One of Thorndike's Bright BOYS.

Our Thorndike correspondent writes: In
school district No. in this town there is a
young lad II years of age whom we deem
worthy OF mention as a smart and industri-
ouS pupil He takes great interest in all his
studies having each recitation prepared with
care and thoroughness. He reads in the
fourth reader and after reciting the teacher
frequently requires the class to write from
memory such part of the lesson as each
one can recall. Following is AN exact word
to, and we offer it not AZ boasting of our
smart pupils but hoping it MAY he the means
of encouraging others to do likewise The
story given below was written without any
and reading the lesson:
John Smith was born in Lincolnshire
England in the year 1919. Queen Elizabeth
was then on the throne of England. The
first hero of Virginia was captain John
Smith of England William Shakespeare the
worlds greatest poet was lad of fifteen
wears Old. Sir Walter Raleigh, who was
famous but unfortunate, obtained from
Queen Elizabeth a grant of vast territory
Here Raleigh spenta great fortune. Finally
IN l5S9 Raleigh sold his rights to a STOCK
company. Soon Smith, as he tells lis. want
ed to go back to his own country. but hear
my of wars in Morocco he Went to Africa
After he had reached England there was d
company Of merchants and men in London

Smith thought he would 20 too.

The New England Thanksgiving,

Another year with it's joys and sorrows,
change, looks down upon us. Would that
the many families reunited might not have
vacant chair. Would that every member
might be present to add his voice or her
song to the happy throng Many people
have a favorite holiday. For the Fourth
OF July possesses peculiar charms and awak-
ems patriotic feelings which belong to no
other occasion. Many feel that Christmas
time, with the holidays following, is sacred
to benevolent thoughts and emphasize these
days With gifts from hearts overlooking with
charity and love. Feb. 22d is still another
which commentaries the love of a nation
for its wonderfully gifted chieftain, and so
We might enumerate; but beyond all for us
New England people especially stands our
glorious Thanksgiving Day. The Pilgrim
fathers hailed it with sincere thankfulness
BY them it was most devoutly kept and
the poor substantially remembered
Theirs tables groaned with appetizino
loads, the product of their meagre farms IT
may be that the lapse of more that two cen
turtles has somewhat cooled the oldtime ar
dor, yet the spirit of cheer is So contagious
in the present generation that many old
homesteads still ring with JOY and merri-
ment. Among the reunions of this ,iay We
notice that Of Mrs. Abigail Nickerson. of
Swanville. vi family numbering thirty
four children and grandchildren three were
necessarily absent. while thirty-one were
present and enjoyed the hospitality of the
honored home.
The mother, who is now seventy-tive years
of age, planned and executed many of the
arrangements of that day and retains her
health and faculties in a remarkable degree.
AT o'clock all repaired to the dining room
and, after partaking of the bountiful repast.
it was pronounced equal to the Thanksgiv-
ing dinners of old
In due time an interesting programme was
carried out, consisting of music, speeches,
essays, recitations, determinations, and
queries, each one doing his OF her part in a
very satisfactory manner. Later came the
time of separation and thus ended one of
the happiest occasions the day afforded

but the material decline in silver has put an
effectuai check upon further business in this
line tor the present. There is some tonnage
wanted for Australia, but the bids are low.
and as suitable ships are scarce, with few or
none offering from the other side at the low
hglres prevailing, it is possible that some
what higher rates will have to be paid to
cover the herths. The deal and timber
trades remain very dull, at the low rates
ruling for many weeks. River Plate and
Brazil freights have been subject to no
change, and business in that direction con-
tlnues moderate. West Indies and other
