had just carried away oatmeal dishes and placed before the master of the house the steak and creamed potatoes Leonard Ashley was a tall erect man of Bis dark face and keen black eyes told of deter mination of character yet there air of geniality and kind- linens about him that Inspired confidence Opposite him sal his little browneyed wife while the re maining chair was occupied by little Donald their only child Have you conic to any de cision regarding Thanksgiving Florence Mr Ashley asked No Mrs Ashleys face wore a puzzled look There is really no one wo are under obligation to invite this year Of course wo expected to go to Aunt Kates but Hays having scarlet has spoiled that Its a pity we declined tho Car ters invitation Mr Ashley said However we thought it our duty to accept other It too late to get up a family parLy Is there anyone here it town whom we owe a dinner Theres Ma jor Kent and the Papa Donald laid down his knife and fork to intently regard his father Well my son what is it What is Thanksgiving for It was a simple question but Leonard Ashleys face flushed For he repeated vaguely Why dont you know what it is for I am surprised Donald Florence is it possible thai you and his teachers have neglected to teach him that Oh mamma told me about its being a lime to thank the good Father in heaven for Wis kind ness And Miss Snyder said we must not spend our pennies for candy but save to buy a Thanksgiving dinner for poor children who wouldnt have any I remembered nil that papa but I thought and the child hesi tated Thought what the father asked in a gentler lAic for the ciple by which she claimed to be guided Nay it was the rule by which she tried to color life Was she failing here Bad sho be come so engrossed in social du ties and pleasures that her inno cent child there was wrong And her husbaifu who was not a follower of Christ did ho loo see her error Before she could speak Don alds attention was attracted elsewhere Oh see see I he cried point to the window It snows it snows If it snows a lot you will get me a new sled wont you papa Yes of course Mr Ashley replied absently as he gazed at the liny flakes of snow which the strong October wind wastoss- hither and yon Thanksgiving was not again referred to Breakfast over Mi kissed his wife and son you would share as yotf do my other rosponsibili- tics she said Leon ard a Christian father can do much for a They sat a silence ho rose and still holding her hand stood gazing into the fire Bo patient with wife God- is and boundless love- I will try learn to thank Him in the have taught your son to do The following week was a busy one for Mrs Ashley She was very happy There was a now light in her eyes a sweet new hope in her heart Leonard made few suggestions concerning dinner parly only saying Please arrange it so wo to Florence There can be no belter way of giving Blanks But when the day came he be gan his thanksgiving before the tunc for church When the sun light streamed through the rent clouds and peered into the win- of Leonard Ashleys borne it saw the glad- sight of father mother and child all kneeling in prayer Church oyer they waited home the carriage going for of the guests At the door Leonard halted saying Will you excuse me for a little while My guest if he 1 kit MAIN STREET SOUTH i Owing to we are forced to give up all our stock of and arc selling LADIES AND BOOTS AND SHOES ETC ALSO A SUPPLY OK I ALL MILLINERY AT A SACRIFICE then hurried off lo catch the car During the ride ho discussed the tariff with an old acquaintance It was not until he had reached given his clerk and errand boy directions for the mornings work and settled sclf in the inner room with his mail that he allowed himself to dwell upon Donalds words A time for that sounds like Clarence is surprising how much Donald looks as he used lo Bow fond I was of him I was 10 years old er and always took care of him And now for four years I havent looked into his face But he should have told me what he knew of Bradford I had a thousand- dollar note to pay that I should have known better than to put my name to had Clarence told me of the mans past crookedness He claimed lie thought Bradford had over a new leaf Mr Ashley rose paced across the room What a great day Thanksgiving used to be with us when we were boys I Mother always held it as a re ligious festival and a time of joyous giving not only of thanks lo but of material help to the needy and of loving cheer to all- Dear little mother I When she was dying I promised her I ould always look after Clarence Well I did until he was a man but Be paused Why did these things trouble him Why did heart ache with loneliness when he remembered how far he had wandered from the path trod den by his sainted mother These were hard questions to answer But Leonard Ashley was not one lo shrink from the truth There are some questions that can be answered only lo God questioning look in the blue eyes recalled to his mind a picture of another little lad with just such eyes and closely cropped golden curls as Donalds This lad was now a man although brother and only near kinsman of Leonard Ashley there had been no communication between them since the day years be fore when they had parted in anger Donald was silent for a little after a reassuring look from his mother he said When you was talking bout the you ought lo ask I thought yi didn know bout the way mamma lold me of Thanks giving or else that you know a better way I sposed it was just a time to love folks and do them good It sounded so funny to hear you talk of asking someone to dinner just because you ought lo be polite to them And say mamma What is it my son Mrs Ashley asked soberly Bout dinner Why dont folks ask poor people dont have good times Tho ore rich the way Jesus would like to have do fair face of the mother flushed The way Jesus would like to have us do That was the so we ones own conscience will leave him alone Meauwhilo Florence was also thinking over the mornings talk She decided her course of con duct where had settled many grave matters on her knees When husband and wife were alone in their own room that night Florence reverted to the subject of Thanksgiving Im afraid Javas not planning to spend the day as Jesus would liko lo have us do to use Don alds own words she said in a trembling voice Leonard I would like to give a real Thanks giving dinner give it to the poor and needy He did not speak but bis strong right hand closed gently over hers that played nervously with the of the table cover Some thing in that firm ftressure gave her strength to go on Ido not mean sending them a basket of provisions I mean to invito them hereto our pretty borne with thorn To let them understand that as wo all give thanks to one Father wo are all brothers and sisters and that you does not fail me will arrive- on Ibis train and I must meet him Your guest I she echoed won der in gly Then she remember ed Why Leopard you havent lold me whom you have asked He shook his head gaily Do not ask mo now I may be disap pointed and ho was off down the street There was just time for an in spection of the flowerwreathed diningroom the turkeys brown ing in the oven the golden pump kin pies the moulds of amber jelly and the prettily arranged baskets of fruit Then the bell heralded the first arrival It was a curious company when all had assembled Old Mr and Mrs Evans who had a good din ner but rarely Minnie an illpaid shop girl- and the two little sisters for whom she cared as best she could Mrs Perkins the seamstress- and her invalided sister poor Widow Brown with her two halfgrown sons besides old Mr Frazier and blind Turner Yet so full was Florence Ash leys heart of the true Thanks giving spirit that in a few mo ments all were at ease Donald delighted with the success of plan Bis mother breathed a quick prayer when she noticed the interested look on the face of wild Willie Brown as the child talked lo him of Thanksgiving I must get Leonard lo help thai boy she thought And I am going lo find a better situation for poor Minnie This shall be but the beginning of Thanksgiv ing The hall door opened She hurried forward lo meet her hus band but stopped short at the sight of a tall blonde boarded man in a shaggy overcoat It cant is Clarence I she exclaimed How Why dont understand Clarence Ashley- stooped and gravely kissed her A few words will make it all plain A telegram there was not time for a letler came to me in my rude Califor nia home It assured me that my brother and your husband is the man living Not only did that message call me home for Thanksgiving but Florence it called me home from the bar ren fields of doubt lo my mothers God Florence could riot speak Her husband lifted Donald who had followed his mother to he hall and placing him in Clarences arms said Here is the instigator I of the whole affair Bis interpre tation of Thanksgiving has given me a new
