gether she gazed motionless into the
fire, whose ftful glow strove family to
tighten the gloom of the dreary day
now drawing rapidly to its close. Who
can fathom the mystery of a tall, angu-
lar woman with red hair? Who can in
terpret the stony silence that wells her
past? Who.shall say what tempests of
passion have swept over her when not
a soul was at hand'to incur the weird
horror of their reflex action?
And the storm ragged on.
Amid the uproar of the elements she
became suddenly conscious of loud,
imperious knocking at the door. She
went and opened it and large, raw
boned, shaggy-haired man with red
whiskers stepped inside.
Shaking the rain from mis- garments,
he inquired
"Does Mrs. Pancllsley live here?"
"She does"
"Are you Mrs. Pancksley?"
81 am"
GLOW changed! Do you remember"
he went on, with tremor in his voice,
that on stormy Thanksgiving day
twelve years ago you sent little boy
out to kill speckled hen for dinner?''
"Yes! Hiram, my boy, is it,
"Wait minute. Did you tell him
that if he didn't end that hen and chop
her head off in five minutes you would
skin him alive?"

"He didn't come back, did hep"
80 no! No!"
"Well, he's come back now. n
That will do, mother. Give me a
chance to breathe. Are you glad to
see me?"
80, Hiram! Hiram! To think that
my long lost son, that I'd given up all
idea of ever seeing again in this world,
has come back to mel It's too good to
be true!'

"that I've come back without the hem"
The tall, angular, rod-haired woman
resumed her seat in the Andrew jack
son rocl1ing-chair, rubbed her nose
thoughtfully, and gazcl into the fire.
Never mind, Hiram" she said, slow
ly. The spcclIlod hen is still alive.

waiter that set all the glasses and
crockery on the pantry shelves to
jingling in unison.
A family alteration was in ener-
getic progress. The guests looked at
each other and the hostess tried to
chatter it down. But no one human
throat was powerful enough for that.
''Send up them tomattuses."
81 tell you they amt none"
''They is, Miss Maria says they is"
81 tell you they amt, you ole black

cook. 81 dun forgot to open 'em,

Fanny darted across the room, pushed
her surprised parent into the pantry
and turned the key. With an air of
elaborate Indifference as though moth
ing had happened to mar the oc-
casion she removed the plates and
the dinner progressed. From the
depths of the pantry could be heard
the wailing of Jupiter: "If | KANT
wait I'm pow'ful at drivin', an it amt
no erthly use tryin' to appeah what
you amt. Ole Miss dun say" There
was peremptory command from below
to ''come down this minnit," great
creaking of the waiter and Jupiter
had descended on the vehicle of his
woe.
Mr.. Grimm looked at his wife and
she in turn looked at him. Between
them extended a massive epergne of
silver weighted with fruit and flowers;
tall candelabras and dainty bon-bon
dishes, strangely out of keeping with
the furniture and the tiny dining room.
There was look in his eyes that light
ened things, though, and the verge of
tearfulness was banished. Later, how
ever when the guests were gone and
she had had a good cry in his arms, she
said: John, Jupiter was right We
have no business trying to appear
what we are not, and whether we get
the position or whether we're never

thankful for to-day and for the rest of

ried the silver tureen. With the ex-
ception that he put his thumb in Mr. de
Posts soup and then wiped it dry with
his bandanna, that portion of the BAN
quet progressed favorably. But when
the raw oysters were served he took q
plate of macaroons from the side
board, and, doubtless mistaking them
for n new variety of crackers, gravely
offered them. The hostess flushed vio-
lently and tried to distract attention
from her husband who, though he said
only few words to Jupiter, had looked
such unutterabls things as to cause
aim to drop the dish on the sideboac,
with a bang. Presently he barely
grazed the minister's head with the
turkey platter. Feeling that energy
might compensate for the vacuity ex-
isting in his mind, Jupiter proceeded to
ply every one with the dishes on the
table. Sailed almonds and bonbons
careered about the board with light
ming rapidity. He even grasped. the
macaroons again, but sudden mis-
trust seemed to seize him and he
dropped the dish He was breathing
apparel seemed to grow smaller for
him.
The hostess strove bravely to appear
as if this was daily occurrence in every
well regulated household, and that
stream of gravy extending across the
cloth and down breadth of her best
gown was merely an adjunct of
Thanksgiving. The host forgot all the
speeches he had intended to make in
praise of the president-elect and all the
subtle antennae of diplomacy that he
was going to put forth to the minister
by way of starting affairs. He could
only feel rather than see, for he scarce
dared look up. That Mr.. de Post and
the executive-elects cousin were stor-

gale many a dinner table-he had
caught sufficient of their exchange OF
glances to rest assured of.

sense of humor. If he laughed rather

SUM OF ALL HOLIDAYS.
That Is Why Thanksgiving Should BE tho
Happiest of All.

