and clasping her hands in front of her

"viThankfgiviD' day a matter of cookiu'
and eatin' is the most toolkit of all our
New England notions.; , Every year
since I can remember the programme
has been the same. The whole month
of November tpent in prepann' for this
'graud gastronomical exhibition, as
Parson I'end'lton nsedlto eall it.
have never in my been away from
this hoase on a Tlianlsgtvin' day ; and
ey'ry year we've been ovcrrna with
comp'ny. Father wouldn't think 'twas
Thaukpgiviii',- I s'pow?, it the house
wasn't full. For my part, I should like
a change ; either to go sora'ers Thanks
giviii' day, and be waited on, or stay
at home by myself."
"Ob, Ilarr'et, I wouldn't talk so,'
remonstrated grandmother, who was
taking off her falce front and putting on
her white muslin nightcap. " You
know the work of preparin' for dear
ones is pleaantNork. Our social fam
ily gathenn's make U6 ail better aud
happier. Vonr father would feel dread
fully cut up to hear you run on in this
coruplainiu' way about makiu' Thanks
givin. Of course you are tired to
night,but don't think about that ; count
oyer jour marcies, aod think how much
you have to be thankful for."
"Hum," went on the wearied spinster
in her peculiar nasal tone, "I could make
thauksgivin' in my heart so that it
would sing tor joy without niakiu' such
an ado about my stomach."
Reaching down and opening the oven
door, a suggestive and delicious odor,
as of baking fowls and browning pastry,
burst, forth, tilling the roomy kitchen
She . peeped inside the oven for a nio-
memeut, turned around one of the pans,
using a corner of her long, straight,
blue print apron for a holder, and then,
flinttiug in the culinary wonders which
were to grace to morrow's dinner she
continued : i
"I have spent three weeks in house
cleaning, only to get everything in
apple pie order just in time to be turned
tojit-y turvy. Every room is full to
night, and I- muht stretch my tired
frame on a lounge. It jiever makes
any diffeience where Harriet sleeps;
she can be tucked anywhere. Last
iiight I was up till 11 o'clock to get
the pound cake baked. Night before
last it was the miucc and pumpkin pjes.
To-night it will be 11 before these
chicken pie are browned fit to be seen,
and flat midnight before I can get to
bed. I am- tired and sick of the great
national stuffing day, aud tor my own
part shan't want a mouthful o? the nice
food that the pantry shelves are groan
ing under. I would far rather have
a bowl ot samp and nulk, aud a day of
leisure along with it."
jThe bedroom door just behind the
sneaker was unlatched, and John and
his wife, who had late in the evening
driven in from the west part ot the
town, so as to be at home to breakfast
Thanksgiving morning, and who had
been put into Harriet's room, heard
every word of this tirade.
"We'll have them all next year if we
get the house fixed over," whispered
Jane under the blue and white cover,
lid and John nodded assent, whisper
ing in his turn :
"It's hard on Harriet, to be snre."
The project was broached next day,
was agreed toby all handsiiid through
out the year it was talked of as a settled
thing that their next Thanksgiving
reunion should be held at John's.
" Father and mother are to come
over on Monday," said John's wife, as
the festival season drew near, "and on
Wednesday, when the preparations are
nearly or quite complete, we will send
the team for Harriet."
"I'll not make that amount ot trou
ble for anybody," replied tie maiden
sister, who was, in fact, the mainstay at
the homestead. "If I conclude to join
in your dinner, I will, on Thursday
mornin' walk over through the woods
in time to gc to meetin with you."
" Grandpa Buxton's farm consisted of
a long strip lying between two rivers,
with a wooded hill about midway ot
its length. Grandpa lived in an old
farm house in the eastern meadow, and
John had fitted up an elegant new resi.
dence on the bank ot the west river.
So the old couple were not to leave the
ancestral acres, although it was tour
rcilca' fxoaa ens hame to U. oiler,.
19, 1879.
around the point ot the hill, and two
mi lei by the foot and bridle path across
the woods.
On the sunny, smoky Monday morn
ing preceding Thauksgiving, grandpa
and grandma started with old Dobbin
and the chaise to jog around the moun
tain road to John's. And on that
same . Monday morning in the far west
a pretty, plump little woman, with
her husband and five children started
in an ox-cart to go the fifteen or twenty
miles to the nearest railway station
where six ot them were to take the cars
for the east tb spend Thanksgiving,
while the father retraced his wearisome
way to tho lonely logf p&buvbn the
forest prairie.
' It was a rather dowdy and an old-
fashioned company, as might have been
expected, so far as clothes were concern
ed, but attractive in their rosy, healthy,
buoyant good nature. They were all
as happy as happy could bo from 12
year old Johnny to baby Hat for
were they not journeying to the wonder
ful homestead where mamma liyed when
she was a little girl ? and where the
scenes of all mama's stories, which
were better than any fairy stories, or
any stories printed in books or papers.'
On, on they whirled, and it was
Wednesday afternoon ; yet these child
ren, who had never in their lives been
five miles from their own clearing, were
not cross, or sour, or out of patience,
although they were dreadfully tirod,
and oh, 60 hungry 1 for the sizable luncl
basket, well filled when they started
from home, had quite given out, and the
reinforcements bought in haste at way
side restaurants not very filling.
'Only fifty mile from grandpa's
now," and the plump little woman
marshaled her brood about her as they
maJe the last change ot cars. "Only
two hours of precious time." But alan
for . human calculations, there was
connection to be made at an out-of-the
way junction on the line. The eastern
train was late. Trains are always late
tho night before Thanksgiving, there
are so many happy souls going home.
"These trains are mail trains, they must
meet aud our train must wait."
" 'Twill make a pretty late supper
time,'' raid Charlie.
"I. 'should think it was supper time
now," cr'ed Mary, poking around iu the
