rnar ,ouay the average man Is utterly
upset and undone when his ears catch
the old sweet sound. OF course, this
does not justify nor account for the
current lack of gallantry among men,
but am not engaged in the hopeless
task Of restoring men to the old paths,
but in the hopeful ONE Of pointing out
a neglected talent which the most
charming Of girls may cultivate with
good results. am not grumbling. I
do not mean to say that the girl of
the period is one whit behind the girl
Of the past. do not believe in the
decadence of women. I believe that
the girl of today is equal to the girl
her mother used to be; but do not
believe that It is enough to say of our
girls that they are equal to the girls
of the past, any more than it is enough
to say of flower that has had the
best attention of the best florists for
generation, that it is as beautiful today
as it was thirty years ago. If
we have done wisely, the girl of today
ought to have not only something
which her mother lacked. but she
ought to have all her mothers graces
as we'll. But it is serious question
whether, in pressing her development,
we have not cultivated some qualities
at the expense Of others, just as in
pressing the development of certain
flower we have increased its size and
beauty at the expense of rs fragrance"

The November Mcteors.

The time is drawing near for the re-
turn of the great swarm of meteors
that caused the celebrated "star show
err" of 1888, when, for several hours,
on the night of November 18th. the
heavens were filled with flying sparks
as thick as falling snowflakes. These
meteors encounter the earth in its or
bit once in about every thirty-three
years, and they returned in 1866, al
though the display was not as we'll
seen thez as in 1888. They are due
again in 1899, but for several years be-
fore and after the arrival of the prin-
cipal swarm many meteors are usually
visible, and one Of these forerunning
showers is expected to make it's ap-
pearance the present year. According
to the opinion of Mr.. Den3ing, the En-
glish authority on meteors, the fall
ing stars" should be looked for in this
country just before sunrise on Novem-
Der 18th, and watch should also be
kept for them on the mornings of the
lEt,. and 18th

Bessie. "That is fun, or maybe she has
new dresses for our DOLLS"
II don't care for taffy, or dolls or
anything" said Sophy. I'm home
sick. Well, of course I am at home,
but it isn't home without mamma and
papa"
They went down stairs with long
faces, and neither of the children had
much appetite for their nice milk-toast
and baked apples.
well, now, how solemn you look!"
said Aunt Rosy. Thanksgiving Day,
when you ought to be thinking OF all
your blessings: and you don't even ask
me what the surprise is. We're going
to grandma's to spend the day; there,
now"
But papa and mamma won't be
there" said Bessie.
"And We can't be happy even there"
said Sophy, sobbing.
Really, it was dreadful for Aunt Rosy
to laugh at them just then, but she
did.
Il don't believe she loves us one bit"
said Sophy, in whisper.
II don't, either; she's dreadful" said
Bessie.
And all through the journey to
grandpa's house not a smile did they
give. And when the train reached
grandpa's place, and Uncle JEFF came
in the wagon to meet them, and said.

An Accomplishment In Which OuF
Mothers Exoelled the Girls of Today
In an article entitled IAN Old-Time
Accomplishment" in the Woman.s
Home Companion. Edward L. Pell
says: "The girl who has cultivated the
spirit Of thankfulness does not gusn
over at the gift Of daisy, and snap
an Indifferent 'Thanks!' at the man
who has lost day from the office 10
crafty her little within. OF course
those mothers of ours had their Whims'
and exercised the priceless privileges
Of thoughtlessness and swapping now
and then, as girls, and other than glrls'
have always done; but think 1t can
not be denied that the girl of gener-
alton ago had a conscience on the
subject of debts of gratitude sucn as
few have had since her day.
II have said that I am afraid that
with many of us today it is a lost art.
I am sure that 1t is not given that
prominence which it once had, and that
1t is not cultivated with the enthusiasm
with which it once was. Girls are
taught what etiquette says about 1t, but
etiquette deals only from the lips out
ward, and the result Is that even our
language tells the story of the deca-
dence Of thanksgiving. A traveller
from Mars might hear our 'Thanks!

1t was meant as an acknowledgment
Of a favor. am sure that up to. say
a dozen years ago, in those parts OF

But here they were at last at grand

"Well, I can't be-" said Bessie
cause papa and mamma are away,
and they've been away so long, ana
don't know when they'll come back.
And the ocean is so wide, and some
times there are storms, and If they
should get drowned I could never be
thankful again."
II couldn't either" said Sophy.'
Come, come. don't you mean to get
up at all this mornirg?" asked a
CHEEKY voice. Aunt Rosy had come in
to the room and was looking over the
headboard. Don't you know it is
Thanksgiving Day."
YES" said Bessie, "but we're not
thankful, cause papa and mamma are
away"

they come back" said Aunt Rosy. But

A Rasorm In Siberia.

Up to the present year the great pro-
vince of Siberia, covering an area con-
siderably larger than all Europe, has
been without organized courts, the
whole country having been subject to
the arbitrary administration of officials
appointed by the tsar. On the first of
August a modern and uniform system
of public justice was instituted, and
law courts were opened inreach of the
provincial capitals, with a court of
appeals at Irkutsk. There is still no
trial by jury. but the new system rep
resents a great advance upon the old.

"WELL, NOW, DARL1NGs."

"Hullo, chickens! How are you?" they
both answered together:
I'VE know it's wicked, but we can't
help it. Though it is Thanksgiving Day
we can't be thankful, for we don't know
that we'll ever see papa and mamma
again."
Then Aunt Rosy looked at Uncle JEFF,
and both laughed ha! ha! ha! and no!
ho! no!

to Sophy. II don't love:them bit. But

A NEW GOLD DISTRICT.
Recent Valuable Discoveries of Ore
West of Anaconda.

There will be more prospecting in
the hills west and southwest of Ana
conda this year than ever before, says
the Standard of Anaconda, Mont, with
the possible exception of the early
days when Cable was the gold pro-
Queer of the county. Then the i'm
mediate country surrounding that
famous mine was pretty well pros
pected: yet ii is a fact that some good
ground was overlooked then, as is
shown by recent discoveries in that
neighborhood. Parties of prospectors
are going into country that was prac-
tically UNEMPLOYED by earlyday miners
almost every day. It is possible that
every foot of the ground between here
and Bitter Root viii be explored in
one way or another before winter.
Already Moose Lake district is about
all staked off. and this particular sec
ton of the belt is forging ahead at a
rapid rate, several discoveries having
been made there that have opened the
eyes of the mining world. All along
