IL was the day before Thanksgiving and
their papa could not go out and catch a

and dressed themselves up like turkeys

the bushes and pretty soon the turkeys
came. They went out and each grabbed
two turkeys.
When they we're about home Vera fell
down and one Of her turkeys got away,
When they got home their father had
some hot water to dress them in. They

It was a very rainy day. There was a
frown on Ruth's pretty face as she stood
idly drumming on the window pane with
her fingers.

Just then her gaze fell on the little two
roomed cottage which Laura Davis and
her mother called home" Laura was
lame and circumstances forced Mrs. Davis
to go out daily to sew. The days passed
drearily enough for Laura and as Ruth
stood at the window, she mentally
wondered what she was doing.
She put on her cloak and hat and saying
goodbye to her mother, ran outside.
In a few minute she was knocking at
Laura's door.
Come in," was the sweet response, with
which Ruth Immediately complied.
"oh, I am so glad to see you" said
Laura joyously. see what I'm making
and she held up some doll clothes for
inspection. I'm making these for the
poor children for Christmas" she went on.
And II she can Mamma is going to buy
me some dolls"
Tears came INTO RUINS eyes as she
listened to generous Laura's words. For
here she (Ruth) was surrounded with every
comfort and not a thought had she given
IN this direction.
please excuse me a moment, Laura, -
she said and ran home. She returned with
a large collection of silks and ribbons.
Now Laura" she fervently declared.

IN Are the cowboys, in their glory;
But their life is not so full of

As we're told in song and story.
While others sit beside the fire.

In the saddle night and day;
Sometimes he ne'er home returns,
But is the Blizzard's prey.
