rain was pouring outside and the
girl across the hall let tantalizing
odors escape her doorway. Suddenly
he determined to ask her for cream to
go with his coffee.
AS he went swinging through his
doorway he almost collided with
Lydia. who stood just outside blush
ingly Offering him tray containing
generous share Of her good dinner.
"Bread cast upon the waters" she
said smilingly, land the cranberries
you cast back into the bag have re-
turned to you. I just couldn't bear
not to share my Thanksgiving dinner
with some one;" there was a tremu-
lous catch In her voice. "And YOU
seemed to be as alone as I; will you
take this?" timidly.
"You are unspeakably kind" said
the young man, as he took the tray.
"And wonderful cook BESIDES" inhal-
ing the odor Of the tempting food. II
was coming over to ask you for some
cream on the chance that you'd be
neighborly, but I didn't dream of such
a neighborliness : this"
Lydia caught lie yearning glance
il his eyes as he looked through her
open doorway at the daintily set table,
and as she returned to that table there
were tears Of gratitude in her own
eyes at the thought of having at least
shared some of her Thanksgiving with
another.
AS for the young man across the
hall, he did some hard thinking as he
ate his lonely dinner. The drift of his
thinking was discernible afterward in
his muttered remarks as he stood with
his hands in his pockets and stared out
through the rain-rirp.ed window at the
reflection Of the lights in the shiny wet
street below.
'The way to a mans heart may be

studious neighbor was an artist. She
thought he looked too businesslike and
practical for that.
Lydia smiled and blushed as she re-
called the episode the evening before
when her spilled cranberries had
crunched under the good-sized feet of
this young man, who had come strid-
ling from his apartment while she was
stopping in the marrow corridor to re-
place the scattered berries in the pa
per bag that had turned turtle when
she inserted her latch Key. There
had been stammering apologies from

both, and although the young man had
helped to recover the berries, he had
re-entered his apartment so abruptly
that Lydia was puzzled to know wheth-
er he was displeased or embarrassed
by the incident.
Just when Lydla's chicken reached
the right degree Of provinces the
young man in the suite across the hall
completed the mixing Of the last lines
in the plans he was to enter in the
prize competition for design for a
new public buiiG.ng. His deep sigh of
satisfied relief at the finished task was
followed almost Immediately by the
thought that he was very hungry. He,
too had fancy for cooking and had
taken the apartment that he might
have, in addition to uninterrupted op-
portuAity for study, the privilege of
coffee and eggs Just 20 suit
his breakfast taste.
A cold, drlzzling rain made the out
doors so uninviting that the young
man decided to have a broiled bacon
and coffee and cheese at
home instead of going out for lone
dinner in cafe. He opened the door
Of the icebox and shut it with slam,
for he found that he had no cream,
and he liked q lot Of cream in his cof-
fee. Now, lonely man or hungry
man will frequently go far from con-
ventionality. John Parker was both
lonely and hungry; his supply of cream
was exhausted and the grocery stores

~ said Lydia, who had loved to
( A,N cook from the days when
(SSH%4 she baked mud pies in the
V495S sun until the nights when
$50 she made fudge in a chatting
+" dish. Il was partly because
Of her taste for cooking and partly be-
cause Of her distaste for boarding
house life that she gladly ayailed her
self Of suite in the first one-tenant
apartment house erected in her city.
Her living room with its tiny fireplace
was fianked on one end by bathroom
and a bed closet, and on the other
by a complete and compact kitchen
cite.
On Thanksgiving day Lydia fitted
from room to room singing gay
esnatches Of song. Her trim little fig
ure was lost in the lOoseness of a long
sleeved white apron with which her for
mer landlady had endowed her Wien
she set out on this housekeeping ven
ture. Her auburn hair was soft about
her flushed face and her blue eyes were
bright with enthusiasm as she concoct-

/. The plump chicken browning in the
Tiny oven was small, and the quivering
mold of cranberry jelly just turned
put was small, yet there was much
more of each than Lydia alone could
Eat, healthy and hungry as she was.
This thought came to her as she was
arranging pieces of toast for aspara-
gus and with the thought came hos
pitable longing to share her good din
ner with some one else who was
healthy and hungry. The girls who
we're her co-workers in the public
library either had homes in the city
or had gone to their homes outside
the city for Thanksgiving holiday, and
besides them she had made few ac-
quaintances in the city, so she could
think Of no one to invite.
She reflected that there must be
many lonely people In that city who
would gladly share with her the dainty
meal that was now almost ready to
serve. Then she thought OF the young
man who lived alone in the suite across
the hall from hers and Of whorn she
had caught occasional glilnpses
through his open door as he bent spec
tacled eyes low over drawing board.
She found herself wondering, as she
had several times before. whether her

6. II. Johnston Of keokuk 10 Enter.
tanning TWO Other Members OF
the Family Here This
Week.
FOUGHT IN CIVIL WAR
They Have Splendid War Records and
are Proud of Their Participation
in StruegIe to Preserve
Union.

S. II. Johnston of this city was
host yesterday to his TWO brothers.
George W., of Newport. Wash. and
! Sylvester OF Canton, Mo. This Tall
was the first time in sixty years that
the three men sad Deen together.
Mr.. S. H. Johnson and his Canton
brother have seen each other often,
and Mr. Sylvester Johnston visited
his brother, George. IN the west a
few years ago, but the three Of them
have not been together until last
month where they have been spend
| ing part of their time in Canton and
part of 1t here. The occasion sixty
years ago which brought the men,
then boys, together was the marriage
of their older sister.
The three brothers are also civil
war veterans so they have more than
family ties to bring them close to
one another. There were six boys
in their family who fought in the
civil war, and these three lived through
Iii. S. H. Johnston enlisted In Hi
lnois near Chicago in the Fffty-eighth
Illinois infantry. His brothers en-
listed in New York state, Sylvester
in Thirty-second New York regiment
and George in the Forty-eighth New
York regiment At no time during
the war were any Of the brothers In
the same engagements. One brother,
William Henry, starved to death in
Ia prison; another one. Enos, died OF
brain fever in regimental hospital
in Tennessee, and Isaac was killed
lin action at Rappahannock Station,
Virginia. S. H. Johnston was also a
prisoner for many months at Shilo
after the Pittsburg-Atlantic siege.
The Johnstons had a brother-in-law
in the civil war, and their great
grandfather, Isaac Thorp. of New
Jersey, fought in the revolutionary
war S. H. Johnston had one grand
son in the great war and Sylvester
lof Canton had two grandsons In this
war.
The three men who were together
yesterday are proud OF their careers
as soldiers and they all three agreed
that if there should be another war.
they would all get into 1t again.
George w. Johnson said he was
sorry that he couldn't participate in
the great war just ended, and he
meant 1t, too.
The Johnston family is an old one
of New York state. S. Fl. Johnston
and his brothers attended the
academy at Ithaca. which was near
their home Mr. Johnston came west
as far as Chicago in 1860 and settled
in Keokuk after the war. His brother
George, lived in this city ten years
after the war, and Sylvester went to
Canton. Both s. H. Johnston and
George married in Keokuk. Georges
wife is still living ana accompanied
her husband on his visit here. She
has two sisters living in Keokuk
They are Mrs. Kate Chandler. 231S
Mckinley avenue, and Mrs. Angelina
c. Niles, 1905 Johnson street Mr.
and Mrs. George Johnston came to
Keokuls last month and Mr.. Johnston
attended the national encampment Of
the G. A. R., this fall at Columbus
They will leave here the last OF the
week for their home IN the west.
This trip to Keokuk is the first time
they have been in these parts for
forty years.
