said to be the best sauce, and of that
Tony had plenty. He stripped tho
bones clean. More than that, he ate
the smaller ones, and wished-well I
am afraid he wished that he had grabbed
the other chicken for his breakfast.
His dinner eaten, he curled himself
up in a r of. the area and went to-
sleep-his unusually hearty meal had
made him sleepy, you see. And what
do you think vas the next thing ho
heard? Why, a sweet, girlish voice
saying, eagerly:
20 mamma! may I keep himp Z
want to so much" and he opened his
eyes to find himself held fast in a ten
der embrace, while two dark blue eyes
looked lovingly at Thin and beseechingly
at a lady standing by, who answered,
smilingly y:
very well, Nellie, keep him # you
like; he is probably a stray kitten"
From that time Tony's life was a very
happy one, and he never stole his
Thanksgiving dinner again. But where
do you suppose that cook thought the
chicken went to?-Ida z. Thurston, 49,

cluded Walter, with masculine SUPERB
orlty. 81 did not intend to speak until
the hour of dinner tomorrow, which
would become a true Thanksgiving
with the temperance of the family
plate"
II wonder you are not shamed of
yourself to play such tricks" retorted
Pamela, finding voice at last. $50 like
a thoughtiess man! 1 might be worn
gray and worried into a fever with such
nonsense. Pity you spoke at ALI"
Walters c~ountenance fell under this
vol!ey of feminine indignation, and
somehow the result seemed rather
lame.
"If l had not stolen that silver the
tramp might have got it," he reasoned.
Pamela dreamed that night Walter
was cook, in the white apron and cap
OF a French chef, preparing the famous
%Polynesian pudding, while Bridgetshad
given warning in consequence.
Next morning brought restored peace
and sunshine to Walter limbs interior.
Pamela's parents arrived at noon, and
OF all louisville the Thanksgiving din
ner served in the Gothic cottage was
the most enjoyable.
The restored family plate adorned tho
table, and Pamela's eyes sparkled when
they reverted to the treasure. Two
notable results became manifest; the
front.door of the Gothic cottage is al
ways kept locked, and Walter never at
temps to enforce martial authority

LADIES DRESSES.
Novelties in Black Wool, Black Poplin
and Other Materials.

0Au GHC IuaCcTlAlSs
The novelty in black wool dresses for
the street is the use of rough bisoncloth
trimmed with black yak (worsted)
lace, and these are made suitable for
young ladies by adding a vest of red
satin or of poppy red velvet pinked in
rows OF scalops, with also straight
wristbands of red velvet, and a sailor
tie of red satin to fasten the deep fichu-
cellar of yak lace. At the foot of the
skirt there may be q box-rleating of
black velvet lined with red satin, other
wise the stylish dress is of the rough
wool laid plainly over a foundation
skirt, with aprons drapery edged with
lace, and the position Of simple shape
has the red vest, etc., just described.
The yak piece lace is also used for
drapery, and for pulled cuffs that re-
semble under-sleeves.
Black poplin with red or golden
brown satin stripes is used for street
dresses. The stripes are pleated with
the color underneath for the skirt, and
the vest is formed of such stripes. An
other fancy is the used of red or gold
or mixed metal braids in bayadere
stripes across the front ard sides of
black poplin OF cloth dresses. These
braids are repeated on the vest, which
may be used in a basque or in a polo
naise. The polonaises of black cloth
dresses are Of very long and simple
shapes, sloping away on the sides to
show the skirt beneath, and draped very
fully behind, yetvery simply, as in some
cases two loops and two buttons'do the
entire draping. Black Astrakhan bor-
ders, either of the genuine fur or the
cloth imitation, are much used on these
black wool dresses, and are sometimes
in conjunction with silver. braid. More
elegant visiting and carriage dresses
are made of the black heavily repped
yet soft silks that resemble Irish pop
lin, and are called either Victorieuse
silks OF else Bengaline. This silk forms
the basque and the bouffant over-skirt,
with a lower skirt Of plain or figured
velvet, which is now laid in three panel
pleats in the front, and side pleats be-
hind. AS we have already noted, the
most elegant black velvet carriage cos
tunes have panels covered with en-
broidery done on the fabric, with plas-
irons Of thread lace, and usually some
let Ornaments.-HarDer'S Bazaar.

sPEcKLE,s THANKSGIVING.

Twas early in the morning
OF the glad Thanksgiving Day,
And the people on old g%randpa's farm
Were joyous, blithe n gay;
kor b dinner was preparing,
And the folks from out Of town
We're fastening home to help us eat
The turkey, crisp and brown
We children were exploring
The ~red-roOfed barn for eggs,
And climbing up to the rafters, with
N o fear of broken legs.
For the boys were bold and daring,
And the ~girls-were Tom-boys, too,
And the hens looked on in wild amaze,
And round about US few.
Said our youngest pet and darling:
I'm so glad I'm not Il hen;
For they don't have n Thankful day,
Nor dinners, nor"-just then
Uprose our gray old speckle
From her hidden nest near by,
And passed us with Il merry cluck,
And crested head on high;
While close behind her followed
The darlings Matched that day
Twelve dainty, downy, fluffy chicks,
Some yellow and some gray.
sCluck, cluck," said Mistress Speckle,
Here's one thankful hen, you see.
Who says this is not q glad
Thanksgiving Day for me?"

II may be picked out by calculating in
the following manners: I,
Add together the numbers in the al
phabet of the top letters of the columns
in question, A being the first letter, B
the: second, D the fourth, H the eighth
and T the sixteenth, and the sum viii
be the letter sought.
Fol example, take the word Jane.
Jane tells you that the first letter Of her
name is in two of the columns, the ono
beginning with B and that beginning
with Fl. Now, 3 is the second letter in
the alphabet and HI is the eighth letter,
as any one who can count knows. Add
two and eight and you have ten. The
tenth letter Of the alphabet is J.
In the same way James whole nams
can quickly be spelled out. The next
letter, A, appears in but one column.
N is in the columns headed B, D and H,
which are the second, fourth and eighth
letters of the alphabet. Being added
they give the fourteenth letter, or N.
And so the E is just as easily found
