AN UNEXPECTED
THANKSaiv.NO.
rrj IIE children danced all around the
"Ir room, even Lois, the blonde little
v one.
"We'll hare one Tbanksgiring, any
how." cried Will, the curly haired boy;
and me other boy, whose hair did not
curl, laughed louder than any of them.
"Won't it be fun to have a Thanksgiv
ing?" he asked when he could get his
breath.
Mrs. Darjington folded the letter and
hook her head.
"Don't depend on it. Will," she said.
"It will take money, you know, and how
are we to get it?"
"Oh, I guess the money will turn np
somehow," Will answered as confidently
as though they could pick up money in
the streets If they should happen to want
It.
It was a letter that had created all that
commotion; the most unexpected letter
that ever was, too. It had come from a
farm house, and the writer was an old
farmer, who wrote with the greatest
labor, for he had never gone to school in
his life. His old wife had been sitting
beside him as he wrote, and when be
finished this is what he read to her:
Dear Miss Darlington I bar jus foun out
that you are the gurl my little Minnie uste
to love so when you was at school togather;
an I foun ont wbair you lived. Mother an
me wants you an your family to come out
an upen TbanksKlvIn with us. an as much
longer as yon can. You take the Valley
Raleroad an (it off at Howard, an then you
can come acrost In a waggle. Anybody
knows the road. JOHN FE.NNElt.
A Thanksgiving In the country! No
wonder the ohildren danced and laughed
and shouted. "But it isn't much use
thinking about it," said the mother to
Will that night, after the others bad gone
to bed. "Try to make Frank and Iois
forget It, Will, for there isn't money
enough. We need so many things that
we wouldn't dare spend money on a
pleasure excursion, would we?"
Will was silent, but the tears went up
"PLEASE, SIR, COULD TOU LET ME HAVE
THE MONET YOU OWE MOTHER?"
Into his eyes with a rush. He went to
bed after awhile, when his mother wss
through with her work, and while he lay
awake, thinking over this magnificent op
portunity to have a pleasant Thanksgiv
ing, he suddenly remembered Mr. Mayer, j
Now Will very often thought of Sir.
Mayer. This was the man that had nev
er paid his mother for some work that
she had done for him, months before.
He had found fault with It, and had tried
to put her off with half-price. Will had
a vivid recollection of the many visits he
had made to the store to get the money,
and had hoped that his mother never
would send him again; but as he lay
awake the thought of Mr. Mayer came
up again; and he could not get rid of it.
Next morning Mrs. Darlington was sur
prised to find that Will had an errand,
after breakfast, and that he did not like
to tell what it was.
"Mr. Mayer? He's in his office," said
the clerk to whom Will appealed, and
who went on with his writing, forgetting
-to add that a gentleman was with Mr.
Mayer and he did not wish to be dis
turbed. Will opened the door of the lit
tle office and slipped in; and before Mr.
Mayer had an opportunity to look around
the lad was standing by his side.
"Well,'" said Mr. Mayer Impatiently,
not recognizing the boy; and Will step
ped forward.
"Please, sir," he said. In a tittle gen--tlemanly
way; "could you let me have
the money you owe mother for the sew
ing, if it's convenient? We need It very
mucb." "
The gentleman visitor smiled, and Mr.
Mayer, looking annoyed, opened the door
and called to the cashier:
"Give this boy $ 15 for me, and tske a
receipt."
It was done. The money was button
ed up in Will's jacket, and away he went
homeward, scarcely touching the pave
ment as be ran. But at the head of the
stairs he slackened his pace, and went in
and sat down quietly.
"Mother," he said, "how much would
it take to pay our way there and back?"
"Oh, I don't know," she said sorrow
fully, "a great deal more than we can
' afford. Will. There's the trip on the
train it will take as much as VS. 1 .:i
pose, both ways, though all of you mi;fht
go on half-fare: and then there is the
trip in the wagon afterwards. It's a
great pity to give it up, but I think we'i:
have to."
"Mother," said Will, "suppose you
were to find enough money for the trip:
suppose somebody that you never ex
pected to pay us should pay."
And then in a flash Will had the money
out, and there was another shout, louder
than when the letter came; and what
did Mrs. Darlington do but cry, and then
laugh as merrily as the children did. For
it really did begin to look like Thanksgiv
ing. That night she wrote a letter thanking
Mr. and Mrs. Kenner, saying Jhat tlie.v
would all be there on the morning ol
Thanksgiving day.
The day came at last, and they got off.
but it was raining, and they wondered
why it should rain just as they were go
ing to have Thanksgiving. At Howard
they got out of the cars and Tan into the
station; and then they looked out of the
windows and saw little rivers running
down all the streets of the town.
"I'm afraid it isn't going to clear,"
said Mrs. Darlington to the children.
We'll try to find a covered wagon and
then we can go on, in spite of the rain."
A small boy, who was lounging about
!ie station, was sent in search of a wag-

