This Is One of the Last Paintings That
Came Frem Pairis, Fjrem the Last Salen
It represents, an evening with the old father and mother,
and well serves in suggestiven ess that the old people still need
te see us, that they may read th e letters of the absent and cheer
them in their loneliness with their few surroundings. They
have se little without a visit new and then te give tone te their
Thanksgiving week. ;
It is plain te see that their j old eyes cannot read the
message or the letter that has c eme from the war hospital cl6se
by the battlefield, but the young daughter reads it aloud te
them' that their soldier here is net dead, but lives.
This Thanksgiving Day that has come te us finds euf nation
in the midst of its slew convalescence from its fever of war and
turmoil.
But it lives!
Our benefits and mercies are unbounded.
The temporary disarrangement in commercial activities, at
tendant upon the unavoidable reaction from high war prices, is in
course of settlement utf en a sound basis, and we shall all go ahead
te better times.
