DICKS THANKSGIVING.
BY MRS. 5. NJ. WALSH


Well, Inever saw such a Thanksgiving
Why, the times are so hard, do you know
We can't have a turkey or chicken
No-nor hardly indulge in a crow!
For yesterday father was saying,
"No poultry for dinner this year J"
Then he lust talked first rate 10 us children
And gently called mother My deari"
And he said though he'd lost all his none,
And couldn't get much that was good,
He hoped we'd be happy and thankful, T,
And we Just shouted out that we woula
Well, now, amt it queer how things hap
pent
For only Just one year ago
We lived at the top, let me tell You,
And went in for splendor and showl
And twas only last year at Thanksgiving
Our table was gorgeous with plate,
And every conceivable dainty
That ever was longed for we ate.
But we never once thought to be thankful
For we Jared Just the same every day;
And we children were cross and complain
ing,
And wanted things just our own way.
And father--I hardly dare tell you
How angry and dreadful he grew
For he sat long at wine after dinner,
And that was the cause, we all knew.
And mother looked wretched and fearful
When we went in TO say our good night
For father was raving so wildly
That she hurried us out Of his sight.
Well, that was last year; then the crash
came,
And fathers great fortune was gone;
And from all of his hundreds OF thousands
Not dollar was left as his own.
At first he Just broke down entirely,
But mother stood up like man,
And encouraged, and cheered him, and
I'll tell it as loud as can
Let a man only get into trouble
Then see what woman will dol
How quick she'll forget her own sorrows,
And help him to carry his, too.
Wen, father took heart; now we're living
In three little rooms -all us four
But will you believe it, We never
Were quarter 50 happy before!
Every night we all kneel down together,
And father thanks God for us all
His treasures on earth"-so he calls as,
And prays that whatever befall,
ave all may have treasures in heaven.
Where naught can corrupt or destroy -
Prays for each one OF us as we kneel there,
His wife, and his girl and his boy.
Well, own to weakness for turkeys,
And chickens and ducks-(no not crows) (;
And really enjoy plum-pudding,
And oysters and creams-and all those.
But whatever we do have at our house
Shall be seasoned with love and good
cheer;
And II that doesn't make a Thanksgiving
We'lltry to do better next year!

Sold to Strangers.

The worn out blinds hang loosely,
The paint is nearly gone,
The creaking gate swings idly
The old place looks forlorn;
The myrtle mound Is grass-growns
That blossomed years ago,
And one by one have vanished
The flowers used to know.
The ancient tree whose cherries
Rejoiced my childish heart
Stands leafess, grim and groaning;
The arbor's dropped apart
That arbor In the garden
Where honeysuckle twined;
The once broad path that led there
Is now but III defined
The dear, quaint, old mansion,
1t held our kith and kin
For eighty years and over.
Till they were gathered In.
And now 1t goes to strangers;
Its glories all are fed
Since those who built the hearth-flre
Are numbered with the dead;
While we who love IL fondly
Must give parting sigh,
A farewell look, and sadly,
Forever, pass 1t by.
And still the fragrant liliea
May bloom beside the door,
But strangers footsteps echo
Across the oaken floor,
De WyatsrlOade.

Love in Bird Life.

What frauds birds are. They are
represented in poetry as sweet. gush-
ing things rising to greet the morn
with melody and bursting forth in song
on the slightest provocation. To read
bird poetry one might consider them
the most amiable of Gods creatures,
when the fact is, according to natural
lists, the majority of shining birds are
waspish and quarrelsome among them
selves to high degree. They behave
worse during their singing season,
which is also their time for mating,
when they are supposed to be fitting
about in the most loving manner, ten
derby beseeching each other to be ''my
valentine" Those who have made q
close study of birds will tell you that
mates are won, not by love but pitched
battles. for the most part. the stronger
party carrying off the prize. Some of
the more pugnacious often fight until
they are killed. Tho females battle
furiously for the males, who sit calmly
by observing the combat. quite unpre-
JUDGED and ready to say, May the best
bird win. Sometimes the conqueror
flies off with her dearly won valentine,
only to meet some superior female on
he way who disputes the prize and
wins it. If the superior female be a

" has to support her husband. until
she can get rid of him and snare an