and they climbed in.
"He ssys we'll be there by half-past

be nuts and raisins and buttermilk."
The wheels went splsshing through
the mud, snd ss they went farther along
k. .a it aMiiwd to Mrs. Darlington
that the difficulties increased. Tners
were more streams ana tney were aeeper
and angrier.
"Gittin" pretty bad, ain't it?" said the

- eKXTLEMAH.
driver with a grin. "But that ain't the
worst of it. It's my opinion we won't git
to old man Fenner's to-day."
Mrs. Darlington's heart grew faint
within her. She had so little money that
she could not afford to spend any of it
for lodging.
The driver was right, for after awhile
they reached a stream that was away out
of its banks, snd that roared and boiled
in the most threatening way. It was use
less to think of going farther.
-Well, which'll you do?" - said the
driver, idly flicking his whip. "Shall I
take ye back to town to stay all night, or
shall I see the old man that owns this
place an' git permission for you to camp
in that cabin there till the creek runs
down?"
No, they would not go back; so the
driver went up to the farm house snd
soon came back with word that thej
were welcome to the use of the cahin.
Five minutes afterward they stood in
the cabin door and watched the wajron
out of sight around the bend; for the
driver had declined to wait. He had
done bis part, he said; it was not his
fault that the streams could not be
forded.
"What shall we do?" exclaimed the
mother, sinking down upon an old bench.
"What an end to all our prospects ot
pleasure! What a Thanksgiving!" And
the children began to cry.
"You just wait till I build a fire." Will
railed out cheerily: and in a little while
be had a roaring fire started in the wide
fireplace. Some dry boards and sticks
of wood that he found under the house
furnished sufficient fuel, and they all
drew near to the pleasant blaze.
Then, while they were busy getting
warm. Will surreptitiously counted the
small store of coins in his pocket; little
aving hoarded through many weeks, and
now brought from home to spend on this
wonderful Thanksgiving.
"Mother," he said suddenly, "will you
lend me your umbrella a little while.
Tta not going far." The mother asked
no questions.
The gruff old farmer was sitting be
side his own fire, when there came a
gentle knock at the door; and in response
to his surly "Come in." the door opened.
A curly haired lad was there, lowering
a dripping umbrella, which be was care
ful to leave outside.
"If you please, sir," he said. "I belong
OS THE WAT TO MR. FENNEB'S.
to the family that you loaned the house
to, down by the road; and we're very
much obliged to you."
"Humph!" ejaculated the old man.
"First one that ever thought to say so,
and I've loaned the house a good many
times."
"And if you please, sir," went on the
little msn in the door, "I came to see if
you could sell me a turkey for Thanks
giving." "My gracious!" exclaimed the old man
with his eyes wide open.
"Yes. sir. You see, we were going to
Mr. Fenner's to spend Thanksgiving, and
it would have been the first Thanksgiv
ing we've ever bad; and it rained so thst
we couldn't get there. So I thought we'd
just buy a turkey, and have Thanksgiv
ing right there in that bouse. Will you
please sell a 29-cent turkey?" And he
held out his hand with 29 copper cents
n it.
How that old man looked at the boy
and pulled out a redbandana handker
chief and rubbed his nose with it until it
was crimson.
"Whose money is that?" he asked, ao
suddenly that he almost made Will
jump.
"It's all mine, sir. I've been saving
it for a long time, but I thought I'd buy
a turkey with it now, and surprise moth
er with it. and the children."
"The children! He talks about the
children!" murmured the old man to him
self. "Bless us and save us!"
And then all at once he said:
"You go along back down to the house,
and don't you breathe a word about the
turkey. Ill send it down, after awhile
a 29-cent turkey. No, you needn't pay
me till you get the turkey. Go on
they're hard to catch, you know, but I'll
see that we catch one. Hurry, now, or
