The golden grain Is garnered-
Our store-houses o'erfow-
Der prairie broad and city mart
The winds of fortune blow.
No losses from distemper-
No rust the wheat TO blight
Thanksgiving to the Father
Who has blessed us day and night.
No pestilence is near us
No sound of war is heard
Peace tinkles in the shepherds bell,
And rusting lies the sword.
The brooks rush on right merrily--
The song-birds seem to say,
Praise God for every blessing sent
On this Thanksgiving Dayp
Friends who have long been parted,
The dear old homestead seek,
To chat Of pleasures that are past,
And Of the future speak.
All home once more, with hearts aglow
They gather round the board,
And cry in concert, fervently,
Thanksgiving TO the Lordp
All selfishness is put to flight
The wretched poor may feast
On dainties that they seldom touch
For this one day at least.
And cen the felon in his cell
May taste Of dainty fare
Oh, God is graciousl Shout His praise
Thanksgiving everywherel

al expected you would be, Aunt Hep
sic, aud should have been here earlier,
but company came last night and could
not get away"
A bright-faced girl had entered and
was taking off her wrappings as il per-
fectly at home in the farm house, and
perfectly sure of her welcome. She was
of middle height and a graceful build.
Her face was very pleasing one, though
just where the charm was one could
scarcely determine, whether in the
bright, expressive eyes, the warm, sym
pathetic smile, or the winning express
sion, but at all events it was there, if
somewhat beyond analysis, and Marion
Ainslie was a charming girl, with the
faculty of attaching warm friendship to
herself from young and old.
"Uncle Jerry's folks came aud stopped
over on their way TO Watertown to spend
Thanksgiving with Eli, she explained.
"They wanted me to go too, but knew
you needed me, and can go there an.
other time"
"Land sakes, child, you needn't a
stayed for that" Aunt Hepsie turned

came and laid her bright head on the
elder woman's shoulder. "And then,
too, Thanksgiving isn't quite the same
to me anywhere else but here"
"No, Marion, nObody can fill your
place." the bony old hand, withered AMI
worn in service for others, smoothed ths
satiny black hair caressingly. 'If yol

A crimson flush overspread the so.
brunette cheek.
'YOu haven't heard anything from
Jack, have you, Marionl"
''No, auutie, not a word" she
sighed. "Just year ago to-day, aud
it seems like ten. "
"What was it, child, that set him of

The London Lancet denounces as
false the doctrine that abundant hair is
a sign of bodily or mental strength in
man. 1t says that despite the Samson
precedent the Chinese are mostly bald,
yet they form the most enduring of
races. The average mad house furnishes
proof that long aud thick hair is not a
sign of intellectually. Tho easily
wheedled Esau was hairy, while the
mighty C@sar was bald. "Long haired
men are generally weak and fanatical,
and men with scant hair are the philOso-
piers and statesmen and soldiers of the

anger, disease and grief, grief being the
chief cause of suicide among women ;
whereas in Europe the motives are main

great when compared with the smalIness

Dom Pedro is reported to be deeply
disappointed by the emphatic refusal of

leave to live in Brazil. The ex-Emper-

SUNDOwN.

Now sky and wood and upland
Are drenched with crimson rain;
The mellow clink of COW. bells
Is coming up the lane.
Now arrowy swallows, ,cheeping,
Their circling comrades haie
While ping-a-pang-a
Goes the milking-pail.
Now ducks come waddliug homeward,
And geese, in single file;
Aud chickens fy to branches,
Or topthe old wood-pile.
Now bats leave barn-yard crannies,
And dusky grows the vale;
While swish-a-swash-a-swisha
Goes the milking pail.
Now katydids wax testy,
And crickets whisper 'sleep"
And sudden sparks Of fireaies
Pulse through the shadowy deep
Now DINNER grow the meadow,
Vined wall and zigzag rail;
While frith-a-froth and homeward
Goes the milkng-pail.

A Drastic Remedy.

An amusing case has just been tried
at Kasan, in Russia. A woman of the
name of Outchakine was summoned be-
fore the judge on the charge of beating
a cousin of hers, named Kuiazef. But
the accused had complete answer to
the indictment.
"My cousin gave me leave in the pres
ence OF witnesses, she said to the judge,
"to trounce him we'll if ever he broke
the solemn promise he gave me at church,
to give up smoking altogether"
Kniazef could not deny this. His
austere relative had come upon him una
wares when enwreathed in cloud OF
smoke Tae judge acquitted the
prisoner, but admonished her not to lay
on SO nard in the future.

Judge Of Crimes Foster hns concluded
his secret examination into the assault
upon the seamen Of the United States
steamship Baltim ere, and il is probable
that the result OF the testimony in the
case will be obtainable some time next
week. The evidence will show that
Riggin, the American, was killed by a
rife shot. It has been established that
there was bullet hole made through
the scarf and overshirt OF the Baltimore
sailor who supported Riggin after he
had been stabbed. Inregard to Shields

THE CASPIAN SEA.

Remarkable Changes In TIE Level. and
why They Have Occurred.
The Caspian sea lies eighty-fve feet
below the level OF the Black sea, and
70 tho greatest body OF water in the
world lying below the sea level. says
Goldthwaite's Geographical Magazine.
II Is remarkable not only for this fact.
but for the changes that have occurred
In Its level About the first century OF
our ora there II no doubt that the level
Of the sea stood eighty-five feet above
Its present horizon. and OF course,
spread over vastly more extensive
arca than at present. The Russian
Geographical society has printed O
treatise written hy N. Al. MillipOi
oil these remarkable changes OF level.
Since the carly part oi the Christian
era general and or; lual decline OF
the level Of the sea has taken place.
In the eighteenth century. however,
there appears to have bcen few
periods when the level rose. From
tho beginning OF the present century
there has been fall, but since 1865,
judging from recent observations the
level has been higher Lieut.. Sokolof,
naval officer. while working in the
Caspian region from 1843 to 1848, col
lected much information. He found
that In the present century the level
had steadily fallen. just as in the last
century 1t has risen. causing great ap-
prehension among the inhabitants Of
an inundation and giving rise to the
belief In periodical variat ions every
thirteen years.
Lerch. while in Baku. in 1884 and
1747. found submerged buildings which
had stood on dry land thirty years be-
fore. and he mentions saying OF the
Persians that the sea rose and fell
alternately every thirty years. Mr..
Phillipof has made a special study Of
the whole question. Inquiring into the
causes OF these changes Of level, he
finds n variety Of influences at work.
such us wind driving tho water towards
certain coasts, temperature OF the air
causing in summer evaporation and
consequent fall In level. and In winter
cold producing a rise in level. Rivers.
rain, and earthquakes are also among
the active agencies, causing fuctua-
tons from month to month and from
day to day.
