showered down.
Forget that graves are gaping ,
And soon shall swallow all
The thankleSS and the thankful,
The mighty and the small.
Thanksgiving. It's Thanksgiving!
Let merry bells declare
The joy that dwells within US,
The exile Of despair.
Forget that graves are gaping,
That darkness stands beside
To cover each man over
And will not be denied.
Thanksgiving! 'Tis Thanksgiving!
Let maid and matron sing;
Let bass and tenor, chording,
Give thanks unto the King.
Forget that graves are gaping
And endless silence soon
Shall still both choir and organ
And drown the joyful tune.
Thanksgiving! 'Tis Thanksgiving.
Back, care! But welcome, mirth!
To-day to you is sacred,
And all the men on earth
Forgot that graves are gaping,
That mirth with care shall be
Together, undistinguished
Throughout eternity.
Thanksgiving IT'S Thanksgiving,
Give thanks, then, oh, give thanks.
This life has many prizes
And few Of us draw blanks.
Forget that graves are gaping,
And they who win shall rest
Beside the luckless losers
In one oblivion drest.
Thanksgiving! IT'S Thanksgiving!
Fill full the flowing bowl.
The past was good-be careless
Of what may come, my soul.
Forget that graves are gaping;
This life is very sweet.
"Dum vivimus, vivamus''-
Como, friends, give thanks-and eat .

the child noticed little lamb made Of
soft white wool. Around its neck was
tied red ribbon. It had evidently been
hung on the tree for one Of the chill
dren. The little wanderer stopped be-
fore this window and looked long and
earnestly at the beautiful things in
side, but most of all was he drawn
towards this white lamb. At last.
creeping up to the window pane, he
gently tapped upon it A little girl
came to the window and looked out
into the dark street where the snow had
begun to fall She saw the child, but
only frowned and shook her head and
said: go away and come some other
time. We are too busy to take care of
you now" Back into the cold, dark
street he turned again. The wind was
whirling past him and seemed to say:
Hurry on, hurry on, we have no time
to stop. IT'S Christmas Eve and every
body is in hurry tonight"
Again and again the little child
raped softly at door or window pane.
At each place he was refused admission.
One mother feared he might have some
ugly disease which her darlings would
catch; another father said he had only
enough for his own children, and none
to spare for beggar brats. Still another

Good Manners.

Behavior is a comprehensive little
word that means kindness. politeness,
civility, consideration and whatever
else enables one to bel credit to him
self, and comfort, help and compan-
ion to his fellow man. If boys and
girls are to become gentlemanly and
ladylike they must learn good man
ners by observing and initiating the
behavior of those whom they know to
have been educated and carefully
trained. They can learn how to hold
their knife and fork, how to drink
quietly, how to eat with their lips
closed, how to taste without smacking
the lips, how to sneeze and yawn with
out making a noise or offending peo-
pies taste, how to sit up straight, how
to walk gracefully. and how to wear
their clothes. 1t is offensive to blow
the nose or touch the hair at table; it
is offensive to discuss painful subjects;
tits offensive to eat with the knife, or
to grasp either the knife or fork below
the handle; it is offensive to eat greedi.
" or to try and talk with the mouth

and beautiful light. They turned and
looked at the spot where the little wan.
derer sat. His ragged clothes had
changed to garments white aud beauti.
full His tangled curls seemed like q
halo of golden light about his head,
but most beautiful of all was his face,
which @shone with light so dazzling
that they could scarcely look upon it.
In silent wonder they gazed at the
child. Their little room seemed to
grow larger, the roof of their low
house seemed to expand and rise, until
it reached the sky. With sweet and
gentle smile the beautiful child looked
upon them for moment and then
slowly rose and foated through the
air, above the tree-tops, beyond the
church-spire, higher even than the
clouds themselves, until he appeared to
them to be a shining star in the sky
above, and at last disappeared from
sight The wondering children turned
in hushed awe to their mother and
then said in whisper: ''Oh, mother,
it was the Christ Child, was it not?"
And the mother said in low tone:
'Yes."
And SO, they say, each Christmas Eve
the little Christ Child wanders through
some town or village, and those who
