FORE"
This simple little paragraph had
been copied and recopied, and dis
cussed, AMI made the theme for count
less stories and ballads.
But Jack, who uttered it, didn't die.
He lived to return to America, was
honorably discharged, and resolved 10
pass another Thanksgiving in the old
neighborhood where his young days
had been spent. So he returned, after
an absence of nearly ten years, and
was at the house of his rather on this
evening, gazing sadly into the fire
which seemed to reflect his own ach-
ing heart.
What was life to him now?
That chief charm, that only light
to his soul. had gone out, leaving all
gloom and darkness.
He YVES like an old man.
His hair, once dark as the raven
wing, showed traces of silver in it,
and his face, so handsome, clear and
fresh, now had the lines of care upon
it.
Though he sometimes smiled and as
sumed an appearance of gayety, his
mother knew that his heart was sad.
But that mother had a hope that
happiness would yet dawn on her son.
She had piece of intelligence she
had not broken to him. Queenie Ora
ham, after an absence of ten years,
had returned to visit an aunt.
There was to be great Thanksgiv-
ing party at Jacks grandmother's, the
Oldest lady in the neighborhood, at
which she was to invite all the young
folks, for Grandma Goodwin" took
great pleasure in young people.
Queenie would no doubt be there
and she determined that Jack should
meet her. The mother knew that her
sons pride would keep him away if
he knew Queenie was to be there, SO
she kept that surprise secret from
him.
She little, knew how love had hum
EblA Jacks pride.
In the vest pocket of the veteran, he
carried the self same ring which
Queenie had thrust back on him ten
years before. It was next his heart
when he stormed San Juan hill. and
he hoped II he was slain the bullet
would pass within the golden circle
of his youthful love, and that he might
die with her name on his Inns.
But fate destined Jack to- live. He
was once more home. among friends
who had crowded about to- hear him

Of death.

seated by the glowing embers in the
gloomy old firelit hall, watching the
fame retreat, advance, flare up in
splendor, and then die into a dull
glow, was Jack Long. Thirty-fve
years had elapsed since Jack first saw
the Aght of day, and his life had been
as full of joy and misery, Of light and
shadows, as the ordinary life of man
kind.
Typical of the ever-burning glow
was q love within las heart which ten
years had not smothered.
Like the fire fame leaping high and
sinking low, was the hope in his
breast.
AS Jack sat there alone, gazing into
the fire, thoughts of bygone days came
over him, trooping at his memory's
call.
Mingled with those memories was a
fair and radiant maiden, with hair O,
sunshine and eyes of azure. This i'm.
age conjured up so vivid and lifelike
was his loving, laughing sweetheart.
Queenle Graham, as she looked OH that
Thanksgiving night so long ago.
1t would be ten years on the NOR
row since he had last gazed upon the
dimpled, smiling. roguish face which
he loved so well.
They were then betrothed, and sc
wore the betrothal ring which he had
placed upon her finger only few
weeks before.
How vivid that picture came before
his eyes. Ten years seemed to have
rolleu backward, and he was a youth
OF 70 again, and Queenie Graham, his
adored one. q blushing maiden of is.
The old-fashioned farmhouse, with
white, oaken floor, and the boys witt,
their sweethearts, and the jolly old
fiddler who played half asleep, only
awaking to call out in deep, stentor-
tous tones:

The lamps swinging from the ceiling
flooded the scene with the most bril-
liant light.
Gay laughter and jest told of light
hearts, and happy faces glowed to the
soul-stirring music of the Irish Wash

GUS when she smiled on Sam Brown,
and in swinging partners Sam held

ardently to suit the jealous lover.
"Queenie, you're a fiirt," he de-

She turned on him with proud,
flashing eyes, and said:

1T is false, Queenie." he cried, in
his indignation. Susie Bell was a
round-faced, ugly country girl with no
attractions, and tongue given to mis-
chief making. .,..
The dance went on, and the lovers
quarrel with it. AS Jack and Queenie
whirled in the giddy mazes of the
dance that silly, childish quarrel
waxed hot, enhancing her beauty with
every angry word she uttered.
