ing the elder sister, who was
the teacher. to board somewhere
and 90 on with her school In the sum-
mer they could perhaps let their house,
for Alton was near one Of the hill
towns where many people came to pass
the summer. SAT any rate" the aunt
had said kindly, "when you are fairly
here, we can talk over plans and do
what seems best" She was not rich
woman, and Nelly Ashurst was CRATE
full for such thonghtfulness, but her
mother, who had had many illnesses,
was only well among these high, dry
hills. and she sobbed to herself over
the old desk: This is an end of our
home, an end of our home!' There
seemed to be nowhere else to look, for
the winter at least. Perhaps when
summer came they could indeed come
back, and find some people who would
come to board in the pleasant old house.
But their independence and old free
ways were assailed; they must do what
they could now, and never any more
what they wished. Nelly Ashurst
mourned with the despair of youth.
She could almost feel her fathers hand
on her shoulder in kindly reproach, but
her trouble was all the more bitter,
poor girl, because it seemed in some
vague way to be arebuke to him whom
she loved and made her hero. She had
never felt the weight of pain and care
as she felt it now. She thought of her
mothers hopeless face.
nelly, where are you?" said her
mother, suddenly, just outside the door,
and Nelly dried her eyes in a hurry,
and crossed the room to stand before
the bookcase in the shadow. Nelly,
dear" said Mrs. Ashurst, coming in.
''Here are some letters, and the poor
old Dent sisters are coming up the
yard to see us-think of it, this cold
dav wish we had something-I re-
ally don't. know how to be poor at
Thanksgiving time, i" and her voice fall
tered. They shall have pie, at any
rate, and they shall come and sit in
here in the dear study-they will like
that best"
Mother, mother, quick" said Nelly.
Don't mind them, let them wait a
minute. Oh, see here!" and she held a
large letter sheet before her mothers
eyes. She had turned quite gray and
pale. 81 thought it was only some cir
cular, or something like that-it
was directed to father Somebody
who lived in Cuba-who died last
month, has left father and his heirs"
she could not hold her voice steady
''has left father in kind remembrance
of most helpful services in time of
need, fifty thousand dollars, to be paid
at once according to directions. Oh,
mother, mother"
Let me see it, dear" said the frail
little woman, shaking with excitement
and coming back across the room.
oh if your dear father were only
here! And how often have thought
that so many people were ungrateful,
and he always said that the poor had
the best paymaster, or that he only
asked for happiness enough to get his
work done, and was glad of the liberty
to use what skill he had-and now this
comes, like a gift of his provision, for
his girls and me! Why, Nelly, dear,
don't cry SOL"
"There are those two old Dents
knocking and knociking-could you let
them in, mother?" said Nelly, laughing
and crying at once. "Oh, what a
Thanksgiving we'll have! | wish Sister

room, being partially paralyzed from a
fall, but her mind is perfectly clear and
bright.
