A Thanksgiving Wish.

Just for little to lay aside.
Struggle and stress, and the mol OF
years;
Just to drift home on quiet tide,
!. Out of the eddylng whirl OF fears;
Just for a taste of the sweets Of yore-
Home for holiday; home, once more.
Just to give thanks in the old-time way,
, There, in the little old house, again,
Where, in the grace of Thanksgiving Day,
Yearneth my heart for the 'naught in
vain"
Just for glimpse of the friendly land,
Just :or grasp of the kindly hand.
Just to look in. for little while,
Where there's a respite from needless
days;
Just to 90 home, and to reconcile
Runaway hearts with the old.time ways;
just to say, Father, thank Thee"-then
Back to the toll and the strife of men.

What Bob Is Thankful For.


I'm glad I'm not turkey,
Strutting round so fat and perky
I'm glad I'M not plump young duck
Or little baby pig;
And I'm glad L m not a yellow.
Pumpkin, ike that fat Young fellow,
Waiting in my mothers pantry,
Looking very smart and big.
Oh, there's lots of thing Pm glad about,
But one thing I am mad about
It's that horrid "second table"
Where they stow Us boys away;
Where they make you wait and wait,
Looking at your empty plate,
Till YOU wish you were your grandma,
Even if she's bent and gray,
For she's always guest of honor"
The Old Yellow Pumpkin.
How dear to our hearts is the old yellow
pumpkin, .
When orchards are barren Of stuffing for
When peaches and apples have proven a
failure
And berries of no kind have greeted our
eyes. .. -;
How fondly we turn to the rugged old
cornfeld
And gather the fruit we can never de-
spise;
The bright golden pumpkin-the savory
pumpkin
The sweet, mellow pumpkin We make
into pies.

So when they were ready, she pulled
back the soft husk from an ear OF
corn until a place large enough for
the head was left bare. The silk
served for the hair, and the eyes. nose
and mouth were made by taking out
grains of corn.
The husk was the dress, and the
part of the husk that had been turned
down in making the head, looked like
a large collar or cape.
