the children and grandchildren had
promised to come home for a regular
good, old-fashioucd time, and at the
last moment letters and kilograms
came which proved beyond doubt
that not one of them could come!
After the first outburst of grief and
dismay was over. another perpleXity
stared them in the face. Here was the
whole delightful old farmhouse ready
for the expected guests; four chambers
with beds aired and beautifully made
up, to say nothing of the dear old trun-
dlc-bed and cradle brought down from
the attic for the baby grandchildren.
The plumpcst, fattcst of little pigs was
ready to roast in the big brick oven, II
turkey that never could be surpassed
was ready for its oyster dressing, while
there were rows upon rows Of tooth
some mince, pumpkin, apple and cram
berry pies on the pantry shelves. There
were cookies enough in the big stone
jars to last those blessed grandchildren
month, on the lowest shelf, just as
handy as could he for the little dears to
help themselves to say nothing of the
frosted cakes and everything that could
be dreamed of for the great feast. This
was to be an especial occasion; the very
first time it had seemed possible for
them to think of such "A thing since
dear little Nat had gone home to
Heaven. What could be done with all
these vast preparations!
As the dear old people sat before the
bright open fire talking the matter
over, accepting the great disappoint-
mcnt, as people learn to who have had
plenty of them all the way through
life, the cat, which had been frolicliing
about in n most unbecoming way for
one of her years, gave a spring at little
Mats crutches, which stood in the
corner, and they tumbled down with a
great clattcr Instantly bright flash
swept over Father Gray's ruddy face
40 wife! believe Nat has sent us a
message from Heaven! You know about
the Bible feast, bringing them in from
'hc highways and hedges. The pig,
and turkey, and pies and puddings
have got to be eaten. Suppose we
have fresh air Thanksgiving party,
tor dozen poor afflicted fellows like
our Nat, not too sick to eat mind you,
bu' halt and lame, and blind and mis-
erabie
"NoE blessed old dear!" exclaimed
Mother Gray, actually getting up and
going over to her spouse and giving
him an afIe, ,ionate hug and several
kisses, "Notning could he better than
that. Perhaps it's Il providence after
all that none OF our children could
come, So we could do this beautiful
thing for some of the Lords afflicted
ones"
The clock struck ten-eleyen--beforc

and plans for the Jolly good time they

Missed at Christmas.

In looking back only one short
year, note how many friends and
neighbors have been taken from
our very midst. We shall miss
their familiar hand clasp on Christ
mas morn, and see but their va
cant chair beside the fire and their
empty place at the dinner table.
No more for them will the organ
in the church roll out its notes of
joy. Yet let us who linger here
have faith in believing that now
unto them white robes have been
given, and a new name written in
that far city from which they shall
go out no more.
And in this present winter, filled
with never ending struggles to
keep the wolf from the door, will
not some busy Christmas shoppers
turn aside a minute from the fas-
cinations of the brilliant shops and
buy a gift or two where the pur
chase will mean more than glad
ness to some poor and anxious
worker.

Establish Soup Houses.

A movement should be inaugu-
rated to establish two OF three
soup houses in our city, where the
needy poor can be fed by applying
for sustenance. The trimmings
from the meat which otherwise
goes to waste at the butcher shops
could be applied to the purpose.
Here is an opportunity for the
Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton and all others interested in
furthering charitable projects, to
exert themselves.

excursion ticket to the Pacific
coast, good until April 80, 1894,
and with unlimited stop-over priv
leges west of the Missouri and ST.
Paul for $rao.7o. Tickets and in
