A Thanksgiving Poem.
Praise God for wheat, so white and sweet,
of which we make our bread!
Praise God for yellow corn, with which His
waiting world is fid!
Praise God for fish and flesh and fowl, ho
gave to man for food!
Praise God for every creature which lie
made and catted it good!
Praise God for winter’s store of ice!
Praise God for summer’s heat!
Praise Gcd for fruit trees bearing seed: “To
you it is for wheat!”
Praise God for all the bounty by which tho
world is fed!
Praise God, Ills children all, to whom. He
git es their daily bread!
—Edward Everett Hale.
Our Thanksgiving Day.
There is no country in the world that
celebrates Thanksgiving Day as our own.
From the. time the Pilgrim fathers landed
and instituted tins festival, it has been
religiously kept. In their poverty and hard
labor, when cultivating the sterile soil of
N< w England, they felt a deep sense, of
gratitude when the season for gathering
the crops arrived, and a day for thanking
the Giver of all good was set aside.
Even tho ancient Hebrews went up to Je
rusalem at the harvest season to worship
in tlie. holy temple—a once a year festival,
and one to correspond with our Thanks
giving.
'the most beautiful feature of tho day
apart from the real meaning is the recogni
tion Os family ties—a holiday for the homo
coming, the greeting of the children and
grandchildren all under the paternal roof,
the social chat, the exchanging of expe
rt nc s. the games of children all combine
t > make it a day of social pleasure.
Then let memory linger around tho
Thanksgiving table laden with good things
the turkey, ducks, chicken pies, to say
nothing of the. plum puddings, miner*. pits,
nuts, fruit, etc. .Many and swei t are tho
recollections of such occasions, and bright
and strong stands out the moving factor of
it all—the mother, loved and honored—she
it is who loves to gather together her own
around her and thinks no labor too great
to give them pleasure. Tho home blessed
by a. good mother lias cause to keep a
grand Thanksgiving, not only to praise
God for all His bounty to the body, but for
a still greater blessing, a mother who
ministers to both body and soul.
Would that all oil our r< .ad-r» could
gather around them on this Thanksgiving
Day a.ll their loved nil's, and unite with
grateful hearts in giving thanks lor all tho
blessings which are th'-irs.
Thanksgiving 1 Turkey.
No Thanksgiving table would be consid
ered lomplete without a turkey. Some, like
pygter stuff! ig and others chestnut Th©
following is a nice way to prepare the
stuffing: Shell one quart of large ■he •-
nms, pour over them boiling water and Id
stand until the brown ‘■■kin will peel off
east Then put them o bo 'water
. htlj st Ited a id cook until soft; drain
.and m.l-11 tine with wood'-’i po'a'.o masher.
fill nd keep i it for
gravy. Mix with tne chestnuts one cupful
of fine cracker crumbs, one teaspoonful of
salt, one of pepper. one of Chopped parsley
and t ited yellow rind of half t lemon.
Add a third of a cupful of melted butter
and a very little hot water to swell the
bread crumbs. This will be found to be a
very nice dressing for your Thanksgiving
turk y. Another very palatable dish is
es. Bake six
s'zed peiafocs in a. moderate oven about
the it .- but keeping the shell in good
shape; ma.-li the potato, adding butter the
size of an egg, te.aspoonful of salt and
some pepper and a. half a cup of hot milk;
beat until light, thou add carefully the,
well-beaten whites of two eggs. 1b turn to
the shell, heaping slightly; touch lightly
here and there with the yolk of an egg,
using a brush for the purpo: • : then place
in a rather quick < ven, until a delicate
brown fifte, n minutes is long enough.
Serve immediately.
An Hour for the Children.
“Betxv-■ n tli- lark and the daylight,
When the night is beginning to lower,
Comes a pause in the day’s occupation
That is known as the children', hour!”
Some writer in The Christian Work asks
the very important question “what is tho
children’s hour in Aim ri<.m homes?”
It is true that some, households devote the
hour “between the dark and the daylight”
to the children of the home—and it is also
true that in many more there is n< ver
given an hour or even half hour to the
amusement of the little ones. When wo.
consider how much pleasure it gives a
child to be noticed, or share the confidence
and sympathy of parents, we wonder why
n.or,- time is not devoted; to them. In the
present time when tho iiu.slncss and rus a
of the world occupies almost the entire time
of the father of a. family, ho has but li.’lii
opportunity of becoming acquainted wdh
his children; but one hour given
to them, joining In their romps
and games, helping' them in
their school tasks would do more to bring
them into a. sweet fellowship and ingot an
Influence over the child tha-t time would
never efface. We plead for an hour for tlie
children. X> t it be entirely th. irs. bet
them plan their own ga’ii. s. t 11 their own
»-X|. i r!i in i s and bring their every joy and
sorrow to the mother and father.
Some beautiful thoughts on this subject
were advanced at one of -Mr. Moody’s con
ferences by’ an English preachi r and may’
prove profitable to mmy parents, lie said:
"Not a few Christi ins wer*.*. so very
spiritual that they hud no time or thought
for Howers, but not so with J stm. Ho
could look at a. flower and uml* i land it
as no one i isi- could. Tli.it some Cbr.stlans
were so spiritual that they had no
time for anything but church service on
Bunday, they could not find time to play
with their own children; but Christ was not
too spiritual to rebuke* the disciples xv.:io
rebuked the mothers for bringing their
cliildien to 1 lim.”
This man of God bit the importance of
a close communion with his children. Ho
'said in his own busy’ lit- there came hours
when no deacon in his church could inter
rupt him, but he wa.s never too busy to
have, his little boy come with his broken,
whip to be mended, and lie Stopp- d the
sermon making, which was important, to
mend the whip, because he said that v. s
still more important, for, lie said, “wit, ’t
that boy became eighteen or twenty y. ars
of age the. fatlicr wanted t I n,
throwim around h m those cord: oi
tion with-11 would shield him from a thous
and ivih. atid he felt that if he refused to
mend the whip today he would las. tho
influence which would be neecs: ary in later
How true this Is, and would It not bo
won ror every father to ponder, and then
go and do likewise.
The < hildren’s hour In I rance is al
wavs the hour between 5 and '1 o'clock.
This time is d'-v<d<d to t if- .hildr-n by
evry member <»f the h<»n -hoi I. hi hng
la.nd. also, consider:: bl, time ■ devoted to
the. children, but the hour varies. Mi:-,lit
not America learn a. h sson fr-mi t h-se
countries that would be appropriate a d
useful •’ L< tus give more t eto
dren— it will more than repay you in the
years to come, and yon will iu*V'*r ri-gr-'t
the hour spent in bringing joy and happi
ness to the little ones.

