Novel Thanksgiving
Country parties over Thanksgiving- may
solve the problem of how to celebrate the
day with the proper old-time spirit and at
the same time relieve some one member of
the family upon whom the duties of hostess
would devolve.
As arranged by one large family last
Thankeslvlng. the party was Inexpensive
and meet successful. It was engineered by
one of the younger members, who was
worn out, ghe said, with former attempts
to have a rood time when three genera
tions were together at on time..
This particular young; woman wrote to
the aunts, uncles and cousins to ask thum
If they would like to go to the country the
day before Thanksgiving, to stay until the

certain specified amount In this instance

dinner.
The place she suggested for 'the house
party was a small inn about two mile
from a railway station, which was thirty
miles from a town. That they would be
warmly and comfortably housed and weukl
have good food She was sure before she
chose the hostelry. ,
Response to feer invitation came in with
alacrity and thirty-five were received.
This filled the inn. So that' they weie sure

Without Work for a Hostess
and there was room enough for their sport.
As each wa paying- bis and her own ex
penses there was a delightful feeling of
indxpendence. "
Each person retired when he or she
chose and arose as each wished. There
were ho outsiders to bother and there were
quiot and confidential chat in the firelight
of the old hall.
At the Thanksgiving- dinner the oldest
woman relative sat at one end ot the long
table and the oldest man relative at the
other eud. The newest bride of the family
sat on his rlttht, while her husband was
on the rUht at the other end.
They had turkey and cider, pumpkin pies
and nuts, and after dinner the whole
thirty-five, including the aunt, who is 74
and as light on her feet a any ot the
others, danced a Virginia reel.
They are going; to repeat the party this
year, because no one was worn out enter

Monday Everybody Is all settled now at
our house, and Amy and Aunt Oeorgette
and Uncle Peter will be with u for a few
week until their house is finished. Amy
confided In ma that she was very glad to
get Aunt Georgette away from our house
in the country, as relation between ber
and the grardner were so strained it made
her nervous.
If aunt had lost anything- she always
say it has been stolen.
She can get fearfully wrought up over
the loss of a black headed pin, and say
that she dislike having- to associate with
thieves. She say It In a very ladylike
way, and you wonder it you can get any
one to go bail for you. A lac petticoat
of Amy' mysteriously disappeared Just
before sh came to town, and couldn't be
found or traced anywhere. Aunt finally
decided that the gardener had stolen it.
For a whole week she was certain of it.
and mentioned "thieves" loudly whenever
h thought he wa within hearing-. He

imagine bun wanting a lace petticoat.
Amy said it wa a great relief to every
one when it wa found In aunt' bottom
drawer. Amy waa full ot practical idea
i soon a she got here, and said she
thought the spare room wa a tight. She
said you couldn't rely on servant any
way, and that a soon a she came back
from the hairdressers, where she waa
going to have her hair washed, she would
get to work and sweep the room thor

too, and w swept under th dressing table
even. Bhe put on an awful old pink wrap

which ail good professional sweeper do,
and put a heavy chiffon veil over my face.
I couldn't see what I was doing very well,
but It waa a splendid protection against
the dust, I must' tell our chambermaid
about it, a she has such a good com
plexion. Amy worked like a horse. After
we had finished and I took the veil off
and could see her clearly, she did look
funny, as a great deal of dust had settled
on her face and had stuck to th cold
cream. Her hair looked positively gray.
She had refused to tie anything over her
head, a she said when ahe swept sh
didn't raise the dirt. It seemed to me
there wa a great deal of tt In th air, but
there seemed to be very little to put in
the dustpan, though we both swept hard
toward one corner, where we were going
to tak it up. Most ot it settled on my
hat that I discovered I had left on th
bed.
However, a I had put heavy dogskin

