overworked and underfed mother.
' She herself was overworked and underfed; she bad never In all her nine
years known a satisfied appetite,
She bad been thinking, as she walked alone, how wonderful life must
be to those people she saw driving about in groat motor cars; wearing Just
suck rich garments as she saw displayed In shop windows when she passed
the big shops.
.. Bha had never known the comfort of really warm clothes and winter
since she could remember,

where, for nobody knows how many weary miles.
He stood with bowed and dejected head, breathing hard, whllp be
rested for a few moments, before his driver returned to urgo him on.
The heart of the little girl swelled with a sudden feeling of comrade
ship. The heaven-born emotion of sympathy took possession of her and drove
out self-pity.
Sher slipped her thin arm about the long nose of the old horse and
pressed her cheek close to his. v-

"We can take oft our shoes and soak our feet in warm water when they
ache too hard. But you can't. And we can go to tho hospital when we get
real sick; mother did. That was after she told the boss at the factory how
her head and back ached, and about the chill. Then he knew she was sick.

Today our thanks to Heaven above ascend through Wlntor's chill-touched

Divided millions Join today there rises all our nation's prayer;
For all we are and long to be for failure linked with hope to rise,
To Thee, oh God, we send, today Thanksgiving past November's skies.
We thank Thee, God, because the day must ever follow darksome night;
We thank Thee that our bleeding feet still bear us onward' to the, fight;
Because w e'er may try again," because of hope that does not die,
Because of Joy the sunshine gives our thanks today rise to the sky,
The spirit of Thy heart, oh God, great Liberty
Has taught us how to write a nation-honored story;
Freedom we knew to rls from hampering clod.
For all this glory
Thanksgiving surges from our hearts today

Have you not often noticed how charm

only nho arranges her hair beeomlnRty?
Herein lies a bit of very deep philoso
phy. To arrange your hair well, you
must havo soft, plentiful locks. To havo
soft, plentiful locks you must glvo them
plentiful care.
Hair that Is dank and greasy falls with
a lifeless droop Dint Is Just ns unboiiutl-
ful as the words I have used to describe
them. It arranges Itself with unbecoming
Indifference to all your desires to ar
range It. Give but half tho effort that
you waste on uncared-for holr to car
ing for It scientifically and, oven It
you are a plsln Woman, you will soon
grow from adorably plain to plainly
adorable.
I have a little hair drill that I practice
every day. Will you follow my example,
niadame?
On rising I 'wash my scslp with water.

Water bad for tho hair? Mais non. That
Is not so. Water Is good for nil growing
things. Of course, If your hair Is wet
and you dress It so, It will be harmed.
It you fold wet garments and lay1 thoin
awayithey will mildew,' you know. But 1
waah'the scalp1, and so cleanse It from
dust and foreign particles that might
clog Its pores.' ' First, then, wash the
scalp1. Feed the roots of your hair with
a wee drink 'of water.
Then, even f at.flrst It pains you n bit,
brush the hair with a stiff brush that
will penetrate to the scalp. Brush thus
for twenty minutes. Brush your . hair
continually, constantly. Always brush It
for several minutes at a time. Comb as
little as possible. Stimulate the scalp,
Do not Irritate It.
Now perform the rest of your toilet
with your hair hanging loosely, open to
the air.. If you can, sit at a sunny win

Water, air, sunshine all 1n moderation
are the best, because the most natural,

If yoUr hair Is1 very dry, buy some sim

I Thanksgivtag Day j
By ItKV. THOMAS II. GREGORY.
The great social and religious festival
known as 'Thanksgiving" dates buck to
the Pilgrims and ,Purltan of New Eng
land, The sentiment of gratitude for
favors granted Is
as old as humanity,
and ages before
the Massachusetts
settlers were born
mankind was In
the habit of ex
pressing Its thank
fulness by some
form of public
celebration. Ii u t
the Institution of
Than ksglvlng as
an annual festival
of thanks and
praise for blessing
received at the hands of the Great
Author of our being had Its origin among
the founders ot New England.
For reasons which were "good and
sufficient" unto themselves, the Puritans
abolished Christmas, and feeling the need
of some other day to replace It, they In
stituted Thanksgiving day After tho
first harvest of the New England colon
ists Governor Bradford ordered a public
rejoicing with prayer and praise. This,
was In October, or November, 1621. On

hair cells aro tiny and can take up 'but a
small amount. If thfs Is carefully applied
and rubbed In once a . week, and the
shampoo Indulged In but once a month,
dry hair should' soon have a natural
gloss and luster and now llfo, too.
If you are a victim of dandruff, apply
this simple tonlo three times a week:
Four ounces Imported bay rum, ten

reliable hair specialist. If your scalp Is
diseased you must havo the germ of sick
ness killed.
For healthy hair I recommend a fort
nightly shampoo. And bo sure that oc
casionally just before your shampoo you
have tho split and broken ends of your
hair singed or cut. It makes little dif

are above tho superstition of our bour

giving, the first ever appointed by a
governor In an authoritative way. On
February 22. 1631, thero occurred In
Boston the first Thanksgiving celebra
tion of which any written account re
mains among the colonial archives. The
first regular Thanksgiving proclamation
was printed in Massachusetts In 1677.
Tho first Thanksgiving proclamation
ever Issued by a president of the United
States was by George Washington, in
17S5. From Massachusetts the custom
spread to the other colonies. In 1SS0 tho.
governor of Xw York appointed a jdaV
for public thanksgiving, and other north
ern states quickly followed.
In the south Thanksgiving day was
practically unknown till about 1SS6, when
Governor John qf Virginia urged the
observance of the day in a letter to the
legislature! but tho idea met with hot
opposition, on tho ground that It was a
"New England superstition." and the
wiped out by the civil, war. In ISM Presi
dent Lincoln Issued a Thanksgiving
proclamation, which was .followed by the
governors of most of the states; and we
may say that since that year Thanks
giving has been an annual holiday
throughout the entire country.
About the institution as it exists to
day there Is nothing sectarian or sec
tional, but over the entire, union the day
Is observed by all Americans alike as the
time for family reunion, good cheer and
general rejoicing and gratitude.
