the most dis
~ tinctively American of all our
national holidays. 1t has not always
been held SO late In the year, nor has
it always been held everywhere at the
same time. Originating in New Eng
land, it was not observed throughout
the country until after the Civil war,
when the Presidents, as well as the
governors of states. began to issue
Thanksgiving pr0clamations. Thus 1t
has become symbol of national unity.
The custom of celebrating Thanks
giving day did not originate with the
Pilgrims, though they introduced 1t
into this country. For seven days
when the harvest was over the He
brews of the Old Testament held their
Feast of Tabernacles, a sort of camp
lng-out time In memory of their period
of wandering in the wilderness. In
October the Greeks celebrated at
Athens their "Thesmophoria." in hon.
or of Demeter, the goddess of agricul-
ture. It was a festival that began with
Z religious rites performed by married
women only, and that ended with a
general banquet and dancing. On Oc-
tober the Romans kept similar fes-
tiyal that they called "Cerealia" in
honor of Ceres, their goddess of the
harvest. Indeed there is in almost
every European nation tradition of
feast TO mark the end of the garner
ing of the crops. In Old England it
was called Harvest Home" and came
down from the Saxon period; in Scot
land it was "Kern"-a word that
means the last sheaf. The Dutch of
Leyden. where the Pilgrims spent ten
years before they came to New Eng
land. celebrated on October every
year festival to give thanks for their
delivery from the Spaniards In 1874

married life she saw that 1t was this
penurious trait of hers that had been
accountable for most of the trials that
had beset their path. Coming from q
home where every penny counted, she
had found 1t hard to spend two dollars

skimped enough. John had tried to
reason it out with her many times,
explaining to her that he would be
the last man in the world to urge her
to live beyond their means. but, since
they were in position to do so with
out endangering their future, he would
like to live better than they did. There

often reasoned, couldn't they enjoy a
good show or dinner when they felt
like it?

that had come to her. Janet saw that
she had been unjust to Arthur. 1t was

Thanksgiving itself If one could afford
it, but Janet insisted that a chicken
would do them just as we'll: whats
the use of spending ten dollars or
more for dinner when we can get
one that will do just as well for less
than five?" she had argued, and finally
Arthur let her have her way, but he
paused long enough at the door when
leaving to call back: Looks as If we
could live like real folks on Thanks
giving day AT least"
After he had gone Janet sat in deep
thought--his parting remark had stung
her deeply. How could he talk like
that after all she had done-all the
sacrifices that she had made so that
things would be easier for him In the
future! Then it suddenly dawned up
on her that a great many Of the w0r-
ries that had annoyed and upset them
Of late were mostly of her making.

that gnaw and eat away the roots of

JOHANNESBURG is celebrated In
memory Of the day when the
u friendly Narraganset Indians
saw the Gnewcoming farmers of old
England In need, because their Euro
pean cereals failed to grow on the

grapes; all considered sacred gifts of
the Great Spirit to the soil of Amer
lea, says DR.. Erl Bates, advisor in In
dian extension at the New York state
college of agriculture.
However. he says, this was not the
FIRST Thanksgiving. The rite was born
as early man sought out his relation
ship to his creator and wondered at
the mystery, of the seasons. This be-
game associated with mystery and an
element of fear; and to explain this,
priests soon developed ceremonial.

Since it is the chrysanthemum sea-
son-this hardy flower defying the
frost-the chrysanthemum is the
Thanksgiving flower. That is quite
as it should be. Thanksgiving is a
hardy holiday as well as a hearty one.
