Thanksgiving!
' Thoughts of thankfulness and gratitude are now uppermost in the minds of the people. The person who has firmly established the saving habit has much for which to be thankful. The test of a man's worth is what he does. There is dignity and joy in providing a fund for future requirements, or for those near and dear to you. An account hero is a faithful friend in time of need.

CASE ONE OF INTEREST.
THE TRIAL WAS A MOCK ONE,
HOWEVER, AND WAS HELD SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE QUAKER SCHOOL.
Some Richmond Amusement Company Stock Holders Said to Oppose It.
WINTERS ARE TOO MILD. STOCKHOLDERS IN THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION WHO OWN STOCK IN AMUSEMENT COMPANY WANT ONLY SKATING.
It is regarded as extremely doubtful, if the proposed plan of stock holders of the Richmond Amusement company to flood Athletic park this winter for ice skating, is carried into effect. The winters in this section of the country are not very severe and it is seldom that there is a long period of weather cold enough to permit ice skating. Stock holders who oppose
The students who are remaining at
Earlham College during the Thanksgiving vacation held a mock trial in
the dormitory Saturday evening. A
prominent young Earlham lass was
the plaintiff and brought a charge of
breach of promise against Ernest
Neave, a Junior in school. The super
intendent of the College, Alfred T.
Ware acted as Judge. The jury was composed of the students In residence at the dormitory. After many and
heated discussions between the lawyers, Chester Flaworth for the plain tiff and Vincent Nicholson for the dc fendant, the case was given over tr the jury. The judge instructed thf jury to bring in a verdict of guilty The jury retired for a time, and camin with a verdict of guilty and fixed the amount of damages to the youn woman's injured affections at thirt cents. Mr. Neave promptly paid tb young woman in question that amoun' and left the courtroom.

Famous Heating Place of the Great Dead of France. In the center of the most populous and hardest working part of Paris lies Pere-la-Chafse. the city of the dead. AH fetes of the faubourg beat against the walls of this spot, which has Its own fete twice a year. Within less than a century this cemetery has become the abode of at least 800.000 dead. It formerly formed a part of the domains of the bishopric of Paris under the name Champ Leveque. Under Louis XIV. it was known at Mont Louis. At last. May 21. 1804. the ofilcial opening of the new necropolis took place. The white mausoleums among the green trees remind the visitor of an oriental city, but It Is estimated that In twenty years there will not be space enouph for one lone dead man. A calculation has been made which would point to the fact that the sum of $80,000.000 Is represented in these last sleeping places of man. Even though the French may not always be grateful during the life of their Illustrious children, there is a mighty attempt after de."th to prove appreciation. Among the famous men who are today lying calm and beloved In rere-la-Chaise are Rossini, Bellini, Chopin, members of the famous Carnot family, Moliere, La Fontaine, Delacroix and Balzac. Here the tomb of Ileloise and Abelard is visited continually by large num
bers of pilgrims, and there is never an ' end to the sentiment around the Gothic I monument rising from the bright hued geraniums and roses. Notwithstanding the iron railing many a lover carries, from the hallowed spot a petal blown across by the obliging breeze. Except for one section, where a considerable number of artists and authors, brothers in beauty and Inspiration, are grouped, the tombs succeed each other without much order. There is a single monument erected by the state to the sol
diers killed in the siege of Farls..
fhe Etiquette of Eatlnsr In the Seventeenth Century. An account of hospitality in 1629 gives p good idea of the manner in which a country gentleman of the period lived. Dinner and supper were brought In by the servants with their hats on, a custom which Is corroborated by Fynes Moryson, who says that, being at a
knight's house who had many servants to attend him, they brought in the meats with their heads covered with
blue caps. After washing their hands
in a basin they sat down to dinner,
and Sir James Prlngle said grace. The
viands seemed to have been plentiful and excellent "big pottage, long kale.
bowe of white kale," which Is cabbage;
"brach soppe," powdered beef, roast
and boiled mutton, a venison pie In form of an egg, goqse. Then they had
cheese, cut and uncut, and apples. But
the close of the feast was the most
curious thing about It.
- The tablecloth was removed, and on
the table were put a "towel the whole
breadth of the table and half the length of it. a basin and ewer to wash, then a green carpet laid on. then one cup of beer set on the carpet, then a little long lawn servlter plaited over the corner of the table and a glass of hot water set down also on the table; then be there three boys to say grace the first, the thanksgiving; the second, the Pater Noster; the third, prayer for a blessing or God's church. The good man of the house, bis parents, kinfolk and the whole company then db drink hot waters, so at supper, then to bed, the collation which (is) a stoupe of all." Scottish Review.

BRAIN QUALITY.
Short Mourning;. A well known yachtsman was describing a winter he spent at Nice. "But the Nice beggars!" he said, laughing. "The splendid, sun drenched Promenade des Anglais, with its Ivory white villas on one side and the blue Mediterranean on the other, is always haunted with these beggars. "One of them accosted me one morning as I came out of the Cercle MedlTanee, a fashionable French club. " 'Monsieur,.' he said, 'one little sou, for the love of heaven. My poor wife Is starving. "'Why, look here,' said I, "only last
week I gave you some money to bury j
your wife, and now yon tell me that she is starving. How can that be? ''Bat. wonsiexir said the bfpsr, 'I have a new tvife now."
It If of Jaat aa Much Importance mi the Quantity. The brain of Daniel Webster weigh
ed Dfty-six orfifty-sevtu ouuee?, that of Napoleon Bonaparte about the same. This i3 about three pounds and a half. These were exceeded by the brain of Cuvier, the great French naturalist, which weighed between nfty-nlne and sixty ounces, and that of the French i surgeon Dupuytren, which weighed . fifty-eight ounces. The average weight of the brain of man is about
fifty ounces and of women fortyfive ounces. The maximum weight of the her.lthy adult brain is about sixtyfour ounces and the minimum thirtyone ounces. Men of great intellectual power have generally If not always possessed large brains. The quality of the brain Is, however, quite as important as the quantity, so that a large brain does Hot of necessity constitute a great man. The size of the brain Is not in proportion to the physical development of the body, either in animals or In man. The horse has a brain less in weight than the smallest adult human brain; that of a whale seventyfive feet long was found to weigh not quite twice as much as that of a man. Kven In men there Is no fixed relation between the size of the body and that rf the brain. A small man may have a lanre brain and a big sm a email
