wanted, of course, is paint of such

THANKSGIVING In Moses Time.

In some respects our Thanksgiving
resembles the Jewish feast of taber-
nacles. That was a national institu-
ton appointed by the great Jewish
lawgiver, Moses. 1t was also called
''the feast of ingathering," held an
nually at the end of the harvest sea-
son. BY dwelling during the feast in
crude booths, or tabernacles, built of
the branches of olive, palm or pine
trees outside the walls of Jerusalem
and within the streets, the Israelites
were reminded of the struggles of
their forefathers in the wilderness,
unhoused, sometimes in despair, then
filed with hope, ever pushing on in
search of 'the better country" where
they might develop their national life.
This feast recalled Gods gracious guild
ance in past history and acknowl.
edged present blessing in an abundant
harvest. Its peculiar characteristic
was the spirit of rejoicing, praise and

HIS REASONS WHY
By JAMES A. EDGERTON

Copyright. 1902 by American Press
Association
HE crouch approached your I'm
Gle Sam
And said: Il do not see
Why this Thanksgiving thing should
make
A hit with you and me.
With prices going up this way
It took bunch of gall
To make our jolly president
Present us such STALL"
Your Uncle Samuel, surprised
At this discordant wall,
Turned slowly round to see what bug
Had broken out of Jail.
With gaze deliberate he scanned
The crouch from top to toe.
His eyes were frosty, but in each
A spark began to glow.
''What is there to be thankful for7
Why, fifty million things!
I'm thankful that right here on earth
Mankind has sprouted wings;
I'm thankful that Americans
Have taught the world to fly
And that the north pole they likewise
Have landed high and dry.
'1'm thankful that my battleships
Around the world have won;
I'm thankful that prosperity
Is rising like sun,
But most of ALL he said, "my boy,
I'm thankful that so few
Of my belo-ed citizens
Are knockers such as you"

MISPLACED Sympathy.

You think of the turkey
Perhaps with a sigh.
Poor fellow" you ponder.
SO soon will he die"
But think for a minute
Before he is dead
How many poor fellows
Will doubtless be wed.
And well ere the end Of
The turkey begins
There's many man who will
Doubtless have twins.
So waste not your pity,
For if he but knew
The turkey might be just as
Thankful as you.

A Literal INTERPRETATION

Mlnister-You know, my friend. in
the matter of Thanksgiving it isn't so
much what you eat as how you feel.
You'll enjoy your dinner If your heart
is right.

to send me the best one he has. We're
goin' to have it stuffed.

exhausted DANCE.
In these latter days since the Indian
has been crowded Off into ever narrow
ing reservations the THANKSGIVING of
the white man has been adopted per-
force. On that day the allotment of
beef has been made at many of the
posts. Thus it has become the one
day in the whole year when the red
men could escape the hated pillow and
indulge to the full in the original feast
ing and dancing. Thanksgiving with
most of the Indians is the supreme
holiday And why should it not be,
since he is its real originator?
