poor and together they had wasted her strength and substance She had always been looked up to by the neighbors as be ing independent but now she was left lamefooted and lamehanded With a to carry and her bare land and the house illprovisioned stand of time For a while she managed to get o but at it began to he whispered about it was no use so proud it easier for the whole town to care for her than or a lew neighbors and she had better go the before winter and ic done with it At this terrible sug gestion her brave lwart itemed to Stand Still Hie People whom the eared most for happened to be poor and he could no longer go into thir households to make of use The very elms overhead seemed to ay No as Ihey groaned in the late winds and there was something appealing even to strange In the look of the little grey houne with Mrs worried face at window Some one la s that anniver saries are days to make other peo ple happy In but sometimes when they teem to be full of shadows but power of giving joy to others that inalienable right which ought to lighten the saddest heart the most Indifferent sympathy sometimes even this seems to be withdrawn So poor old Mary Ann sat at her window on the afternoon before Thanksgiving and felt herself to be poor and sorrowful Indeed Across the froen road she looked eastward over a great stretch of cold meadow- land brown and windswept end cross ed by ley ditches It seemed to her as If all the troubles she had known and carried before this there always been to I old if she had never looked poverty lull In the seen Its cold and look before looked anxious ly down the road vith a terrible shrinking and dread at the thought of being out of pity to Join In some Thanksgiving feast but coming With gifts In hand Once she had been full for such days whether at or abroad but had chilled her very heart now poor old woman Her nearest neighbor had been fore most of those who wished her to go the townfarm and he bad more than once that it was the only sensible tbiiig But John Mander wan patiently ftot her little farm Into own hands be bad advanced some money upon It In extremity and pretended that there a debt alter he had cleared her wood lot to pay himself beak He would plow over the graves In the fieldcorner and fell the great elm- and wajtl or his poor prey like a spider He had re proached her for being to worthless people tbe her heart
