A Widow’s Thanksgiving Dinner ona Trawn—tIn Giving Food to the Hun- gry «a Kentuckian Finds Out His Brother's Death. “Thad a remarkable and strange experience on atrain ou Thanks giving Day,” said Mr. Willis Forbes of Louisville at the Laclede. “I was coming from the western part of the state, towards St. Louis. Among the passengers and sitting just across the aisle from Ine Was % woman} dressed in mourning. _ With her were two remarkably pretty little gills. It was evident that they were poor. The children were well be-} haved, however, aud their mother was plainly a woman of refinement. After awhile one of the children ask- ed for something to eat and the mother gave her a swall piece of bread. The child, a pretty little sunny haired girl of about 4 years, asked for some butter. I did not bear the reply her mother gave, but the little oue whimpered a little and taunched her dry morsel in silence. Presently the older child also asked for food. The mother took out a part of aswall loaf and gave her a part of it, putting the rest carefully away ina basket. A little later the older child said: “Mamma, isn’t this Thanksgiving Day?” “Yes, daughter.” “Well, then, why can't we have} some turkey? The bread wasn’t enough, and I'm so hungry. I thought people always had turkey and nice things on Thanksgiving.” “Mother wishes she could give you something nice daughter, but she can't.” “Why, Mamma?” At this the mother’s eyes filled with tears and with an eudible sob the drew the child to her bri whispered to her. After the child said again. “Haven't you got avy more money mamma?” By this time there was a great big lump in my throat. Here was 2 woman and two children starv- ing and penniless on Thanksgiving Day. She had eaten nothing her- self and was keeping her last crust for her youngest child. I never felt so mean and selfish in my life and I determmed to help them. But how? I could not think of approaching that refined woman with alms. At the next station boys came to the windows offering lunches and fruit for sale, and upon seeing them the ying for a piece of pie which one of the boys temptingly held up before the win- dow, while the older one looked longingly but said nothing The mother attempted to attract the lit- tle one’s attention, bravely trying to keep back her own tears. Then I went out of the door, and seeing a boy with a well filled basket I bought all he had and ordered him to take it to the lady and give it to her. I stood in the door and watched. The boy had not waited, as the train was moving, and at first the lady scarce ly knew what to make of it. Then I heard her say: “God has told some kind friend to send us a Thanksgiving dinner,” and the delight of those children was worth a gold mine to me. Soon afterwards I made friends with the older girl and asked her name. To my surprise it was the same as ny Own. “Where do you live?” I asked. “We did live in Oklahoma, but past and a moment little one commenced ¢ |Henry Clews. Mr jat which jfrieud Dr. MES.
