THE DAY BEFORE THANKSGIVING.

Bobby. "We should always be thankful for blessings, shouldn't we, mamma?"

Mamma. "Yes, Bobby."

Bobby. "But blessings are not like arithmetic, are they?"

Mamma. "Of course not. Why should you be thankful for arithmetic?"

Bobby. "Because I knew my arithmetic to-day, and wasn't kept in."
