Charlie looked at him, and then at
the half-dozen disreputable men who
were smoking in front of a billiard
room opposite, and the two or three
women sorting over an ash-barrel, and
the squalid, dirty-faced children play
ing and fighting along the gutter, and
answered with an expression of dis
gust:

Thought so. Then the country's

at Charlie little enviously.
"Say, you got horses an cows an

A few yards away, a street boy was

his bare feet rhythmically to the tune
he was whistling. But his eyes were
fixed on the listless figure of his
neighbor.

an undercurrent Of seriousness which
appealed directly to his discourage

go home.
AS the street boy rose and wiped
the mud from his face, Charlie stepped
up to him!

said. I'm going to take it,

TABLE LINEN IMPORTANT

THE real, original and genu-
- inc Thanksgiving dinner
must boast turkey and cram
berry sauce if it is to be strict
ly orthodox in regard to the
menu. Tradition demands this.
Good linen plays a very impor-
tant part in the way the table
will look when set. 1t rs al
ways advisable to buy as good
linen as you can possibly afford,
for it proves a wise investment
in the long run.
An embroidered monogram is
a handsome finish to a good
cloth, but it is less noticeable
there than on the napkins which
for dinner should be large and
square. For embroidery the long
slender letters are preferred. 1t
is pretty sentiment at a
Thanksgiving dinner to use
dishes which are heirlooms for
one course.

A PRAYER

We thank Thee, Father, for the care
That did not come to try us,
The burden that we did not bear,
The trouble that passed by us,
The task we did not fail to do,
The hurt we did not cherish,
The friend who did not prove untrue
The joy that did not perish.
We thank Thee for the binding storm
That did not loose it's swelling,
And for the sudden blight of harm
That came not nigh our dwelling.
We thank Thee for the dart unsped,
The bitter word unspoken,
The grave unmade the tear unshed,
The hearr-tie still unbroken.
Clarence E. Flynn.

~ NE year ago Charlie had
come to the city to make
his fortune. He was
M1 fond of farming and
farm stock; but they
were a slow means to
wealth. He would go to
the city for the fortune,
- and then would come
back and purchase the best farm in
the vicinity and have fine horses and
big meadows and-envious neighbors.
Now he was standing on a street
corner, with hands thrust deep down
into his pockets and wearing the
same clothes he had brought from
home. But the clothes were soiled
and worn threadbare and shiny, and
the shoes were unblacked, and the hat
lacking part of its brim; and long ago
he had discarded such extras as col
lars and cuffs. The fingers Of one
hand played idly with his last two half
dollars, both of which were owed for
the poor little room he rented on one
Of the back streets; and the other fin
gers touched several pawn tickets,
which he had no expectation of re-
deeming. Indeed, he was wondering
duly If there were anything else in
his trunk that could be pawned. He
