SOME GOOD IN HON. SOCCER

"For long time my pet detestation was the Hon. Bascom Bogger," con- fessed the Old Codger ''He is a born honorable, who was twice elected to trifing offices, which encouraged him so that he never ceased being a candf- date. To the casual observer about all he ever does is to strut and utter pOn- derous pif1le. Wherever you go you are fairly certain to encounter him praying his bombastic bunllum. As 8 matter Of fact, lie Is horse doctor on she side, ant as horses are easily fool ed he enjoys tolerably fair practice.
 "But the other day I discovered him In new role. Death visited rickety shack down by the brickyard, and be- cause the poor family had no friends the Hon. Bascom Bogger butted in and bossed the obsequies. He rustled up pallbearers, bullied several people into putting their vehicles in the process sion, started the hymns and sang them through in his burly voice, and man. aged the affair so successfully that the miserable family felt quite proud of themselves and the function. I found out that he made practice of attend ing the funerals of poor people and in- fusing as much life and pep into them as Is possible to get into such events. So, somehow, since I made the discov- cry the Hon. Bascom Bogger hasn't seemed quite so tiresome to me as formerly. y."-Kansas City Star.

but a lamp was lighted in the dim best room that evening, and at nine o'clock the old woman took a bed room candle in either hand and toiled up the creaking stair. On the little stand beside each bed she placed 8 brass candlestick, and, having turned pack the sheets, went out again, mur- muring soft goodnight"
 Mrs. Tetlow arose at dawn, and be- fore 1t was time to prepare breakfast she had dressed her turkey and set 1t aside, ready for the oven.
 About nine o'clock she began to lay her table.
 Having smoothed out every wrinkle In the cloth, she gathered all her ge- ran1um blossoms and put them in the center of the table in a glass bowl. Then the silver, which had all been polished the day before, was brought forth from it's canton flannel wrap pings, and Great-grandma Tetlow's blue china was lifted down from the shelves of the china closet.
 How good it is to see all these things out again. p exclaimed the old lady, surveying the result of her labor with pardonable pride; "and it's right good to have company once more," she added with little sigh; i've eaten alone so long"
 Eve nothing to do now" she said. but to sit at the front window and watch for the folks to come. I'll be | able to see them far up the meadow road"
 A few minutes later she was star tied by hearing knock at the front door, and, quite trembling with the shock, she arose to open 1t. Good morning, Mrs. Tetlow." It was Mrs. Clifford, the young doctors wife, who spoke. Good morning, Mrs, | Tetlow. Isn't this beautiful Thanks giving day? Madam Clifford is out in the carriage and she wants to take you home to have dinner with us. Please say you'll come; and let me get your bonnet and shawl for you" Mrs. Tetlow looked down into the bright young face, with a dreamy hap piness in her own as she slowly shook her head.
 You're real good" she said, "and please tell Madam Clifford I'm just as l much obliged to her, but I can't come today. Tm-Tm looking for company"
 There was a ring of tremulous pride in the old voice that went to the heart of the young woman. She look ed up into the wrinkled old face and noted the strange glow of content and far-off happiness in the old eyes Mrs. Clifford remembered it afterward with a sense of awe.
 As she turned to go now she saw, through the open door, a corner of the long table, all ready for dinner.
 "I'm so glad for you, Mrs. Tetlow '" she exclaimed impulsively. 'I hope you will have pleasant Thanksgiving day" Then she hurried back to her carriage, and Mrs. Tetlow returned to her roclking-chair by the window
 "They're real late," she murmured to herself now and then, and new, strange weariness and numbness crept over her as she sat and waited, her uln VlSlOn StIii "dhueIins HIT up tne meadow road.
 Suddenly she started forward with outstretched arms. "Peterr p she cried. Mary !" and then sank back feebly in her chair. I'm right glad to see you all," she faltered, ''but I seem to be a little tired. Just lay off your things and draw up near the fire. It is grow ing chilly" She drew her shawl clos CT about her, with little shiver as she spoke.

 Her gaze wandered up the meadow road" again, the joyous look returning, "They're coming!" she cried at length. '"They're coming; can see the sleigh" Then she turned, as though some one had touched her elbow, and started back wonderingly.
 "My little Mary!" she faltered, with dimming eyes, "my little Mary. with her old rag baby thought-oIi, fath- er John. here is our little NIary!"

 He hurried up the path and lifted the heavy knocker, but no one an swered. Then the doctor opened the door and walked in.
