Divorce rates have dropped more

DR.. Scheele said the death

In spite of complaints from

have on its outside where a
nosey neighbor might spot it
colored stripe revealing your
1854 income bracket.
To speed handling of returns,
Internal Revenue has put a

pears on the envelope of forms
going to $40, ,000-plus individuals.
Several other colors are to dis

Officials said there wasn't time

Additional Births.
A continuing rise in the births
of third, fourth and fifth chill
dren was probably responsible
for the birth increases in 1853
and 1854. No increase in births
of first children was expected
because of falling marriage rates

There is legend about the origin of Thanks
giving Day which has it that originally the Pill
their sins and someone suggested instead that it
be devoted to giving thanks to God for their many
blessings What set out to be bellyache was
turned into joyful event.
The legend at least reflects life There is the
Hasdc story of the Jew who came to the rebbe
complaining of his own plight and wanting to
know how it was possible to praise God for all
for the evil as we'll as the good.
The rebbe scratched his chin. "Tll tell you
what" he said, you go and see Zosu. He has had
so many troubles, you can't count them He will
tell you how"
So the Jew goes to Zosus house He finds him
sitting on rocking chair. "1ll tell you why have
come" said the troubled Jew 'The rebbe told me
that you have had troubles galore and so you
would be able to tell me how it is possible to
praise the Lord for the evil as well the good
Zosu didn't even know about his troubles. It's
all in the view point.
People may be thankful for strange reasons

Israel j. Zeven hunchback, who worked on the
old Tageblatt One morning he came into the office
