T h e M o h a mmedans among us have their Ramadan, and even the Chi nese have their feast days, which they observe in their own peculiar manner. Each religion has its own, but- there is one Thanksgivhig day for all, when all, of whatever faith, can, in their own way, call on God and praise Je sus or Mohammed or Buddha. Nov. 18, 1787, was our first national Thanksgiving day, ordained by the act of the Continental congress and pro claimed by George Watshington. The(.% day was set alititi. in the words of tile resolution, to expressi gratitude that God had been pliased to "smile o 11s in thle prosecul lt of a just. aid 11(bolsary war for tie deense and estabIishment of our 11una lenab1ie right Is anu1d liberty." The contiItuiion had Just. been adopt td, and ijefore tie net settig tside this Lialy of thanksgiving had been 1111111ly issed. there had been not a little dis mission inl congress about tle propriety Of thle president's asiking people to give thanks for a constitution for which some of then were not thankful. it was later that the last Thursday li November came to he the day iosen, when no marked event Indi enied another day, and the Uanks of the nation, united under the constitu tion, were expressed on Nov. 28, 1789. Since that day tile custom has never been omitted entirely, although uintil the civil war it Was only occasionally observed except in New England. It wits our (ivil war which brought tI peopl to a1 new sense of national ieness, and since 1863 (lie president of the United States has annually is alued a pi)oelata1tiont of thanksgiving.

Poem of Gratitude of Long Ago L ORD, thou hast given me a cell Wherein to dwell, A little house whose humble roof is weather proof, Under the sparres of which I lie Both soft and drie,. Where thou, mu chamber for to ward, Ilast set a guard Of harmless thoughts to watch and keep Me while I sleep. Low is mu porch, as is mu fate, Both void of state, And uet the threshold of mu doore Is worne bu the poore, Who thither come and freelu get Good words or meat. --Robert Horrick. ELAGRA'S CAUSE ANP REMEDY FOUND Balanced Diet the Cure. Says Dem,,. onstrations Prove Diseaise Is Caused by Wrong Systeii of I)letIing. Washington, Novei bcr I I.--I)iscov cry of the cause and cure for pellagra was announiced formally tonight by the public health serviec. The an nouncement follows the recent publica tion of a report by Surgeon General *oseph Goldberger on a year of ex teriients in co-operation witi South ern States health oIlleers, demtonst rat ing the corre-et ies; (if tile theory that a onerided diet lackinl- in iprlot(is would caluse the disewe and that a well balaiced diot would cure it. "The spread of this dread aly, whict has been incireasing In tle 'nited States at a terrillic rate duiiring the past fe' years, may now be checked, anid eventually eradilcated," .ays the service statement. "It is es timated that 75,000 cases of the dis ease will have occurred In the United States in 1915, and of this number at least 7,500 will have died before the end of tle year. In many sections only tuberculosis and pneumonia exceed it as a cause of death." The final dietary tests made by Surgeon Goldberger and Assistant Sur geon G. A. Wheeler at lie farm of the Mississippi penitentiary, where half a dozen of eleven convicts were given pellagra by feeding them for five months on bountiful meals, consisting chiefly of cereals and sweets and lack Ing in meats, minlk, eggs, beans and peas.

The ex perimenters have therefore drawn the conclusion that. pellagra has been caused in at least six of eleven voluti teel-s as a result of the one-sided diet onl which they subsisted. "On the basis of this discovery the States of Mississipii, Louisiana and plorlda iave laid their propaganda through their repective boa rds of healtl for the eradication of the dis ease."
