CELIA.
rELIA. that I once was bleat
Is now the torment of my breast,
i Since to curse me you bereave me
! Of the pleasures! 1 possessed.
I Cruel creature to deceive me.
j First to love and then to leave me!
HAP you the bliss refused to grant.
Then I had never known the want,
j But possessing onco the blessing

Once possessing la but tasting.
-Tis no bliss that Is not lasting.

OLD TIME THANKSGIVING.
OVER the river and through the
k wood.
J T'i grandfather's house we go.
The horse knows the way
To carry the sleigh
Through the white and drifted snow.
Over the river and through the wood?
Oh, how the wind docs blow!
It stings the toes
And it bites the nose
As over the ground we go.
Over the river and through the wood.
To have a tlrst rate play.
Hear tho bells ring,
"Tlng-a-Ung-dlng!"
Hurrah for Thanksgiving day!
Over the river and through the wood
Trot fast, my dapple gray!
Spring over the ground
Like a hunting hound.
For this Is Thanksgiving day.
Over the river and through the wood
And straight through the barnyard gate
Wo seem to go
Extremely slow
It Is so hard to wait!
Over the river and through the wood
Now grandmother's cap I spy!
Hurrah for the fun!
Is the pudding done?
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie!
-Lydla Maria Child.
THE ORIOLE.
ONE of the ones that Midas touched.
Who failed to touch us all.
Was that contldlng prodigal.
Tho blissful oriole.
^JO drunk, he disavows It
With badinage divine:
So dazzling, we mistake him
For an alighting mine.
\ PLEADER, a dissembler.
An epicure, a thief.
Betimes an oratorio.
An ecstasy In chief.
rpHE splendor of a llurniah.
The meteor of birds.
Departing like a pageant
Of ballads and of bards.
I NEVER thought that Jason sought
For any golden ileece.
But. then. 1 am a rural man
With thoughts that make for peace.
BUT If there were a Jason

IN AUTUMN'S GARDENS.
O'ER quiet beaches shelving to the
sea
Tall mulleins sway, and thistles.
All day long
Flows In the wooing water
dreamily.
With subtle music in Its slumberous
song.
Jlerb-robert hears, and princess feather
bright.
And gold thread clasps the little skull
cap blue.
And troops of swallows, gathering for
their flight
O'er goldenrod and asters hold review.
The barren Island dreams In flowers, while
blow
The south winds, drawing haze o'er sea
and land.
Yet the great heart of ocean, throbbing
slow.
Makes the frail blossoms vibrate where
they stand
And hints of heavier pulses soon to shake
Its mighty breast when summer is no
more.
And devastating waves sweep on and
break
And clasp with girdle white the iron
shore.

There Is no price set on the lavish sum

like music and had hardly any percep- j
tlon of it. Me knew, be said, "a drum j
from a trumpet and a bagpipe from a
guitar, which was about the extent of
liis knowledge of musick," and he also
said that It seemed to be a "method
of employing the mind, without the
labor of thinking at all and with some ;
applause from a man's self." But in
the highlands be appeared to be dis
tinctly fond of the bagpipes "and used
often to stand for some time with his
ear close to the great droue."? London

A remedy which cured years ago.
which has kopt the kidneys In good
health since, can be relied upon to
perform the same work in other cas
es. Head this:
R. C. Fonton, 3905 N. Cheyenne St.
Tacoma, Wash., says: "I gave a state
mont for publication, tolling of my ex
perience with Doans Kidney Pills som
years ago and I am now pleased to
confirm all I then said in their favor.
I was afflicted with kidney trouble
and finally I became so bad off that
I was obliged to give up my work.
I had dull, heavy pains through my
kidnoys and on ono occasion I was
confined to my bed for almost a
month. The unnatural condition of
the kidney secretions also plainly de
noted that my kidneys needed atten
tion. When I learned of Doan's Kid
ney Pills, I procured a box and be
gan their use. I felt great relief
from tho first and before long my
trouble was entirely disposed of. I
have since had no return of kidney
complaint"