you'll get wet. And you want it for
the children, eh? bless my life!"
Will hurried back, wondering what the
old man meant by all that, and half in
clined to believe that be would never
hear about the turkey again. However,
he was a hopeful little fellow, and he ran
into the house, built up the fire again and
set the children to playing, so that they
were id great glee in no time. As for
the mother, she was becoming reconciled
to the condition of things, too, even
though they were bedless, dinnerless and
a long way from home; and that on
Thanksgiving.
After awhile, in the very midst of the
play, the door was pushed open, and
there stood the old gentleman with a
huge basket, and behind him was his ser
vant with another huge basket, and be
hind them was a wagon, with a table
and some chairs and more baskets in it.
"I'm a lonely old man," said the old
gtntleman, with his bat in his hand;
"and I wss about to eat my Thankwgtv
ing dinner by myself. But I thought bet
ter of it; I thought that perhaps you
would allow me to bring it down here
and eat It with you."
Then Mrs. Darlington broke down and
could not say a word; and the servant
went to work snd made a very presents
bVe dining room of the old csbin. Such
things as were put on that table! The
turkey itself was a marvel. And there
were fruits and home-made bread, and
golden butter and milk and cake the
like of it had never been seen anywhere.
Then they sat down and ate, and it was
perfectly marvelous what an appetite
those children had. As for the old man,
there never was suoh a jolly old man
suae the world began
And after the dlnse Was over and
while they were right In the midst of la
Same of blind man's buff, the heard a
shout, and when they looked oat tbey
saw that the stream had ran down, and
that Mr. Fenner's wagon waa just ford
ing it; and be waa oaBing to the servant
to know whether he had seen anything of
a lady and a crowd of children and Just
hen be saw them.
Well, but there waa rejoicing then;
and Mr. Fenner could hardly shake
hands with them for staring at his gruff-snd-grim
old neighbor wearing a blind
fold and playing with the children. .
"I don't often come out of my hell,'
said the old gentleman; "but I've come
out to-day. and it's done me good."
"Stay ont, now that you've come out,"
ssid Mr. Fenner. "There's a fine Thanks
giving hasn't been touched yet, at my
house. Get in the wagon with the rest
of us, and let's go home and see aftet
it."
And, would you believe It, the old gen
tleman actually climbed into the wagon
snd they went over to Mr. Fenner's, and
had another Thanksgiving that very
evening; with such good things on the
table as you never dreamed of unless you
hsve lived in the country, and the
Thanksgiving lasted over the next morn
ng. and perhaps for a day or two longer.
And the best of it was that it stayed;
for Mr. and Mrs. Fenner could not beat
to give Mrs. Darlington up. and they
fell in love with the children; and the re
sult of it was that the Darllngtons were
established in a little cottage, close at
hand, and that Mrs. Darlington was giv
en charge of the dairy and other things.
They are now the happiest people to be
found anywhere, with the old gentlemsi
coming over every few days to play with
the children, and with the hard times all

some brilliant member of the company
will ask, "Doctor, Is there much sick
ness In the city?" as If the poor physi
cian was a collector of statistics ot
knew just what the condition of the
city was. Another person will call
across the table or room, "Doctor, do
you think I ought to be vaccinated?"
and probably some especially scintilla
ting member will say that she does not
believe In vaccination, which, of course,
settles matters at once.
The wise physician will keep quiet al
such times and not let himself Into a
wild discussion which can lead to noth
ing between persons of unequal mental
attainments. There is a temptation al
ways to talk "shop," especially by those
not In the "shop." The lawyer Is asked
his opinion in the parlor; the physician
Is consulted on the street corner. Such

