and proved once more that the home
team plays better ball when they
have an uphill fight.
The locals got a bad start. A mix

gave the visitors their big lead, but

Patty. 1T makes the day Seem so
different"
Mrs Holden smiled approSingly at
her two daughters as they futtered
over a large hamper which they were
filling with good things. The Idea
had been Grace's. Since their bis
brother, Robert. and their father could
not be home for Thanksgiving. the
girls decided to share their treat with
some less fortunate than themselves.
There was Mrs MaIvina Higgins. who
washed for them and had so many
children. Grace was sure that half
turkey, pies and fxings ought to be
very much appreciated there.
'Can I go too?" asked little Eugene.

Patty. Maybe she'd like company

good idea! Miss Baker looked
very lonesome. The girls hearts filled
with every good impulse as they
trotted their little steed to Miss
Bakers street. She lived in one room
in cheap boarding house.
"There it isl" said Patty. pointing

as she reached the car a familiar
voice called: "Oh. there goes one of

to eat. At last noticing a tea tester at
his work he walked up to the man and
asked him to let him have a cup OF
tea. The tester looked at the young
man standing forlornly beside him.
and then complied with his unusual
request. Thus did the now famous
man obtain his first breakfast in New
York.
Did you know that the man who
madejt possible for US all to hear the
finest reproductions of the human
voice through the photograph. is him
self deaf and shut off from many of
these fine sounds? The explanation
of his deafness is given thus When a
very young boy Edison was standing
on the platform of a railroad station
where a freight train was unloading
One Of the crew of the train as
"ioke" lifted young Edison from his
feet by his ears, rupturing the drums
of both ears and causing the deafness,

The spirit of fun never leaves him.
He conducts a great many OF his
chemical experiments in open
mouthed tumblers-ordinary kitchen
tumblers. On one occasion he had
used over four hundred tum blers in
an experiment which had proved a
complete failure. One of his assist
ants said: Well Mr.. Edison, what
shall we do next?" Mr.. Edison
scratched his head for a moment,
and then looking at the array of
glasses he said slowly, well. think
the first. thing to do is to get some
more tumblers."
Once when asked to give his defini-
ton of genius, Mr.. Edison replied:
Two per cent. is genius and ninety
eight per cent. is hard work" AT
another time when the argument that
genius was Inspiration was brought
before him, he said: Bah! Genius
is not inspired. Inspiration is per-
spiration."

Baker.
How do you do" Margaret said,
politely. "Auntie says you are very
nice little girl"
THANK YOU" replied Patty, trying
to keep the disappointment out Of her
voice. Il hope you have a good time.
Miss Baker"
Wont you come too?" asked Miss
Baker. But 1 suppose you want to
spend Thanksgiving with your own
folks"
Patty at last got away and she was
pretty mad. IT'S just awful" she
cried. Now. what shall we do?"
Il saw right off what was going on"
replied her sister, $50 l put my think
ing-cap on. How about Willie and
Tillie Dougherty? They have no
mother and I'm sure they need
Thanksgiving cheer"
Patty thought Willie and Tillie were
very good idea, so Pinto's head was
turned around again and they raced
off to the other end of town and drew
up before neglected frame house
Grace had Patty hold the reins this
time. while she went to knock. No

Patty got out her little silver pencil

table and then go away, or else hide
in the house. That would be a fine
surprise, don't you think so?"
Patty thought it would. and as they
were very intimate with the Dough-
erty children. they felt it would be all
right to open the unlocked front door
and spread the feast without invita-.
ton or permission. But they were
scarcely inside when they heard a
low. deep, regular sound. They peeped
into the living room and there in the
morris chair sat Willie and Titles
father fast asleep with his feet on the
table and a newspaper on his face

then he said, ''whoof!" and out from
behind the newspaper popped his big

They followed him to the kitchen

cooks in town, fixing turkey and all
sorts of goodies for the motherless
Dougherties! The girls skunk away

There was nobody else they could

~ HOMAS EDISON, the wizard of
Al Menlo Park, is a name known to
NS all Americans. We think of him
whenever we think of the phono-
graph. but few of US know much about
the play side of this great man. Here
are few anecdotes about Edison,
which may be of interest to you.
Mr.. Edison received his first lesson
in telegraphy as a reward for personal
bravery. The little son of the station
agent at Mount Clemens. Michigan.
was in danger of being run over by a
train. and was saved only by young
Edison's quickness and bravery. The
father to show his gratitude offered
to teach the young man telegraphy.
The offer was accepted. and within six
months, so rapid was his progress.
Edison obtained his first appointment
in the telegraph office at Port Huron.
After failing to succeed in various
places, Edison finally drifted to New
York, where he arrived penniless
friendless and hungry. The morning of
his arrival he walked up and down

past and to come. Finally John sug-
gested playing some games. and
Grandma smiled saying: I knew you
wanted to come to that so 1 have ar
ranged some Thanksgiving games for
YOU that my children enjoyed when
they were small. Come let Us all join
in the play" Then she led them to
Grandpa's smoking den. behind the
library, and there on the wall was
pinned a large paper on which stood
a painted turkey. On the paper
around the turkey black crayon lines
had been drawn to represent a target
Each player was then presented with
how made of curved willow twigs
strung with elastic bands. Straight
twigs having two or three chicken
feathers tied to the end of them made
the arrows. '"This game" said
Grandma, lis called Shooting The
Turkey" And such fun as they did
have trying to hit the turkey in the
middle circle. The players stood al
the opposite end of the room and took
turns trying to shoot the turkey

Then Grandma announced new

family small heribboned basket and
told them that concealed about the
house were tiny paper turkeys. The
Turkey Hunt then commenced. and
again a prize was awarded at the end
of ten minutes to the one having the

In making the top it will be found
that the most difficult part of the work
will be in making the disc perfectly
round with the Is hole exactly in the
center and bored so straight that the
spindle will be at exactly right angles
with the surface of the disc of the
top when it is in place. After this
has been accomplished nail with a
small u" brad as at D. In making
the holder prepare the piece from
which it is to be made. then mark
the center of the hole upon the top
and bottom edges of the piece and
bore a ZIG" hole from both edges
until they meet in the middle, or
about half way from each side. Bore
a 1" hole where it is marked at E
and make the saw cuts to remove the
piece to make room for the string
which imparts the motive force to the
top. Place the top and the holder
together and locate the hole c and
bore it. when the top is ready for its
first trial.
A broom holder is always a welcome
addition to the equipment of any
kitchen. for it permits the broom to
he kept with its business end up
which allows any moisture it NAV
contain to dry out, and insures that
the broom will not rest upon the the
flexible ends of the straw which is
almost certain to spoil its shape. The
broom holder may be made of any
ordinary material, for it is an object
of service and in no sense is it sup
posed to be ornamental