Happiest of All.
We could not ask more suggestive
title or one which makes sweeter mu-
sic in an Americans ear This occa-
sion, says the New York Ledger, is diff
ferent from all other national holidays,
since it gathers them all up into one,
and with them unites every mercy of
the dying year, the bounties of its
harvests, the manifold gifts of white
winged commerce; the preservation of
peace and prosperity, and recognizes
each and every one in a gratitude DER
flowing with festivity and mirth.
Thanksgiving A word with which
to coniure happiness into the most dis
NAL and detected spirit. The personal
associations of this festival are per-
haps, its greatest sources of attraction.
The father and the mother expecting
John from the city and Mary from the
school, will recall the dear old days
when they, too, came home to roast
apples before the blazing logs, and
watch the ruddy glow glinting across
the polished mahogany, while
Half hidden in quiet nook, serene of look and
heart
Talking the old times over the parents sat
apart"
And what times they were, famous for
corn huskings unknown to this degen-
crate age, for moonlight straw rides
across the glistening snow and hoary
ghost legends of EIessian troopers.
Hence, Thanksgiving comes with redo
lent memories of past joys, blended
into the best and purest moments of
American life, its homes and its hearts.
Let fair summers robes pale and die,
and the frosted leaves rustic beneath
the tread. What cares Thanksgiving
day for winters stern heralds? In fact,
we welcome good November day that
the cold without may form a contrast
for the warmth within.
1t would disturb the eternal fitness
of things to eat the time-honored bird
and the national pie in the long, bright
days of leafy June.
No! The wise gobbler may contem-
plate perch upon the crescent of the
moon if he thinks fit, but he must
needs die, and, hanlled by cranberry
sauce and the constant pumpkin pie,
present himself to our view on the last
Thursday in November, and not day
earlier, please.
Then, as we cluster around the fire
and bid defiance to the elements, let
us remember to make Thanksgiving a
home-day, where all the dear ones will
gather, and eyes look love to eyes
which speak again.
1t must also be a happy day to everv-
body, from grandmother in the corner
to the cat slumbering at her feet. A
day for devout worship, joyous festiv,
ity, kindly deeds, old feuds healed up.
new friendships made; in short, a glo-
rious. oldfashioned Thanksgiving.

They were very young couple; that
accounted for it largely, and while the
affair was certainly ludicrous it was
not without touch of pathos They
both declare that they have better
sense now, and that the like, with
them at least, shall never occur again,
so there Can scarcely be any harm in
telling all about it.
When they went to housekeeping in
n modest way in a fashionable street
in the national capital rents were not
so high as they are now. They had
many friends, some of them very
wealthy ones, and, as her entire life
had been spent in Washington, she felt
that a change from single to double
blessedness would not-alter things ma
terially.
While the streets and her friends re-
manned unchanged there was certain
indefnable something that shaped it,
self presently-she could not entertain
as she had been used to in her fathers
house; neither on such scale, nor
with such lavish hospitality.
She fretted little, at first quietly,
then she confded her woes to her hus-
band, for she told him everything, and
he, good follow, took it very much to
heart.
Being a lawyer without any consid-
erable practice, for he was young
man in his profession, he did not see
his way out of it in that direction. But
the idea suddenly struck him that he
would try to get some kind of an of
fetal position. They had influential
friends in the political world, and it
appeared quite clear sailing.
The plan met with his wife's prompt
approval and she concluded on the spot
to begin the siege by giving a Thanks
giving dinner. Some people might
have thought it wiser to first get the
desired position and then give thanks,
but she looked upon it differently,
from the point of view of the almanac
as it were.
presidential candidate had Just
been elected and would take his seat

the church they attended was also the

to ask and to entertain her there was
young Mr.. de Post, who led cotillons
and gossip with equal facility.
While Mrs. Grimm had very pretty
glass and china, in keeping with the
rest of her modest establishment, it
did not seem grand enough for such a