bottom ot the empty hamper.
"I suppose there is some place near by
where I can get a lunch for the children,"
said the pleasant mamma to affable Con
ductor Carroll, who came through the
car just tlien. ,
"I'm sorry to tell you, madam, that
the restaurant has been discontinued,
and the hotel burned down a week ago
or so. You can see the ruins just over
the brook there."
A glance at the ashes and embers ot
what was once a hotel was not very
ratifying to five hungry juvenile, and
mamma, tor the first time since she
bade her husband good by, without a
cloud on her brow said :
"We will play we have got to grand
pa's and see how nearly our real getting
there will be like our play. I will begin
now, 'What would I like for supper,
Sister Harriet? Oh, a cup of tea for
me, and plenty of milk aud bread for
the children.' 'Wall, I declare fdr't
Sister SuFan.T guess these children won't
eat bread and milk at grand pa's Thanks
giviu', after traveliu' three mortal days
and nights."
And the plump little mamma changed
her voice in the last clause in a droll,
natal imitation of her sister, which made
the children laugh. ; 1
"What would you like, ray dears?"
"I can smell all sorts ot goodies,"
said Mary, sniffing until her little pert
nose grew red, "and I should : like
pumpkin pie, if it's agreeable." -
"Chicken for me," put in Johnny,
prompt ly.
"Mince pie," said quiet Jane
"Pudding, cake, cookies, apples, nuts,
pop-corn-balls, roast beet, roast JJpork,
spare ribs, quail, ham, ducks; most
anything you have in. the houjse," cried
Charlie, uproariously, while they all
laughed, and little Hat shouted "Goo,
goo," and made her little fat hands fly
in a patty cake, baker's-manX
The three or four patsensers in the
far end of the car looked up from theit
books aud papers and smiled at the
meiry little group.
Meanwhile Aunt Harriet, in the great
old ark of a farm-house by herself,talked
to the dog and est. She had loaded
the hired mati o2' home to: hi father's
with a bihiet r acked full of Thasks
gjviu' fixing, "I'll tee,! she said aa
she put in the last mince pie and loaf
of cake, "if I can't have just as thank,
ful a heart as if the house was full of
goodies. I mean to try it for once, and
eat puddin' and milk, aa I have often
wished I could, aud see it I don't enjoy
tt just as well."
So she sifted a groat quantity of corn
meal of the kind that southern people
call hominy and New England folks
call samp, and putting on the big din
ner pot, proceeded to make a pudding,
It required a good deal of stirring and
skimming and kept her pretty busy tor
two or" three hours. The meal swelled
and swelled until the kettle was nearly
full.- - "
"I declar for't," said she to the cat.
" I don't know ; what possessed roe to
make such a lot of puddin'. But if
dou't want it all myself, the liogs will
'twon't be wasted" and, fetching a
bowl of milk from the panty she sat
down in the split-bottom rocking chair,
set her felt slippered feet on the fore
piece of the stove and proceeded to eat
her supper.
" I declar for't," said she to tho dog
who lay on the rug at her feet, " I fee'
exactly as if surabudy was dead, or as
it everybudy was dead, and I was left
on airth alone to keep tavern.
should like a little bite of sunthin' to
top off with, but I wouldn't own it to
anybudy that could talk ; hut yon
won't tell no tales. I'm as ashamed as
a whipped dog, and feel as cheap as
dirt every time I think what day it is,
and how we've been prospered in every
way through the year, aud yet here I
le, no comp'ny in the house and none
likely to come, and nothiu' cooked np,
and no Thanksgivin' smell about the
house, and, worst ot all, father'n mother
sent off out from under their own off.
Harr'et, your're a sour selfish old maid
'nd I'm ashamed on ye. Take the
Bible and 6oe if you can't find sunthin1
to get yer into a better state o' mind."
So she strode into her " mother's
room" after the family Bible, and be
hold 1 it was gone. " They've taken it
with 'em to John's and, all the Thanks
givin along with it." Sh took a look
at the made up bed, with its pieced-np
quilt, aud said again, " It seems aa If
everybudy was dead," and went out
and shut the door behind her.
What if somebudy should come f
she soliloquized rext, taking np the cat,
" but there won't. There ain't nobody
to come, only what's invited to John's,
excepting Sister Susan, poor, dear, prec
ious child, away off there in the wilds ;
she'll never come home again, I pre
sume ;" and Harr'et laid her hands on
her knees and thought of the day Susan
was born, and of the day she was mar
ried, and cried a little, and theu drop
ped off into a nap, from which she was
aroused by a' subdued bustle near the
back door.
Getting up aud lifting a corner ot the
curtain she peeped out, and saw, by the
light of the full moon, a wagon driving
out of the yard, a trunk or basket a
tallitih boy, a shortish girl, two more
children coming up the walk, and a
plump, shortish little woman, with a
baby iu her arms, jnst stepping upon
the doorstone.
" Susan," gasped Harnet, quickly
unbuttoning and opening the door, and
catching the surprised, rosy little: wom
an in her arras. They both cried a
little, but Harriet meanwhile pot Susan
into the splint-bottomed chair, took off
her bonnet, aud smoothed her ' hair.
Then she wiped her eyes, asked after
the absent husband, kissed the child
ren, took off their things, making a
menial calculation of how she should
get them all dressed before Sunday.
" I knew I should find you up," said
Susan, looking around the familiar
kitchen. ' I remember how the bak
ing used to drag the night before," and
she gave a little sniff. Smelling noth
ing suggestive ot fancy cookery, the
said she believed she had managed to
take a cold in some way. At this the
children, each in turn, sniffed and look
ed curiously at each other.
" We won, let anyone know that
you have come until morning, said
Harriet, iu her decided way, " and
then we will have a general surprise at
breakfast." ;
They are all , -well lather and
mother? asked Susan, anxiously. v
" Never better I Now, what will
you have for supper V That was just
what had been said in their play, in the
car, and the children - pricked rp
their ears . '

