Oetirrlaht, 1010 hv JM. M. A, IVibe. All

rpHB New Kngland fishermen have
concocted many delirious dishes
trkleh are made with fish te replace
meat, (or these folk who abide by the
sea acquire a particular liking for the
denliens of the deep ocean.
Old Captain Beckert, n lisherman who
owns several fisheries that produce (01
him a splendid iucemc, says that if
the housewife would but try some of
the coarse fish, sucn as scrod or hake,
in place of meat, she would materially
reduce her meat hill nnd at the same
time present the family with h di.h con.
Ulnlng mere nutriment nnd mere satis
faction te their appetites.
Most persons knew that fish may be
boiled, fried or broiled nnd occasionally
baked. Hence, I am bringing te this rer
ner this week some delicious Down
East recipes from the kitchen of the '
fishcrfelk.

Dear Cynthia "Miss French' Bow Bew

query. Unhappily, that's Just what I
wish te discover. Why, peer human

mind can untavel the mystery. Like
Wntaen In the Sherlock Helmes stories,

te have me describe the effects? Hew is
It that she of the feminine half, and of
the educated, icflncd portion, will go te
all the hartewlng work of organizing
women's clubs, prepare fiery speeches
nnd lengthy essas for magazines, pull
limpid creased-up cealtalls of slow slew
thinking, slew-moving politicians
haunted with the fearful thought of
fatty degeneration et the heart? And
for what? Haven't you guessed It be be bo
fero" Why. betterment of the ninirlage
state. Isn't money the nintk et suc

ful men? And don't men "like" money
because women llke It? Are net meter
mashers the obvious dlclples of this re
ligion, viz. the hypnotic power et suc
cess en the female mind'' And yet
here comes that big why again ' Hew
came this sex te pieduce a Juliet?
Juliet mind you. who sought denth
rather than be separated from her be
loved, and never, never asked Bernee
If he could pav the lent. Wasn't that
wonderful? Who can say but that an
nllwlse creator has thrown thl curtain
of mystery purposely between the sexes
nnd that It Is death te peer behind it .'
Ne doubt If we could view each ether
with all the veneer rubbed off and
minus the smoothing power of sand
paper marrlage would dwindle te the
size of n ham sandwich In a tenderloin
lodging house. The chorus could be.
"Oh, shucks, she wasn't much after all."
Did 1 shock you? KENS1NCTON.

WE OVERLOOK BLESSINGS
ON THANKSGIVING DAY
1 ,
Wc Have Been Taking Se Many of Them as Our Due Without
Showing Appreciation That We Find It Hard te
Realize jfTiem.
TIIR father of the heroine in a cer
tain novel was much nmuscd with
whnt he called his daughter's "ecsta
sies." Shn thought everything wns "won
derful." If she looked up nt the sky nc night
she thought the stars, se far away and
se silent, were "wonderful I"
When she trudged through drifting
snow In the cold she cried Joyeusly:
"Isn't Jt wonderful?"
Her sense of appreciation wns refresh
ing; there arc se few of us nowadays
who ever really appreciate things te
the utmost.
Wc have get Inte a bad habit of tak
ing everything for granted.
When Thanksgiving Day come along
wc wonder vaguely what special bless
ing we should be thankful for.
We are delighted if we arc fertunntc
enough, te be nblc te afford a ttirkcv ;
we nre glad if wn have been lucky
enough te get tickets for the football
game or the theatre, nnd nt the end
of it long, pleasant day we decide grate
fully that it vvns a pretty geed dinner.
BUT think of the comforts, conveni
ences, luxuries thnt we ncccpt
without se much as a pleasant smile.
The warm, comfortable theatre that
wc rlt in te see the play, thvihuge, well
built grandstand from which vvf watch
the game, the firelcss cooker or M "Ven
in which our dinner is cooked; the con cen
vevnncc which brings us home or the
health which enables us te walk home
why. nil et them arc things te be thank
ful for.

Give Thanks
WHENEVER you get the idea that your let I a particularly bard one, give
n thought te the Pilgrim te whom you ewe thanks for nt least one extr
day off every November, and perhaps for the very privilege of making n living
in thl goed'old I. H. A.
Over n hundred settler came ever In the Mayflower. Ry the end of the
first winter the little colony had been se sorely tried that only fifty-five remained
alive.
Se hostile and se watchful were the Indians thnt the Pilgrims had te bury
their dend without tombstones thnt the terrible extent te which the little band
had dwindled would net be known.
They were mewed down by cold, hunger nnd disease.
Starved wolves would come iu out of the forest, sit en their tails and grin
nt the Pilgrims ns they made their fire, n though nware that their numbers
were ginilually growing fewer, their fuel less, the end nearer.
Your let a particularly hard one. did you say?
Hew would you like te ex,chnngc it for the Pilgrims' for a winter or two?
Whnt de ou suppose the Pilgrims would have given for steam hent, for
corner butcher and grocer, for skilled ph.vsicinns nud up-te-date hospitals?
What de ou suppose the Pilgrims would hnve given for n police depart
ment, for a fire department, for n subway?
What de j nu suppose they would have given te.be able te attend a free
night school, n lecture retire. or n public library instend of having te shiver
nil night long while standing giinrd, against stealthy savages nnd ferocious
nnimnls?
What de jeu suppose they would have given te be able simply te go about
their business nnd make n living, instead of being censtnntly in fenr nnd dnnjer
of sudden death?
Whenever jeu get the Idea that your let is n particularly hard one, give a
thought te the Pilgrim.
Then
(Jive thanks te your lucky stars for their having seen te it that you are
nlive nnd kicking in lOliO instead of lOL'O.
And show veur thank bv exnleltinc te the fullest the onnertunities that

you be thankful about It? 0uM
Why, just for the novelty of It if
you can think of no better reason! '
It would be something new for .
great many of us te be grateful for our
blessings Instead of taking them ns our
due.
IT HAS been se long since we hare
exclaimed in appreciation of anv.
thing that It would be like a trip back
into our childhood.
Civilization and progress are girinr
us mero conveniences every day ; for a
while they seem remarkable because thsj
are se new; then we get accustomed
te them and thev are labeled back num
ber. and put aside for the next one.
Wc can't always keep our enthusiasm
for n novelty, but we can retain tsem
of that refreshing appreciation of th
blessings of this life which keeps ui
from becoming satiated and bored.
Try It this coming year: train your
self te appreciate the small things thit
you have always had and always will
have.
You'll find this little self-made rift
very convenient when next Thinks.