in .'evi ral places. When Faul "How that

tl i; : s, xl, 4, “Millennial Dawn” Interprets I

Mrs? R, L. Surles, Surles, Ala.—Allow me
to say to the sisters who sent postage
for sugar maple bark that I will send it
soon to all I have neglected. We have
been cut off by quarantine for several
weeks. I thought best to wait until It was
over in order the packages should not bo
delayed on the way. I hope those to whom
1 have sent the bark are relieved ere this.
I suppose our duties are practically the
same, but opportunity makes the perforrn
ane-* of duty quite different. Some are
blessed with'wealth while 'others are less
fortunate; but we are promised if we are
content with our lot we will be h*'»py. M ill
some of the correspondents semi me a few
seeds of the velvet or slick okra: will send
postage or return favor in some way.

the columns of your valuable paper every
Week. I notice some of the sisters debating
on the be-t method of rearing children. I
have four little ones. I will give some rules
that 1 have tried to follow:
t i: gin training at a tender age. Children
should be punishi •! for disobedience or
anything you would not have them do
when older. Mother should m v.-r frighten
a < • ■ e ~C,. , : . to. A-k a.
child’s opin on of any household matter,
as it helps them to advance id as for
themscA' S Avoid making a promise to a
child unl'-.-'s V'tt i-.-m fulfill it. :is they will
soon lose confidence. Don’t punish a child
whin in : p: -sion; this is very wrong and
I’ve never seen it have a good effect.
Mrs. Flora B. Watson, Fair Blay, S. C.—
I was so impressed with Mrs. A. V. Mor

Mrs. E. D. Thompson, Hubbard Clfy,
Tex. I have been r. iding The Constitution
for ten years but have never written to
tin- woman's page, but my two little girls
have got up a email contribution for the
children's ward in tin- Grady hospital. They’
I mentioned the hospital to their little friends
I and cousins and told them they intended to
1 send some nickels, so they’ sent some also.
The children have been greatly Interested
In the hospital. Will send a list of the con
tributors. I have a quantity of home-raised
winter cabbage seed; will give to any’ that
will send a self-addressed envelope. If
any h ive flower seed to spare, would like
to have a few. any kind. Will say to those
w. tiing to takoia paper for their little, folks
they- < in't do better than to subscribe for

too careful as to what our children read;
take tlii-m a patter as soon as they can
read and see how delight, d they wifi be.
Mrs. Sudle Levert Wright, New Zion, fl.
C. —I want to say a word in favor of mis
sions. I sec no divtil i:g lim- between
foreign and domestic missions; it is all
God's work, and as near to my heart as
my own private devotions. “The New
Acts of the. Apostles,” by Arthur T. Pier
son, Is the grandest work upon the sub
ject of missions that the world has ever
sieit. It is the book of the century. The
chief pastors and bishops of all the differ
ent churches are studying It with rever
ence ::ml thanksgiving. This is Hie age of
missions, ami happy thrice is that man or
woman to whom God lias given the blessea
prlvih-gi- of l> -'.icing in a cause that lies so
near the divine heart.
J am always glad to see a letter In our
kingdom from those who are “shut in,”
or, :s someone Ims better expressed it,
those who are “free to serve." The warm
est place in my heart is for 'those who are
suffi ring. They need all the recreation
and sunshine that can be reflected into
their hearts and homes by those who min
gle with the busy world. Theirs, too, is a
blessed mission. Very dear, indeed, is that
soul to God to whom Hu has given tne
high privilege of suffering for Him. ,
1 cannot recommend tlie “Millennial
Dawn.” Especially would 1 warn the af
flicted of this work, for when out bucljes
are weak our whole nature sympathizes,
lienee we are often despondent, if we do
not enter tile highway of holiness here in
our present lives we will never have an
other opportunity of doing so. God does
not til'd a thousand years in which to per
li-i-t Hi.- people- it is often the work of an
instant to surrender ourselves to Christ,
tin- bap-ism of the holy ghost. He flocs
not deal with each one in th'- same way,
but ,-e cording to our different natures ami

A Clever Invention.
A little contrivance wh!e!i (became very
popular in England and which caused much
xx’onder and antu.-ai.ciit th'-ri- rceently
found its way to America. This unique
novelty is a clev< rly arranged imitation

did. You seem to See tlie bon.- in

an opaciie substance. Its popularity may
become as wiile-spr.-ad as tliat attained
several years since by "pigs in tin- clover.”
