THANKSGIVING Day.

What glorious day it is, to be sure,
all over the land The scent Of pies and
puddings pervado even the outer atmos-
phere, while indoors the air is fairly
thick with the fragrance. Here's rich
ness, sure enough. Peep into the pan
try. DO you see the pies2 There is
every species and variety one could name
delicate squash, favored with sprinl1.
ling of cinnamon; pumpkin, the old
fashioned kind, swcetened brown with
moasscs, some with touch of allspice,
others with dash of nutmeg, and few
without flavor, for these are the special
favorites of Uncle George, the sea cap
tain, who, we all declare, has eaten duff
until his taste for civilized food is ruined.
Then there are thick mince pies, redolent
of citron, brandy aud spices, but the
people who eat them on Thanksgiving
Day will not have the best of it. The
children, who hover near the wooden
bowl while mother rolls the crust, and
are allowed one large spoonful in sau-
GER have q foretaste of the bliss to be
realized on Thursday, when the table is
at last spread, the huge turkey in the
place Of honor. We like to smell the
savory odor that exhales from the appe-
thing moss; it is foretaste prophesying
to the nose the JOY that shall befall the
palate. We gloat over the plump fellow
when he lies supinc, his drum sticks tied
helplessly together, his wings bound to
his side There is the whitest of linen
the brightest of glasses and silver, and,
lest the effect should be too cold, the
deep red of cranberry sauce and clear,
ruby depths of jelly gives touches of
color here and there. l am not sure
that it was the palate and not the artis-
tic sense of our ancestors which decreed
that jeliies should be the established
rule with meat and poultry. Fancy a
dinner table trying to feel itself well
dressed without them; as well imagine
a bonnie, black eyed girl without knot
of scarlet ribbon or cluster of red pinks
to light her hair and eyes. There are
red apples in the cellar, which will be
rubbed smooth and shining by eager lit
tie fingers there are nuts to be cracked,
almonds, iilberts and walnuts, to keep
company with raisins and figs at dessert,
after the great plum pudding, richly
brown with plums, currants, citron and
spice, and smothered in its own sauce
has been appreciated at its full worth.
And then after dinner, when our mate
rial needs are more than satisfied, how
pleasant to draw about the fire, and
laugh and tell stories until dusk brings
the pleasant day to a close, and sends
the little ones, after still another bout at
the table, of to bed and dreams of kin
dred joys to come. All, my neighoors,
it's pleasant time-let us make the
most of it, and be thankful indeed.

THANKSGIVING, ON THE FARM

"Oh, it surely seems years since the dear
children's voices
Rang out on the farm!"-so the old people
say.
'Never mind; they are coming, the lads and
the lassies
And cen the wee babies, with T hanksgiv-
ing Day.
So the turkey is fattened, the chickens grow
p,umpar,
The apples are gathered, the larder is filed
The little white "porkern dimes daily on
dainties,
Nor dreams of the hour when piggies ar
killed.
Oh, the hurry, the scurry, in Grandmamma'
kitchen,
The wel-laden table where good things are
The chairs that are waiting for hungry new
Corners,
And cen the "high chair" for the youngest
wee chldl
And back to the farm how the steam cars
are rushing
While Grandpa and Dobbin impatiently
wait
at the old depot platform, and Grandma
keeps ever
Her spectacles turned toward the wide
front-yard gate.
Dear SOUL she remembers "the boys" liked
to swing there
land hopes Grandpa mended the last hinge
they broke,
And she actually grieves that the streamlet
is frozen
"They had such fun there putting pussy to
soakln
And though she knows well that the raid on
her larder
Will keep her hands busy from morning till
night,
Yet Grandma thinks only, '1'm glad they
are coming,
The dear, happy darlings with faces SC
brightl'
Hark! here comes the wagon. Now Grandma
goes rushing,
And Grandpa lifts down the wee babe:
with care,
And out jump the mother the father, the
children,
All ready the Thanksgiving dinner tC
share.
Oh, the hugs and the kisses, the chatter ant
laughter,
The merry bright eyes, and the small
eager feetl
Hurrah for thanksgiving The old farm i.
ringing
Once more with the voices OF children SC
sweet.
