The years are so long now and dreary

With no one but John through the

And listen at times for the quick,
eager fitting
Of footsteps o'erhead or for
snatches of song.
While the children were little our
work was much harder.
Twas often an almost impossible
task
To pay all the bills and keep food in
the larder.
To watch them and answer what
e'er they might ask.
Still oftcn.imes think, though I've
grown so much older
And more nearly disabled than ever
before.
That all Of the cares | would willing

If they were all with us and children

And every year as /, draws toward
Thanksgiving
We make them all promise to visit
us here,
And I sometimes tell John thcre'd be
more joy in living,
For me, If Thanksgiving came four
times year.
I'll begin preparations next week to
receive them,
And, though they've all grown to
be women and men
And have homes Of their own. too, I'll
almost believe them
To be just my own little children
again.

Looking Ahead to January

Talk OF rise in stocks during Janu-
ary is beginning to suplant in market
letters the apprehension Of a reaction
which was so long n feature Of these
documents. In commenting upon the
outlook, one house remarks that: "Ths
position of the security markets is not
materially changing. Undoubtedly
there is some selling for the purpose
of establishing losses, and also by way
Of financing the year-end settlements
of mercantile accounts. Nor would it
be surprising if there should be a
slight rise in money rates running
through the first days of January.
Nevertheless, the main factors in the
situation are that money ard capital
are becoming more plentiful; that the
trade revival is proceeding slowly; that
the present is a dull season for trade
with the exception of retail business;
that for the next two months the bal
ance of trade az between the Atlantic
seaboard and the interior should be in
favor Of the former and that the
year-end disbursements should be only
q few per cent below the largest on
record"

The Pennsylvania has a verv expen-

1t is thought possible that the Lacka-

In conclusion it may be said that a
study of American railroad conditions

tlons in other countries lead to the
belief that while extensive develop

will be intensive development which
will fully take the place, both as re-
