it. A cultivation Of the Thanksgiving

the whole horizon Of life beautifed. Then
the ordinary affairs Of life will never
more be commonplace; our conditions and

great artist who sees the common in an

was seen. The turkey meat is positive
ly rich, and even the white meat that is
generally dry has a moist. spicy taste.
This is his recipe for roast turkey:
Clean the turkey with as little handling
as possible and rinse with water in which
a little baking soda has been dissolved.
Now break up about half a pint Of bread
crumbs, and into the crumbs chop two
links of pork sausage. Stuff the turkey
with this mixture and just before put
ting into the oven bind salt pork on the
breast of the turkey. Remove the pork
just before the, turkey is taken from the
oven. When the meat is carved, it's
flavor will be found very superior. This
is particularly to be recommended for
the Thanksgiving turkey, which, with so
many other dainties rivaling it, must
be very appetizing to be enjoyed.

Charles Thanksgiving

~ NE year ago, Charlie had come to
Il II the city to make his fortune He
~ was fond of farming and farm
stock; but they were slow means to
wealth. He would go to the city for the
fortune, and would then come back and
purchase the best farm in the vicinity,
and have fine horses and big meadows
and-enyious neighbors.
He was standing on a street corner,
with hands thrust deep down into his
pockets, and wearing the same clothes
he had brought from home. But the
clothes were soiled and worn threadbare
and shiny, and the shoes were unblacked,
and the hat lacking part of its brim; and
hong ago he had discarded such extras
go collars and cuffs The fingers of one
hand played idly with his two last half
dollars, both Of which were owed for
the poor little room he rented on one Of
the back streets; and the other fingers
touched several pawn tickets, which he
had no expectation Of redeeming. In
deed, he was wondering duly if there
were anything else in his trunk which
could be pawned. He had had no break
fast, and there was no prospect for 4
dinner-and this was Thanksgiving.

sitting on dry goods box, swinging
his bare feet industriously to the tune
he was whistling. But his eyes were
fixed on the listless figure of his neigh
Dor.
Say, country" he called, suddenly,
what you thinkin' of"
Charlie flushed, but did not answer.
Come, don't make an owl O. your
self" the boy went on; there's nothin'
in this world to fret over. Look here"
swinging his legs upon the box: mo
clothes to spare, an what there is amt
much for cold weather; an my jackets
lost an arm, an my shirt most o. one
shoulder; an furthermore" pausing to in
dulge in another bar Of the street ditty
he was whistling, Il amt had no break
fast. an only cold pertater for supper
last night; an still l amt no split milk
to cry over" His legs swung back into
space and beat a lively accompaniment
to the conclusion Of the tune. Then he
looked at Charlie.
Now, what's broke with you?" he de-
manded. You amt stalled, an you've
got shoes on your feet
But | can't eat my Shoes" Charlie
retorted; land the two pieces Of money
I have left are to pay for my room. And
and what's worse. I'm out of job
"Twasn't understanding out o1iices--but
1t meant a room and something to eat"
The street boy stopped drumming and
looked at him with more interest.

40 come TO my feast last nlgh


Turkey? oh, no, but we. had fowl
Which was very large for four,
Indeed, the old man and even the boy
SaId they couldn't have wished for more
We none Of us cared for cranberry sauce
But we had whole mtnce pre-
cTwas sent by my country aunt, you see),
And the dinner was not so dry,
For we had some collective cups apiecel
Who cared If the cups were small:
Why, the girl with the crutch was heard to
That She couldn't drink 1t all;
And the stammering boy said he was sure
He would have bad dreams all night
And the old man said he'd not eaten so
much
Since the year when he lost his sight.
And that wasn't all, for after the feast
When the dishes were cleared away,
We had some nuts by the bright coal fire,
And I tell you we were gay!
For the old man told such funny tales
That our laugh made the old room ring,
And the girl with crutch had banjo, too,
And the stammering boy could sing!
1t seemed so strange to hear his voice
Move on quite smooth and clear,
That 1 wondered if sometimes, perhaps, in
heaven,
Whether that be far or near,
II our speech will be clear from the halt
with which 1t is troubled now,
And If we can walk without the crutch
Which we always need, somehow;
And If we shall be no longer blind,
GAS we all of US are, in a way),
All, then there would be a feast, indeed,
royal Thanksgiving day!
And l know last night, as we laughed and
sang,
We forgot the long, hard year.
We forgot all weakness and all want
In the light of our own good cheer.
For gayer guests with a brighter wit,
I'm sure it were hard to find;
My girl with q crutch, my stammering boy,
And my old man who is blind.

Significance or Thanksgiving Day
Should Not Be Forgotten.
There is danger that the religious sig
nifcance Of Thanksgiving day may be
forgotten. We so soon grow accustom-
ed to our blessings that we accept them
as a part of the general order of things
and naturally become ungrateful by pure
forgetfulness or Indifference. But as a
matter of fact most things which come
to us come by the pure favor or courte-
sy Of others, and how unworthy do we
consider the migrate! writes Rev. S. L.
