The Thar.klu! Thanksgiving. There are some pre.iy narratives of Hillman. There came a gentleman some time ago .'um Cincinnati. He had his mil lion*. Kate had otherwise dealt harsh ly with him. lli» bead fell upon his cheat; hia arme were «» limbs of the tree, and hud less motion in obedience to bis sill; hie leg* ware stilfff, h? could not raise his feet; pain did not dethrone reason, hut life, lived amid all that millions, could procure, was worse than death. Every spring and resert and pliya'- dan in two worlds had bee« tried— without relief. He heard of Hillman. There he was cured. He was there on Thanksgiving. Capt. Hunter had given permission to the plain country folk around to have a dance the hall. The mililonaire, erect and in health, determined that It should be a memorable Thanksgiving In Taliaferro. With two-hersa wagons he had the coutry scoured for turkey gobblers. The Ice cream churns were put to work. Every dancer, every vis itor had a whole turkey. The widow at the store on the road had a turkey end $lO. A poor woman at the forks of the road had a turkey and $5. The tables sunk under the weight of the Ices and the sweetmeats. The neigh boring country was searched that re joicing might reign that night. It was an offering from a grateful souice. IVoble Souls; Oood Folk. Opt. Hunter is an Alabamian. •How did you happen to locate here?” I askod him.

Britain and Ireland. Queen Victoria la ruler over 400.000,000 people, and on-j ly 35.104.975 of them dwell within lhe | confine# of the United Kingdom. In 1K97 the revenues of Great Britain and! her colonies were about sl. 126,000,000. | while the share raised in the Uniled ; Kingdom was only half that amount. England's Richest Colonies. India, Australia amt Canada are. of course, the richest of England's pos sessions. In the province* of India the. queen's realm extends over more than one and a half million squnro mile* of territory, and through her viceroy she rules 387,000,000 eole. The Canadian possessions cover 3,450,000 square miles, and the Canadian sub jects number nearly five and a half million souls. In Australia, the queen, has 3,500,000 loyal subjects. It is the largest Island in the world about 3,031,000 square miles equaliz ing in size the United Slates, including Alaska, and being twenty-six times as large aa tho little England that rules it. The rest ot Great Britain's coloniul possessions are not territorially so im portant. In the English Irish channels are the Isle of Man, Jersey ffnr! Gurnaey; In the Mbliterranean sea are Gibraltar and Maltese ancV Cy press Islands; in the Gulf of Aden is a group of dependencies; In the Indian Ocean are Ceylon and a few minor is lands; in Asia are India and the Straits Settlements; in the Asiatic archipela go are Hong Kong, North Borneo and Labuan island; in the Pacific the British flag floats over New Zealand and the Fijis; on ihe Ametican con tinent, besides Canada, Britain holds sway over Newfoundland, Guiana and Honduras; in the North and South At lantic are a dozen such islands as Ber muda, Bahama, Jamaica and Barba doee, and added to all these are the millions of miles of English territory, and the millions of British subjects in darkest Africa. The smallest of Eng land’s foreign possessions, but at the same time one of the most important, Is Gibraltar, which includes only one and nine-temths square miles, and is the home of 26.000 people. France Next to England Next to England, France holds the most important colonial possessions.

The African and Asiatic possessions of France are Ihe largest and most troublesome and would fully warrant the home govern ment in keeping n large standing army If the German frontier were thousands of miles away. Among the French- American possessions England now rules Canada wheru France was once supreme are Cayenne (where the pepper comes from), Quudaloitpe, Martinique, and Bt. Pierre and the Mi quelon islands. Germany's Possessions. Germany's colonies as compared with those of England are somewhat insignificant. They cover about 1.- 060,000 square miles, most of the terri tory being in Africa, anti not being mentioned often in the dispatches. In the Cameroons are 4,500,000 people ruled by the young war lord, and in German East A/rlca are four millions more. In the-'Pacific Germany holds the Bismarck and Marshall archipela go, Kaiser Wilhelm’s Land and the Solomon islands. Sptin’s Vanishing Colonies, Spain has more colonies now than she will have in a few weeks. The most, valuable of the islands over which onco floated the red and yellow stripes are the Philippines, Cuba and Porto Rico. The last named will be long to the United State*, Cuba will be free if it behaves itself, and (he Phil ippines may go with Porto Rico. They are Islands of richest production and they hold 7,000,000 people. Spain’s other coionial possessions are the Car oline, Palaos, Lulu and Marianne Is lands in the Asiatic, and Ifni, Fernan do Po, Elobc;/, Anabon, Carisco and Canary islands, and (lie Sahara coast. Java Is Holland’s Best Colony. Holland’s bast colonial possession ;s Java, that land of earthquake and cof fee, where 25,000,000 such simple peo ple as were seen on the Midway dur ing the World’s fair.

"What gives me most trouble,” said a foreign military attache, "Is trying to translate your American language Into English first and then Into my own lan guage, so as to give my government a correct understanding of the spirit and character of your soldiers. I find the phrase ’get there,’ for example, difficult. When I saw your Infantry going for ward against the opposing troops In the forts and intrenchmenls I said to the officer with me that the Infantry should not attempt such a movement without artillery. ‘You’re right,’ he told me, ‘but the boys will get there.’ “At night, when we were all so hun gry, I ventured to Inquire if a further movement were contemplated till your army was provisioned. Then the offi cers, who were gentlemanly, all laugh ed and said the army would think about rations when they ‘got there.’ Tho second day we met many of your wounded men coming hack as we were going forward. When the colonel ask ed them so many times about the fight ing so many times I hoard them say: ‘We got there.’ And afterwards also I heard those words very often. But It Is so difficult for me to explain so my own people will understand it. What nature of tactics is ‘gel there?’ ” _r CASTOR! A For Infants and Children.
