A Rural Retreat for BrOken.DOw
Printers.

The public has heard of homes for desti-
tute poets, homes for broken-down actors,
homes for superannuated clergymen,
homes for unsuccessful literary men, but a
home for printers il has been reserved for
Mr.J. Cooley of Middle Hill Farm, North
Franklin, Conn.,, out of a warm heart and
an abundance of brotherly love. 10 devise.
But why not a home for printers as well
as for the poet and the author whose work
they immortaiize? For if authorship be
immortality, the printer is the artisan of
immortality. But of the merits of the
plan there can be no two opinions. Let us
see what are its practical details. Mr..
Cooley has farm of 100 acres, well stocked,
and herewith a commodious dwelling
house and appurtenances situated at Mid
die Hill. North Franklin. Conn. This he
proposes to dedicate to the uses of a prin-
ters' home. lie intends thereby TO pro-
vide way for the self-support of about 80
persons. He does not mean the home as a
ioafing place for the idle, nor hospital for
those who are already sick. but as an OPP
portuMty where peaceful home in grow
ing age and falling strength may be en-
loyed at the price of moderate labor. Nor

POETRY.
November.
BY MARY r. DAVIS.

The winds are wild, the leaves are sere,
And dead flowers drape the passing year,
The glistening fields have turned to gray,
Glad harvest-songs have died away.
And DER the earth and e'erthe sea
A wall resoundeth mournfully
From bleak November.
Alene wander through the wood,
Where summer flowers IN beauty stood.
Where green leaves in the breezes danced,
And music all my being tranced,
From irds whose bright wings nevermOre
Will fit across the lonely shore
OF sad November.
And still wanief; but tone
Then family heard, now clearer grown
The breathing Of q still small voice,
Bidding my Utmost soul rejoice,
Steals softly up from earth and stream,
and like roseate, happy dream,
Is dark November.
A sacred Presence fills the wood
The Soul OF Love, the Heart of Good;
Ana through the lon1 autumnal day
The Power that knoweth no decay
has hid the lie of coming Spring
Beneath the warm and sheltering wing
of blest November.
Thus may my soul, 0 Good Supreme!
Be filled wit hThy celestial CLEAN;
Then, when the autumn winds shall come
Which watt me near and nearer Home,
The germs OF truth and holy love
Will be enshrined for bowers above
By life's November.

Thanksgiving was not much of day in
the Poor House. The old women did no.
knit, and those who were able usually went
to meeting, and sat in the gallery, and they
all had a sumptuous dinner OF boiled beef and
Indian pudding. Naturally there was not
much excitement among the recipients of all
this bounty. But the excitement of that par
ocular Thanksgiving day began in the morn.
ing, when the handsome sleigh and prancing
horses of Lawyer Anthony stopped at the
door, and he and his wife and another lady
came into the house and asked for all the
family.
They came ina miserable group (don't
ask me to paint them land seated them
selves timidIy around the edge of the room.
The lady rose to speak, and then for the
first time they knew her. Happiness Lad
rolled the weight CT years off from her. and
save for the silver hair that showed under
her modes. bonnet, and the faded gray ewes
with the heart broken look in them, they
would hardly have known her. She was
neatly clothed in black dress OF some soft
material, and the old shawl was replaced by a
comfortable cloak.
'Dear friends" she began, but broke
down, sank into a chair ard raised her hand
to Mr. Anthony. who took her place, and
made the remarks she had planned to make
herself. He tod them of her good fortune.
he invited, in her name, her old friend Sally
Wilder TO come and pass the rest of her DAYS
with her, in her own old home. which her
husband had bought when she was bride
and which she had now brought hack He
also in her name, invited the youna GIRL
Lofty, to come and live with her two old
friends. And he asked the whole family TO
take Thanksgiving dinner with her that yetv
day.
Long before he had finished Lofty was on
her knees before her cid friepds, and Sally
but, dear me, l never can tell how people
feel. How would you feel in Sally's place.
OF course they all went to the dinner, es-
pecially as Mr. Anthony sent bis sleigh three
times to carry the old folks and little children
over. And of course they had a splendid
dinner, since Mrs. Anthony gave up her own
Thanksgiving dinner to make this a perfect
success. 1t was not the poor house style eth
er, but, commencing in the regular way with
oyster soup, proceeding, according to the
tlme-honored ways OF our ancestors-th through
roast turkeys al d chicken pies, fanked by all
possible vegetables, and winding ND with ire
