@ The widow ate her Thanksgiyi ing

never carved to form a part Of it.
After the deacon'S departure she re-
turned to the carving knife and even
tually managed TO saw off a piece of
the meat but she had no sooner tasted
it than she started for the kitchen to
interview the hired girl.
1t was three or four days before the
mystery was solved, for there was j
mystery. The turkey, which had been
killed three or four days ahead Of time
and hung up to freeze, had been cut
down and devoured by cats, and to
save himself from reproof the hired
man had killed a peacock and hung it
in its place.

 "No, but he put you up to it, or Grace Ferrall did. I wish Grace would let MT. Quarter alone. She has always been perfectly possessed to plague him. She seems unable to take him serious ly, and he simply hates 1t. I don't think he'd tolerate her if she were not his cousin"
 'I'm awfully sorry," was all Siward said, and for awhile he gloomily busied himself with whatever was brought to him.
 Don't look that way" came a low voice beside him.
 Do show everything as plainly as that?" he asked curiously.

 A pressionless stare, then with bow, quite perfunctory and noncom- initial. It was plain enough that he had not expected to meet Siward at Shotover House.
 Kemp Ferrall, dark, stocky, active man of forty, was in the act of drain ing glass when through the bottom he caught sight of Siward. He finish ed in gulp and advanced, one muscu- lar hand outstretched. Hello, Stephen! Heard you'd arrived, tried the Scotch and bolted with Sylvia Lands. That's all right, too, but you should have come for the opening day. Lots of na- tive woodcock-eh, Blinky?' turning to Lord Alderdene, and again to Si- ward, You know all these fellows Mortimer yonder''- There was the slightest ring in his voice, and Leroy Mortimer, red necked, bulky and heavy eyed, emptied his glass and came over, followed by Lord Alder dene, blinking madly through his shooting goggles and showing all his teeth like a pointer with tick. Cap tain Voucher, a gentleman with the vivid coloring of healthy groom on cold day, came up, followed by the Page boys, Willis and Gordon, who shook hands shyly, enchanted to be on easy terms with the notorious Mir. Si- ward. And, last of all, Tom O'Hara ar rived, reeking of the saddle and clink- ing pair of troopers spurs over the fioor-relics of his bloodless Porto Rico campaign with Squadron A.
 It was patent to every man present that the Kemp Ferralls had deter mined to ignore Siward's recent fool ishness, which indicated that he might reasonably expect the continued good will of several sets the orbits of which intersected in the social system of his native city. Indeed, the few qualified to snub him cared nothing about the matter, and was not likely that any body else would take the initiative in being disagreeable to young man the fortunes and misfortunes of whose race were part of the history of Man hattan Island.
