couple Of good revolvers.
7 pushed the canoe from shore, and
in a few minutes was gliding over the
ripping waters of the Flambleaux with
no care Of what the journey might
bring. For over half an hour kept
my course down the river. The moon
had shone brightly until then, and was
only occasionally hidden by few dark
clouds. A cold wind came UP from the
northeast and then had some fears OF
the storm that had threatened all day.
The clouds came thick and fast and
with them rain, at first only few
drops, but finally an icy rain which was
driven by the terrible force OF the
wind. With the storm came lightning
and soon saw it would be folly to go
further. I endeavored to turn my
canoe toward shore, but the storm had
changed into a young tempest, and to
stay long on the waters in that craft
rate, and I also noticed that the cur
rent of the river seemed swifter than
I had noticed it before.
while thus engaged a new sound
fell upon my ears. 1t was a dull, deep
roar, and every moment it seemed to
increase. The water flowed more
swiftly, and the roaring ahead Of me
became deafening. I knew too we'll

bottom of the boat and hung on with

rapids the next morning they were the
worst had ever seen on medium sized
rivers. The foam dashed over me,
and my canoe grazed scores of rocks.
Then I heard the roaring far behind,
and found myself in tolerably smooth
water, but I didn't care about running
any more chances that night, and took
to the northeast bank, which was on
my left. My canoe grated on the sand
and with a feeling of safety I stepped
my foot on shore,
GAS I did so the woods for rods
around seemed to tremble. I knew
what it was. The river at this point

THANKSGIVING EVE.

Hand in hand through the village
streets,
AS the chill November twilight fell.
Two childish figures walk up and
down.
The bootblack Teddie and sister
Nell
With wistful eyes they peer in the
shops,
Where dazzling the lights from the
windows shine
On golden products from farm and
field,
And luscious fruits from every cline.
"oh, Teddie." said Nell, "let's play to-
These things are ours, and let's sup
pose
We can choose whatever we want to
eat
1t might come true, perhaps-who
knows?'
Two little pinched faces press the
pane,
And plan for tomorrow's feast
or dainties their lips will never touch,
Forgetting their hunger awhile, at
least.
The pavement was cold for the shoe
~, less feet,
Ted's jacket was thin; he shivered
and said, -%,
Lets go to place and choose some
Clothes"
"Agreed!" said Nell, and away they
| sped
To a furrier's shop, ablaze with light,
In whose fancied warmth they place
their hands,
And play their scanty garments are
changed Al
For softest fur, from far-off lands
"A grand Thanksgiving We'll haye!"
cried Nell,
"These make-believe things seem all
most true;
I've most forgot how hungry I was,
And, Teddie, I'm almost warm, aren't
you?"
Oh, happy hearts, they rejoice today,
In all the bounty the season brings,
Have pity on those who vainly strive
To be warmed and fed by imagin>
ings!

dulging in stories. Finally one of our
number, a young man, remarked that
the day was always one OF thanksgiv-
ing to him, and in explanation of this
remark. related the following story:
IT had been out three days with
party of Chicago people, and on the
day in question we were camped
about thirteen miles away from even
a game warden, and can say we had
phenomenally good luck. It was the
open season for deer, and we had al
ready killed two fine bucks. The day
had been busy one in camp. in max
ing preparations to move down stream,
perhaps ten miles or more. My in
tention had been to move in that direc-
ton early in the afternoon in a light
canoe, just to get on to the lay Of the
land. Heavy, leaden clouds had hung
low all day and everything acted like
one Of those late electrical storms that
often pass through the northwest as
Ia gentle reminder that we had one last
chance of bidding good-by to Indian
summer. Had the weather not cleared
/ might have changed my mind about
making the move I did make. Leav-
ing instructions that we would all start
in the early hours Of morning, went
down to the shore and stepped into my
canoe. / had with me my usual sup
NV Of matches and other incidentals.

rippling water that did not mind the
