down stairs and out of the door. No
one heard me.

SO waited close by until he came OUT
or the house. I was afraid that after
all he would not listen, but the mo-

at me all over through his glasses.
Dear, dear, he said, my poor
child, what do you want

He answered right away. Certainly:

drive
When the black boy lifted me into
the gig he laughed and said:
Well, little rag-Dag where shall I
take you?"
Just that moment forgot our num-
Der, so I pointed.
Uncle Jefferson sat down on the
other side of me, and away we went,

Then I told her about the old coat
and she told everybody else, and thew
laughed, Uncle Jefferson louder than
all the others.
Mamma said it was the very hap
piest Thanksgiving Day she had ever

the very best Thanksgiving dinner

he always called me his THANKSGIVING

AS the horses drew the wagon along
between the rows of people on either
side of the street the man on the seat
was greeted by many waves of the
hand. He pulled his team into the
rude sidewalk near a small group of
men. ken yer tell me tner way to
Jim Crawford So" he asked politely.
A frown spread over the faces of the
men. For a minute no one spoke.
The man on the wagon waited ex-
pectantly.
Jim Crawford's is right up thar"
finally answered a stout young fell
lew, throwing up his open hand with
fingers pointing in all directions.
"And when yer git ter the fork of the
road, jest take the fork hand" A
laugh from the crowd greeted his
rough jest. The man on the wagon
showed slight red tinge under the
swarthy tan of his face.
II amt here to raise no row." he
said, looking the short young man
squarely in the eye. But yer could
be er darn sight more civil to err
stranger" His peculiar drawl affect
ed the risibilities of the crowd, and a
loud laugh rang out on the air. When
the rough wells had subsidized a small
girl stepped out from behind the men.
Hers was the dark complexion of the
half-breed.
"Ill tell yer wher' OIL Jim lives. !"
she cried. The men turned around
abruptly. "Jes' foller this road to
Their forks and then take Their road ter
yer right. or Jim's is erbout 300
yards from the last cabin" she said
pointing to the distant hut. The men
sneered at her and one of them
grabbed at her dress, but she easily
eluded them and passed on up the
street.
The tall man clucked to his horses
and the wagon moved on. After driv-
ing few yards he saw to his left
across the street the sign of the Big
Horn saloon. sudden idea seemed
to strike him. He again pulled his
horses into the side of the street and
got down from his seat.
Friends" he said, will yer all

ter show that Their amt no hard feel

| The crowd was staggered at first
but soon responded joyfully, conclud-
ing that the stranger was a pretty
good fellow although he was going
to work for "Ol Jim Crawford

asked Shorty Johnson, as icy lined
up before the bar.

The men looked approvingly at the
size of his whiskey
Anybody with yer?"
A few minutes later lobe Johnson
drove slowly away from the Big Horn
followed by the lusty cheers of his
newly gained friends.
II was conceded on all hands that
lobe Johnson was the best fellow that
had ever struck spade in or Jim's
dlgglngs. Old Jim, himself, was a
stlngy, avaricious old fellow who was
held in absolute contempt by the citi-
zens of Bear Creek. He lived a short
distance from the center of the town

In planning for our THANKSGIVING

baked with bread dressing favored
with herbs and onions. A menu that
is semi-old- fashioned but usually liked
is oyster soup, roast turkey with
mashed potatoes, turnips, baked
squash, pickles-sweet and sour-jel-
lies; salad, mince and pumpkin pic:
fruit, nuts and coffee. 1t is we'll to
have some kind of light pudding for
those who do not eat pie. If oysters
cannot be procured, vegetable oysters
may be substituted. Cream tomato is
favorite kind of soup.

'No, by lingo, I won't go!"

he walked quickly to the cradle and
lifted the little thing in his arms.
"No. by lingo. I won't go!'' he CRIED
fiercely to the men. For the moment
they were stupefied. Then they bowed
,--eir heads and walked slowly from
the room.
WAS it the look in the soft blue
eyes?" they unused. WAS it the smile
of his lost love he saw?'
