nayweod'a Thanksgiving:.
Maywood did not feel especially
thankful. Quite the contrary, for
Maywood felt himself especially- un
fortunate. Ho had a good situation,
but he was weighted down with the
idea that he did not receive a salary
commensurate with his services. He
saw other men who worked less than
ho, but who rr'le in carriages while
he walked or took the trolley cars.
He saw men who never worked, but
who wore tailor-made clothes while
he was forced to bo content with
ready-made clothes bought at bargain
sales.
As a matter of fact, Maywood had
brooded over these things until ho
,waa in grave danger of becoming a
misanthrope. Jiftf was beginning to
lose its charm, notwithstanding that
Maywood had, in reality, many bless
ings. Because of this biased view of his
condition Maywood arose in a cyni
cal mood on Thanksgiving morning.
He ate breakfast in moody silence and
spoke roughly to the baby because she
accidentally overturned her little
bowl of cereal. t
"Our Thanksgiving dinner will bo
ready about 2:30, deay," said Mrs.
Maywood as Maywood donned his
overcoat.
"What have we to be thailkful for?"
growled Maywood.
"A great many tnings, dear," said
Mrs. Maywood" with a smile.
"I can't see it' growled her hus
band. So Maywood hastily kissed his wife
and children good-bye andstarted for
the offlco, where he had some work
that demanded Ltten:ion, even though
it wore a holiday. At the office he
went at hig work without ambition.
He felt he wasa slave Ho paused
now and then to .think dismal
thoughts? and to envy tho whom he
deemed more fortunate ttian himself.
Ho allowed his mind to dwell on
gloomy things until ho actually be
lieved he was the most unfortunate
of men.
, But finally his work was dono and
he closed his desk preparatory to go
ing home. From the jofiice he went
further down town to purchase a few
little articles his wife needed to make
the Thanksgiving dinner more com
plete, although ho could .see no good,
reason for making ah especial spread
on Thanksgiving day.
At the corner ne met a poor cripple
who was turning a wheezy hana-or-g&n,
and the sight made him pause for
a moment.
"Poor fellow," mused Maywood. "It
must be hard to be in that condition."
And instinctively MaywoodTsquared
his broad shoulders and rejoiced for
a moment in his own health and.
strength.
The streets were thronged with hap
py people, but Maywood was not hap
py. As he strode alopg wrapped in
his gloomy thoughts he saw a carriage
turn a corner further down the street,
and close behind it came a hearse
with nodding plumes. As the hearse
passed Maywood glanced at it and in
stinctively paused. Through the pol
ished glass panels he saw a tin: white
coffin, upon which lay a few delicate
flowers. Behind the hearse was a
carriage, and seated therein was a
woman with white, drawn face, her
nead resting upon the shoulders of a
man who bore many evidences of a
sorrow that wrenched his strong
frame. ,
Maywood's thoughts flew toward the
cozy suburban cottage where his own
little ones were playing, full of
health and happiness'; and while his
heart went out to the stricken parents
in the carriage, he felt a feeling of
joy surge over him, for thus far the
angel of Death had passed his house
hold by,
While Maywood was waiting for the
clerk to tie up his purchases he looked
towards the desk and saw the pinched
features and heard the hacking cough
of the bookkeeper.-
"Consumption," whispered May
wood to himself as he let his eyes
rest upon the bent form that pored
over the ledger. And then Maywood
drew a long breath and felt the warm
tide of health sweep through his
veins.
Maywood would not acknowledge it,
but he began thinking along new lines.
He recalled the poor cripple on the
corner and contrasted that broken
form with his own six feet of physical
manhood. He looked back a the
frail bookkeeper before Jie left the
store, and his own chest expanded
and his muscles swelled. He recalled
the little coffin and the tear-stained
face of the stricken mother, and his
heart boundod with joy when he
thought of his own hearty little ones
waiting his home-coming.
Maywood actually smiled before he
had walked a block. When he reached
the corner where he usually took the
car he stopped to wait, and as the
throngs, trooped by Maywood puck
ered his lips and actually whistled a
rollicking march.
"Feeling good, old man," exclaimed
a friend.
"First rate," replied Maywood.
And when Maywood jumped from
his car and rushed into his little cot
tage, he flung his packages upon the
table, threw his arms around his wife
Jand whirled her around the room,
then tossed the babies high into the
air.
"What on earth is the matter
dear?" said the astonished Mrs. May
wood. "Thanksgiving, of course!" shouted
Maywood. "Haven't we enough to be
thankful for?"
And while Mrs. Maywood was won
dering, Maywood kissed her again,
and began rolling over the floor with
the little ones,
Drain Leak.
Some people come with thanksgiv
ing, and others come; -with thanks,
giving. - .
The truest" thanksgiving" results in
giving others good reason for being
thankful.
-Stuffing one's self like a turkey is
not the best way to observe Thanks
giving day.
If you are thankful for all your
blessings you will have no time to
grieve over yourmisfortunes.
The joy of giving thanks for what
wo teceiv is small compared with the
joy of-beig thankful for an oppor
tunity to -give.
We are prone to complain so much
and so long about some really trivial
sorrow that we have no time to give
thanks for the countless blessing that
are ours.