Souvenirs of Dewey are to be had on

at lesst for the paying. But they arc
cold-hearted souvenirs that hsve no In

own, that would be a different matter.
A certain small boy has a keen appre

has been more highly favored than the
average mortal, for has he not even

In "Passages from the Diaries of
Mrs. Philip Lybbe Porrys" there are
some amusing chronicles of eighteenth
century small beer. For example: -
Princess Amelia asked a remarkably
tall young man what he was Intended
for.
"The church," said he.
"Oh, sir, you must mistake." said the
Princess. "It was certainly for the
steeple."
Hitherto this retort has been sttrit
uted to Curraa; but Mrs. Porrys war
smiled upon by many of the great ones
of the earth, and was therefore In a po
sition to credit it to the right person.
At all events, Curran baa had tbe hon
or quite long enough. -
Mrs. Porrys also notes a new Pope
pun. One day Sir Walter Blunfs father
was In Pope's company, and talking of
punning. Pope said that was a species
of wit so trlfllngly easy that be would
answer to make one on any proposed
subject . offhand, when a lady in the
company asao, "WelL Mr. Pope, make
one on keelhauling."
He Instantly replied, "That, madam,
is tndaad putting a maa ander a hard
ship" (hard ship).

One of the trials of those interested in the culture of
flowers is the presence of destructive insects. Persons
who have been discouraged by the trouble and often
lack of success attending the use of insecticides w'.H find
the following simple and easily prepared wash entirely
effective. It is the recipe of Mr. Eben E. Rexford, an
authority of national reputation.
Shave a quarter of a pound of Ivory Soap in water sufficient to cover it
and dissolve upon the stove, then add five gallons of warm water. Sprav this
solution upon the plants with a florist's syringe, or if they are small dip them
bodily intoit In either case, be sure to reach every part. Let them stand half
an hour and then rinse with clear water.

ROMANCE
Concealed in a Bins Bought In an Old
Curiosity Bnop.
i nicked no this ring in a Royal
street curio shop," said a visitor from
New Tork to some friends last even-s,vtnllna-
his foreflnger as be
spoke and exhibiting an antique gold
hoop, set with a veinea rea eione, uoi
over half an Inch across. "You think
It is rather ugly, I suppose," he contin
ued, "and so do I. but while examining
It at the shop I happened to notice that
the setting was Inordinately thick, and
I bought the thing 'on suspicion,' as
the saying goes. When 1 got outside l
nnt mv knife blade to tbe edge of tbe
little band around tbe stone and this is
what happened see."' The dull red
sattinr nnened like a ltd. disclosing a
tiny portrait of a woman, the smallest
and most perfect miniature any or me
admiring gronp had ever seen. The
face was strangely sweet and pensive;
It was that of a woman apparently
about 25 years old, and tbe arrange
ment ofthe hair, as well ss what coma
aeen of the dress. Indicated a period
somewhere in tbe forties. On tbe edge
of the setting were some curious angu
lar marks, but whether they were in
tended for a name or a date nobody
mnlil determine. "I first thought the
picture was a daguerreotype," said the
owner of the ring, "Out closer inspec
tion ahnwed that it was Dalnted. either
on enamel or ivory. You will notice
that the cheeks are tinted, arter the oia
style, while the rest Is in black and
white. It Is certainly a wonderfully
fine piece of work, and that mere is a
mmance connected with It goes with
out saying. Look at the hoop how it
Is worn?- Tbe minature must nave
been painted more than half a century
ago.-and I dare say this woman is
aleeping now in one of "the old ceme
