THANKSGIVING Day.

Our pilgrim fathers left US a good ex-
ample when they set aside a day in
which to devote our thoughts to count
ing up the blessings of the year-not only
to outside causes Of prosperity, such as
the abundance of our crops, the good
fruit year, peace and plenty everywhere,
but we should count our personal bless
ings, zone by one;" even in those where
sorrow and trouble are ever present-the
blessings would outnumber the Attic
tions.
Is it not something to see the blue sky
and the green fields, to hear the joyous
song of the birds, to have the use Of our
limbs, and, better far, clear brain and
an active mind? Let us keep our hearts
tuned to praise and thanksgiving, then
we will bring smiles to other faces that
seldom smile. These are little things, but
life is made UP Of little things.

The Country Girl.

All! weep for the maid of the days gone
by
The fairest Of English posies-
With the ripe red lip and the laughing
eye
And cheek like cream and roses.
She is caught in the flood Of the flowing
tide
That sets to the teeming city,
For her love for a country life has died
We nax= lost her-and more's the pity.
She mas vanished from sight i'll the city S
whirl,
And it's hey lack-a-day for the country
girl!
For now in a sitting diapers shop
In the heart Of the town youth find
her;
And 1 wonder, when weary and like to
drop,
Does she sigh for the life behind her
For the sweet green fields and the lowing
kline,
And the work that was half a pleas
ure,
Ere she fancied the town was a golden
mine
Where the poorest might dig for treas
ure,
Where she thought she might wed with
duke or an earl,
This foolish and frivolous country girl
Black and White.

The Origin of Dominoes.

Two monks, who had been commit
ted to a lengthy seclusion, beguiled the
weary hours of their confinement by
showing each other small fiat stones
marked with black dots. By precon-
ceated arrangement the winner would
inform the other player Of his victory
by repeating in an undertone the first
line Of the vespers prayer. In process
Of time the two monks managed to
complete the set of stones and to per-
feet the rules Of the game, so that
when the term Of incarceration had
expired the game was so interesting
that it was generally adopted by all
the inmates Of the monastery as law
full pastime. 1t very soon spread from
town to town, and became popular
throughout Italy; and the first line
of the vespers was reduced to the
single word Domino" by which name
the game has ever since been known.

Character in Walking.

Steps that are quick are indicative
Of energy and agitation
Turned in toes are often found with
occupied, absent-minded persons.
Slow steps, whether long or short,
suggest a gentle or reflective state of
mind, as the case may be.
The proud step is slow and meas
ured. The toes are conspicuously turn
ed out, the legs Strengthened.
Where a revengeful purpose is hid
den Under feigned smile the step
will be Sinking and noiseless.
Obstinate people who in argument
rely more on muscularity than on in
tellectual power rest the feet fatty and
firmly on the ground, walk heavily and
slowly and stand with the legs firmly
planted and far apart.

1t will be gratifying to American
women to be told that French artist
and sculptor has just announced that,
so far as his experience can prove it.
the most beautiful hands belong to an
American woman. When M. Bredelle

Denver Miss Fanny Rosenthal, of that
city, and was attracted at once to the
perfect shape Of her hands, and beg
ged permission to make a plaster cast.
This cast has gone to Paris and later
will be produced in marble.

For I've reached my prime, and It's mighty

Care of the Comn1exiou.

A woman even if plain can confound
all critics If her complexion is that of
the oily and Of the rose," as the
poets said Of old, or better, of healthful
hue.
But for face to be free from all
ugly blemishes 1t Is necessary that
the general circulation Of the blood be
good, that the nervous system be Of
normal function, and that the diges-
tive, generative and other internal or
gans be in perfect health.
Among the causes which exert a dis
astrous influence on the skin and pre-
dispose it to skin disease are hered-
ity, indigestible food, alcoholic stimu-
lants, general ailments, the ABSORB
ton Of certain medicines (bromides,
iodines, arsenic, mercury, the appli-
cation Of stale pomatum or rancid
creams, powders Of inferior quality,
the handling Of irritating substances,
para sites of the skin, excessive heat or
cold, and the excuses Of violent pas
sions, such as rage, chagrin, worries,
fear or the shedding Of tears, all Of
which should be avoided.-Woman's

Beware of Nervous Breakdown.

A woman who does not sleep sound
ly is in danger of a nervous break
down. A woman who finds herself
weakening in nerve strength must rest.
This rest must be systematic, not spas

toned routine of her work, though she
need not give up all work. She must
do all things moderately. She must rise
late and retire early.

The Duties of Mothers.

"a
A mother and a wife should not for
get that she owes some duty to her-
self. In the stress Of family life, III
the cares of bringing up children, many
women do forget this. Iney fancy
that they must shield the poor, hard
working, bread-earning husbands from
all the troubles and annoyances of the
home. For him there should be slip
pers at the fire and cushion on the
chair.
And the children? OF course, they
must be clothed just as we'll as the
neighbors' youngsters, even though the
mother goes without a new winter
coat: And the daughter must go to as
many dances in the week as she likes,
else where will be her place in the
young society? And so the mother
stays at home to wash the dishes and
mend the stockings. 1t Is all very fine
for the husbands and the children;
and the mother, bless her! enjoys 1t.
But isn't she a little unfair to herself,
and isn't it her own fault? She takes
it for granted that she should sacrifice
herself, and the others take 1t for
granted, too.
But everybody has some right to
certain amount of living for his own
ends. Everybody has a right to slice
Of his own life to spend as he or she
chooses. And the mother should take
it. Not only she herself, but the whole
family, would be bettered if they were
not allowed forever and eternally to
lean on the mother. 1t is not because
they are close-hearted that they do it;
it is because they do not think, and in
the mothers love she does not think,
either, but cheerfully gives herself,
when it would be better to require a
little Of the others.-Woman's Home
Compa Mon.
Should Be Natural Homemakers.
Our mode Of living, our love OF
home the honor heaped upon the
mothers and daughters by most Amer
lean men should stimulate us to the
highest achievements in the home life
and domestic economy. Generosity
characterizes almost every mans con-
duct toward his family Wom-
en- have had much TO do with this trait
In the masculine character. They have
instilled it in their children, elected
it by their unselfish devotion to ia th-
ers, husbands and brothers. They have
kept abreast with the progress of the
stronger sex; they have shared the
burdens and SORROWS as well as the
joys and recreations Of the men with
whom they have been associated. They
have competed with them in intellec-
tual pursuits and have commanded
their respect and confidence by their
! ability to be companions in all re-
spects. Yea, more, the noblest women
of the nation have been foremost in
the establishment of their homes and
most skillful in the administration Of
the domestic affairs Of the household,
in the rearing and educating of their
children and in the carrying out Of all
philanthropic and religious duties for
the betterment Of mankind and the
uplifting Of the race.-Mrs. John g.
