The Ivory God.

The ivory god has taken the place Of
the Dresden statuette and the dainty
and fragile filigree toy. A few years
ago every mans ambition was to have
a sufficient number Of silver trInkets to
fill ''silver table," and this piece Of
ostentatiOn held a place in the affec-
tons and the drawing-room of every
whimsical woman of fashionable pre-
tensions. Some of these toys We're use
full, such as the wee boxes and trays
for desk or dressing table. the minia-
ture candlesticks and the dainty calen-
dars and photograph frames, but most
of them were wholly frivolous and as
impractical as they were diminutive.
One woman whose soul delights in
tiny things-from lap dog to well-nigh
invisible timepieces-draped her piano
with scarf of thin silk. Y was arrang-
ed in soft folds, each fold held in place
by a little piece of Dutch silver. The
collection, which was strewn all over
the top of the piano, included n violin.
a cradle, chairs, a clock and other arti-
cles Of "bigotry and virtue" Each
was beautifully chased and carved.

The first Thanksgiving was appointed
by Gov. Bradford, at Plymouth. Mass,
in 1921. the year following the landing OF
the Pilgrims, IN order that the Colonists
in a more special way could rejoice to-
gether AT having all things in good and
plenty. writes Clifford Howard in the
Ladies' Home Journal. In preparation for
the feast "gunners were sent into the
woods for wild turkeys, which abounded
there in great numbers; kitchens were
made ready for preparing the feast-espe-
cially the large one in Dame Rrewsters
house. which WAS under the immediate
direction and charge of Priscilla Molines,
she who afterward became the wife OF
John Alden-while a messenger was dis
patched to invite Massasoit, the chief Of
the friendly tribe. to attend the celehra-
ton.
EARLY on the morning of the appointed
Thursday-about the first of November
Massasoit and ninety of his warriors ar
rived on the outskirts Of the village. and
with wild yells announced their readiness
to enjoy the hospitality Of their white
brethren. The little settlement, which now

We thank Thee. Lord, for daily food,
For all received Of daily, good:
For sunshine and the songs Of birds
And melody of loving words.
We thank Thee for the books we read
And for the books Of hooks we need:
For hopes Of earth so sweetly given.
And for the higher hopes OF heaven.
For children's voices full Of love:
For the bright clouds that float above;
And for the tears we've sometimes known
For SORROWS other than our own.
For loved ones here and loved ones gone.
Who still. with Thee, keep loving on;
For spirit tones that softly call.
And for the cross that's over all.