stead ot asking them what titey would
like, seized upon the idea of riiilk, fend
exclaimed: '
Yes, yes, milk for the children (o
be sure ; of course it. will be the Tory
best thing for tliem after' the journey.
Yon used to be fond of sampi Susan.
" I should think so, and I hav ,
never seen any since I went away.
The children looked disappolrlt'ffldV .
but they enjoyed their . supper, and -
thought and said they had nwver tasted
anything co delicious aa the first local'

" Yonsee sd .ApnC Harriet,"

" Beginning with stewed chicken'
and pumpkin pie for breakfast,"
said Mary.
" You see I have told them all about .
it, said Susan apologetically, aa she ,
carried the baby up the stairs she had )
last come dowu as a bride. " If you're "s
crowded, Harriet, you can make np '

M There are two beds in thin room ;; .
can you manage here ? replied Harriet,:- -

" Oh , certainly.' - V "
" Then go to bed and go to sleep,

ing shoes, shawl and hood, slipped oat
the back door, locked it securely after
her, put the key under the door sill,'
and started across lots for John's-
" It's lucky I haven't been baking i
for a fortnight," the said, and then abef
continued, " it I had, the folks would'
all be at home, where they'd orter be,
and I shouldn't' have ter go prowlinjf ''
off after 'em. I don't sees Pve madf ',

Jane was taking her last chicken pia
out of the oven, and the clock was
striking 12 as Harriet stalked into tho"
kitchen.. ,
John heard her voice and got out tf
bed and came out in his night-go W to"
hear the good news, for Susan was tliSf
youngest 6ister and th pet.'
" I'll go over and' bring" them' all
over here to breakfast," said Jonn,'"
eagerly. u It dou't seem as it I could' ,
wait until morning.
"I will tell yon what shall be done,? v
said John's wife. ; " We : w6nt say ' -
word about it,but w ilf carry our fixings "
all over home. I Do yoti" suppose I'm'
going to have that dear child and
come halt across - the continent to? ?
Thanksgiving at Grandpa'Sj'only ia fd"v
sent away from the old' homestead to A
one of the neighbors t By rib means.
Then, indeed, Harriet' broke down and r)
cried in good earnest. And, what was a
wonderful thing for ber to do, she put bar
arms around her sister-in-law's neck k$.'
kissed her heartily. '"-' ' " t
Thanksgiving rooming pendiX bright? '
and fair. When Annt Harriet in a pretty - -flowered

fust as it Was set down in the play." ' , , 'i
"There are Tnariksgjvhw smelIsenou&i

But all kept t'teir own counsel, and tho
