MISCELLANY.


Between the long vacation
And the Christmas holidays
Comes In the bright Thanksgiving,
when our ringing cheers we raise.
In the frosty, tingling weather.
with sheaves in barn and bin.
We haste to see the fellows
Their latest victory win.
Pell.mell by train and steamer
The merry people throng.
by the onward strength of thousands
The crowd is swept along.
The girls with telltale ribbons,
And perhaps telltale blush,
No whit behind their brothers.
Are mingling in the rush.
Dear grandmammas and aunties.
with a softly fiuttering sigh,
Lament the old Thanksgiving
As the new comes laundering by.
Then to the homes fair Mecca
The scattered tribes returned,
And told the years long story
Where the great hearth fire burned.
But though we keep Thanksgiving
In the new athletic way.
We are much like famished pilgrims
when the sunset skies are gray,
by clans the kinsfolk gather
In many hungry horde.
And we finish our Thanksgiving
At the happy family board.

the three-legged stool from the corner

up the bellows and resumed her at

the bellows. O'Ruark stood near the
hearth gazing down at the fire as if
nothing was disturbing or perplexing
him. Yet he was almost trembling
with excitement. He felt nearly GER
tain that the missing bank notes were
within his reach. If his suspicious
proved to be unfounded he would,
he felt, no longer be fit for de-

racks to his fellow consta bles-when he