looked perfectly clean. Amy said she
would have to go back to th hairdresser's

"Eats!" exclsimed the Boes ot the
Establishment as he crossed the threshold
of his suburban home.
Incidentally, he embraied his wife to
incidentally, she thought. Having; Jut re
turned from an afternoon ti-a, she wa
not hungry herself and his fervent Invoca
tion to food did not rouse an answerinx
sentiment In her breast.
"What' there coins to be for dinner?
Uow soon wlll it be ready T" inquired the
furnished lord of the manor.
The lady, who usually volunteered the
menu with housewifely pride, hesitated
strang-ely and then smiled her most pro
pitiating; smile
"You know, dear, it's wash day," she
said.
The Boss looked bewildered. He could
not for the moment make the connection.
"Don't we get any dinner 7" lie asked
dolefully.
"Oh, yes, of course, only, you see, there
was so much roast beef left from last
night and Mary ha so much to do with
getting extra meals for the laundress and
all that and macaroni and cheese is so
nice, and there' romalne"
The Soss broke In upon her fluttering
lncoherency. "Oh, all right; I understand." he said.
'I had cold roast beef for lunch, but I
guesa I can stand soma mora."
His wife breathed a sigh of relief. The
Boss not Infrequently surprised her by un
expected good nature and took a certain
pride in doing- so.
Now he proceeded to compliment his wife
on a new way of doing- her hair which she
had spent several hour devising-, and "all
went merry as a marriage bell" through
the warmed over repast.
A became a wife, the lady uttered words
of encouragement now and then which
were calculated to cheer the Boss through
the meager meat.
"You iee, dear, a small roast costs us
tl.49," she explained, "but it we make It
do for three meals two dinner and lunch
vhy, we're not spending any more money
than cn any other day."
'I ee," said the Bosa bravely. "I'm
glad to hear that you're getting some
notion ol economy I never expected it."
It waa a new phase which several year
of married life bad not revealed and It
rejoiced the Bona' soul, as well as his
poeketboek.
The lady smiled. It was pleasing to be
ccmpllmented even upon the homely quality
of domestic economy. When a woman is
sure of her graces anyhow, she never re-
tnts being told ot her virtues.
With thl and other reflection the Boss
was dawdling over hi coffee and cigar
ette, when there wa a clatter of steps up
the basement stairway, and the rather
flushed face of Mary, the handmaiden,
appeared In the door.
"Mr. Mann, may I speak to you a mo
ment?" "Come In, Mary." called tha lady ad
dressed, and the maid appeared, casting
upon the Boss, however, a glance which

Mis Margaret Angltn, th well known
actress. Is th daughter of th Hon. Timothy
Warren Angtin, and waa born in Ottawa,
Can., in 1876, when h father was speaker
of the Dominion ot Canada Parliament
According to Lewis C. Strang, "In this
connection a peculiar Interest attachea It
self to Miss Anglln't birth, for that Im
portant event In her life occurred in the
speaker's chamber ot the lloube of Parlia

Abbey In Toronto and In the convent ot
Sault Recollet, Montreal. In spite of
treng family opposition sh cam to New
York and studied for the stage under the
direetlon of the late Nelson Wheatcroft.
Her brilliant career is told in brief In
"The Actor's Birthday Book" in this way:
"Sh made her debut, the season of 1S94
93, as Madeline West in 'Shenandoah, ap
pearing on tour the season following with
Rholt's repertoire company. She then spent
t. season with James O'Neill, playing Oplilla
In 'Hamlet," JuU in 'Richelieu,' Virginia
in 'Vlrginlua' and Mercedes in 'Monte

seemed to

withdraw.
The Bosa understood the hint, but curi
osity prompted him to ignore It.
"Mrs. Mann, I have a little explanation
to make," began Mary, with her most for
mal manner, which waa very elaborate. In
deed. "You'll remember you spoke to me
about having the cold roast beef for din
ner this evening"
"Yes, yes. Mary," Interrupted the Boss'
wife, soothingly, "that was all right and it
was very good."
"Yes, ma'am," Mary rejoined respect
fully, "but that's not all I have to say. I
have a little confession to make. I thought
I'd wait till tomorrow, when th taste ot
th cold roast beef was out of your mouth,
but I'd rather have it out at once."
The Boss sat up straight and displayed
the keenest Interest as Mary continued:
"You'll mind me saying there would not
be enough for the laundress' dinner and
asking you 'What shall I get for Mrs. Bul
llvanr 'Get anything she wants,' said
you. So I asked her what sh would have
to eat, fully expecting she would eay 'pork
chops,' as she always does, but Instead
she said, 'I think I'll be choosing a nice
steak.' "
Mary paused. "Tou ee, ma'am, that
placed me in a very embarrassing position.
It didn't seem to me to be th right thing
for her to be eating steak and you cold
meat, but I couldn't withdraw my offer.
You'll see the steak on th butcher's bill,
of course, but I thought I'd make a little
explanation."
Caution and a righteous anger strov for
mastery In th countenance of th Bosa
wife.
Th Boss' face worked convulsively.
"8ay, Mary," ha said, "if Mra. Bulllvan
