At a town meeting, called for the
purpose, it was resolved to have the
widows house rebuilt ready for occu-

furnished money, others contributed
materials, and others still volunteered
to do the work.
There were delays and setbacks,
however, as is usual whenever any
work is promised at certain, fixed
time, SO that when Thanksgiving
morning arrived the problem of COM
pleting the job became knotty, but
having been promised and undertaken,
it had to be finished. By hard think

mince pies are already ripe on the
pantry shelves. Then bring every
thing here by 4 o'clock. We men will
finish this house for the widow by
that time, and we'll all eat our
Thanksgiving dinner on the spot. 1t

dinner and an old-fashioned barn-rais-

girls, get all the boxes and barrels

wood in my back yard that won't be

The house was on hand at the hour

OF course, the house was not big

Naturally careless and reckless, Mr..

She climbed the tree and reached
the big limb after encountering numer-
