And cock Q watchful eye.
We sigh full sad and catch breath.
Our thoughts race far and nigh:
Wild whispers float adown the wind.
''And what of pumpkin pier
Oh, glowing. golden. bulging fruit.
Great gem OF teeming earth,
We little heed thy rich. ripe CLEAN
Or feel thy passing worth
Until fell demons Of the air
Snatch thee and leave dearth!
And then when served with cunning hand,
All smoking. crisp and brown,
In pie that bears thine honored name.
Still wesrest thou thy crown.
While all about rings joyful shout
From countryside and towni
Grief clouds the face when SORROWS fall:
True love cannot buy;
The sun lost from sight of men
When cloud racks veil the sky.
The barren land lies still in death
When water courses dry
And what will our Thanksgiving be
Without its pumpkin pie?

By using two sources of \ rays in

that the picture stands out distinctly,
showing all the space relations of the

be of the utmost value to surgery, per
