THANKSGIVING"

Thanksgiving presupposes thankful

he feels thankful, and this feeling is n
cultivated habit. AS an expression OF
simple ppliteness II Is not an innate
but an inbred trait. Much more is
this the case when we consider the
thanks that are due TO a benefcient
Creator. In time when Injuries are
counted as necessities a sense OF reple-
ton on dissatisfaCtio is often felt
which makes MS blind 10 the every

the material gifts that come from the

THE RETURN OF ANNAeELLE.

Once upon a time there was
glrl and her name was Annabelle,
and she was the most popular
girl In town and she worked In
her fathers drug store, waiting
on the customers.
Many had been the offers for
her hand but for all she had the
same reply: That her place was
with her father in his store, who
could not get around very we'll on
account Of having chllbIalns.
Well, the young fellows Of the
town would always drop In and
buy a nlcke's worth Of burdock
root or nux vomica, whether they
needed II or not, just TO get
chance 20 chin with Annabelie,
who would chin with them TO help
the business along unless they
got serious.
II they got serious she would
ring up the nickel and say she
had a prescription TO I'LL or make
some other suitable excuse.
Well, one day a travelling drum
mer came along by the name o.
Ad. n. Plaster, selling a sure cure
for chIIblaIns.
The n. In his name stood for
Heslve, after an ancient king In
the time Of TIehtwad, noted for
being very close.
Well, the result was that Anna
bellies father tried the chllblaln
cure and got cured, and Anna
belle, as she felt so thankful, and
as she would not be needed In
the store now, decided she would
marry and decided she was, as the
saying goes, STUCK on Plaster.
Annabelle went 10 live In her
husbands home, In Paris, Ind. az.
ter they were married.
II happened one day that Anna
bellies father fell of a stepladder
as he was climbing up 70 get

Yet you are not disturbed because your

And n some sudden thought disturbing

You both remark In harmony the self
